October Breast Cancer Awareness

In the past few months so much has been happening around me so I haven't been on in awhile. Everyone's lives are busy,hectic and full of everyday surprises. So I wanted to let you know I am still here :) October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and it is something I am close to since my mother is a survivor and this means I have to watch myself and my daughter pretty closely. I sell Thirty One and love their products! I made these cute little wristlets with Thirty One and if you are interested in ordering one please let me know or go to my website to make your own :) I want to celebrate you and your journey! Have a great month! Tawnya -- www.mythirtyone.com/payton3

Pemberley Paper Pack Close to my Heart Crop

This weekend we cropped at my home :) It is an open crop once a month so you can work on any projects you would like to finish. "use your stash!"
I decided to work on Pemberley it is a paper pack all laid out by Close to my Heart.

My good friend Debra Thompson came over and showed us how to put together this really cute card.

USE your Stash!

This paper pack I bought from CTMH over 6 yrs ago! I finally put it all together! The crop I went to a few weekends ago inspired me to start putting my paper packs together. :) so the dining room table is FULL of supplies to finish up!

Retreat Weekend in Gainsville Texas! WHAT FUN :)

Thank you Melissa Robinson for a fabulous time! I heart you!

Secret Sister gift! Amanda you rock!

One of the gifts I gave my Secret Sister using Tim Holtz inks! Inside is FULL of Ribbon :)

Art work by Amanda Canale isn't she AWESOME! Love this idea I am going to scraplift this for sure!

A kit I bought a few years ago at the GASC I hate kits like these where you have to cut out all the pieces... guess that's why it took me so long to finish but it turned out rather cute I think!

My Secret Sister Amanda :) Thank you for making the retreat so much FUN and all my sweet gifts!
