Happy 2015! I hope you all had a very nice Christmas and a Happy New year!

We have had an arctic blast of very cold weather these past few days. The temps have been -30 or more at night, so today with the temp hovering at 16 degrees it feels like a heat wave has rolled in.
OH MY WORD, I am so glad the chilly weather seems to be over for now.
With that kind of weather it makes it difficult for cars to start, and makes waiting for the bus a major feat in trying to keep warm. So with all the really cold weather I am going through my craft stuff, stamps, fabric and other things one collects with the intent of making unique items. Yes I STILL need to purge more in ALL areas to make it fit in my little spaces I have set up in my living room. I have a LOT of everything! Yes I STILL have more things in the garage to go through as well! As soon as I go through and see what things I want to keep, I will go and price everything and maybe have a garage sale or indoor sale at a later date. If I can cut back on a lot of stuff I should be able to fit it all in the allotted spaces. Selling the other things can bring in much needed things I need, like adhesive. Almost out (you know what they say, "It's all fun and games until the adhesive runs out".

Ok back at the purging, and I will see you later. ;)

We are HERE!

Our new home in Unity!

We are still living with many boxes all over the place, but we are working on getting them emptied out and put in their places.

Yes we still have a lot of snow, even for April! When we get the sun and warmed up temps, that will melt this white stuff.

May you all have a blessed day.

Has it been THAT long since I posted anything on my blog??

Well hello there! Sorry I have been missing so long. We have been busy here with the girls and all their schedules and are now in the process of moving so blogging hasn't even been thought of.

I have been creating and teaching as well and want to have another card making class before we do leave this old house in Knox.

After being here for 13 years I find out just how much stuff we have accumulated! YIKES is all I can say. HOLY MOLY do I have "stuff"!

Right now we are in an arctic cold spell and are trying to stay warm.

Well have got to finish up more packing so I will be back hopefully sooner than later! May you all be blessed!

hello

I found this in my Drafts folder and didn't post it. So here goes! Should also say it was dated August 2011! This is just a little bit of what we have been up to!



Playing with the kittens ALWAYS fun!



making a playhouse during a storm is fun too!



Rubbing Princess' belly, never gets old!



helping with the garden is fun, not to mention hard work!



Watering the garden is fun too!

Album for a Cause

I started Album for a Cause when one of Destiny's classmates was diagnosed with Leukemia. I wanted to help this 12 year old with his medical bills, but the cash flow in the Kendall household is barely a trickle. So my thought was to pick out one of the albums I made and put it in a raffle. I went to a crop in China at the Masonic Hall and raffled it off. I was hoping to get at least $15 for the raffle and was very surprised to raise much more than that! Thank you ladies! Your generosity it breathtaking! I raised $65 for the soon to be teen. Thank you Jesus! This was the album that was donated. All the proceeds will be taken to the school and given to the Principal after vacation ends.

Hello Everyone!

Here is a Christmas Album using a K & Co. paper packet. I have used cardstock for the pages instead of paper bags (couldn't find the size I wanted). This album was very easy to make and allows for some good sized pictures to be included in it.

This is the inside of the album. I have many tags that can incorporate even more pictures or journaling.

This is how the binding looks on the outside. You can also see the back cover.

Baby shower gift

I made this for my hubby's co-worker. They are expecting a girl and wanted a pink themed baby shower. Hope they like this.

This is the cover of the memory box. I also have a 9" x 9" accordian fold album inside.



This is the first page of the album.



Second and third pages.



forth and fifth pages.



sixth page.



Seventh and eighth pages.



Here the album is standing up beside the memory box.



I will be at a rather large holiday craft fair in October in Bangor at the Civic Center. So off I go and work on more items to sell.

Thanks for visiting my little place on the web. Hope you all have a blessed day!
