it's hump day!

it's a scrappy kind of day! I need to get started, motivated, what have you! I just need to get started!
here's a LO I did yesterday:

Off I go to get started on today's to-do list!

easy does it!

     Another month has passed by so very quickly! I didn't do much today. I did some scrapping and finished a Sketchy Thursday LO as I was inspired and motivated by Diana and Lisa over on the blog post for yesterday's challenge! Thanks ladies! I had fun with a few different techniques like the flags and the wavy title. I used punches and bling, buttons and chipboard!

A busy weekend it looks like with our church's Fall Festival tomorrow where I am the CD player person for the cake walk!  and Sunday is church for service and Circle of Friends class. Then of course there's football! I hope to get some scrapping done in between all that! LOL Have a great and blessed weekend!

London Tea Room cupping!

Lynn and I went to the London Tea Room last night for a tea cupping! It was a talk about various tea varieties and sampling those teas as well. The talk also revolved around the health benefits of tea. It was a ton of fun! Lynn and I had a blast!

So here's the LO I did for the Chinese Whispers on Club CK:

scrappy day!

     How was the weekend for everybody?! I say that like people are reading this! mine was fabulous I must say! Saturday was a nothing day and Sunday was busy! We went to church where God is working big time! then we skedaddled home to meet up with Josh and his dad for the Cardinals/Cubs baseball game! Mike got the tickets last minute at Boeing. We had great seats and my energy level wasn't too bad. It was an awesome game! The Cardinals won! It was their last home game of the season. I hopefully will be able to scrap it soon. So all in all it was a busy, busy day but in a positive way!
     So besides blogging, this is just a scrappy kind of day - it's really nice so the windows are open with a nice breeze coming through the house, I am working on a LO and have ideas for a few more. Now how many I'll actually get done is the question of the day! I'm gonna get to work!

It's Friday!

      I don't know why I am excited it's Friday. I mean I don't work outside the home any more and I can pretty much do whatever I want, whenever I want! I do try and stay productive at home: dust, sweep, run and unload the dishwasher...you know, stuff like that. I look forward to the scrappy challenges every week and I read alot. So I did a LO today for Sketchy Thursdays and Frosted Designs. These are the only sites I usually do challenges from. This sketch was fun! I liked making a mess with the white paint! I couldn't find a paintbrush so I used a piece of jute/twine and ran it back and forth in the paint! The cardstock is from Archiver's, the dotted stamp is from Prima Marketing, the white paint is from Adirondack and for the stamp I used Versa Color.Everything else is misc. from my stash. Thanks to Natalia from Sketchy Thursdays for this week's inspiration and motivation! Everybody's LOs are simply awesomeness!
    No big plans for the weekend. I may try riding my bike again but we'll see. We have church Sunday and then of course there's football!

one fine day

I did a layout today for Frosted Designs and the #4 challenge at Club CK! I really wasn't motivated but as soon as I started scrapping the happy bug bit me! Scrapping is truly therapy for me. It helps me feel productive and happy that I'm telling a story for generations to come! This challenge was awesomeness! Thanks!

I can't post the LO I did for the Chinese Whispers on Club CK until "the reveal!"

cold coffee...

Yesterday went for my 3rd infusion of M.S. medicine and it went well. just a little dizzy and lightheaded when it was all done. Got signed up for Chinese Whispers on Club CK awhile back and finished the LO last night and emailed it to group head peep this morning. With that said I will post it after "the reveal!" I'm nervous for some reason...I guess it's just the fact that this was my first group thingy! It was fun though!
My coffee is cold! ahhhhhh! Since I'm getting around better and have more energy, I drove DS to school then hit Starbucks before coming home and doing my quiet time with the Lord! He is good and His timing is of course perfect! The scripture at the top of the page for today's devotional was Psalm 94:19 "when my anxiety was great within me, Your consolation brought me joy". I had just found this verse last week in the Moms In Touch prayer group! It is so true that God works in mysterious ways! Yay God!
Off to work on die cuts for the October swap! Have a blessed day!
