Trying so hard to stay organized - working this week to get caught up...

Is there such a thing as being caught up - and can I do it this week? With only monday scheduled, I hope to push all things aside and get where I want to be - and that is caught up to approx 200 cards thus far into the year. Not hurting for inspiration at all, but definitely hurting for time. But still, with only 5 weeks left of summer ( yes I said it outloud ) I am enjoying my family too! My kids inspired me when we make cards you know!

Card #137 - Trying a new color combo - not so bad? Great patterned paper!

Card #136 - Large sizzix die and small punch - a great set for more to come!

Some of my new favorite colors sets and styles!

Card #135 - Yummy glittery purple cupcake icing and fabulous striped paper!

Card #134 - WHO? A cute owl, and a new embossing folder - Circles - my favorite shape

Card #133 - My new favorite - SIDE FOLD and golden butterflies and beautiful patterned paper

Card #132 - Inspired by patterned paper and white daisies

Card #131 - Gold Butterflies and Friendships

Where I should be...

I should have 197 cards posted if I was doing the one card a day. Well, I can let you in on something - I have 50 cards ready to be photographed and posted! That is a huge step in the right direction. Problem right now is that laundry has to come first.

But I am almost done! SO, I also wanted to let you know that I have plans to submit some of my cards for publication. I would LOVE to be published! Note for the day - may a list of goals - and start working towards them. Make time for yourself. Life is short. Go to sleep each night feeling good about something that you have done for the day.

SEE YOU SOON!

This weeks goal is to get caught up...

Lots of things have been going on, but the best part of all of this is that I finally got a new camera! While I am still learning it, it seems so much better than my other one. It was time to get a new one. In any case, I have been working on cards while enjoying my summer as well. Last night I went through my blog and did a PROPER count of cards. After I get a few more of these up, I will check my calendar and see how far behind I am.
