One Happy Girl :)

Yup...that's me this weekend...One Happy Girl :) Why, you ask?

First, I got my wholesale order delivered and payment received :) Huge weight lifted!

Then Friday morning I turned on the radio and listened for their giveaway to start...and WON TICKETS!!! I get to go see Lynyrd Skynyrd!!! I also got tickets to Barenaked Ladies, but will probably be giving them away to a cousin since we have a birthday party that evening. What a great way to start off the day!

I finished 6 more premade albums that I'll be taking with me to a party on Sunday. And got started on more custom albums I need to get made.

I also got my first treasury on Etsy! I was pretty excited about this too! And had to put my fave team in it: The EtsyBloggers :)

And to top it all off...I sold 4 more Custom Albums!!!

I wonder what today will bring :)

MiesMama-July Featured EtsyBlogger

Today I would like you to meet Becky of MiesMama...who happens to be our featured EtsyBlogger for the month of July :)

As most of my readers know...I recently got a hair cut and have been coveting all things for my hair...so these are my fave from her shop:

I am also lovin' this Circle Art because it has a cone flower on it...one of my favorite flowers :)

And this bag rocks! Heather Bailey fabrics are all the rage and there are several of them on this awesome bag!

So stop by her shop and find your favorite. And while you're out surfin' the web...stop by her lovely blog as well :)

Stitches and Baskets-Wholesale!

I am so excited to be selling my albums locally now! I just completed my wholesale order for a local gift shop in my home town called Stitches and Baskets!

Along with my albums, you can find all kinds of home decor, candles, baskets, and much, much more! I just love the feel of the shop...and most of all the smell :)

Here are a few of my albums you can find in the shop

So stop by 525 Iowa Ave. in Essex and check out this wonderful shop!!!

Wordless Wednesday...I'm In!

Blue and Chevy

I finally remembered to take my camera outside and get some more pictures of the furbabies :) I try and go out and see them everyday, but never remember my camera. We spent quite a bit of time outside today, so I was able to get quite a few of my cuties :)

We finally named the two newest kitties...Blue and Chevy :)

They like to follow us where ever we go, but when they get up in the yard, they're not sure what to think of Harley. Once they're around him for a few minutes, they get over their fear quickly. These are a couple funny ones! Chevy is waiting patiently in the yard to see if Harley will notice him. And Blue isn't sure he likes Harley that close to him!

And it wouldn't be fair to show off the kitties and not show a shot of my baby :) He's getting furry again...time for a hair cut!

Weekly Feature

This weekly feature is brand new in my shop...just listed it a few minutes ago!!! I didn't think my Custom Name and Word Albums could get any cuter...but I think they just have :) My new Custom Name and Word Albums have POCKETS!!!

These are just like my original Custom Name or Word Albums...but even cuter!!!

The possibilities really are endless with these albums!*Make them into a guest book (lined inserts available)

*Give them as a retirement gift and have coworkers leave a little message in each pocket

*Have party guests write spcecial messages to the honoree

*Tell someone all the reasons why you love them :)

*Place hidden journaling on tags to remember all the special details from your photos

*And Many More!!!

The album is hand cut from heavy-duty chipboard and covered on both sides with cardstock in the colors of your choice (2-3 colors). The letters are then covered in matching patterned paper. Pockets are added by machine stitching cardstock and adding them to the pages with super-tacky adhesive. The album is decorated with quality scrapbook embellishments to match your theme. The album is bound with 2 metal rings that are covered with matching ribbon. Then all you do is add your photos to the front of the pockets :)

How it works:

*Choose your name/word

*Choose your colors

*Choose your theme (optional)

*Choose between lined or blank pocket inserts

What do you think...super cute, right!

I've Been Tagged...Twice!

I must be popular today, because I've been tagged by two of my fellow EtsyBlogger friends :) I love any game that allows me to show off photos :)

The first tag comes from Deb at StoryBeader. I am to show off my 10th photo in my 1st folder. Well, this folder only had one picture in it, so it was pretty easy to find :) This is a photo of Jesse on one of our trips to Wyoming. He had eaten hot wings and I was trying to get a picture of his messy face and he was attempting to hide from the camera :)

The second tag comes from Sharla at BeadedTail. I am to show off my 6th photo in my 6th folder. This one doesn't fit well with the season, but it's a good one :) This is our friend Jeff on one of our snowmobile rides this past winter.

Who knows how my folders will be organized next time I get tagged. I am always moving them around and refiling them. They start as folders marked by the day they were taken, then they get organized by the month they were taken, and finally they get organized by year. I try to keep everything in place so I can find them when I need them. I think I just found my next project!

Oh yeah...I need to tag 5 friends.

1. Lily at Tulips Talking

2. Terronda at Unique Commodities

3. Mandi at Rock-n-Royalty Photography

4. Alicia at Boylerpf

5. Eileen at Dorset Hill Beads
