To My Faithful Followers

I'm sure you've had to have noticed my lack of posting these past few months. As you know from reading my blog, I've had a lot of sickness in 2009 - like I've never experienced before. To add insult to injury, my hands have started to give out (too many stray pixels to capture : ). The doctor rumor is degenerative arthritis. Since I am a Christian, that means I'll just ask God to heal me and when He does - I'll give him the praise.

In the meantime, I need to rest my hands from designing / computer / piano. I will not be closing my blog because I want to come back. If I'm having a good day here and there, I'll pull something out of my collections of partially completed kits and gift you with some tidbits.

I'll miss you all so much. Your encouraging words and friendship these last couple of years have meant more to me than I could ever say.

Added to Life-Scrappers Today

I'm at the computer today. Rah-Rah!! It seems like forever. I had heard this flu was bad, but two and a half weeks of not wanted to do anything but sleep. Yuk! I can't stand not being able to accomplish something every single day. Here are a couple goodies that I just uploaded to my store at Life-Scrappers.

Here is the promised freebie. Since I've been working a lot with raffia lately, I thought I'd give you the first little wreath that I made. Just click the preview to download.

Talk to you soon!

Raffia Bow

As I've been working on my own personal designer toolbox, I decided to add this little to your collection. I've been in bed with the flu/pneumonia and playing with some raffia to scan to help pass the time. There will be more to come. Just click the preview to download. (Shadow on preview only)

Autumn Fest

Just because I couldn't go without giving one more thing for the month of October, here is the link to another SAS entry I did for the competition. I always loved the tricycle hayride. I am hoping to be back at the computer soon. This flu has knocked me down a lot more than I expected.

Fall Pumpkintime

The kit I've been promising - added yesterday to my store at Life-Scrappers. After being a part of the competition at Stone Accents Studio, I realized how great a coordinating color kit can be. Although I love all things vintage, there is also something great about pieces that can go with everything. So lately, I've been expanding my horizons and trying new things.

Of course, I'm always trying new things. My dad always taught my brother and I that "you don't know that you can't do something unless you try it first. You'll usually find out that you can." I've followed that advice into adulthood - therefore I've learned so many things that I CAN DO. I'll never be that skinny, athletic model type person - but we all have undiscovered talents waiting to be found. All we have to do is try.

Yes - there is the whole kit. If you see it on Life-Scrappers, the preview shows only the elements as of yet because I haven't learned how to upload the second preview yet. I'll get there. The $5 price does include the 40 papers as well as over 40 elements. AND in case you missed it earlier, here is the link again for the FREE sampler.
