I FOUND IT!!


My paper piercer! Yeah Im a dork and yeah it made me super happy! So I had a few thank you notes I needed to make and I had all day to make them. My mom was even in town and wanting to work on cards today but boy I just wasnt into doing anything. I know it was because the kiddo's were home and now I have nowhere "sacred" to craft and I hate dragging it all out on the dining room table.


Are there any other mom's out there that just can't seem to get into crafting with the kids around? It just started when I became a single mom but I just can't get into it when they are home, up, running around, wanting my attention, wanting fed or I'm cleaning up after them.

Anyway.......

I did get my thank you cards done tonight when they went to bed. They were pretty simple (as is everything I do these days).

I used the yellow sheet's from CTMH that my mom gave me today and the pattern paper from Route 66, also the stamp from Library Pockets (CTMH). Got my hands on the new catalog today too. Ofcourse I found some things in there I just gotta have! LOL

Christmas Cards Done!!


I had a few hours to myself today, so instead of cleaning, I got my Christmas cards done!!! It was real fun trying to find everything. They arn't the best in the world, but they work!! I got the inspiration for them from a card I saw on TwoPeas. Then once I got to looking at them, I realized they look alot like the Christmas card I just got in the mail from my friend Marty! LOL

Anyway, I couldnt find any pop dots, so I ran out to Joann's and got some today. Im sure I"ll find my stash now that I bought new. I also could not find my paper peircer, as I wanted to add a brad to them. Oh well.....used all CTMH paper and stamps.
