Welcome to 2014

Welcome to 2014~ Hi, welcome to my blog! I have transferred some of my work from my old blog but I am happy to be adding new items & ideas.
 We, well mostly my husband, like to go Antique Picking, I will be sharing some of our fabulous finds. We do like to keep some of our finds but mostly he resells everything on Ebay. I can't wait to share them with you! It amazes me how some people have no idea what they have, how cheap I can buy it & turn around and sell it for a much larger price. 
I love Photography and I have recently taken some adult classes at the local Community College to help improve my photography skills. I would love to make this a side job or even career some day. 
Scrapbooking has been my hobby for several years, I enjoy coming up with all the page creations and sharing them with you. 
I recently learned how to crochet & loom knit. Working with the looms has made things easier & I can whip out some scarfs a lot quicker, but learning all the stitches is interesting.....YouTube has become a close friend! 

Thank you for visiting my blog, check back daily as I will be adding new stuff all the time! ~ Candi

Happy Holidays!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and received everything they asked for! I haven't posted in a long time....I promise to get better! My computer has crashed and I am in the process of finding someone to get everything off my hard drive....then I will be able to post more pictures. I have tons of work to put on my blog!

Have a great day! ~Candi

Happy Saturday!

Hello! I completed some graduation party invitations this week. I think they turned out great...pop over to my invitation tab & tell me what you think. We found the invitation on Split Coast Stampers website and the lady that made the invite was nice enough to send me the pattern & sell me the retired stamp set.....sweet lady, huh!?! 

I am a librarian at a school grades 4-8th, so I decided to add an Education tab to my blog to share some things I have or will be doing in my library....such as bulletin boards. I know I am always looking for new ideas for bulletin boards as I am sure everyone else is as well. A co-worker & I just did a poetry bulletin board to celebrate April being National Poetry Month. We had her 5th grade class write some poems on the petals of the large flower. I think it turned out cute :)

Have a great weekend!!! ~Candi

Photography

Good Afternoon~  Today I added a Photography page, my photos aren't the best but I am getting better. You know still learning how to use my camera.....I signed up for a 6 week class at the local community college so we will see how my photography changes (hopefully for the better).  As always if you have any hints or suggestions please pass them on....I can use all the help I can get :)

Have a great day!!! ~ Candi  

Create

I decided to bring a little creativity to my craft (scrapbooking) room. So, I went to Walmart, purchased these wooden letters and covered them in paint, scrapbook paper & embelishments. I enjoyed incorporating these letters with the colors of my room. They add a nice splash of color to my Elephant Grey wall.

Graduation Party Invitations

I made these invitations for my son's high school graduation. I used silver ink along with silver & clear embossing powder. The cards were made from the Wild Card cartridge, very simple!
