''Good Times" Mini album









''Together'' mini album

This album was a lost of fun to make. The theme is "Together" I chose that as the cover title so that you can put any occasion pictures in it.Most of the papers were designed by myself using a water color technique with inks and stamps. This album took a long time to make since I really put a lot of little details into making my own backgrounds. All the stamped image backgrounds are embossed with a beautiful black sheen.The cover is covered in embossing enamel for a wet pebbled look as well as the embellishments which are also hand made.
There are 19 pages, 38 front and back, I made sure to leave a few semi blank so they can be covered with larger pics. The album measures 5''x5'' with an exception of some half size pages. I hope you guys like it, it will be up for sale on my Etsy as soon as I figure out pricing.







Waiting

Hi everyone! I'm still waiting for the baby to come, been in and out of the hospital for pre-term labor but she's still lounging for now. Oh and to take my mind of the painful contraction and home refinement I've been making mini albums!!!! Yes I will post pics on here later today. I opened an Etsy account and plan to put them up for sale on there soon when I figure out how much they are worth selling for. Maybe you guys can help with that when I post the pics later today. Well thanks everyone for being so sweet I can't wait to post pics of the baby when she comes.

Good news for me

Ok I don't have gestational diabetes thank goodness, and after changing my diet I have lost one pound which really counts as 3 since I am supposed to be gaining atleast a pound a week. I'm feeling better although I did have to go in on Monday for contractions again! The Doc says she thinks I'll only be able to keep this baby in for two more weeks but I think I can make it longer. Thanks everyone for the warm wishes and support!

Holy Moly

So, I go to my Dr. appointment last week and they tell me I gained too much weight so I have to watch my sugar intake and diet. I'm so disappointed because I didn't gain enough weight with my last preagnancy, and now it has switeched. What's worse is they said I can do any physical activity either because of my pre-term labor problems. I'm so frustrated and sad because I just want soemthing to go right with this pregnancy not to mention it just adds more stress. Yesterday I went in to get tested for gestational diebetes, and I'm really worried because my Mom has diabetes so I'm at higher risk of having it as well. I didn't have it last time so that is comforting, but I wasn't over weight last time either. Anyhow, I just had to vent a little. Can't wait to see my little girl, I know she'll be healthy and beautiful just like her brother.

Baby update

Hi everyone! Thank you so much for understanding and all your kind words and prayers. So far things are looking good, I went the whole week without any contractions! I'm definately feeling better about it all now, but I'm still on my toes. The baby moves a lot and is doing really well. I'm itching to scrap so bad but all my stuff is still packed away from the move! Oh and guess what, we're moving again March 1st!! I know it's crazy!

I'm back!

Hi everyone! I'm so sorry I have not been able to do anything the last few months. I had an unexpected pregnancy complication in addition to everything else. For some reason I keep going into labor and so I am on bed rest and in and out of the hospital it seems every other day. Thank goodness for tributilyn (not sure how to spell it) it's the only drug that stops the contractions. Just found out I'm dilated to 3cm last week so I have to take it really easy since I'm only 25 weeks along.
About the ATC club so sorry I'm so behind I haven't even looked at any of them, however I am going to be sending them off to someone who will be taking over for me. I did notice that there are much few for Nov & Dec so you may get some of your cards back. Please do not send any more cards untill I get the address of the new host. I will post a blog soon when I confirm everything with her. Once again I'm sorry I haven't been on to update you sooner, it's been on my mind but I've had so much going on it's been very stressful. Thank you everyone for being so amazing. When all is better I will resume the tutorials and posts.
