Shabby Chic Card and an update!!

Lovely friend

If you are still with me, I consider you a very lovely friend!  LOL  I can’t even believe that it’s been over two weeks since a blog post.  I was so sick before our trip so I couldn’t preschedule anything.  Then when we got back, we were busy with fieldtrips and end of the year concerts, Graduation etc.  I think that was the busiest week evah!  On the last day of school dh and ds got very sick so it’s been nuts around here! 

The card above using October Afternoon papers and Spellbinders Labels Fourteen die template was in Paper Creations magazine a few months back.  I stamped a Gina K. Design sentiment on to Creative Imaginations Wood paper and then cut/embossed it. 

Are ready to see some paint?  We went from this…

….to this in the last few weeks.  I took the photos below this morning so you can see that our living space is not being….lived in.  We are cramming our family of five into our bedroom and kitchen space.

Not complaining!  I’m super excited to be near the finish line! Here is our dining room with new travertine tile.  It hasn’t been sealed yet but it’s nearly ready for us to move furniture in!  Can’t wait!

And this, is my new favorite room!  I’m loving the light that pours in from the two sky lights and windows.  This was also taken this morning.  Carpet comes on Thursday and hopefully we will be moving in furniture this weekend.

Guess what that means??  A MAJOR scraproom clean out!  Because you guys have been so patient with me, I want to do a nice size RAK as I clean out my room.  I started last night.  I will post a photo of it in the next blog post.

Hope your summer is starting out fabulous!  I’m so happy to have my kids home…my favorite time of year.  ; )
