Hello Everyone, First I would like to just send out a prayer for all of those effected by the storms yesterday. I am in eastern Tn and we did get the storms but thankfully we did not have any of the tornadoes come our way. God I pray that you are with all of the families that went through this devastation. Secondly, Congrats to all the lucky winners of the E2!!!! I have to admit I am so jealous!!! One day I will win blog candy I can just feel it!

So, the Easter Holiday is over. It was wonderful Church was awesome and I have to tell you how good God is!! This may not seem like much to some but I think it is for me. There is a new song out by Casting Crowns and I wasn’t sure of the name but I have been hearing once or twice on the radio and I loved it, just loved it and had just told my husband Saturday night that I wanted to know the name and get that song. Well Sunday morning at the beginning of church our pastor said he had a video for us all to watch…it was that song!!!! Oh how I cried and cried and worshipped the Father. It is a wonderful song called O Glorious Day. If you get a chance check it out!! We had a nice dinner with my parents and a small egg hunt with our kideos. Here are some pictures The first picture is my 12 yr old Daughter Malia and then my 7 yr old Son Matthew!! They have so much of my heart, but the rest of it belongs to the man in the next picture. Here is my beloved husband Kevin!! He is trying

  Since I am going to talk about a Disney layout, why not have my font be Disney!!! This makes me chuckle somewhat because I have a friend that absolutely has to be the biggest Disney fan I know and I am steadily thinking of her while I am writing up this post. Hi Stacey!!! ( This is all I can do of the font, I cannot even read it myself! lol!) Anyway I am trying to get my Disney album done and so I worked on another layout and was successful in completing it. I have to say that this is the first time I created a Disney layout using my cricut with a Disney cartridge. I can definetly see how these carts can get somewhat frustrating. What I found was that I had to do alot of trial and error cuts to figure out my setting and then there were some things that I just couldn’t cut too small. The positive to these carts are that the characters are so true to life ( or movie) My Lightening and Mater really look like Lightening and Mater. I love it. I think they are so adorable!! They di

Good Afternoon crafters!!  It is a lovely day in Tn. In fact we are at 82 degrees right now!! I had a wonderful weekend. Church was once again amazing. I wasn’t sure if I would ever be able to say that about church again but God is good and we have found a wonderful place of worship. So I wanted to enter the easter blog hop that was going last week and I missed it :-( but I got a card done anyway and I wanted to share it with all of you today. Here it is…    I used a sheet of  white bazzill cardstock for the base of the card then I centered  a sheet of patterned paper from Nana’s kids. Then also centered a piece of yellow colormates paper and then ran it through my cuttlebug using the divine swirls folder. Of course I had to ink the edges of the yellow :-)!!!  The title came from MTC using the boyzrweird Font I really like that font alot !!!                  I used my create a critter cartridge for this card. I wanted to do something for the Lord but at the same time somethi

Hello Fellow scrappers and card makers, I have a niece that is turning 7 on April 6th and being that we live pretty far apart ( I’m in Tenn. and she is in Florida.) I wanted to send her a card with some cold cash that she can use to purchase whatever her little heart desires.  So here it it…. I was so excited to do this card because I had just recently purchased the cartridge Wild Card and I was eager to use it. I went ahead and picked the first card on the cartridge and started figuring out how to add my own touch to the project .   I absolutely love this cartridge!! It has so many different cards on it along with a plethora of images, icons, phrases and much more. You have to make sure and make your envelopes first to ensure a good fit for your card. I created the envelope at 3 3/4 in. the card was the same size. Here is a photo of both.                    I added some strips of patterned paper to the front sides of the card and then I was ready to add my die cut. My

Hello, I am putting my hand to the plow in the world of blogging again. I have had this blog for awhile just haven't been able to really utilize it . For those of you who know this blog ( that is not that many at the moment, but that will change!!) you know that I used to design files for different cutting machines. Well, I found that I was designing files more than I was scrapbooking and forget about making a card for someone. I loved the machines and the files that are out there are awesome. I just found myself not scrapping as much as I would like. So...........I bought a Cricut expression!!!!!! I have to tell you at first I didn't think that I would like it. I sat in my craft room thinking that I had maybe made a mistake. Then after some time ( ok like 30 min. into playing around with the machine) I realized it was exactly what I was looking for. It is so easy and I hardly have to think at all. I love that I can design my layout and then pick some images that I would like o
