My Empty Nest

Seems like we all move home after we grow up and learn some things, right?

After spending most of the night messing around between WordPress and Blogger, I have decided to move BACK to my blog at Blogger as my primary “home”…

This blog will continue to be “live” because all my past images are hosted here and it’s a real pain to move everything over again, but going forward, any new posts will be published at my “old” home, which is now my “new” home! (-:

Clear as mud, right? (-:

So, here’s my new, old address:

Thank you all for visiting and come on over to Blogger to see what’s new!

Our boys go back next Wednesday, the 25th! Kinda weird, actually! They go back for a few days, then have a vacation weekend for Labor Day! The school system in NC is quite a bit different than what I was used to living up North, but both my boys LOVE school and do very well, so I guess it works!

For the first time in awhile, I have made a card that is Completely Cricut!!

The apple and tag are from K Andrew Designs and cut BEAUTIFULLY!

I love that it was downloaded, opened in SCAL and cut… no editing needed!

The card is from SVG Cuts, the Breezy Backyard Lever Cards Kit

I’ve used LOTS of their “Freebies” but finally bit the bullet and purchased a kit!

WOW! WOW!! WOW!!!

Talk about easy-peasey!! Open the file and import into SCAL and cut, cut, cut!

Everything is already perfectly sized and proportioned and all the “Extras” really make it worth the purchase price!

The paper for this card is DCWV Grade School Stack. It’s tough to photograph, but the papers are all glittered and textured! FUN! FUN!! FUN!!!

I’m going to enter this into a challenge at Delightful Challenges by Louby Lou. Typically, they ask (but do not require) that one of their images are used, but the challenge is a Back To School using Primary Colors, so this fits!

The challenge at Digi Doodle Shop’s Best is Anything Goes, so I’m entering there too!

Over at Bugaboo Stamps, the Catch the Bug Challenge is Back to School and there’s a chance to win Bugaboo Stamps!
