What I have been up to...

I have been doing some shopping (always fun) and I got lots of great paper from JoAnn Fabric at some great sale prices They have the 12x12 pads on sale buy one at 19.99 and get one free so I jumped on that and will be starting to use my new stuff within the next day or two but this is a long weekend and I have my 3 kids to tend to as well. I will be making cards every chance that I get and I have a couple of scrapbook pages I wanna do but I really wanted to find someone to crop with for those. Anyone wanna crop with me and you live around me....60804 zip code....please let me know.

Also, I will be starting school on 10.13.09 and I am so excited!!!! This is just the first goal on my list for myself as well as for my kids. One step at a time but I am determined!!!

My Etsy account

I finally did it!!!! I got the ball rolling and opened up my account with Etsy.com to sell my cards. I am still just starting and it does look a bit plan but I was having problems with my camera being too many pixels and ended up having to take all the pics off my cell phone. If anyone has an account with Etsy and has any pointers on how to make it look better please let me know.

Take a look....

I made this for my mother who turns 50 in a couple of weeks.

 
My youngest got her fall pictures in from daycare

These are a few of the pages that I have made so far. I am not too good at detailing the products or the names of the things that I use I will have to start getting hang of that. I started scrapbooking in March of 2009 and I was on a roll until a couple days before Mother's day when I decided to learn how to make cards and I then got hooked on making cards for my family and friends but I just started doing both and now I am having a blast...losing sleep but its worth it I think.

I hope my stuff is enjoyed.

Until next time.
