This is a post I wrote last week...my blog has not been cooperating and posting any pictures until now! I thought I would share a few thoughts on the newest kit Cherry Blossom and then include the ramblings that were unpublished from the other day. Sorry if this is very confusing. The cards that I made with the kit were easy to make and turned out so cute--I can't wait to give this one to my mom! I stitched through the word Mom several times and stitched on the tiny banner paper after cutting it out. I think I used that AC Dear Lizzy banner on every page!!?? On the rabbit card, I cut a strip from the fabric in the kit and made it into grass and then stitched it at the bottom of the page and zigzag stiched the white dot onto the AC Dear Lizzy paper. Easy but fun! Well, it seems that I am still having trouble with the picture upload so I will share the rest of my gallery tomorrow when I have more patience. Be sure to check out the rest of the gallery and order this kit before it is gone. It is great!
Thoughts from the other day:
We have had rain for the the past day and a half and it has been beautiful. Since we hardly ever get rain, I love to see it come and freshen up the Spring that is already beginning to bloom around here. It is also a good excuse to dig out the rain coats, cute umbrellas, and rain boots for some splashing fun! It turned to snow this afternoon and got windy and cold and then is starting to stop, but even so I am cold and I had to turn up the heat and run our cozy little fireplace.
some things that made me smile today....
1. The afore mentioned rain/snow and donning all available rain gear to venture outside this morning
2. Caleb's lunchtime prayer for God to bless the food to our bodies, be with Halle at school, and please take care of Slinky dog and Hobie (our dog). He also saved out a chip for each person in our family including the 2 dogs-one real and one made of plastic-and wrapped them up in a napking to give to them later. so sweet.
3. sitting by the fireplace praying and praising the Lord for his goodness. There are so many things that are taken for granted daily.
4. digging through some older pictures and loving all the cherished memories that I have been a part of.
5. Catching up on the laundry after a crazy week with family and work!
6. finding time to scrapbook this week with the new Freehand Scraps kit-you will love it!
7. Another finish to a full and productive week. Looking forward to some family time tonight-we are planning something fun for this evening.
