I've been very busy preparing for crops and classes. I started a WOTG club and that is going really well. I've wanted to use flip flaps now for a long time so I finally found the time (and ambition) to do it. I've received lots of compliments on the layout via facebook so I have written up instructions that I will offer to everyone for free. I would love to see everyone who takes the instructions and creates with them to post pictures of them for me to see. Once I get photos in mine I'll post those as well. I have orders for 6 kits so far, I am very happy with that so tomorrow I will get busy making those. Weekend crop retreat this weekend at the Best Western in Liverpool, looking forward to it very much. Enjoy :)

Fall Layout with Flip Flaps (All cricut cuts are from Artbooking unless otherwise stated)
Stamp sets used are from the Pathfinding WOTG and Sept. SOTM

- Sponge pumpkin edges with olive ink (I coloured the stem with brown marker)
- Stamp “I’m so glad….” Twice, once in olive ink on colonial white and cut out around the inside border. Second one is stamped in barn red ink on barn red CS and cut out around outer border. Use dimensionals to adhere them together.
- Use scraps of pathfinding to fill in the leaves on the tree (I used a pencil and traced lightly the inside of the opening in the tree and then cut about an eighth of an inch bigger than where I traced. I then erased the pencil mark and glued it in place.
- Cut 2 sets of leaves from pg 72,@ 2 ½” in Barn red and in gold rush (use 3 on this page and 3 on the other page.
- Large piece of B&T is cut 5x12

- Mat under 4x6 flip flap is cut @ 5x7
- Mats in and under flip flap are cut 4x6 – one is glacier blue and the one underneath is colonial white
- Arrange to your base page and glue in place.

I am starting by choosing a team name. I have some ideas, but I'll wait to see what the rest of the team thinks and go from there. My long term goal is to get to Convention in 2016. I have so many ideas, it's hard to focus on one thing. I know I need to do one thing at a time or I will get very overwhelmed. I am going to continue doing my SOTM club, and I am going to add to that a Card Stock club. I have a lot of ideas for classes, crops in Liverpool and Bridgewater twice a year will continue as well as a few day crops here in Greenfield. I'll update with my plans once I make them. Thanks so much to everyone of my customers for your continued support!

I will be using this as a Class for Liverpool and then donating it to the Greenfield Elementary School Annual Fun Fair Silent Auction. If you're interested in doing this class at the crop it's $10. Just let me know :)<br />
This next one is a little different, but same colour theme:<br />

This has already been donated to an auction to raise money for Operation Smile. Now I need to get onto making some other things. I have a lot to do/make in the next 3 weeks. Oh well, I work well under pressure!Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12975487822866012789noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1215751377113507519.post-50853502201515205592013-04-03T19:10:00.000-03:002013-04-03T19:10:50.254-03:00It's only 2 weeks and 2 days until the my first crop of 2013! If you haven't already signed up, and want to let me know, there is still room for more! I would like to have payment sent to me asap for those that have signed up. It's $10 for Friday, $25 for Saturday and $15 for Sunday. It is $10 for lunch on Saturday, I need to know before the 16th if you plan to have lunch. It's "make your own" sandwiches.<br />
Remember Kristy will be there with lots of goodies to purchase from scrapbooking café online.<br />
Here is the mini album being offered as a class on Saturday afternoon. The cost is $15 and can be paid at the crop, but please let me know if you want to make it so kits can be made in advance. There will be other classes posted in the next few days so keep checking back!<br />

Welcome to the first Blog Hop of 2013. Our January Hop is featuring a “Consultants Choice”, so each consultant has a unique project to share with you. I hope that you will take the time to leave comments on our posts, as we love to get feedback from our viewers....whether it was something that you really liked or some new technique that was used th<span class="text_exposed_show">at you would like to learn how to do by leaving us comments, we get to hear what you like, and what you want to see. Thank you… now on to our hop! </span><br />
<br />
I was very close to not getting in on this hop with all the "stuff" that's going on right now, but rather than stressing over coming up with a new project, I chose to show you one I made way back when I first started to sell CTMH. This is from 2007 and unfortunately uses retired paper and stamp set, but could be easily adapted with new fresh papers and stamps :)<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The base is a just a plain file folder. The paper is called Majestic Blue and as I mentioned above it is retired. I used a chipboard "B" and the coluzzle to cut the letters on the front. The card stock is outdoor denim, crystal blue and desert sand. The strip of desert sand on the front is a faux belt. It is kind of hard to see in this picture.<br />

On the inside, each side of the folder is layered in graduated size card stock showcasing my boys throughout a 5 year period.</div>

In this Hop you will find that each consultant has created a 3D item of their choice from the Artiste, we were told it could be anything as long as it was a Christmas theme. So I made ornaments. These are approximately 4" in diameter.<br />

The summer, as always, has been a blurr. Poof....gone. It's been good and it's been bad. The good was going to the Sates for a week with Moyal and Quinten. We just went to Bangor, Maine and Preques Isle, Maine. Lots of shopping and some relaxing while Moyal did some lumberjack shows. It's great that we can have a vacation and do a few lumberjack shows while we're there to pay for the trip. If he ever stops competing I'm afraid I won't get to go anywhere, but for now we travel fairly often. <br />
It was on one of our day trips to a lumberjack show that we had the "bad" part of our summer. Brandon came with us to the Rogersville show on Canada Day and had an accident while doing the spring board chop event. He fell off his board and the axe that he had in his one hand came slicing through his upper right arm. It happened right in front of our eyes and it happened so fast. All I saw was blood arcing from his arm, I thought at that point that he had cut bone and all, but I found out once I was by his side that it hadn't. Between his father and a few others they had the bleeding under control and holding him in a sitting position and making him move his fingers. It took 45 minutes for the ambulance to arrive. This was the first year they didn't have an ambulance on site. Hopefully the last. I drove with the ambulance to the Miramichi Hospital because they said it was the closest. On the way there the guy in the back with Brandon moved his arm and opened the cut and it started to bleed again. He yelled to the driver to pull over and get back with him, it was very scary to say the least. Moyal was behind us and had the side door of the ambulance opened so fast, he wanted to help but they didn't realize it was Brandon's father so they wouldn't let him. They got the bleeding back under control and we continued on. Lights and sirens blaring. I was shocked at the amount of people who don't pull over for an ambulance. The girl driving says it is like that all the time. I was disgusted.<br />
So after we made it to the hospital one of the doctors in emergency came to talk to us in the waiting room and told us they would be airlifting Brandon to St. John to try to save his forearm. If I would have been standing, I would have passed out. I was in total shock. Vital and Antoinette were with us still at this point, because they had drove Moyal behind the ambulance. Antoinette being the religious person that she is, later told me that she instantly prayed for Brandon and his arm. <br />
I wanted at this point to see Brandon, so they let me in where he was being closed in the gurney and ready for flight.<br />

There was a second doctor in the room who started talking to us and seemed to be very positive about the outcome. This surprised me, so when he turned to leave the room I was on his heels. I asked him about the possibility of Brandon losing his arm and he looked very surprised that I would even ask. He said the previous doctor shouldn't have told us that and he didn't feel that was a possibility at all. The relief I felt right then and there cannot be expressed in words! Moyal and I both looked at one another with some hope that everything might be OK after that.</div>

It was the longest drive ever, from Miramichi to St.John. We had to swing into Rogersville to pick up our van on the way, and Vital and Antoinette said they would be along after an hour or so to stay with us for the night. I can't thank them enough for that. Them and coffee...coffee really helped. By the time we got the hospital, I had spoke with dad on the phone who had already called Uncle Wilfred who lives close by to go over to be with Brandon so he wouldn't be alone. He was outside emerg when we pulled up and had already spent 20 or 30 minutes with Brandon. They were prepping him for surgery when we showed, so we got to see him which was so good. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
They had a vascular surgeon who is the best in Atlantic Canada on call, thank God and he also needed a plastic surgeon. He went into surgery shortly after 10pm. The accident happened around 4pm, so it's been 6 hours with no blood running to his fingers, we knew they had to do something quickly. While he was in surgery Vital and Antoinette showed up to keep us company. Their son, Luc, lived nearby and was away on vacation and gave us his house to stay in for as long as we needed it. That was blessing because we were there for a week. We had hoped he could be moved the next day to Halifax or Bridgewater so we could go home, but he wasn't allowed to move until the artery closed. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The surgeons came to talk to us while we waited. First the vascular surgeon who took care of the artery. He said he was very pleased with what he was able to do and he was very hopeful that his arm would be functional after it healed. A little later the plastic surgeon came and told us that he had connected the large nerve and the bicep and lots of other things that were sliced. He said it would be at least a year before the nerve would heal enough to know the full extent of the damage. They both said it was such a clean cut from the axe being so sharp that it made it quite easy to find all the ends of everything that needed to be connected. </div>

So here we were, with no change of clothes, because it was just a day trip, Rocky and Quinten at home alone. Brandon would be there for a week before they would discharge him. He really wanted Chantell with him as well, so between Annette and mom and dad, they got clothes for us and picked up Chantell and headed out for the 6 hour drive to St. John the next day. They arrived that evening in time to visit for a little before we all headed out to get some rest. Vital and Antoinette had gone back home in the morning and left us Luc's key so we could come and go as we please. We stopped and had dinner at an Irving that night on the way back to Luc's. It was the first thing we had eaten in a couple days. It was really hard to close my eyes for a long time, all I could see was the whole thing happening all over again. I still do sometimes.</div>

He's a very lucky boy. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Again we had an out pour of help from so many people. Too many to name, all of the competitors in the New Brunswick Lumberjack Association, my family, and friends like Mike and Shelley and Bruce Inglis. They all did some amazing things for us all. Uncle Wilfred and Marie keeping us well fed and send care packages to hospital for Brandon and Chantell and Sue and Kim for doing the same. Shame it had to rain on our picnic! lol</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So all in all, we are very blessed to still have Brandon with us and his arm. He is going to both Physical therapy and Occupational therapy where they are both very pleased with his progress thus far.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Soooooo........other than that it has been a good summer. Quinten and I went to loft 2 times this summer. I hadn't been down to stay overnight in 4 years. Wow. He and his friends fished from the wharf and dad took us out in the boat to fish, I read and relaxed. Both times we were down were amazingly relaxing and fun!</div>

These are just a few I made for a friend who needed Thank You's after her dad's passing.<br />
<br />
I am working on some fun stuff for the fall. I am hoping to start re-doing the rooms in the house one by one. I'll try to do before and after shots to post. I want to start next week in the entry. I plan to go to Halifax in the morning to finish up school supplies for Quinten. I have crops and classes planned...a few projects are started, but not completed. I have 2 more months of SOTM club before we are done for this year as well. Oh, and I am going to join the Canadian CTMH Blog hop starting on the 15th of this month, I better get busy on the project! Lots to keep me busy. Right now I am making a huge roast chicken dinner and waiting for Brandon and Chantell to arrive to enjoy it with us. <br />
Have a great Labor Day everyone!<br />

I had another CT scan and the spot on my liver is indeed still there, but it hasn't gotten bigger, which is good news. The doctors tell me it's nothing to lose sleep over. Easy for them to say, but what can I do. My family doctor is contacting my oncologist and my surgeon to see how long to wait until I have my next one. So in the meantime I needed a distraction so I decided to start holding a crop every 4-6 weeks here in Greenfield. The first one was a great success. I had 15 people or so and I think everyone was quite productive. I have some wonderful ladies (and my sister....lol) involved in the SOTM club again. March's project was :<br />

I don't know where the time went. Our tree is down and decorations put away....except for the snowman collection..... for another year. No New year's resolutions here yet, but I am trying to come up with something by the end of the week, I don't believe it needs to be made on the very first day of the year!!<br />
I am feeling much better since having my last surgery on October 22nd. I had my ostomy reversed. It's been challenging to say the least, but I would rather this than continue through life with an ostomy. I consider myself lucky to have been a candidate for the reversal. The surgery went so much better than the first one. I was only in hospital for 3 nights. Doctors say it can take up to 2 years before I know what my "normal" is going to be. I have good days and I have bad days, I can't make plans until last minute unfortunately, but I still get to do things....that is the main thing.<br />
The regular cancer screening regimen now starts, I had a CT scan before Christmas that showed a spot on my liver so in 3 months they will do the scan again. The doctors say it may be just a shadow, but until that is determined for sure I will be a little uneasy. I want to stay busy building my crafting business to keep my mind occupied. The new CTMH catalogue is in my hands and is very inspiring so that should be easy to do. I have nothing new to post today but very soon I will........Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12975487822866012789noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1215751377113507519.post-18422856323999572482011-09-24T18:45:00.000-03:002011-09-24T18:45:37.139-03:00Some cards....I haven't been doing a lot of crafting but I've been doing more than I was. I am sooooooo looking forward to going to New Hampshire next week. We're going for a week so I wanted to make sure I had the October club cards finished. I did that today and I did a cute Hallowen card at Annettes last Friday.<br />

The year has been a blurr but I am still here. Weeks of chemo and radiation, a port-a-cath "installed" that didn't work and had to be removed weeks later, a pick line that got infected and developed a blood clot and then there was the surgery. There were days when I thought I would die but after 2 weeks they sent me home, only to catch the stomach flu from the kids and send me back to hospital for IV fluids. After some weeks of recuperation chemo started again but I couldn't tolerate the drug, (large rash) so after 2 days and 20+ IV attempts in my hands and arms they stopped it so they could figure something else out. I then started on the once every 3 week regime. I was pleasantly surprised when I was finished after 6 treatments. Apparently since I had 2 doses of the first drug, 6 was enough of the second drug. Tears of joy were rare this past year, but I had them that day. <br />
So no more chemo for me. <br />
I am starting to feel more rested because that was 3 weeks ago. The day after that last treatment we went to the states for a few days, it was nice but rushed, not a lot of time to relax. When I got home I crashed for 2 solid days. <br />

So since last entry I have had my 4th chemo treatment. They consistently give me the same side effects. I always have then on a Tuesday and the next day I am tired and my appetite starts to decrease, then by Friday I have the usual joint and muscle pains that last a few days with some queasiness. The next week I am usually drained of all energy and take frequent naps. I usually have a few good days before turning around and doing it all over again. I still realize how good I have it compared to so many people. My chemo doesn't make me puke continuously or make me lose my hair, give me sores in my mouth or peel the skin off my hands and feet. There are so many others out there going through all of that. I am thankful I'm not one of them. <br />
<br />
The community (Bonnie Croft organized) another benefit evening in my honour. They did a variety concert and dessert night that brought in more than $1000. Such a wonderful community I live in. Right now we are getting Brandon through graduation formalities. He took a longtime friend (Sam Daniels) to prom with him.<br />

We had a dinner party with Kathy, Cory, Mike, Shelley, Cindy and Craig last night and we couldn't even use the patio set because it rained......go figure...... We had a great time though, it was the first time we'd all been together in a very long time.

Mind you I have been quite busy this week. On the go everyday until now. I started the new chemo drug this week. Number one side effect is flu like symptoms with aches in the muscles and joints. I certainly had that, but the weather was real crappy too, so who knows what it was from.....anyway, I feel better today. We're not doing anything special for Easter, the kids are too big to do anything with, they'll get the usual junk, but that's it. Mom and dad are coming up for brunch on Sunday, so I'm making a carrot cake today for dessert...mmmmmmm.....hopefully there will be some left for them.<br />
I've sold quite a few cards at the store so far, I plan to get some more ready today and delivered just in case anyone needs some last minute Easter cards.

I've been struggling with doing a scrapbook layout and I think the only thing to do is to pack it up and put it away. It's been sitting out for days now with no progress. I need to focus on some other things right now. I am going to a crop for compassion in Chester Basin on Saturday, so I need to come up with a few things to have for classes. Thank God for Annette's help. After that I need to start making some cards. Stew is going to sell them for me to raise money for the Relay for Life in June and then Annette and I are going to do a Crop fund raiser at the firehall on May 7th. On top of that I have my regular club gathering that I need a 6x6 page layout for in a week and a new group starting this month as well. Creative block better go away soon, I also need a little ambition. I had lots yesterday. Got groceries in the morning, came home and after putting them away I scrubbed the bathrooms. Moyal put new doors on all the bedrooms, which made lots of mess. I swept and vacuumed all the bedrooms, cleaned Quinten's room and then made 3 big homemade pizza's for supper. Needless to say after I ate I crashed, when I got up I went to bed. Now I have to sweep downstairs again because the dust has settled again and mom and dad are coming for a visit. <br />
Tomorrow chemo starts again. Again it seems like time is flying, I thought it would be forever before I got to this stage. I take the chemo everyday for 5 days and then take 3 weeks off and then do it all over again. This goes on for 4 months. I'm not nervous or upset. I feel quite confident it will go well. I didn't have too many side effects last time from the chemo, so hopefully I won't this time either. So by the end of August or the first of September I should be ready for my next surgery. I still haven't gotten my disability to kick in and I'll soon be able to go back to work. What a pain. Well, I must get my work done and get dressed and start the day.Hopefully I will have a photo of something scrapped to add later today.Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12975487822866012789noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1215751377113507519.post-4969119031098815242011-03-15T19:56:00.000-03:002011-03-15T20:01:22.576-03:00Surgery is finally behind meI know it's been a long time since I wrote, but I am just starting to feel like myself. The night before my surgery I didn't sleep at all, we were up at 3am and on the road by 4am. I was the first person to check in for surgery once we got to the VG. I sat in a corner in my Johnny shirt and hat waiting nervously to move to the operating room. Around 7am or 7:30am they introduced me to the residents and my OR nurse and told me it was time to head to the OR. Moyal walked me to the doors, I was shaking like a leaf and Moyal had tears welling up in his eyes. He kissed me and then I went through the doors. I never wanted to run more than I did right then. I got up on the stretcher/bed and they started trying to get an IV in me. It's never easy to get an IV in me, my veins are miserable. While they are poking me they are trying to decide what they are going to do with my legs for the surgery because my knees don't bend and normally you have your knees bent up in stirrups, but I wasn't able to do that. They called Dr. McIntyre into the OR and thought they would keep me awake to get me in position, but, thank GOD he said " No, put her to sleep". It was right after that I was gone.....................When I woke up in the recovery room, I don't remember feeling pain, I actually don't remember feeling much of anything. It seemed like time was standing still. As it turned out I was in there for a very long time. It was suppertime before they moved me to a room. I remember seeing Moyal when I was in the hallway of 9B waiting to go into my room. He had spent from early that morning until then waiting for me and the nurses made him wait even longer until they get me situated in my bed. I remember thinking, " how am I going to get into a different bed when I can't even lift my head?" Well, they put a backboard under me and lifted it and plopped me on the other bed and then pulled the backboard out. After doing my vitals they Moyal in, Annette and Mom came in to see me and then they left right away. I don't really remember those first few days, except Moyal was always there. Early in the morning helping me get cleaned up until late at night when I was ready to sleep, ( not that I didn't sleep through the day while he was there too).Surgery was on a Friday and I think it was early on Sunday morning when the resident came in to see me I was so nauseated I couldn't breathe. He told me I would need an NG tube. Well I didn't know what that was but I needed relief. The nurses came in with this tube and a glass of water with an elbow straw. One nurse stuck the straw in my mouth and said "drink" while the other nurse proceeded to feed this tube in my nose and down my throat. Not pleasant, especially when it got stuck halfway and she had to reposition it to get it in the right spot. This tube then gets attached to a very noisy machine and sucks the green bile out of my stomach. It was really gross, a litre came off in no time and just kept coming. I thought at first it was going to be pulled later that day and I could start trying to have some fluids, boy was I wrong. I had that tube down my throat for 8 days. On the last day I was allowed to have a Popsicle. It was the first thing I had to eat in 12 days. During those 8 days I developed an external infection in my incision and the doctor had to open it to let it drain and then the dressing needed to be changed a few times a day. The holes would be packed with gauze and lots of it, it grossed me out so bad, it hurt too. I had dalotted hooked up to a push button, so I would push my button a few times before the dressing change to get a little relief. After a few days they thought my ostomy wasn't working the way it should so they sent me for a CT scan and found that I had a blockage. Just when I thought I couldn't be shocked by what they do to my body, the doctor pulled out a catheter that he was planning to put in my stoma and through my intestine. I thought I would pass out just at the thought. As it turned out it didn't hurt and it did work on the blockage. It took a few days but it finally slowed down to close to normal output. Every night I was in there I would have hot and cold sweats. It was aweful, I would wake up drenched and freezing, my temperature was up and down all the time. After about 5 days with the tube down my throat one of the nurses seemed to think I was still expelling way too much bile so she had the doctor order an x-ray to see if the tube was down too far. It wasn't until the next day that they came and told me indeed it was down 10cm too far, so they pulled it up 10cm. I remember having a really bad day on the Thursday after surgery, I had company that day, Stew had come in the afternoon and Mike and Shelley were there in the evening. Quinten had taken the day off school to come in and visit with me, luckily he was asleep in the afternoon when I started throwing up the green bile, even with the tube down my throat. That is a taste I never what to experience again. So finally after 15 days in hospital they finally let me go home. I was so home sick at that point all I could do is cry even though I was packing to go home.Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12975487822866012789noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1215751377113507519.post-45336564765155032132011-02-10T09:16:00.000-04:002011-02-10T09:16:53.762-04:00Tomorrow is coming closerI just want to go to bed and when I wake up have it all over with. Last night I didn't want to go to bed because I didn't want today to come. No more eating for a while. My last meal consisted of salad, mashed potatoes with lots of butter and salmon with homemade lemon meringue pie for dessert. It was yummy. Today I get to have consomme, apple juice, water, power aid....you get the picture. They told me I won't have anything even to drink for a couple of days. I guess everything I need will go through my IV, I just hope I don't have to deal with hunger pains, maybe they'll keep me drugged enough I won't know I'm hungry. I keep trying to imagine what the change I am about to experience is going to be like. I can't imagine how I will feel. I know pain, so I am not afraid of that, but I am afraid of what I don't know. I know a lot of people live with a colostomy, I just need to find a way to deal with the change in lifestyle.Suehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12975487822866012789noreply@blogger.com0
