Halfway there!!!!

By
Well, I got on the scale today and it read 246!  I've lost 78 lbs ( 45 lb) since surgery on Oct 25th.  So that mean I have 76 lbs to go before I reach my goal of 170.  Don't have that many before pics, wonder why??? lol

Here I am at my highest wt of 324

I feel so blessed.  I was able to go through my clothes and have donated 5 garbage bags full, and God is still providing for me :)   I think today, I finally realized how much I lost.  I was trying on clothes and mom wanted me to try on a size 18.  I was like, no way!  My butt is tooo big and I'll rip them.  She laughed and said to do it anyway.  And THEY FIT!!!!  I was over the moon and then we took today's pictures, and I'm in shock.

    There's your lovely face again! You have just made so much progress and I know when you tried on the size 18 and they fit, you shouted: "Yes"!!!

    Don't you feel so much better...not only physically but emotionally...I am so proud of you...keep those photos coming...I noticed your husband has lost quite a bit also since the profile photo was made...good for him.

My Favorite Craft Tools and Giveaway!!!

By
Hi everyone, Today's video is a fun one for me. Since getting back into crafting I have noticed that I am pulling certain items over and over again and thought it would be fun to share with you. Two years ago, I took a step back from crafty and downsized 75% of my craft room.  However with just these awesome tools, I have been able to get back into the swing of things and I don't miss having a larger craft room. Personally, I feel every crafter should have these starting out.  They make creating easy and fun! Tools mentioned: Misti, Neehna Bright Cardstock, Distress Oxides, Ranger Dylusions die cut, In Love Art Shop word die cuts, ATG, Prismacolor Pencils, premade cards,Fiskars cutting blade and trimmer, Zig color pens, Wink Of Stella, Alcohol markers, t-ruler, Westcott 0 ruler, 6x6 paper pads, Versamark, EK Success powder tool, 3d Crystal Lacquer, Tombow adhesive, Momento/Hero Arts black ink, Cricut, Chameleon Black Pen, Pencil, Grid stamping block, etc. For the mont

Building Block Graduation Card

By
Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8
