My Crazy Awful Beautiful Life

You Always Know How to Make my Heart Smile :)

I love love love this card! While I was on skype with my hubby yesterday he informed me that he likes my cards especially when they are for him lol! I havent made him a card in quite some time so today I decided why not. Gonna send it off in his goodie box next week with a bunch of other stuff.

Anyways, I used a pretty awesome sketch from Mojo Monday, go check it out!


Now with that done, I think it is bed time! I am worn out from playing vet. with my dog, she stepped on something and had gushing blood from her foot, poor thing is still limping (And im petrified of blood, not good for me.) Baby kicked alot today, i really think he is starting to realize his daddy's voice, every time I get off skype with Jeff, lil Tyler starts
kicking up a storm, I think that is his way of telling daddy to come home. :) 11 weeks til I get to be in my hubby's arms, and around 12 before baby is due, according to the EOD. :)

Until I get Home



This song is a real tear jerker, I absoultely love his talent and voice though. Really hit home with me, 3 months til RnR and 9 til he back home for good, I cant wait.

Today Im finally getting into the dr so I can get a referral for my new OBGYN, I am so ready to start getting check ups on baby Tyler again, havent had one since May 16th. Hopefully get something crafty accomplished today and talk to my hubby but we will see what today has in store for me. :)

Operation Write Home : Day 2

Im not a fan of this card, but its not all that bad either, just went completly different than what I had in mind, maybe its cause im tired.. that could prolly be it. :)

The challenge for Day two is Stipes, pretty simple :)

"Be good and if you can't be good, be stylish" - Anna Wooten

I absolutely love this card! I got this stamp at the National Scrapbook Convention here in Arlington last month and have just now gotten around to using it, and I must say, It is a blast to use!! :) I did this card for a challenge over at Card Patterns, I love the sketch, even though I didnt follow it exactly, I got inspired by it!

Home Is Where the Heart Is

I am in the scrappy mood tonight, but Im getting tired from being up way too early.. hoping to get a couple more things done before I call it a night, we shall see what happens :)

Anyways, I started off with a whole different idea for this card.. and then wham! I went a whole different direction with it. I decided to use this card for a challenge over at Our Creative Corner, the challenge this week is Your Style.. and I figured well I usually end up changing my cards around when I try to "free play", so that is totally my style, not to mention my love for pearls and these colors just make me happy, so I totally say this card is My Style.

Sweet Memories

So Jeff and I had planned on using these papers for our wedding invites before the wedding got pushed up due to deployment, but I absolutely love this line by Basic Grey :) Still trying to decide which pictures I want to put in here, the reason it is still blank, but the rest of the book is complete :)


Dad : Father's Day Present for my dad

I made this album for my dad for Father's day, Ihavent seen him yet so I havent been able to give it to him, plus I am still trying to find pictures, since he is stubborn and never wants to smile in a pic :)

Operation Write Home: Day 1

I found this through a friend and fell in love with the idea. My husband is overseas at the moment and I'm really getting to see how many soldiers go without, so many soldiers get nothing the whole time they are over there, I send a ton of goodies in my boxes, but Im sure getting something that is directly sent to them lightens their day that much more. As soon as I finish up this 30 Day challenge, I will start making Christmas cards to send over to the troops, Ive been meaning to do the Christmas cards for 3 years now, maybe Ill finally get off my butt and get them done before baby comes and consumes my crafty time :)
