It's time for me to take some time away.

Hello all!! It's been a while since I posted, so I figured I would leave you all a quick note. Life has been very crazy and time has been scarce. I need to reorganize my Home life before I can get to crafting again.

I will be back! But, for now I have to step aside. I wish you all a wonderful Easter and Happy Mother's Day!!

Love and Hugs,
Jacqui

P.S. My SU! website will not be available after this month. I have decided to discontinue the service.

It's Started!!

So, I found a black waterbottle, and just couldn't leave it alone!  I had to start playing with the Decor Element Sheets, and My Big Shot... here's what it looks like, so far:

The Kids have been busy, too!

My youngest two were checking out all the great creations from the talented Late Night Stamper's Group, and made the following cards- (they are donating these to Noah's Ark, for their upcoming fund raiser!)

My First Build-A-Bear Card!

Ok, so I Love this set.  But, haven't been able to put anything together.  Every time I go by my stamp room I look at this set and try and figure something to do with it.  I was bound and determined!!  I finally got it, my Build-a-Bear block is OVER!!  And I LOVE the results!!  I hope you do too!
