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.

Warm Thoughts

Good morning y'all! Hope you are all staying warm and safe!  It is been horrible over here!!
Today starts a new challenge over at the Sisterhood of Crafters, hosted by my fellow Sistah Terri.  It is VERY fitting for this time of year I'll say!! lol

The challenge is called "WARM THOUGHTS".  We are asking you to create a project based around what keeps your warm during these chilly months.  Hot Cocoa, Blankets, quilts, coffee, mittens, etc. etc.

For my project I created a card with an adorable sock monkey with earmuffs digi I got from Craftin' Desert Divas which you can find HERE. I colored him with my markers and added some sparkle with my Wink of Stella pens (which is hard to see in the photo) and then added an appropriate sentiment from my CHILLY stamp set. The paper came from a paper pad by Bo Bunny that I recently picked up called the Altitude collection.


The challenge lasts 2 weeks.  I sure hope you come on by and warm up with us over at the Sisterhood!

Have a great day & Happy Crafting!
