Everyone knows someone whose life has been affected by a seizure or epilepsy. My Best friend has Epilepsy and is just one of many, 1 in 26 people have or will develop Epilepsy in there adulthood. Epilepsy/seizure disorder is a common condition of the central nervous system, which over 3 million nationwide.


On June 22, 2013 I'll be helping the Epilepsy Foundation Eastern Pennsylvania continue to support and advocate for the people affected by epilepsy/seizure disorder at the annual Summer Stroll. Funds raised through the Stroll will enable the Foundation to expand and support the services it currently provides, including annual education conferences and programs, support groups, and its annual week long summer camp, for the 109,000 children and adults with epilepsy/seizure disorders and their families in an eighteen-county service area of Eastern Pennsylvania.

By being as generous as you can in making a tax-deductible donation, not only will you help me achieve my fundraising goal, you'll also help the Epilepsy Foundation Eastern Pennsylvania continue to offer important programs and services and to develop new programs as well.

Cross Town #3

Hiya everyone!

I know I said that I would be blogging more but I have a problem all the things that I am working on right now I have to keep a secret LOL. I am in 2 swaps, 1 secret project that I don't want to jinx, acts for a meet up later in the year and some journal pages that would get me baned or kicked from blogger if I post them. The only thing that I could show is the jewelry box that I want to make but that is just in the planing stage.

BUT at lest I have the Cross town challenge to post about. Challenge 3 was to make a file folder mini and this is what I came up with. Yes it's a Halloween one but that was the paper pack that I find 1st. I do have some paper but not like many out there and a good bit is Halloween. What can I say I LOVE Halloween.

I used
Graphic 45 paper
file folder (duh)
Craft paint
Lindy's  Spray

I need to still add the ribbon to close it but I couldnt find it LOL.

Cross Town Challenge

Hiya everyone.

I am taking part in a challenge that was put on by Felicia. It's a weekly challenge that she and a friend are doing and said anyone can join. For the info on the challenge click here.

I missed week one on purpose!!! Fel was trying to kill me with card making. I am not really a card maker but I am getting the hang of it but that's not the reason I skipped it. The reason was lest then a month ago I had to make a 100 that's right you read 100 Christmas cards SOOOOOO I needed a break from cards. LOL I will come back to do that on tho.

For week 2 Tracy was MUCH nicer ( I still love ya Fel ) and posted Put a 2013 on it. It could be anything you wanted but you just had to have 2013 on it .

So this is what I made. Its the cover for my 2013 art jouranl. I am using a binder that has a clear front pocket and that slips right into it.



Can't wait to see next weeks challenge and I hope you will join us!!

New Year is here

Happy New Year Everyone!!!




As the New Year has started resolutions come into play. I really tried to think of some this year and all that I could come up with is the usual lose weight, stop smoking and organize. The only problem is that those just don’t mean much I have made them all before and they just don’t stick. Then I watch a friend’s TTMT and she said something that really hit me. She was talking about her resolutions and said the word BALANCE and that’s what I truly need.

I NEED to find that happy balance of family, work, life and crafting. So many things have happened in 2012 the biggest was my surgery and that a lone has made me look at things differently. I don’t want to get all sappy or really heavy on this post so I will not go into detail.

Any way back to 2013 this is some of the things I will be working on.

*I need to manage my online life. I have so many accounts everywhere and I really need to stream line them. I don’t know which ones I will be getting rid of but I will let people know as I do. By the same token I will be using some again. There are some groups that I would really like to get back to as well.

*As far as crafting will that’s in a few parts.

1 is kicking myself in the butt to do more

2 really chip away at the poor forgotten projects

3 post them

*I want to get back to reading blog post again and keeping in touch more.
I know that this will not be a quick thing but I am ready for the quest of Balance and I am looking forward to less stress that it will bring. Hey who know those old resolutions mite finally work out if everything falls into place.

See ya soon

B-Day Doll

Well I told ya that I will be Updating soon so here we go !!

I am very lucky to know an awesome artist by the name of artedar and I am super blessed to be able to call her my friend. Well her birthday was last month I was going to meet up with her and wanted to make something special for her. Any one that knows Dar knows her weakness ..... hand made DOLLS!!!!! So I set out to make a very special doll base off a converstion we once had and this is what I came up with.

her card:


inside of card:

A dear friend once asked me “Does it make you cry when you make dark art?” and I asked “Does it make you smile to do happy art?”  A person is made up of all there experiences in life, the GOOD and the BAD and that effects everything we do. The true answer is that it is all about BALANCE. With all the craziness in life it is hard sometimes hard to find just the right spot to be. We ether fall in a bad state of sadness and never move forward or we live in a state of happy denial that we never fix what’s wrong. This does not mean that we are a bad person just means we need a helping hand.
With that I present to you …..
THE GODDESS OF BALANCE
She will be there for you whenever you find that life is tilting and need a hand to Balance out.





and it was all UIU to boot !! More to come .......
