New Family Member - Emma




Hi everyone! Here's Emma, our newest family addition. Some of you may know that our first "baby", Bella, was ill with cancer and we had to say goodbye to her on Christmas Day. It was the worst Christmas I ever had; after almost 11 years with her, losing her just made me cry and cry. I used to laugh at women like me that were obsessed with their dogs, but I soooo turned into that. Bella was truly like my daughter; I will always love her and miss her. My husband couldn't stand the empty feeling he had, so he went to our local Animal Humane Association and adopted this little gal. We named her Emma and WOW is she a handful. When we adoped Bella, she was older and was already potty trained and somewhat calm, but Emma is only 2 months old and she is a handful. She's finally not crying at night, so I'm now getting some sleep.

I'm taking a survey, is it better to crate train her or to just keep saying "no" and taking her outside? Any thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks for stopping by!

Flight of the Butterfly CD Folio





I came up with this project because I wanted a way for demonstrators or brides or whomover to say "thank you" and give a gift of a CD holding pictures or music. I took pictures of sample boards at a SU Regional event and I thought how cool would it be to make a CD of the cards and give it as a "thank you" to my hostesses who booked workshops. I also thought this would be a great way for a married couple to send a photo/music "thank you" to guests at their wedding. I shared this project with my upline and sidelines last July and I hope you like it too!

I used Flight of the Butterfly stamp set; Gable Green, Whisper White, and Brilliant Blue Cardstock; 2-way glue; Dazzling Diamonds; Butterfly Punch, Scallop Circle Punch, 1 3/8" Circle Punch; Brilliant Blue and Gable Green classic ink pads; and Sticky Strip, Mini Glue Dots, and Stampin' Dimensionals.

I included a copy of the Template I provided at our demonstrator function that shows the score lines and paper sizes; click on photo to see larger image. You'll notice that I didn't put Sticky Strip all the way across the bottom of the folio; this was so that the CD could slide all the way to the bottom edge of the paper. Since I was trying to stay within the 12" length, the CD had to slide all the way to the bottom. Thanks for stopping by and email me if you have any questions!
