For my hubby

Today is the day that I married my best friend, my love, my everything. I'm so thankful that the lord has blessed our marriage, our children, our home. It's been a crazy year but the lord has carried us through and made us stronger than ever. Happy Anniversary baby!!!

 

Ummm... yes, that's suppose to be me... in lingerie :)

 

 

I've gained what???

I'm super excited to be a guest designer over at My Sheri Crafts this week. The challenge is to use buttons. I've used 12 buttons by layering most of them. 

 

This is an easel card and the image is is called Tubby Tub from Squigglefly. Once again, I colored with my daughters Crayola colored pencils. (About time I get some mommy colored pencils... LOL)

Paper: DCWV, The Linen Closet

*** On a personal note... My LASIK was a complete success!!! I'm now seeing 20/15 (which is better than 20/20)!!! The surgery didn't hurt at all and it was done in less than a few minutes per eye. It was so great to wake up this morning and not have to reach for my glasses just to see the alarm clock ;) I used to hate to wear my glasses in public but here's a final mug shot of me in glasses.

I donated my old glasses to the Lion's Club. They give them to needy families and have even supplied some of my students with some gently used glasses . WOO HOO!!! NO MORE GLASSES!!!   

*** Oh... I made a blog button. Someone please tell me if it works. Thanks!

This card is dedicated to everyone who has ever been laid off. My heart goes out to all you teachers that just got your lay off notice. I've been teaching for 9 years and I've gotten a layoff notice every year for the last 4 years. 

The image is from Dude Time Doodles. I wish I had some Copic markers to color this in right. But I had to settle for using my daughter's Crayola color pencils :) I was also able to use scraps from a previous project. Check out Dino... Fetch from a few posts back.
