About Me

My photo
Carlisle, Pennsylvania
I am a stay at home mom..now that is! February 19th, 2007 I was involved in a car accident while on vacation in Florida. I awoke in ICU to find out that my only two children Annemarie age 3 and Michael age 5 did not make it. Scrapbooking became such a big part of my life. It helped fill a void that I desperately needed to fill. Our therapist suggested that I take up scrapbooking as a way to memorialize my children, little did she know! So I took that and ran with it.I became obsessed with scrapping and took over the second largest room in my house. Because of my injuries I couldn't go out and get a job, I just scrapped!I printed out 2,000 photos and my journey began. I have made albums for family members and layouts to decorate my craft room. We thought we were done having kids but who expected this tragedy??? I just gave birth in June 2009 to two beautiful baby girls Mia Anne and Gianna Marie named after their brother and sister.I swore that I would keep up with their albums so I won't become overwhelmed so we will see how that works out! My profile picture is the last family picture that was taken of all of us.

Around the World with Create a Critter


Today I started like 10 projects and didn't finish one. I literally would get halfway thru a project and get an idea for another one and drop what I was doing. I couldn't focus AT ALL!!! By the end of the day I was determined to come up with something to show for the time I spent in my craft room.

I just love the Create a Critter cartridge for my Cricut. When I saw the "AROUND THE WORLD" challenge over at Crafty Creations I figured it was a perfect opportunity to use the cute little Panda on the cartridge. I combined it with the challenge over at Paperplay which was to use the color brown along with some other color(s)and the challenge at
Cricut Cardz was to use 3 circles and any cut from a Cricut Cartridge. I also entered this into the Creatalicious Orient themed challenge.
