and I don't know what happened, but I did not have hardly any photos for week 9 and 10, so I combined them into 1 page...you just gotta do what you gotta do! mags did write a really sweet story about uncle mike, so I made a copy and put it in the sass decorated maya road envelope!

trying

to get back into the groove of creating and posting...worked on my PL this weekend...week 4 done and week 5 just about done...whew...maybe now I won't have to give it up! I also finished a LO featuring the ever present mags on valentine's day with her super cute heart hands!

I used a few silhouette shapes that I love.love...the cupid, the heart doily, and the hearts banner and my most recent studio calico kit which I also love.love. I also just recently received a load of buttons from A Flair for Buttons...they are amazing and totally fun and I used a wood grain heart one on this LO!

love

just seems like there are not enough hours in the day to get it all done...

CPS birthday cards

I needed to make some birthday cards for some students this week and went directly to CPS for inspiration! I used some Studio Calico kit scraps and my trusty Quickutz stars and cupcake for these...and a little twine or sparkly paper never hurts!

I have not fallen off the edge of the planet...just fallen into self preservation mode and that really isn't the time for sharing...but I have been crafting...

loving project life, but it is a little time consuming...I need to find some ways to make it faster or I'm not going to get much else done!

she...
is in the 4th grade
loves smash books and accessories
is a fashionista
