Let's Start Over

Wow...I can't believe how long it's been!!!

 I have been creating, and even hauling...
but not sharing on here.
I apologize.

Nothing I can do about it now except to start over...again!

So, since the last time I have been here,
nothing much has really changed in my life.
Still working about 55-60 hours a week at a job I love...
Still living the BEST life I could ever dream about at home
with the love of my life and my two fur babies.
Still crafting, and watching sports.
We had a wedding and a birth this year in the family...
and everyone is doing well.
I am so blessed for that.

I am still loving my Happy Planner and am still tweaking it each month
to be more accessible for me and it has been so much fun.
I am still stamping and creating cards, which will always be a love of mine.
I have gotten into Loaded Envelopes, planner clips, 
and other crafts that have been trending.

But the biggest thing I have gotten into in the past six months...
Adult Coloring!
I know, when it first came out, I thought...nah, not for me.
Why would I want to color in books?

Well...here's my answer in a nutshell.
When I make cards, they are for someone else.
When I color in the books, they are for me.
And although I truly LOVE making cards and such for others,
The books are just for me and for me to be able to 
practice and hopefully get better.

So I have accumulated a bunch of books, 
and I have to say that I am loving the illustrator Marty Noble right now.

Here are some of her drawings that I have colored.

 'Angel' out of the Winter Scenes Book


 'Fairy with Butterfly' out of the Fairies Book


 'Mermaid' out of the Mermaids book


'Green-eyed Girl' out of the Steampunk book.

It was great catching up and hope to do more soon.
 I have started on my Halloween cards,
and am trying to get my Christmas cards set up soon.
I will be sure to share them with you as well.

Happy Creating!!!
