My Craft Room!
Finally, I got all my jetmax cubes assembled, and now I can post my craft room! I still need 2 more but there is no hurry. I do all kinds of crafts: tatting, knit, crochet, paint in oils and acrylics, needleworks, jewelry, you name it I probably can make it, mostly everything I do involves paper crafts, especially lately. So here is a peek into my obsession:
My Desk (Above) My dear friend Jeri made me matching covers for both my cricuts! They are awesome! I crocheted the doily on my chair.
My Paper (yes, I love groucho, I have had this puppet since I was 8 years old! I lost his glasses and cigar) My baby Bug's cover was also made by Jeri!
Here are my jetmax cubes, I love them!
My painting area
My Embellishment Center
I love this dresser, it used to be my daughter's when she was a baby. I re-purposed it in my room, she inherited her big sis's furniture!
My Closet Area.
Closet opened, lots of storage for my crafts! My Pazzles, and Jewelry and everything. It's also messy! Don't look! LOL
My Desk area. I found this desk at Joann's a few years ago!
Thank you for looking at my space!

The Cart I used is: Storybook
Here is a picture again:
Now that I have figured this out, I will be able to make more!

New Look!
Hey I spruced up my blog again and I'm liking it! I lost everything though and need to start over with links!
I have 4 hours and 30 minutes on my Wii Fit for this week so far. I have 1 1/2 hours left to hit my goal for the week! That's a cinch!
Going to work on my craft projects now. I'm just about finished organizing my craft room, I re-did the whole thing. I need 2 more jetmax cubes to complete the design! I will be taking pictures soon.
Have a blessed Easter weekend! He is Risen!

Recent Cards
Here are some recent cards I have made:
Here is a card I made for Hubby on Valentine's Day. Inside it says: A Wish Came True. I just love him! I love how this card turned out. I sewed a trim in Metallic Silver.
Here is a Card I made for a friend. It doesn't have too much on there, it's for a guy, a dear friend of ours!
A Rocker Card!
My Mom's Birthday card! I used Prismacolor Pencils, and had fun blending and shading! It was a stamp I used. I also used a stamp for the edge and used perfect pearls in pearl color.
Here is my Daughter's 13th Birthday Card, shh don't let her see! Her birthday is 3 weeks away! I used the Hello Kitty Cart, and I love how the cake opens up!

Goals!
A dear friend of mine has been sending goals every week, and I have been sending mine to her. It's awesome because it's accountability for me, and it motivates me as I think it does her. Here are 3 of my goals: Random order
1. To do at least 6 hours on the Wii Fit this week
2. To keep reading in Revelations
3. To be more productive in my craft room and actually make something
So far I have been reading in Revelations, and I put 1:40 minutes on the Wii Fit! Now I need to kick my own butt and get in my craft room and make something!
I was reading in Revelations, and it's cool because in Rev 1:3 a blessing comes to those who read it, hear it, and keeps it, but it also said the time is near! I'm thinking if it was near then, how much more so is the time near now! Quite exciting!
I did make some cards recently, I will post later, I need to take pictures!
May God bless your day! :-)

Bringing Blog Back To Life Again!
I can't believe it has been so long since I have posted on here. I just added some new gadgets to my blog. I also have many crafts and things I have made, so please check back and see what I do!
So much has been going on in my life. I have been trying to lose weight starting at the beginning of January. I just found out yesterday I have lost 16 pounds! WOOHOO! I'm wearing a smaller size jeans for the first time today! Thank God for the Wii Fit!
About Crafts, lately I have have been getting major into stamping. I just love ink and any kind of stamps! Especially Stampin up!
May God bless your day!
