:: Been Busy! ::
Have you guys been wondering where I’ve been? I’ve just been super busy the past few days and haven’t been able to get over here and do a post. I had one of those creative moments hit me, and I went with it! I got a lot of cool element packs made - not to be a tease, just letting you know - LOL! Also the household stuff… blah! Oh, on another creative note, Jordan and I did a some crafting on Friday. I had these birdhouses in her room, but they were a little “country” for her boho style room. So, altering fool that I am, I decided to alter them to match the other items I’ve made for her room. Again with the My Mind’s Eye Magnolia line - LOL! Here are two of the ones that I’ve finished. I have one more that I want to work on sometime today.


:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Jordan’s karate school had a family night at Gatti Town last night. The place was packed! It’s always busy on a Saturday night, but this was just crazy! I mean, we had to stand in line 10 minutes just to get some pizza! They had the theater room reserved and they were showing some kick-boxing fights. The owner of the school that she goes to is a former national champion, and his sons have been competing for several years now, and they’re right up there too. It’s amazing to watch the fights!

Hi Traci,
Nice template. Nice to take a break from scrapping and get into something different, right? Your blog always gives us something to ponder. How about an overall picture of Jordan’s room. What a lucky little girl to have such a crafty momma.

I don’t visit most of the blogs and sites that I’ve bookmarked over the past several months, scrapping or otherwise. I simply don’t have the time. But I love coming to visit your blog. It amazes me how much you get done while being a mom and wife, etc. I am always pleasantly surprised by a really beautiful photo or a new layout or a great new craft project. Your art and crafts give me so much inspiration. I only wish I had the energy, time and motivation to create and accomplish half of what you do. Thanks for inspiring with your fab stories and pictures, not to mention the lovely freebies. Honestly, the freebies are just icing on the cake. You rock.

Thank you for your templates, Traci! They’re so different from each other and both are so interesting and fun. I like the crooked way the little squares are scattered on the layout.
The birdhouses are adorable. I need to do something like that with my various ugly wooden boxes, utensil holders, napkin holders, desk organizer stuff…

Wow Traci,
it’s really innovative that the template is not in the classical grey shades - love this way and the squares are cute, can’t wait to scrap it more than once, the little squares just shout on me to use them not just with the papers but also with the pics
Wonderful, thank you very much
