It's blog time check in...

I just love blog breaks. I'm resting a little before heading back to paint some more in the bathroom. Now, it is just touch ups and it's looking good. But I am NEVER wallpapering ever again. If I even hint at it, someone PLEASE give me the proverbial kick in the behind!

If I haven't tossed a pound from going up and down the ladder, I'm going on strike. It has been helpful in keeping me away from the fridge though ;-)

I've also spent some time checking up on you, my blogland buddies. I am so happy on how everyone is doing. Keep up the great work, you are my inspiration.

Back to the grind now... oh prayer request!!! My Emily is a sicky. She doesn't look or act it. She has to take breathing treatments to help with the congestion, a steroid and medicine for a double ear infection. God is good though. The one medication was gonna be $100, but her doctor and the pharmacist came up with an alternative that the insurance will cover. Can't wait to tell hubby!

  4. Had to laugh at the comment about wallpaper. I did the same thing once, to both the bathroom and kitchen in an old farm house that we used to own. I also said NEVER again. I did have help from my hubby but I still wouldn't try that one again.

    Hope Emily is feeling getter soon.

Building Block Graduation Card

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
