New Layout

I know I have been missing for some time.  The thing is, I  haven't had any time to scrap and when I do, I just don't have the inspiration like I use to.  It's like it has all been sucked out of me.

Well, today I just started looking for ideas and came across this sketch from Page Maps and I really liked it for the baby book I'm working on. 

I hope to do more.  So, I'm going to start pushing myself again and try to get some challenges done.  I use to love doing them once upon a time ago.

Sad News

As you all know that we love our dogs and have a house full of them.

Well yesterday out of the blue Foster pasted away. He was around 7 years old and was a health dog compared to his sister Precious who has all the health problems. We would never thought that she would have out lived him. I was a very sad evening for everyone.

He will be missed dearly, but he's in a much better place now.

Always an Adventure

Here is another cute lo for Lisa's baby book. I am almost done with her first son's book. I know I have been working on it for a long time now. Plus, she is already sending me her second son's picture and I am excited to start working on those.

These last few months have been even harder, since I am searching for a job and going to interviews. I really did not think that it would be this hard to get one. I am going on 4 months of looking and have maybe 15 or more interviews already but can not land a job. I even went to one this morning and it was a small company with very low pay and no benefits. At least DH has those with his job. I just need a paycheck to cover my end of my bills. I am running low on money and I don't feel it is right to ask DH to pay for my bills. I know were married and all but he has enough on his plate as it is. I can already tell he starting to stress over money. He thinks we are going to eat through all his savings and what if something really bad happens and we need that money. I tell him he always worries to much. Something will come before we get to that. Or at least that's what I keep telling myself.

Well I better let you go. I don't think you want to hear me complain. ):

Have a wonderful day,

Happy Easter Everyone

It's a Girl Baby Book

Hi all,

Well I completed another order for a baby book. This was a very simple one. Not very much detail. The hardest part was making the cover. I could not find one in green and when I did, it did not have enough page protector and the damn screw's would not come out. What the heck? So, I had to cover a blue one and that was more work then what the whole book was worth. At least she gave a really good tip. I was VERY grateful for that. Its a good thing I didn't tell her I had to cover it. Lol

The carousel horse and the stork were digi image found some where online that were in my stash. I'm sorry I could not give the credit to who they belong but I do love them, for whoever created them.

Well, I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Saturday was a good day for DD and I but Sunday was an emotional roller coaster. It is very hard when DH is out of town and your trying to raise his daughter by yourself. So, hopefully after yesterday everything is back in order. He should be back on Saturday and I think we all cannot wait for that. Two weeks of training for work is hard. Yes, we all need a break from each other every once in a while, but I cant do it for that long.

Have a wonderful day and many more to come,

Chelsea's Birthday Card

Happy St. Paddy’s Day

Top o' the morning to ye. Do ye have any plans for St Paddy's Day? I will be looking for a job and celebrating in my heart.

A couple of items

Hi everyone,

I keep promising y'all some serious posting but Fail on the follow through. This time there are no promises just a fun little posting. Maybe I will keep it up....Maybe I won't. You will have to come back to make sure I stay on my game.

This is another page for Lisa's baby book that I'm working on for her.

I love the colors in this card and the stamp is just to cute. It is another one from Paper Smooches and so is the one in the lo.

I will try to get my other lo's posted.

xoxo,

Del

Bird day Card

Sorry about the picture. I took it with my phone, so I didn't have to pull out the big camera.

I have to say that I just love these new stamps by Paper Smooches. The bird is right up my alley and the card is an old kit that was purchased a long time ago from Keepsake Trends. I've been trying to use my old stash with the new one. After setting up my room, I realized that I have way to much stuff and need to start using what I have instead of buying so much.

Enjoy your day!!!

10 Years and 1 Year

I cannot believe that today is 10-years that DH and I have been together, not only that is our 1-year anniversary, since we got married. Do not get me wrong this past year has been the hardest of them all for the two of us. We have been put through lots of trials and some that we did not give up on. Even though it has been very hard and still trying to over come them, we are happy. May it continue on.

I think DD and I will head to the rodeo since she has no school and there is nothing else to do in Marana. Lol, its rodeo day down here and how do you like that, they get off from school just for that. We were never so lucky back in the day.

Have a wonderful day everyone.
