Thanksgiving + Turning 29

Posted on November 22, 2012 by Cherie

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you are all enjoying your feasts out there today. Soon I’ll be heading over to my Moms for an evening full of food, fun and maybe just a little chaos. That’s what the holidays are for right?

Well today is not only Thanksgiving but it also my birthday. Today I turn 29…eek! How can I possibly be twenty nine already?!?!? As I was thinking about turning another year older and only one year away from thirty I started freaking out a little. When I was younger I would think ‘oh by the time I’m thirty I’ll have it all figured out’ no this is not the case. And I’m sure over the next year that will not happen either. However I did realize one thing, instead of being sad about getting older and not accomplishing everything I thought I should have done by this time. I should be thankful to be having another birthday. Not everyone gets the chance to turn twenty nine. So today I am feeling blessed. Blessed to be a year older, blessed to have such a supportive husband and family, and blessed for this great life I have.

May God bless each one of you this Thanksgiving!

New Item Thursday

Posted on November 15, 2012 by Cherie

Well, I’m not officially starting New Item Thursday back up just yet. However I am posting some new items and well it’s Thursday, so here we go! New Holiday and Christmas items:

My intent was to use one of these for my December Daily but I can’t decide which one I like best.

My new packaging…I’m so excited about it!!!

Today I spent hours rephotographing and listing products. And there’s even more to come tomorrow!

I’ve been like a little elf around here getting ready for Black Friday..wink, wink.

Check out the current progress!

My Love mini

Posted on November 8, 2012 by Cherie

This is a quick little mini I made my husband for his birthday. He’s very hard to shop for so I decided something to show him how much I love him would be better than a different gift.

It was super simple to make. I just sewed together three sheets of paper then folded them in half.

And please ignore my chipped Halloween nail polish!

Have a great day!!

wonderful weekend

This weekend I got to attend a scrapbook getaway at the lovely Kona Kai resort hosted by Scrappin Escapes. It was SO much fun! We scrapped until the wee hours of the morning (like 4:30am!) got up and did it all again. My checks will be hurting for a week we laughed so hard!

How amazing are these sunsets?!?!

The hotel was beautiful and the weather couldn’t have been nicer. If you ever get a chance to do something like this I will highly recommend it. I’ll share some of my project life progress later in the week. You will definitely catch me there next year!

ohh spooky…

It’s almost that time

Hello! Hopefully every one’s week is off to a good start.

My mind is in full on Christmas mode. Usually this time of year I’m annoyed that you can barley find Thanksgiving stuff because the stores have packed up Halloween and already put out Christmas. However this year it’s different. I’m dying for Christmas time to get here! I’ve been making decorations, creating new products and of course starting on my December Daily album.

This is a little peek at whats to come. Very rough hot off the press cut 🙂

And I know I’ve been complaining about the heat but that’s nothing compared to what everyone on the East Coast is going through. So I’ll take the heat over a hurricane any day. No more complaining 🙂

Praying for the safety of everyone over there!

Project life card swap

Posted on October 27, 2012 by Cherie

On instagram @schonakessler hosted a project life card swap. Each person makes 15 cards, sends them to her then you get back 1 cards made by other people. I decided to join in the fun! This is a sample of the ones I made for the swap. It was so fun creating these, I can’t wait to see what the other girls came up with!
