New Creations New Inspiration

Morning, sorry I have been a little quiet. Just baby on the
brain more and more day by day. I finally managed to pick
out a name!!! Kyria Faith Reszko. The first name means
noble woman and ofcourse Faith is pretty much straight
foward. I am really satisfied with this name and think that
it is quite lovley. Let me know what ya think!



On to some creations. I have ALWAYS been a fan of Pagemaps
and have ALWAYS wanted to be a faithful follower and
creator of projects based off the sketches. This is the recent
contest/challenge from her site! http://pagemaps.com/blog.php
Along with the sketch is my take on it!!!




I have such a weakness for layering and this page is no exception.
Lots of layers. The page had to include some that we appreciate
from day to day so I thought about sunshine. Being a stay-at-home
mom sometimes means that you stay indoors a little too much.
When you don't have your own house and happen to live in
and apartment it makes it that much harder because there is no
yard of any kind. There happen to be little areas around where
I can take Lani out and just sit, watch her, and enjoy a few rays
of sunshine. In those moments there is nothing like it. Thank
you Pagemaps for a little reflecting and clarity!

Here is a card that I created using CPS sketch #158. Sorry,
I forgot to add the picture of the sketch but you can check it
The sketch is from last week but there are some that I still
just can not pass up.
Now for a few things that have made me swoon over the past
week. I have been venturing out and finding new inspiration
and pretty things that I would LOVE to work into projects of
mine!
A little give-a-way Elsie had on her blog recently.
She always has the most wonderful little treasures.

Speaking of treasures, here are a few pics of vintage treasures
found at the Little Pink Studio. http://www.littlepinkstudio.typepad.com/
There is SO much inspiration packed here!!!
Lastly her Primas product pick! How can you not
be inspired by Prima!!!
Well, I am off now to myself together outwardly.
I am still in PJ gear.
Be blessed and I hoped you enjoyed the read!

Making Up My Mind

If you see several different banners being tossed and switched around
it is me trying to make up my preggy little mind. I just had to get the
most adorable digi kit today designed by Danielle Thompson, http://thompsonfamily.typepad.com/thompson_familylife/. It was on
sale for a buck here, http://www.jessicasprague.com/, just for today!!!
I used it for my current banner along with some picnik alterations. Just
having a little late night fun...

Exploring and Expecting

Hey all! Hope your day is going great thus
I am having somewhat of a difficult time
carrying around the baby and now have to
wear the brace all the time. SIGH...
O well, it could be worse. Today I felt ok
enough to take my little flower outside. She
is getting more and more into taking pics
which a HUGE thing for her! I am so happy!


She was happy too until see saw this little critter. LOL!
I had to go through this whole explanation of what it was,
that it was more afraid of her, they don't hurt, etc,.
In the end she spend most of time begging me to keep
one. Yes, they are all over. I then had to tell her that
there is no way we could catch it or keep it. They are
meant to be free. She spent the remainder of our time
outside searching out and observing lizards.Oh, and
humming birds.....

Baby is on the brain for me as well so this weekend I
made these two projects!


There is some yummy American Crafts and Prima working
together. I handmade the flowers inspired again by Primas
Innoscence flowers. I also drew and hand cut the white
butterfly as well. FUN!!!


I decided to make this mini log album for my stay once
in the hospital to have the baby. Since this is my last for
sure I want to remember as much as possible about
the giving birth experience.This mini was created using
Jillibean Chicken Noodle and Jillibean Sprouts with a
little Sassafras thrown in.
That is all I have right now!
be blessed

Seated

I have really been missing taking photos and such so due to me
having to slow down day by day I thought it might be time again.
Oh and we FINALLY HAVE INK in our printer again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That motivated me a great deal as well. We had to buy all the
colors over again because we had not used it in such a long while.
They all had dryed out!




On to a few projects. I created this card based off of the recent
pagemaps challenge. I have ALWAYS LOVED her sketches but
never got around to doing one until now. This was fun!!!
Go check it out here! http://pagemaps.com/blog.php

Here is a quick pic of my littel butterfly! We were picking
up Jadon from school. I tryed getting a pic of Jadon but
he totally wasn't feeling it.
Lastly this is just because I want to create a page layout
and I am EXCITED to have ink again project. LOL! We
were at the pier and I was extremely surprised at some
of the rides that they were not afraid of!


Well, that all folks for now. Hope to be back real soon!!!
Be blessed!!!

Feelin Springy?

So it feels as though I am being pushed into spring even
I am still not feeling quite there yet. Over at Moxie Fab
though they sure can be convincing!!! http://www.moxiefabworld.com/2010/03/tuesday-trigger-sweet-on-spring.html




I created this page for Challenge#4 over at Crop Suey!!!
This go around is all about using some of those yummy
scraps laying around. I know you have tons of them because
every great scrapper does so head on over and enjoy!!!

That is it for the night! Stay tuned on news regarding
my son losing his first tooth and his now HUGE obsession
for brushing his teeth. LOL!
Be blessed!

Adventure


Life has been feeling a lot like this lately. It always seems
like there is so much to do and it usually is not. Can you
believe that I have not even peeked at names yet for the
baby?! Oh yea, I am slacking big time!!!
I just wanted to make a quick stop by before picking Jadon
up from school.
Be blessed!!!

Hello Six Months

Well, here I am at six months and boy am I tired. It
seems to be getting worse the further along I get.
I went for my ultrasound and they said that it looks
like another girl is on the way but then said they can't
be completely sure. I know that they can't tell 100%
but she made sound as if she REALLY was not sure
so I have to stick with the neutral colors. I know that
you all want to stare at the way that I carry. It is
absolutely strange and see my brace over to the side.
That is what I have to wear when the weight tends
to be a little too much which is most of the time. LOL!
Anywho, 6 down and 3 more to go and I am FINISHED
for good. No more babies for me. LOL!
Be blessed!

Inspired By Prima n Moxie Fab!!!

Well, I bought these GORGEOUS Prima flowers from Two Peas

and when I saw them in person I just knew I had to create little

art flowers all my own!!!









I came up with these. I really don't know what to call them but

that not the most important thing. The important thing was after

making them......................................................................................







I USED THEM!!!!!!!



A dear friend of mine from the band that we are in gave me this

little box of chocolate samples. I did what any preggy artist woman

would have done. I ate the chocolates and altered the box!!! =)
Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger inspired me as well this week

with this color combo in which I am CRAZY about right!!! Thanks

Moxie Fab!!!!!


Well, that is the story tonight and it is late now so I have to go get

some shut eye.

Until next time be blessed!!!

Slowly But Surely

That is what it feels like anyways. Still wanting to
blog more and share more. I know that I will get
there soon. I have been doing lots better though
so I shouldn't beat myself up. LOL!



I stopped by to share some Sassafras love! They
are having this challenge where you dig out the
goodies you have been admiring but just haven't
had the heart to dig into yet. Well here is mine. I
have such a bad habit of buying pretty scrapbooking
goods and not being able to cut into them. Some-
times it is just so hard but I did it!!!
http://sassafras.typepad.com/sassafras/2010/02/love-me-love-me-say-that-you-love-me-consider-yourself-challenged.html






I hope you are inspired in some type of way!!! I am
always up for challenges now. Another HUGE change
for me.
Until next time be blessed!

Just A Few Things

So yesterday for first time in my life I actually watched
the superbowl. For those that know me I DO NOT like
football at all!!!! I just didn't get it and never seemed like
a fun sport to me not even when I played in school. The
church was having a get together though to fellowship
and watch so I thought WHY NOT! Thanks to a really
great friend in the band I was able to understand it a
WHOLE lot better and actually got excited during some
parts of the game. SURPRISE?! Yes, for me it was. Oh
the twist and turns of life.




Here are a few challenge projects that I did. This first one
is a challenge on the Embellish Magazine site.
http://embellishmagazine.com/blog/
The challenge was to use a color combo and ribbon. I just
recently found this site and LOVED it right from the start.
They have tons of inspiration!!!

This second project is a DT page that I made for Crop Suey
featuring a special guy. I figured I would give it a little twist
and make it about my SIL new dog Otto. OH MY GOODNESS!
This dog is SO SWEET and I fell in love with him instantly.
His paws are HUGE and he is going to be just that when he
hits adulthood. Adorabable!!! Please come play along with us
and get inspired by our fantastic design team.

Until next time all be blessed!!!

So Sad....

Yes, it is sad but true. My poor camera has been neglected.
I just have not been motivated to take any photos lately. It
just happened!!! I'll just blame it on having a preggy moment.



Speaking of photos and preggy moments when I saw this photo it
just made my mouth water. Oh how I wish I had some of this
right now!!!
Found here:
I will be back soon with Crop Suey Challenge 2!!!
Be Blessed!

Guess who's sponsoring?!!!!!!!

If you would like to see what's up for grabs for playing along stop on by! It is definitely something that you don't want to miss out on!!!
http://shopcropsuey.blogspot.com/

See you there!

Wishing...

I find myself wishing for some things lately. It is said be careful
what you wish for it just may come true. Does that really make
it better for us? Just something to ponder.
Anyhow, I finished a couple of projects along with a project done
not so long ago in my book and decided to share. Enjoy!



This is a wall hanging that I created to hang with a series. It is
the first of a few. I used American Crafts, Heidi Swapp, Making
Memories, and there is a little Scenic Route in there as well.

This layout was created using Upsy Diasy Man About Town,
Making Memories, K&Com., American Crafts, and some other
little tid-bits.

This invite is all American Crafts. Super FUN!!!!!!



Well, one of my wishes was to be at CHA right about now
but for those who were able to go I hope are having a blast.
How can they not right! LOL!
Until next time all Be Blessed!
