From My Heart...

So I am still working on organizing my craft room!! I worked till about 2:00 am then started bright and early Saturday Morning! Today I had to stop and get myself ready to go back to work. :(

I wanted to make sure I did a little crafting this weekend so I won't be cranky all week! So I worked on the floor, a box and my chair!

I am almost done, and will post photos when it's all nice.

I was on a Mission!!

Yup!! I came home today and saw that my Husband just purchased this awesome shelf for his closet.... I knew that the rest of the day I would be on a mission!!

I needed those shelves for my craft stuff!! It holds the 12X12 paper packs perfect!!

So I proceeded to ask nicely, explain how much neater my side of the office could be, shed a tear, flashed some puppy love eyes, asked him if he knows just how much I Love him....

Then I said I will show you.... I will make you a card that is so "me & you" You will have to give me your shelves.....

Ok.... so here it is:

And guess what!!!

Here is what I had:

And this is what I have now....

LOL!!  The only stipulation is I have to have the office completely clean tonight!!

ERRRR... Ok! it is going to be A Long night since is it 9:00 PM!!

Yippee!! Thanks Babe!

SEI Challenge with Abby: Laughter/Smile

Alice In Wonderland # 2

I just love a good challenge, so when Always Crafting posted about an  Alice in Wonderland challenge, I had to join in!

( And it was easier since I still had all my supplies out from my other one!)

So here is the funny story:

I searched on line for some inspiration, I knew I wanted to make something with a mushroom. I came upon this and loved it!

Flash forward a few hours, homework, dinner, kids, etc etc and  it's late so I got to work.

I never actually looked at the photo after I saw it on-line but I laughed when I realized what I THOUGHT the tag said!

Here is my project:

Yup, I thought is said EAT ME! LOL I am still so happy with the way it turned out! I really need to go to bed!
