Hi all! It has been over two years since I last blogged.

With all the changes in my life and the kids growning up so quickly, I just do not have the time to blog like I did.

If you found my blog after all the time and would still like to see what'sup with me.

You can find me on facebook.

I Facebook regularly and tweet every so often.

until we meet again,

OK I'm back!

Yes, it has been a very long time. Ok let me be honest a very very long time since I blogged.

Life has changed in such amazing ways for me and the kids in the past 7 months. The kids are growing and I am now working from home and loving it.

Change is good and I am loving it. The kids are thriving and I am excited.

I have been an active Facebook-er but it is just not the same as sitting down and reflecting.

Since change is here, I am working on a new blog header and taking photos of some crafty things.

I must admit that now that the dust has settled, the kids are back at school and the holidays are behind me, I am FIRED-UP!

I am so excited that I don't know what to do.

You get a crafters size of ICE Resin in your survival kits. It is great because you can resin up as many sheets as you would like based on your application.

We will be using the paper that we created in this class to make other projects on the cruise.

We are going to have 2 hours to ICE Resin paper. All different kinds of paper. So here is the deal.

If you even thinking about going, make your reservation immediately. If we don't get enough people, we wont be able to go.

So to make it worth your while. The first twenty people will be put into a drawing to win one of three prizes.

I'm having an A+ day! Just got back from having lunch with Chi-Chi at school and now I am off to try and find my first GeoCache with the boys. We have just under three hours to see if I can't do this today.

36 Days and Counting!

I know I know, can you believe it! School is almost over. The summer is once again upon us.

I'm the Mama that always gives a handmade gift. That's who I am.

Well I was in Archivers at the 1.99 bin, and there were these trapezoid shaped clipboards from EK Success.

The metal clip at the top comes separate. I did not have to worry about piecing anything together at the top. Love it.

I had seen them before but never really thought much about them. But for 2 bucks, I figured why not. It sat in my house for weeks.

Sunday I was crafting with Debbie and the bug hit me to make these. I told Debbie that I was going to keep it simple and not over do it. She threw down the gauntlet and I accepted my own challenge.

I used some left over ICE Resined flowers from my cards, a piece of ribbon and Basic Grey Recess.

Jillibean Soup made the felt flowers. They are laser cut and I love them. The edges will not fray.

I had originally only made one for her classroom teacher Ms. McCullough. But of course when I showed Chi-Chi the one, she "needed me to make two more" for her Principal and Assistant Principal.

I made them all for under 10 bucks and stuff out of my stash in less than an afternoon.

And yes, I put the names on with STICKERS. Everybody has to love a good set of letter stickers now and again.

They turned out super!

Teachers love a thoughtful gift.

until we meet again,

Lauren
