Coupons for the week of Novemeber 8th!

Here are the coupons for the week of November 8th! Please take the time and come back and post how much money you saved using the coupons this week!  I would love to know how much people are really saving!  Happy Shopping!

Just a Hint for Printing the coupons!
I usually Copy and Paste the coupons into an email.  I can then edit the ones I do not want and print the ones I do.  You can copy them by holding your left mouse button down as you drag across them.  Once you do this they will turn blue.  You will then right click and select copy.  Create a new email like you are going to write it and right click on the text area and right click again.  You will then select Paste.  You can now select each coupon and either leave it so it prints or you can delete it if you don't want it to print.
Good Luck!

Oh my gosh....a bunch of comments were accidentally rejected for the 250,000 blog hits blog!

Please check to make sure you comment is posted.  If you dont see your comment, please repost!  I accidentally rejected about 10 comments that were supposed to be in the 250,000 blog hits drawing!  I am so sorry!  That is what I get from trying to moderate my comments from my iphone instead of my computer!
Consider this my lesson learned!

I am staying and I'm here for good!

I have to admit that it has been a super rough week for me this week!  I spent a lot of time in prayer asking the lord for guidance.  After much prayer and soul searching, I have come to the conclusion that it would be a shame to waste the gifts that God has given me.  If I were to stop posting and sharing that is what I would be doing.  I have also come to the conclusion that if I let a hateful and spiteful person run me off I am teaching my children to quit.  If I am one thing it is NOT a quitter!
I have found out through all the wonderful comments that I received as well as the tons of emails, Private Messages and Phone Calls that the majority of the people who visit here want me to stay.  I cannot tell you how good that makes me feel.  I want to thank each and every one of you for rallying around me and letting me know how much you care.  They say you have to hear 5 positive things for every negative thing that is said to you and I think you all out did yourselves!  I am still hurt about the whole ordeal but I am moving past it and am going to triumph it!

Be sure to stay tuned for lots to come!  If you have not entered in the 250,000 hits blog give away, take a moment and pop on over to that post and leave a comment with a way for me to contact you!  I will be drawing a winner very soon!

Once again, thanks so much for your support.  Have a wonderul day!

I am disheartened, wounded and very hurt!

I have had a super rough day! I am trying to decide if I am still motivated to share anymore. I feel very beaten and bruised inside tonight. I no longer am excited to share my talent. I have always shared my creations as an inspiration to others. I have always been more than willing to share my knowledge, .cut files and ideas whenever asked.  I spend several hours every week keeping up with the coupons that everyone wants so badly but as I said, I am trying to decide if I am still motivated to share anymore.


I had some terrible things said about me today on the Cricut Message Board that really wounded me.  My integrity and reputation were attacked by some one who hid behind a Message Board name of Lurker.  The person was not even brave enough to let themselves to known.  This person also apparently visits my blog regularly as she posted a photo of my original Ocean layout  .Once this person put the seed of doubt in people minds, it just snowballed.
I am just not sure I want to share anymore.  I am very hurt right now and feel very wounded.  I am going to have to pray about what my decision is going to be and really do some healing before I decide what to do.  I hope that you will all understand my decision once I make it.  I just do not feel like crafting right now.  Hopefully my feelings will change in the future but for now......I have a huge decision to make.

Create a font from your own handwriting and Join our handwriting font swap!





I found this sight the other day and started thinking that it would be tons of fun to create my own font.  What would be even neater is be able to exchange fonts with my friends and family!  I print a lot of my journaling out instead of handwriting it so this will be kind of like it is hand written.  The other thing I do is make tons of Recipe Scrapbook pages and this would break up the monotony of the same old fonts used over and over.  Just think how neat this would be with your mothers font if you are making one of her recipes.  It would be kind of like whe wrote it out.  Let me know if you would like to join a font exchange. 

Leave a comment below if you would like to participate and email me if you are interested!  All you have to do is follow the instructions on the website and then email me your font.   Once you have emailed me I will send out the rest of the details.

Just a side note!  I am going to a retreat in Black Mountain this weekend and have been told that we will have very little internet capabilities!  If you would like to participate, I will not be able to respond to you this weekend.  I will get all of the details sent out to everyone next week!

PLEASE REMEMBER TO LEAVE A COMMENT AND EMAIL ME IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE SWAP!!!

She Thinks My Tractor's Sexy!

I recently taught a private Design Studio lesson and my student wanted this layout created.  So create we did!  I think that the finished product turned out pretty cute.  Be sure and let me know what you think of it!
In creating this layout we used Cricut Expression, Cricut Design Studio, the Mickey Font Cricut Cartridge, the Plantin' Schoolbook Cricut Cartridge and the Everyday Paper Dolls Cricut Cartridge.  The Cardstocks are from American Craft and Prism.  Tombow Mono Aqua Liquid Adhesive Glue was used to assemble the entire layout.  Other items used in embellishing the layout were:  Copic Markers, a Signo White Gel Pen and a Sakura Micron 01 Pigma Pen.
