Count-down

Good morning...this is the day to begin counting down for the big announcement.  Come on back on Thursday, September 1st for the big news.

Also, it's my personal count down for going home...spent two months with my son and family helping out and now it's time to go home and get back to my own Cricut Expression and crafting as the holidays coming up.  It has been a good 2 months...was able to spend time with my son since he came home from his 2nd deployment  to Iraq in March, 2011.  And share time with the granddaughters...who I love very dearly.

I'm hoping you all have a good week.  Hugs to all.

A Happy Birthday Mat and Title Freebie

It has been another week and I've been busy with working on files for the store and helping out here in Kansas with the family.  It is count down time now....as of right now, it's 5 days 'til I go home...yaaay.

This mat can be sized to use as a topper on a card, or create a card by resizing it to a card size.  Or enlarge it to a scrapbook page for either a 8x10 or 8x11 or 12x12 layout.  Along with the mat, I created the title to use in other birthday layouts or cards

Happy Birthday mat and title (no picture available .)

Another Canvas Art DIL created

Good morning everyone...I am posting a canvas art here on my blog to share with u all what my DIL had created this past weekend, using a canvas and her Cricut.

The web, spider and lettering was created on her Cricut.  She painted the canvas with black first, than paint a crackle paint over the first layer, creating the 'old look' .  Looks like a stone wall, or a weathered wall.  Than she sprayed a protective glaze over the entire canvas..she is planning to hang this on their front door for the Halloween season.

I am still creating files for school, including scrapbook kits.  Once I am finish I will post them on the blog to indicate what my inventory will be at the three stores I have inventory with.  Sometimes I feel so befuddled and unorganized with working the files and what to include in the files.  I keep plugging along though.

I hope all had a great weekend as we did here in Kansas.  And it's countdown for me---8 more days and I will be flying back to Alabama.

Later, and hugs to all.

Another card created by my daughter-in-law

My daughter-in-law created this Halloween card to add to her stash of cards.  She creates them and than when she needs a card, she has them to mail. 

Sorry for the background display of toaster, etc.  The kitchen counter is the best place to take a pic of the card ... and this morning, the sunlight was helpful too.

She ran a row of stitches around the edge of card, the font is her own printing, and I cut the ghost out for her on the Cricut Personal.

Thank you for stopping by to see what's going in the world of creating in the Smith's household.

Another week and a half and I am on my way to Alabama!

Hugs and see you tomorrow with another freebie.

Going home

Made my reservations to fly home ....August 31, 2011 leaving at 11:55 a.m., arriving in Huntsville around 4:15 p.m.  Back home to work on my creations using my own Cricut Expression.

It is a pleasant day today...no triple digit temps.  First day of school for the granddaughters and they both had a  good morning...only a half day today.  Hopefully, the 'child' in my oldest granddaughter's class will hold to her promise...that she will treat my granddaughter better.

Later.
  And Hugs to all.
