Birthday Wishes

 Hello again!   I have been making a few cards and working on my scapbooking.  So I have another card to share.  I decided to use the sketch from Deconstructing Jen.  this week's sketch is #91.

I used Crumb Cake and Rich Razzleberry Cardstock and Floridal District paper pack.  The Stamp image is from Verve.  I love the Rich Razzleberry color and am trying to find more ways to use it.  Such a pretty vibrant color.  Super cute color.

Well thanks for stopping by!

Wishing You The Best


Hello peeps. Hope you are all having a great week. Mine is both good and bad.  Good because my kids, my hubby and family are doing well.  Good because finally after 10 years of annoyance, lack of mortgage payments and a slue of other things and after going to court, I got the judgement I wanted against my ex.  FINALLY...I would say a decade is long enough!   Now I can move forward...sell the old house.  Yippie!  I am so excited!  Well I shouldn't talk to soon, he has 30 days to vacate...so once that step is done...then it is smooth sailing!

Why was this week bad?  Well I guess it was a bad day...not a bad week.  I will let this person sour one day but no more.  Nothing annoys me more than someone accusing me of something I didn't do, then in a round-about-way call me a liar.  for the most part I work with awesome people and the people I work with and have worked with for 11 years know I do my job with integrity and work hard at helping people.  I need to not waste emotion on those that think they know everything and even though they have no authority think they are "the boss".  URG...!!!!  I am very thankful though that my managers, most of my co-workers and owners that I work with know that I do my job well and am very honest,and am very proud of the work I do.   That one that may have a different opinion well...(fill in the blank).   And I have to say that I am glad I am the type of person that saves all my work emails and I had emails to PROVE I was not lying...even though I didn't need them in the eyes of my boss and manager.

Okay..now that I have finally finished venting I have a card to share today!  This week is my last week for being a Design Team member for Cardabilities.  I have loved being a Design Team Member, but now I have other commitments  and and things I want to focus on!  Anyway, this is week is sketch #70.  It is a super duper cute sketch!

I made mine using Crumb Cake  and Olive Cardstock. I used some left over CTMH pattern paper I still had for the top and the "ribbons".

This week I have also taken the plunge and started my version of Project Life.  I have not actually purchased a specific project life kit.  I may in the future but since I am still playing and deciding what I want to do I am just kind of making it up as I go.  I will go back and do all of January and February,  but I did start with this week for my first layout...so it is a work in progress. Maybe when I finish I will take a photo and share.  We will see. I have been having fun searching blogs for others who do project life.  I have seen some great inspiration!

Well I am off to Weight Watchers.  I did really well the first few months last year when I started in March 2012.  Lost 17.6 lbs.  Just .4 lbs from my goal.  Then I went on vacation and then well I stopped tracking and caring. So I gained 8 lbs. back.  I started back a few weeks ago and am now going down again.  I love WW and it really works if you follow through with tracking!  That is all I can say TRACK your food.  Track what you eat and be accountable.  When you do...you lose.  This week I did have a few treats. I was still within my points but I didn't get as much exercise this week as I have been getting so...we shall see.

So...until next time...have a good one!
