A Gift...

Today, November 13th...

Today is the day where bloggers everywhere

are joining together in a campaign to buy water for Christmas.

4500 mothers bury their children

EVERY DAY due to contaminated water.
That statistic crushes my heart.
It hits very close to home this year.
Because I have been there.
And while it is a harsh reality,
no mother should ever have to bury their child.
The lack of access to clean water
is the leading cause of death in underdeveloped nations.
But we can do something to help.

 

$10 will buy clean water for someone in Africa for 10 years.
10 years.
$10 isn't much for us, is it?
And your $10 will be changing a life.
Will you join me today?
Click the photo below to be directed to a secure donation site
of the non-profit organization charity:water

All donations are tax deductible.
100% of the profit goes directly to clean water solutions in West Africa.

Share this with everyone you know
today.

Scrappy Scrap + Messy Mess...

Yes there is a difference!

This is Scrappy scrap goodness!

I am working on a sweet project...

and this one is for me.

Yep you heard me right,

I am creating something for

myself, and I don't plan on sharing it!

It's about dang time!

While working on my scrappy scrap creation

I got inspired/side-tracked :)

This little number was found today at the bottom

of my daughters closet. We've had it for

at least 2 years and she's hardly worn it.

I'm not really a fan! It's just so boring!

So about 30 minutes later...

this is what I came up with

Isn't it just so stinkin' cute?!

Now with that being said...

While in scrappy scrap heaven

 

the messy mess was created...

My kids LOVE playing with buttons?!

Oh well there are worse things they could have

gotten into I suppose!

 

Like a bag of brown sugar accompanied by two spoons!

No joke, they were in heaven...

or

the vaseline that I found smeared ALL over Addie

this morning

or

the jumbo size baby soap completely emptied into

the bath tub...

as I was cleaning that one up Addie said to me,

"maybe next time you should hide it from me!"

or

the their entire closet emptied into the bedroom...

Like I said, buttons are nothin' compared to

what could have happened!

A Quick & Delicious Sandwich

  This is a most delicioso sandwich...

whoa, I've been watching too much Dora!

 

All you have to do is...

-mix miracle whip or mayo with some cumin

(as much or little as you like)

- spread spicy mayo on each piece of bread

(i like my bread lightly toasted)

-layer with yummy, crunchy bacon

-ripe avocado, sliced

-a juicy tomato slice

-crisp romaine lettuce

Get ready to have your taste buds go crazy!

Enjoy!

Lovin' this new design!

I'm loving this new Advent Cake design... thought of it after

I did a recent order for someone!

More to come!

I must say this outloud...

I have an addiction.

It comes in a pack...

It's colorful...

It makes me all woozy...

No it's not alcohol,

It's paper and

Michael's just brought all

of their new Christmas paper

out and I am in love :)

I can't help myself!

A Funky, but Fun way to Countdown to Christmas!

A new addition to the shop!

I think this one is my favorite so far :)

I'm still working on my blog

for

Trisha Grace Photography

As soon as it's done

you'll have to check out

my latest newborn

photoshoot!

It's too cute for words!

I Would Love your Advice & Direction...

I am going to try and create

my very own Christmas cards

in photoshop this year!

I have the equipment,

so why not?!

My only issues are...

I have no clue where to

begin?

Some of you crafty women

out there have to know something

about digital scrapbooking!

Tell me your favorite sites!!!

I'm using a MAC...

and
