Thankful Thursday!

March 10, 2011 By JulieK

How is it possible that it’s already Thursday again??? Seems like I just wrote a Thankful Thursday post!

Here’s something to be thankful for…

Look at all that YARD… you can see WAY more grass than snow!! It’s not the same in the back yard, but the front yard has actual GRASS showing!!! Yeah!!! It’s cold and windy, but that’s OK ’cause there’s hope as long as we can see grass… Now if we could point the sun to the back yard, we’d be in business!!

I also had a very crafty week!!  We had card club Tuesday night at Late Night Croppers and we made 7 cards… plus cut for 7 more using a wonderful One Sheet Wonder (really 2 6×6 sheets) pattern that I found HERE It was a lot of fun to get together with everyone!

I also did a quick recycled/book project for Creative Memories… but I can’t share yet!  Soon…

Last night was the Pinewood Derby weigh in… Both Sean and Kathryn (for the sibling race) entered their cars… cars have been impounded and are all ready to go on Saturday!! Lots of pics forthcoming after the races… Last year Sean came in second-to-last… just before the boy who’s wheel came off during the race :)  We’re hoping to move up in the ranks a little this year!!  Mike and Sean read all kinds of stuff about making the cars go fast… Here’s hoping!!!

I also finished up Kathryn’s blankie! It came out so cool… It’s made with Bernat Baby Blanket yarn, and Oh So Soft!!!! I only had to rip the whole thing out once, which is good for me ’cause I decided to knit it… and you all know me… I’m really a crochet girl at heart… But, considering I haven’t knit anything in years (with the exception of a scarf earlier in the winter)  It came out really great! I’ll take pics and post about it later in the week…

That’s about all for now I think… Happy Thursday everyone!!!

I just found this deal… If you didn’t get in on the Holiday Deal that Zutter had, Tuesday Morning has this package for a great price…

TUESDAY MORNING ZUTTER

Even better if you can find it in a local Tuesday Morning store :)

Thankful Thursday

March 3, 2011 By JulieK

Hmmm…. Having a very cranky week… But, even with that, there’s a LOT to be thankful for…

Take a look at this…

OMGosh, isn’t it pretty?? It’s MINE :) well… technically… I bought it and it’s on its way to me… should be here in a couple days… I just LOVE it… found a very cool Etsy Shop that I can’t stop stalking Graceful Rosaries all her beautiful rosaries etc. are handmade… Not only is that gorgeous rosary on it’s way to me… but this beautiful rosary bracelet too… ummm… truth be told, the bracelet will be here sooner… Like, today probably… I LOVED it and bought it from her website… then discovered she had additional items on her etsy store… so stalked the rosary for a day before it decided, what the heck, I NEED that too… It’s almost lent, right? I NEED a beautiful rosary to start lent with… And, maybe more than that, I need some peace… and mindful quiet…

***edited to add… OMGOSH!!! My bracelet arrived today when I got home from school… It’s even MORE beautiful in real life!!! it’s so pretty!! I LOVE it!!

Oh, something else to be thankful for… CKC Manchester is coming, I’m taking several classes… AND staying overnight with friends… changed my reservation today, and am staying 2 nights!!! Thanks to my wonderful Mother in Law who will be picking up the kids those 2 days so that I can go!!
See… Look at those pretty rosaries, think about getting away for 2 whole nights… oh, yeah!! There’s a lot to be thankful for…

New Creative Memories Projects!!

March 1, 2011 By JulieK

I am so excited!!! It’s March 1, and the new Creative Memories Catalog is live!!! It’s the first one that I’m in as a design team member, and I couldn’t be more thrilled to see my projects in the catalog and on the website!!!  Check out my projects (page 20 in the printed catalog if you want to take a peek! ). Both of these sets were created using Creative Memories’ digital software Storybook Creator. Click on the picture to go to the Creative Memories Website and idea page and see the photos larger!

This first one is a cover for a hardcover book, the left side is the back when the book is bound and printed.

This is a 2-page 8×8 layout for inside the book.
