Scrappin Sunshine

For those that might be interested in making a little extra spending money in their spare time, you can join "Slice the Pie" by clicking the link below. So far, I've made about $165.00, just working a few late nights in my spare time. Everyone that knows me, knows that I would not suggest something that's bogus. I always try out these sort of things before I refer things like this. The only thing you need is a paypal account (to get paid). They pay out every Tuesday, and Friday. I've always gotten paid on time. Just spending an hour in the late evenings, or early mornings typing small reviews for music tracks, can add up quite fast. Sometimes they offer bonuses.

My daughter is selling wooden block stackable decor in her etsy store. She sells a variety of themes. All blocks are sanded down, hand-painted and given a slight distressed look to add some character. Blocks are water-sealed and any vinyl lettering and scrapbook paper is sealed, as well, for protection and longevity. You can display it with or without ribbon. Check out some of her items below, and you can visit her store my clicking HERE.

 

This is just 1/4 of the space in my craft room, however, it's my favorite space, because it allows me to be able to see photos of my family at all times. I need to do a little organizing, before I can take photos of my other table space.

Get Well Wishes going out to my daughter, Valerie

My granddaughter's birthday was yesterday, and we attended her birthday party last night.

Happy 8th Birthday to Kayliana.

Oh, so true.

Today is my granddaughter's birthday.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADDISON

Spending the day organizing. My files on my computer are everywhere. I have files spread all over the place. I have SVG files, JPG files, MTC files, STUDIO files, PNG files, SCAL files, and GIF files. I have a zillion folders, and when I go to work on a project, it's taking me forever to find the file I need, so today will be spent organizing files. Fun fun fun.

Looking out, from the front of my house, this has been the view we've seen every day around 3:00pm, since June.  One day we lost power for over 8 hours, and didn't turn the generator on, until after 4 hours of having no power, and that was only because I can't scrapbook by candlelight. The only good thing about all these storms is that it fills up the pool, so we don't have to pay for water to fill it up due to evaporation.

My granddaughter, that broke her finger the other day, went to an orthopedic doctor today, and came home with a bright pink cast. She's a tough one though, and she'll get through the next 1 1/2 months even though it will be miserable for her. (I don't post photos of my minor grandchildren on public forums, public facebook pages, or blogs, due to it being so dangerous, and even the police department doesn't recommend it), so I've cropped out her beautiful face, but wanted to show the beautiful pink cast. It's much better than the ugly splint the emergency room gave her.

My newest creations, however, they are already sold. Just finished an order that took me 2 weeks to complete, and now working on another one. Gotta fit some time in somewhere though to do some pages that I've been wanting to do for awhile.

Today wasn't a good day for my lil granddaughter. She broke her finger today, and I went to the ER with her and her mommy. Took almost 4 hours for them to x-ray, set the finger, and get out of there. They had more problems getting her name spelled right, then they did fixing her finger. It's her left hand, and she's right handed. Same hand that she scrapped her fingers on the other day, when she went to do a flip in the water of our pool, and was too close to the side of the pool, and scraped her fingers coming back up out of the water. I feel so bad for her. It hurt me just to look at her finger.

Decided to work on some Disney Die Cuts, but didn't get very far after creating this piece, which consisted of 30+ pieces that were assembled, chalked, and put together.
