A New Year and New Beginnings
After many many months of blog neglect I am making a return to the land of the living and the land of crafting!
So first some catching up....the last time I stopped in I was coming back from Austin and a Hauntingly good time with Mom. Things were insanely busy after that - I had a birthday party at Painting with a Twist in Garland, spent 3 days with the lovely ladies at Quick Quotes at Private Reserve, and then my sweet sweet husband got me tickets to a hockey game for our anniversary - Stars lost, but it was awesome! :)
I've also been having a difficult time battling with some depression and generally feeling lost in this big world. Luckily my lovely friends and wonderful families have really helped me pull through. I still have my bad days, but I've pulled through the worst of my funk and I'm looking forward to an awesome new year full of new beginnings and many many scrappy adventures!

So want to know what I've been up to in the world of Paper Crafts? I have fallen in love with the Canvas Kits from Quick Quotes.
This one was created for my BFF in honor of her marriage to her wonderful husband Andy, and the great card her MIL gave her on their first anniversary. It is such a sweet card, and I love the photo - they are such a lovely, kissy face couple - captures that perfectly.
Here's a 10x10 canvas that I did at Private Reserve. I haven't decided what I'm doing with it...maybe a pic of me and Dave...he has been such a blessing in my life so it really is a perfect fit. With him in my life, I am TRULY TRULY blessed. :)
One last project to round out the weekend:
6x6 Canvas Mini Album - So Thankful for....well, everything! This sweet little album has a place for all the things I am so thankful for - My sweet husband, my lovely family and my FABULOUS friends. I can't wait to get home from retreat so I can print pictures to go in them. :)
Well that is all from me for today! See you next week, and remember - do something creative, and do something for you every day!
Hugs!
