<br />
First of all I want to give you a "BIG" thank you for all you have done for me these past couple of months as all of you may know I had hosted my first ever Hello Kitty Swap. Most of the ladies that participated came through with the swap some did not, but it was ok I have the best angel swapper ever my baby girl Nataleigh who has been of great help in this swap :). The swap was due April 29th 2011 and I stopped receiving packages @ the beginning of June.<br />
At this time my family and I encounter a very difficult time in our lives which is the hardest thing we have been through as a family. Faith has kept us going through this horrific time, and I know the Lord has NOT left our side at all. It has been very difficult for all of us and at this time we have just been getting the strength to go on and continue our lives as we have been destined to do. It's not easy but we can do all things through God who gives us strength.<br />
Due to this I did not have time to send out the packages from the swap and most of the ladies thought I was not going through with it it saddens me to think that some of you thought I was keeping your items. First of all I will never do that it is not of my character and those that sent me ugly and hurtful messages I can tell you that I completely understand your point of view, but I do hope that you understand mine as well. Everything is good on my side and I forgive your harsh words and wrongful thinking. I hope you can find in your heart to forgive me for not sending your swap earlier. For my friends that joined the swap and know me very well thank you for believing in me and for encouraging during this difficult time. I love you guys and you know who you are! Thank You. <br />
This is to inform you that all packages are ready to be shipped out and you will hopefully receive them by the end of this week. I will send all packages with a delivery confirmation number. I will contact each person with their number as soon as I have it. Please feel free to leave me comments below and thank you so much for your patience and participation. I appreciate you!<br />
<br />
God Bless You!<br />

<br />
Hope everyone is having such an amazing time creating. As for me between family ties, travel, home construction, school, and homeschooling Nataleigh things have been pretty crazed! Other than that creating has not been one of my top things lately :( Not because I don't want to it's just that my home's construction has me going crazy.... lol but I know things will get better here soon and hey, the Lord will not give me something I can not handle He's just making me stronger.<br />
<br />
I do want to share that I am still waiting on several packages from the Hello Kitty swap for both the tags and the pages. For updated info on your groups please check back on here I usually update the day I receive the packages or latest the day after. I do want to share with all of you the tags for group #4 here is the YouTube video for the tags hope you will like them I absolutely adore them and I do want to take this time once again to thank you for participating in the swap it really means so much Thank You!!! For the ladies that have sent me extras there was no need to do so, but I do honestly appreciate your kindness and I want to say Thank You it means more than you will ever know :) <br />
<br />

after some girl shopping and a quick stop at Michael's for some crafty goodness; we ended up swinging by the Christian Book Store. My girls love going in there and just picking up either the latest Christian music or a few books hat catch their eye. Jeanelle picked up several books, one of them which was <u>God's Girl</u> and Nataleigh picked up a few of her own. Some devotionals for girls as well as a knock knock joke one lol.... she's toooo cute and had us laughing all the way home!!!! I purchased some up for my hubby as well <u>A Father's Almanac</u> Devotional book and another one which I know he would be blessed to read!!!! Last but not least I had been wanting to pick up a copy of<u> Bringing Up Girls</u> a book by Dr. James Dobson from Focus On The Family. I had been wanting to get my hands on a copy for a few months and until yesterday I was blessed to have found it! Finally, I have the so waited book in my hands and have just left of on half of chapter 4. I am so blessed to own a copy of this magnificent and well written book I am impressed to want to read it after listening to a talk show on it and of coarse I have two gorgeous girls and what best than to read it and get advise from this great man of God. Especially in this society where girls are in such a struggle and in a hurry to want to grow up so fast!!!! Will definitely let you know what I thought about it later on so far so good and all I can say is thank you Lord for our beautiful Girls that we are bringing up.<br />

<dd class="comment-body" id="Blog1_cmt-8971884713705141832"> What a beautiful hoop...I had never seen one made, sure interested in making one now, probably for my neieces so they can hang up on their wall...
As for your question, well I always try to buy stuff on sale or with a coupon, and definately the awesome sales after the holidays...TeeHee But, one thing I do for Eater, every year, (semi-embarassed) but I save the plastic eggs...there I said it, Haa Haa Those darn things are so convenient to have for the candies and stuff, but its such a shame when they just get thorwn away once the goodies are out...So I go around and collect them and next year, I whip them out again...kids don't care--as long as they get their candy, they don't care about the container, and the fact that they've probably pick it two or three years in a row...TeeHee
Oops, surper long...well gotta go to the next beautiful ladie....bye.
Peace,

<dd class="comment-body" id="Blog1_cmt-8052307148476979906">Hi, This is my first blog hop experience and I'm having a blast. Love your project the colors are too sweet. I'm thinking my cheapest project made for Easter was last year when I made a Bunny Happy Easter banner for the grandies. It was made of white felt and paper eggs and all made from items I already had stored up so cost me nothing! LOL love your blog tfs Hugs

am so excited to be a part of it :) Thanks so much Linda for inviting me<br />
to join in my first ever Blog Hop participation :) If you are here from<br />
Vero's <a href="http://goldenmomentssometimes.blogspot.com/">http://goldenmomentssometimes.blogspot.com </a><br />
You are in the right Place and thanks for hopping with us.<br />
<br />
As soon as Linda asked me to participate in this fab hop I started brain<br />
storming on what I wanted to do I was so happy she had invited me to<br />
participate and was extremely nervous ..... Instantly I knew what I wanted<br />
to do. Wanting to do a wall hanging at first I figured I would do<br />
a Canvas, but just a week ago I changed my mind and decided to do a<br />
Embroidery Hoop Layout I had been wanting to try one for a while now.<br />
Ok here it is hope you like it my dear friends :)<br />
<br />

The fabric I loved it reminded me of Easter eggs and jelly beans just perfect for this blog hop. The chick and rabbit came from last year's dollar bin from Michael's, but had been saving them because I purchased them after Easter for $0.10. Using some of the lace and ribbon ruffle I had in my stash was fab as well as using some of the left over fabric from a previous project I made the yellow flower and mint green one the other two twisted flowers were a gift from Jo that came with some of the flowers I had ordered from her. The added button was also from my stash. The crochet doillie came from an Etsy shop as well as the white silk flower which came from my ETSY shop @ <a href="http://www.jentaleigh.etsy.com/">www.jentaleigh.etsy.com</a> . I have used a spring sticker that came from Hobby Lobby which came in an Easter Collection and I got on sale for $0.85. The making memories plaque came from Michael's which I found a pack of 12 from $1.49 wow this project was a less than $5.00 can you believe it? I will definitely continue making more of these it was such a fun project to create and very inexpensive. Thank you Linda for letting me share this project in your hop and I have enjoyed creating it so much.<br />
Now for the give away..... This is what you have to do be a follower to my blog and tell me the most inexpensive Easter or Spring project you have made or plan to make. It will be fun knowing what you thought of my project as well. The winner will be announced on Monday the 14th of this month. I will read all comments together with my girls and hubby and we will choose the winner through random.org. Now here's the picture of the prize.<br />

We sure did a long one too!<br />
We took a mini vacation and it was absolutely needed and well deserved we enjoyed it<br />
so much my hubby & I got to spend a whole lot of time with our Nataleigh which was great!<br />
Nataleigh sure enjoyed the attention all to her self we got to go shopping and she was able to<br />
buy a lot of scrapbooking goodies she's very excited about that. I am too because of coarse her mommy needed to get some for her self too... lol. We really enjoyed it and Jeanelle was at a confrence with the academy she attended the Acquire The Fire Christian Confrence and I am glad she did it was a twenty-seven hour conference whit teachings and praise and worship. A life changing experience<br />
which she enjoyed very much and I am thankful for the work that the Lord has done not only with her, but with all the youth that participated in the conference!!!! <br />
<br />

Just wanting to share with you a mini page I created for Karlas001 mini page swap themed lace and pearls. Hoping you will like it as much as I have liked putting it together. This was a bit challenging for me because I made it a point that I wouldn't use any of the craft flowers I sell on my ETSY shop <a href="http://www.jentaleigh.etsy.com/">www.jentaleigh.etsy.com</a> because since I have them handy I do tend to use them a little too much in all my projects. They are beautiful, but I decided I needed to take myself up to the challenge lol.... The paper I used for this page was the K & Co. Julianne paper line which I used the 6x6 sheets because the print of the flowers is much smaller. I used the Martha Stewart butterfly punch as well as pearls, bling and pearlized button. On some of the solids I ran them through my cuddle bug to give them some dimension and I also incorporated some burlap, cotton fabric for the cover. Sheer fabric was used for the making of my small yoyo flowers. Hope you like this page wishing you a blessed rest of the week.<br />
<br />
Many Hugs<br />

<a href="http://www.jentaleigh.etsy.com/">www.jentaleigh.etsy.com</a> the boxes will consist of 30 flower picks and each pick has a minimum<br />
of 4-12 flowers each depending on the size and style of that particular pick. That is a lot of flowers!<br />
All of the picks have never been used and they are in new condition. They are <br />
from my own flower collection. My collection has gone over control and I need to down size.<br />
For some reason every time I get new flowers for the shop I end up with a few picks of my own<br />
so this has really gotten out of control.... lol!!!! The price of each box is $25 dlls it will include shipping<br />
and delivery confirmation. All grab boxes will vary and are not all the same. The flowers are absolutely<br />
beautiful some have been sold on my shop before and others are still even listed!!!! Take advantage<br />
of this box you will not regret it :) <a href="http://www.jentaleigh.etsy.com/">www.jentaleigh.etsy.com</a><br />
<br />

<br />
Okay so now I have to share 8 things about me that a lot of people do NOT know! This will be hard cause I'm an open book lol......<br />
<br />
1. I was an only child until the age of 23 wow!!!! Now I have an 11 year old sister Jocelyn and a 7 year old brother Alejandro. Whom I completely adore!<br />
<br />
2. Hello Kitty is one of my all time favorites if I could I would have everything Hello Kitty, seriously I would, but my hubby wouldn't be so happy!!!<br />
<br />
3. My first name drives me crazy and I DO hate it with a passion, but I will not share it because it is a very common name and I do not want to hurt anyone's feelings...... Sorry I can't share it!!!! Believe me if I could go back to when my parents were naming me I would delete that instant when my parents made that first name decision lol...... <br />
<br />
4. Puerto Rico is by far my favorite place in the world! If I could live anywhere it would be there. I love everything about it and my hubby hopes to one day retire and move there!!!! Seriously I can't wait!!!!<br />
<br />
5. The night I met my husband I was on my last day friend night! I was to go off to Mexico and marry a fiance I had for almost 2 years yup!!!! Isn't it crazy...? I don't regret it for a thing I do believe in Love at the first sight and definitely destiny. I ended up with an intelligent, loving,wonderful, extraordinary and blessed man. What could I say...?<br />
<br />

Sure hope everyone is doing just great!<br />
Things here are so so so feel horrible and can't sleep; I really hate being sick!<br />
Have been on antibiotics so hopefully that will do and sure hope it's soon!<br />
Let me share with you a little something that has happened to my daughter<br />
Nataleigh, she has been hit by the owl fever thanks to Susi from <a href="http://artcsushi.blogspot.com/">http://artcsushi.blogspot.com</a><br />
she's the one to blame for this lol.... Just kidding Susi you know we love you! Susi has inspired us to create these little owls.<br />
Anyway my daughter has been so in love with owls ever since she heard Susi talk<br />
about them :) She just loves those little guys and wanted me to make her some stuffed<br />
owls and I did here are some pictures of the first owl I made her, hope you will like it and<br />

I made the pattern free hand and have used the quilting pre-cut<br />
squares from Hancock Fabrics. I chose this cutesy heart material for the front of the body<br />
and used a coordinating polka-dot pattern for the back. I have also cut and hand stitch a small<br />
heart to put on the back. Felt was used to create the feet and eyes of the little owl as well as<br />
some small buttons.<br />
<br />

Hope you will like the little owl, my daughter loved it! She has chosen a very cute owl print<br />
material in the shades of purple which is her favorite color; to decorate her new bedroom. We<br />
will definitely be busy sewing. We? Yes my daughter Nataleigh and I will make everything from<br />
curtains to bedspread. My daughter has been sewing since she was eight, so this will be a fun project<br />
for both of us. Let me share with you now the owl that she has made herself .<br />

<br />
Hope you will like it and please show her some love. She will love hearing what you think of her sewing. Nataleigh will soon open her own ETSY shop and will be selling these little owls in all sorts of different materials that she has personally handpicked herself. Which by the way she has a great eye to coordinate her fabrics and I can honestly say she impresses me and I sure feel proud of her.<br />
Thank you for stopping by. Be blessed and please don't forget to leave us a comment :).....<br />

<span style="color: black;">night. I guess our day is pretty much set and I can't wait.</span><br />
<span style="color: black;"> Valentine's has to be one of our faves! Hoping to hear your day is lovely and fun!</span><br />
<span style="color: black;"><br />
</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">On another note I do want to share with you that this weekend was fab my friend</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">Vero & I took the girls out shopping on Saturday for their outfits; for their school's</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">Valentine's Day Dance which was a bit of a challenge because they have to follow </span><br />
<span style="color: black;">a dress code. The girls are excited because for once they do not need to wear their </span><br />
<span style="color: black;">uniforms :) . Jeanelle, Ale, and Gabby decided to dress the same and ended up choosing</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">a very cute outfit. We thought it would be nice to book a, Best Friend's photo session</span><br />
<span style="color: black;">here is a picture of them and their Valentine's Day outfit.</span><br />
