It was bound to happen.......

...the media card in my camera went bye-bye and I lost a bunch of darling pics of my grandbaby! I didn't find out until I went to print some at work today and the computer wouldn't read my card. I just thought the darn things had gone bonkers again, so decided I'd just download them from home and pick them up in the morning. OH NO! Not so fast! My computer here won't read them either and it gives me a "card error" message when I put it in the camera. So, it looks like I've lost those......

I'm sad. =(

Group #3 finished!

In the TSR layout swap I'm in three different groups this round. I know, crazy as it may seem, I do like to do these things! Group #3 is to be generic, so I did the best I could so they could be used for any gender or ocassion. Without further ado, here is the unveiling of that set. The title will go into the upper left hand corner. Hope you like!

"Oh bother......."

Now I know how Eore feels! I didn't make the card design team. "Oh me, oh my!" (all said in my best Eore impression with my head down and tail dragging.)I knew it was a long shot, but I was still hoping it may happen. Guess I just better polish up my techniques for the next time!

Thanks everyone for the words of encouragement. It really means alot!

I did it!

I got the courage to submit some of my cards for a chance to become a Design Team Member at Sketches! {by tamara} . I'm a bit nervous about it, but I just LOVE her sketches and the current DT's fabulous creations. Here are the ones I submitted:

Dad

How we miss you! It was two years yesterday morning when you held our hands and drifted away. You looked so peaceful and we knew you hurt no longer. The Angels came and took you with them to a better place in the heavens.

I know you're still here amoung us because I hear you and feel your presence. Our walls bare your photos and we pass them by every morning and throughout the day. I especially love the one by the front door of you waving, as to say "I'll be seein' ya!" I think that one is my all time favorite! The playful smile, the happiness in your face, that is how I want to remember you:



We look at those photos of you with Makayla and see the gentleness you had within you. I only wish you could have been here longer so she could get to know her Great Grandpa and the great man that he was. You had your quirks, but who doesn't.

You were the Dad I never had. You did not judge, but encouraged. You were there for me when I was going thru some terrible times and loved me for who I was. I didn't have to prove anything to you, just be myself.

I love you, I miss you!
