I am a daughter, sister, wife, mother, friend. I love to craft, garden, shop, hike, travel, ride, read, learn. My favorite people are my loving husband, children and dogs. My favorite places to be are the mountains of North Carolina in the summer and Florida in the winter. I love having the best of both worlds!
>I found this neat button , now somewhere on the right, on a blog that Lesley sent me. For every blog that bears this badge, a tree is planted – click the badge for the link that gives you all the details on where the tree will be planted, and how planting a tree will offset the carbon footprint of your blog. Heaven knows, I need to offset a lot more of my carbon footprints but at least this is a start!

>Blog Changes and some new ATC’s
>My blog looks different today! I’m tryiing to find just the look I want by downloading freebie backgrounds and templates, and of course I don’t know exactly what I’m doing. I really like this background and the new header – now my only problem is how to get my title and description into that cute little frame! Hopefully I’ll figure it out soon. . .
Here are a couple new state ATC’s I made for Swap-Bot – Missouri and Montana:
I sure wish I could figure out how to put the pictures side-by-side too!

>Some New Projects
>I’ve been trying to catch up on most of my swaps through April so I don’t have to worry about them when we leave for Charlotte, Roanoke and the mountains at the end of March. Here are a couple I’ve finished:
This is for a matchbox swap, sender’s choice. I based it on a travel theme, used Graphic 45 paper and filled it with little travel items, photos, stamps, a compass, “dream” word charm and some beads.
A couple ATC’s I made for the Wild Card Traders, Ink. group:
And one for Smokey Mountain:
Tonight I’m working on a scrapbook page of when we went to the Lowry Park Zoo with Adam and Cassie. I’ll post that tomorrow!
