Its Monday



Howdy crafters,

Lastnight I was looking through some old photos of my Grandparents and came across this picture. This was taken on their wedding day back in the 40's. I LOVE this picture. My grandparents looked so happy and so in Love. I decided I wanted to frame it but wanted something vintage to put the picture in. I found the back ground paper and thought it would be perfect. Then I came across some OLD buttons that grandmother had, flowers and ribbon and decided to make a tag. I have to admit this framed picture of grandma and grandpa is one of my favorite things. Who knew that 3.00 in products could make such a wonderful frame...

Thanks for looking at my project today. Hope you have a super day!

Hugs,

Being Thankful


Hi every one!


What a better day than today to be filled with happiness! After all its a day of rest after an oh so ever busy week! I am very thankful to have God, family and friends not to mention a job....Even though sometimes we seem to take things for granted sometimes you need to stop and be thankful for the things we have and the special relationships we have built. With that being said I woke up thinking about a very good friend whom is going through a nasty divorce. She has been the back bone of her husbands military career for 25 years. She put her wants and needs above anyone elses. Now that he has retired, he's decided he wants someone different, something new. I feel so bad for her. I have watched her agonize over the what if's, what could have been... He left her, their 7 year old son for a 21 year old. Anyway she has been on my mind alot the past few months. I woke up this morning wanting to do something to make her smile if only for a minute. We spent a girl day not to long ago and she started telling me how she wanted to change her room and bathroom to a different color. Browns, blues, tourquoise colors. I decided to take this 18x20 canvas I had laying around and do something with it. I headed to M's and found the perfect deco paper to match her room, came home and this is what I came up with. She recently went with her family to the beach for the weekend and has a fantastic picture of her intire family. I think this would be a great place for that photo. I sure hope she likes it!

Take today and hug your family and tell them how much they mean to you..
Happy Crafting,

CRAZY MONDAY

Hello fellow bloggers,
I must admit Mondays are always crazy! I left hom at 7:30 am and just getting home at 9:00 PM... We have a student in our office and I really dislike training students. It seems like you get ONE good one and 10 bad ones. {This one is just UGH} So, I decided a few weeks ago to continue my eduaction. So I enrolled in a couple courses. I also took a second job two days a week in a Orthopedic ER. I started last Fridat after I got off my real job. Lets just say I now only have ONE free day a week and man ole man am I'm pooped today! The alarm went off at 5:30 and it took all I could to get out of bed and get ready for work. My big plan this week is to study on my lunch hour, work on a few cards and Keep a good attitude and stay positive. After all who could complain with a GREAT Husband, kids, friends....Thank you Lord for all the blessings you've given to me!!!!!. Hope everyone has a super night!
Hugs, "T"
