Christmas Cards for A Cause

I just found out about this from my BFF through Facebook:

"His name is Noah Biorkman. He lives in South Lyon, MI. He has been battling with this cancer for 2 1/2 years. He is not expected to make it until christmas and all he is asking for is Christmas cards. He and his family are celebrating Christmas this weekend. If you are interested, then either make or buy little Noah a Christmas card and send it to...... Noah Biorkman 1141 Fountain View Circle South Lyon, MI 48178"

I plan on getting a card made with hopes of making this little boy's day, if anyone would like to join me just send a card little Noah!


Other News:

I felt like CRAP today but went to school anyways, stubborn me, got mom to pick me up in m 2nd class cause I felt bad, but also had to go to the doctor to get the results from my blood work..... and we were hoping we'd find something, but the doctor told me I had one of the best hearts he has seen in a while, yay... but also ugh that sucks! I have to have an MRI to see whats wrong with me, hoping they find something, I just wanna know whats wrong with me! I've been having massive headaches and dizzy spells :(

I feel better now, the doctor still knows nothing from the blood work, going in for an MRI sometime soon I hope -Found out I only have to work Thursday this week, which sucks, but is also cool cause I have Wednesday off which I will spend making cards and such with mom, and then we have a craft show Saturday!!! Wooohoo!

Well that's it for tonight,I'll post some stuff I've been doing tomorrow :)

A Few Sets of Cards....

Well, mom and I are going to a craft show sometime this month and have alot of cards that we can sell... but we are also making sets of cards to see if they will sell! I've only gotten 2 sets done, one yesterday and one today, they are super simple, but I think they are pretty cute, lemme know whatcha think!!

The first set is a Christmas set:



The second is a Happy Birthday set:



Well I think that's it for a bit, I got frustrated with the Christmas set last night and had to give up on it til today... so I may get some more done today, if not tomorrow :)

Guilty Pleasure

...... Ok I am in love with this song, I honestly am not sure why, but I heard it a while back and have been listening to it since!! It's called "Guilty Pleasure" by Cobra Starship - I figured I'd add a video on here!!!!



Well I plan on getting some scrapping done this weekend, doing nada for Halloween.... a bit upset though, I went into orientation yesterday at my job (wooohoo) and well... the manager that told me to be there had the day off. I was kinda upset 'cause it was important to me and I knew I didn't have the wrong date... I dunno... well the other manager told me that she is sorry for wasting my time and that orientation will be next Tuesday, so I hope it turns out..... :)


Anyways, off to eat dinner

Crafty Sunday!

Well, so far I've only gotten 1 card done while scrapping with Mom today, but I have a ton of challenges I plan on getting done tonight after we watch a movie and eat some nachos, yum!

I spent FOREVER on this card but am really liking it!! I've decided this stamps new name is " The Girl Who Will Hold Anything" stamp due to the fact that we stick about everything in her hand, from the ladybug she comes with, to a pumpkin, and then presents so far, but mom and I have a ton more things to "stick" in her hand!!!

I was able to knock out three challenges with this card, woohoo!!

2 Red Bananas - Use the color red, have 3 buttons, and have a square.

Sunday Sketch and Stamp - A sketch

Pile it On - Use the colors Blue, Green, and Yellow and combine with another challenge.


And here's the Card!



These challenges were all fun and I enjoyed doing them!!


Ok off to watch a movie and eat dinner! Be back shortly with some more!

Lots of Stuff!

Well, its been a few weeks since I've posted and I've gotten a bit done!

A few weeks ago the Albuquerque Hot Air Balloon Fiesta started lasted a week... or maybe two, I honestly can't remember... getting old I guess haha!... anyways it was pretty awesome getting to see hot air balloons in the air every morning on the way to school! We also spent a Saturday morning watching them... they had some really cool ones... Darth Vader (by far the best although I didnt get to see it :(.... oh well), a giant lady bug sitting on a flower, a cow, penguin, bees, smokey the bear... and I could go on and on, but I won't!

Schools been ok... except the school has lost my transcript... that just makes me so happy... not! I keep telling my parents they better not make me start over again LOL! We had Wednesday and Thursday off this past week for Advisory meetings with our parents, I've got A's and B's except for one class... Math... and yea we didnt have a teacher for the first oh 6 weeks I'd say so we pretty much taught ourselves and I am not a good self teacher, but yea I have a C in there... I'll get it up though. Learned about a scholarship called the Lottery Scholarship... you can pretty much go to college for free if you have atleast a 2.5..... my 4.0 works good... and you have to obtain a 3.0 throughout all 4 years of college... so sounds pretty easy to me!!

Crafty stuff... hmmm... well I have been scrapping more... I enjoy it, I've gotten a few layouts done and a few cards, I'm spending some more time on them instead of just throwing them together....


Breast Cancer Month Card

( Well I did this for a challenge.. but totally forgot to post it... woohoo!)



Classy and Fabulous (Challenge over at Cuttlebug Spot )





Mom's First Christmas




Anniversary Card for the Parents... their anniversary is on Monday the 19th




A layout I did a while back....



So this morning before I picked up the bathroom I put Bobbie our bird in the shower and closed the curtain.... well I come back in a little later and open the curtain... guess who's back there... Kitty (a.k.a Snowball)!!!! I tried to get her out, but she was content on staying there staring at Bobbie.... so I took a picture of her :)



I think that's about it for now!

Hope everyone has a good weekend!
