Cards, Cards, & More Cards #13-20 2011 Challenge











I am finally getting back on track and getting caught up on a few things. I needed to place my order with Close To My Heart so I would stay active during this move! I can not wait to get my hands on some of that new product and start creating! In the meantime, I have been trying to finish up some of those layouts and cards that have been lying around for awhile. I've actually got them all organized in a CTMH Work in Progress album....so much easier! While travelling across Canada, I brought a few kits with me and these cards were all made from a Basic Grey card kit - Indian Summer. I love the colours and how the rub-ons were used to accent the chipboard pieces. I plan to use these patterns with some of my Close to my Heart papers and chipboard, along with my Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge.
Card 1 and 4 uploaded sideways despite everything I tried to do, turn your head to get a look - LOL!

Helloooo there!

Well, I am finally "settled" in my new home after being homeless for nearly a month! We left Winnipeg on the 2nd of July and didn't take possession of our new home in Nova Scotia until the 28th. Spent some time with my Mom, then went to Lake Pleasant for a week, then back to my Mom's. I was soooo tired of living out of a suitcase. I still have some work to do in the house, but it is coming together....we have way too much stuff and I am purging as I go. We have had to make some modifications to things to make them work for us which has slowed me down a little as well. When the sun is shining though, we are in the pool cooling off and enjoying summer - the boxes will be there when it rains! I haven't been able to scrapbook for awhile and I am itching to get my room set up so I can play. I will try to visit every one's blogs to get caught up over the next few days. Hope everyone is enjoying summer!
