"IAY" I Appreciate You Gift from Jessica

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to share with you a gift that I received from my partner on "IAY" I Appreciate You group on facebook.  Each month we are partnered up with someone and we send them a gift to tell them how much we appreciate them.  Most of the time you do not know who your partners are.  They are people you have never met.  This is nothing like a RAK as you know who you are sending to in the RAK.  Anyone interested in joining our group, please ask to be approved into the group.  No one will be turned down.  It is a group with a bunch of wonderful and caring ladies.  I just wanted to share the video of what I received.  I just recently joined and this is my first month with the group.  I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.  I did have to hold back the tears but I think you'll get the intentions.  Thanks for watching and enjoy.

I made this layout a while back when we adopted our newest family member "Corduroy". These are pictures of the entire family meeting him for the first time. I used cardstock that has a woodgrain pattern, patterned paper from My Story (I think), some cut out flowers from patterned paper, bling, ribbon, and popped up certain areas to give it more dimension. He is our bundle of energy and loves to chew everything up...lol! I hope you enjoyed this and would love to hear some comments. I will be doing a blog candy giveaway for this hop. You must be a follower and leave a comment. I will use random.org to pick the winner. The draw will take place on August 26th as I will be away for surgery until then. You only have until August 25th to leave a comment. I will announce the prize and winner on the 26th. In the meantime please check out the websites of some of our sponsors:

Lindy's Stamp Gang Haul

Hello Everyone,

I finally did it.  I have hummed and ha'd over whether I should consider purchasing the Lindy's Stamp Gang products as I already have over 75 bottles of Tattered Angels Glimmer Mists but with all that I was hearing I knew it had to be done.  I have yet to try them out yet as they only arrive about two weeks ago and have been busy with many other deadlines.  But I wanted to share with you the products that I did get.  I purchased quite a few of their "try me" kits and then also purchased one of their newest lines of Starburst sprays.  I also purchased 2 stamp sets from them.  One for me and one for a friend as an IAY(I appreciate you) gift.  If you haven't tried these products please check them out.  You won't regret it!!!!  Their website is:  Lindy's Stamp Gang.  Without further adieu, here are the photos.






Thanks again for stopping by.  Comments always welcome and encouraged!

Artsy Addicts Tea Party Tag Swap

Hello Everyone,

Thank you for stopping by and checking out all the projects that were made by the people in Group #7 for the Tea Party Tag Swap hosted by Artsy Addicts.  I must say that I love each and every single one of these tags!  I may eventually compile them into a journal for friends that inspire me.  We'll see, it may be a while but I'll work on it and in the future I will post what I have done with them.  I may just hoard them...lol!  Lord knows I definitely know how to hoard everything to do with paper crafting...hahaha.  Now on with the tags.

This one was made by myself and the video is also posted on my YouTube channel which I will post below.



This one is from Angee Lee Butler and her website is:  www.angeeleebutler.com


This one is from Betty and her YouTube channel is:  booper216


This one is from Kerry Duff.  Her YouTube channel is:  duffer9904 and her website is www.stampersbest.com


And last but absolutely not least this one is from Tonya Gibbs.  Her YouTube channel is: Psychomoms and her blog is:  www.psychomoms.com


Thank you everyone for stopping by.  A big thank you and shout out goes to Karlas001 for being the gracious hostess in sending these out to everyone.  It was definitely a big job!  Also thanks goes to Marion Smith for being the creator of the wonderful Artsy Addicts Group on facebook.  Without her these swaps and support from everyone wouldn't be possible.   Please feel free to leave a comment.  They are always welcome and encouraged.
