Can you believe it?<br /><br />In July, my husband and I were part of two wonderful weddings. My cousin, Nici, married her boyfriend, Garret, in a absolutely lovely outdoor ceremony and reception. I was matron-of-honor and my hubby was a groomsman. A week later we were celebrating our friend Matt's vows to his girlfriend, Amber, in the <em>gorgeous</em> church I was married in. I was photographer at that one and Joe was a groomsman again. It was a real treat to see our friends tie the knot! More married couples to hang out with now, haha!<br /><br />I made these wordarts as parts of gifts I put together for the couples, so I thought I'd share them with y'all, too.<br /><br />Nici & Garret's first dance song:<br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/fd6ydh3bgy"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0276s.png" /></a></center><br />And Amber and Matt's:<br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/jznh2xb7z3"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0275s.png" /></a><br /><br /></center>Maybe I'll post again eventually :) Later, y'all.Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905624558092044060.post-51217934100664131462010-04-04T08:33:00.000-05:002010-04-04T08:33:00.131-05:00Old Easter DesignsWell, I didn't have a chance to sit down and make new Easter wordarts, but I thought I'd repost <strong>all four</strong> of the ones I released last year, in case you missed them:<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/xciahe5e06"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0058s.png" /></a><br />*<br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/9449e7vbaq"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0061s.png" /></a><br />*<br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/1oouf04vca"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0060s.png" /></a><br />*<br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/ccjqnlhvkd"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0057s.png" /></a><br />*<br /><span style="color:#cc66cc;">Hope everyone has a lovely holiday!</span><br /></center></center></center></center><center><center><center><center></center></center></center></center>Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905624558092044060.post-2977407472507133892010-03-07T17:22:00.000-06:002010-03-07T17:31:18.073-06:00Close Enough to PerfectHi all!<br />Told you I'd pop in now and then with a freebie, didn't I?<br />This one was framed and given as a wedding gift to my favorite cousin-in-law, Allison, and her new husband Tim. It's a piece of the lyrics from their first dance song, <em>Close Enough to Perfect</em> by Alabama. Sweet song, beautiful wedding, fabulous couple ♥<br /><br /><p align="center"><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/qm4q1mfd2h"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0274s.png" /></a></p><div align="left">Hope everything is well out there for y'all in digi-scrap land :)</div>Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905624558092044060.post-86590209240642051612010-02-19T15:00:00.004-06:002011-09-04T02:19:45.906-05:00Taking a Break (or: Stating the Obvious)Well, I guess by now everyone has realized I am not doing well blogging on here this year. And that's an understatement, LOL.
<br />
<br />I'm going to take a break from this blog. I'm not sure for how long, but I feel as though I need to make a real break on here, rather than keep promising to come back when I may not be up to it..
<br />I truly love making wordart, but I haven't actually scrapped in over a year now. It makes me sad, if I'm being perfectly honest. I don't want to throw myself a blog-pity-party, but I think it boils down to the lack of children and, therefore, a lack of that special focus for my pages. It is fun to scrap my wedding, or high school days, but what I really want to scrap is a baby. So I don't. And my wordart goes unused by me and as time passes, it is harder and harder to sit down to design.
<br />
<br />Thanks so much to all of you who have written, commented, downloaded and been so kind to me. I will be back at the wordart game, I just don't know when. You ladies are wonderful. <span style="color:#3366ff;">I will be leaving up the freebies that are active now. I will also still take orders for previous wordart bunches, so feel free to order them if you'd like, you will receive your order quickly.</span>
<br />
<br />I would like to ask all of you who subscribe through readers to not dump me. I hope to be back again soon. <span style="color:#FA58AC;">And I might drop by very occasionally with a new freebie.</span> I do still love doing this, I am just at a point now where I need a rest. My blog is still pretty new and I am still relatively unknown in the digi-scrap world, so I know I won’t be too missed ;)
<br />
<br />And again, thanks for everything :)
<br />Here's a freebie I had, extra:

Over a month, wow! 2010 has been such a stress for me so far and I have just not been feeling up to sitting down at my computer for extended periods. I am <em>especially</em> sorry I missed my Blogoversary yesterday, but MUCH thanks to Teena for the happy thoughts :)
<br />
<br />BUT I'm back now. I do solemnly swear to make approximately one post a week as I begin the second year of this blog. I love blogging, making the wordart, the interactions with people, the whole deal.. and I <u>need</u> to get motivated to keep up with it.
<br />
<br />I would love to join a forum. That seems to be <em>the</em> way to be social in the digi-scrap community and I feel like it is an aspect I have neglected too long.. My problem is I just don't have the time or energy to devote myself to a bunch of them, the way I know some people do.. I want a place to socialize that is low-pressure, fun, and has a great group of people to interact with. Just <strong>one </strong>for now, and then hopefully I will branch out. Any suggestions? Please! :)
<br />
<br /><strong><span style="color:#cc66cc;">Customers please note</span></strong>: I will be emailing the file to you as soon as I receive the confirmation of payment from PayPal. If the email you would like your file sent to differs from your PayPal account's then please let me know. You will receive your file within 24 hours (but probably <em>much</em> quicker). ANY questions, please feel free to email me, I know I'm working through kinks here :)

Have it made as a gift probably, since seeing it made with just me, Joe and the dog would be a bit of a downer, but I have always thought that these family stitch pictures are <em>adorable</em>. It's a $35 value (not counting S&H), so it is soooo worth it to pop on over and enter the contest!<br /><br /><a href="http://eoberrys.blogspot.com/2010/01/giveaway.html">HERE</a> is the contest link, in case you missed it up there.<br />You have till next Tuesday, the 19th :)<br /><br />I'll be back in a few days with a real post.

I <u>did</u> make a New Year's Resolution to be a better scrapper/designer/blogger. But the new year snuck in with new issues and new ideas and I am left stressed and very busy. Right now there is a lot up in the air in my personal life, so I am sorry to report I will not be online to post for another few days.<br /><br />But stick with me! I <strong>will</strong> be back by next week, with new bunches for sale, freebies to grab, and a lot more. I have plans, my real life is just putting a kink in them for now.<br /><br />Hope everyone is having a good 2010 so far. 2009 was definitely NOT my year, so I'm putting a lot of pressure on this year to be better :)<br />I'll be back soon...Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905624558092044060.post-4720803563143374042009-12-21T23:25:00.005-06:002009-12-21T23:31:44.447-06:00From God's LoveAh well I'm <span style="color:#009900;">swamped</span>. Working all day Monday through Wednesday this week because the kiddos are out of school for Christmas break. Also am missing a couple <em>crucial</em> Christmas gifts and have neglected cleaning my house quite long enough. *sigh. I'll get it together on Christmas Eve, no doubt. Last minute :)<br /><br />Just blowing by to toss y'all a freebie and promise that it will be a resolution for the new year that I be a better blogger/scrapper/etc. Thanks so much for sticking with me and I hope you all have a very <span style="color:#990000;">Merry Christmas</span>.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/aablfycit6"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0267s.png" /></a></center>Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905624558092044060.post-61751279974421236992009-12-15T20:04:00.002-06:002009-12-15T20:07:09.248-06:00Only an AuntSo maybe I should talk a bit more in these posts, instead of just throwing freebies at y'all :)<br /><br />Well my birthday was nice, but I got in a car accident (frowny face). I was in my employer's vehicle as well (SUPER frowny face). Thank goodness the kids I watch weren't in the car with me, and it was really just a bad fender bender, no one was hurt at all. The young lady I hit was -vocal- to say the least. Needs a lesson on how to handle stress; cussing and threatening violence really lead nowhere.. Anyway. I'm just glad no one was hurt and my boss wasn't too angry with me, <em>very</em> supportive actually and I am so grateful for that.<br /><br />December is just so busy, I am having no time to hang out on my computer banging out wordart! I designed Christmas cards for both my sisters, but have YET to get to ours (ouch). I still have a bit of Christmas shopping to do and will be working more hours through the holidays since school is out and the kids I watch will be home all day. Plus my birthday happened (28 is still not quite sinking in) and my <em>NINTH</em> wedding anniversary is tomorrow (<em>happy dance!</em>). Whew! So these freebies I am doling out this month are actually gifts I've made for people. Each one will be printed, framed, and given for Christmas to a family member (mostly on my hubbie's side). With so much going on out here in the real world, I wanted to share with y'all a bit without having to eat up time I need to spend Christmassing!<br /><br />Today's freebie will be a gift for my aunt, Lisa. She lived with my grandparents my whole life and I was very close to them and visited often, so she was always a part of that experience. When I was a kid, she was the one to treat me to Cadbury Creme Eggs, take me to movies in the theater(!), and let me choose the programs on her TV. Now that I'm an aunt, I understand a bit more how precious those nieces and nephews really are. I'm pretty fond of the 17 (going on 18!) that Joe and I share. Especially <strong>my</strong> four :)<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/9jp0nvrg6l"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0266s.png" /></a></center>Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905624558092044060.post-51693179816665106642009-12-09T12:29:00.002-06:002009-12-15T19:49:43.141-06:00Cherish, Hope, DreamIt's my birthday!

It was so gorgeous, Joe and I were out at 1am watching the flakes. They were huge and falling so slowly, it was exquisite.

Mine was nice, my whole family showed up and it was peaceful and pleasant. Lots of yummy turkey and watching all my nieces and nephews be generally cute :)<br /><br />One thing that really struck me yesterday, that I wasn't expecting, was how I missed my Grandpa saying grace. It was always very simple, said with head bowed and hands folded. Something to the effect of: "Dear Lord, please bless this food to the nourishment of our bodies, direct and guide us, in Jesus name, Amen." How I miss his voice blessing our meals. I wish with I had a recording of his grace. It is a precious piece of my life, lost.<br /><br />One more note about grace.. Growing up my immediate family did not pray, but grace was said faithfully at my grandparents' house. And all the adults thought it was so sweet to hear my sisters and I chorus, "God is great, God is good, let us thank Him for this food. Amen." And this went on for years.. Then one year I decided us children should coordinate a new prayer -for Thanksgiving!- and recite it instead, to surprise the grown ups. We were around the ages of 10(me), 6, and 4 years old, three sisters. I coached them for weeks in secret - although I know my parents knew what was going on. The end result wasn't the greatest, but that silly prayer remains firmly stuck in my head. I got it out of a prayer book for children, I wish I had that book... Anyway, today's freebie <strong>IS</strong> that prayer, how cute is that?<br /><br /><strong><span style="color:#cc66cc;">Customers please note</span></strong>: I will be emailing the file to you as soon as I receive the confirmation of payment from PayPal.

Let me be completely honest and up-front here, I have never been much of a Thanksgiving fan. I love the food and all, it's just never been a holdiay I get very excited about. And this year is especially rough after the loss of my Grandpa this summer. Am hoping today goes well.<br /><br />So here is a little freebie for y'all, I hope your Thanksgivings are blessed with the family members you are lucky enough to still have around and the sweet memories of years past with those you've lost.<br /><br /><center><a href="http://www.box.net/shared/e0mup0gqfg"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/wordart/LDD_wordart_0256s.png" /></a></center><br />I'll be back tomorrow with another full post - for sure!

But I always manage to show back up eventually :)<br /><br />Things are doing well here. I'm in the middle of a cold; headaches, stuffy noses, coughs. It's unpleasant. I'm surviving, though.<br /><br />We're having my family's Thanksgiving at <strong>my</strong> house this year. This is the first year we will ever have it away from my grandparents' house, but it is also the first Thanksgiving without my Grandpa, so we thought this might be easier on us all. I hope it all goes well. My hubbie is deep-frying a turkey, yumm. I really need to get busy cleaning house, though!

It was always my favorite costume. And if you were reading my comments on that post, you might've noticed my sister piping up, naming her favorite costume as the Indian (Native American) one.<br /><br />So I rustled up this picture. It's the Kirk girls, Halloween in the early 90's (pre-brother). Randi (me) the witch, Kelley the Indian, and our little sister Jesi, the pumpkin:<br /><center><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/kirkgirls.jpg" /><br /><span style="font-size:78%;">CREDIT: </span><a href="http://ellielash.com/blog/"><span style="font-size:78%;">Ellie Lash</span></a><span style="font-size:78%;">'s </span><a href="http://store.payloadz.com/details/749241-Other-Files-Scrapbooking-My-Pumpkin-Patch.html"><span style="font-size:78%;color:#cc0000;">My Pumpkin Patch</span></a><span style="font-size:78%;"> kit</span></center><br />I vow to now move on to Thanksgiving, thanks for bearing with me :)<br /><br />(If you're looking for winners to my Halloween contest, it's one post down.)Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905624558092044060.post-61130246018373106552009-11-02T21:11:00.000-06:002009-11-02T21:11:46.042-06:00No God, no peaceFirst of all, let me post the winner of my Halloween costume comment contest.<br />I went to Random.org to determine the winner:<br /><br /><br /><p align="center"><img src="http://i669.photobucket.com/albums/vv55/lazydaisyd/random.jpg" /></p><br />Pamela! Congrats! :)<br />Linda & Michelle: Since I am so grateful to you guys for your support, I'd love to send you one of them for free, just for playing along.<br /><br />Just leave a comment here or shoot me an email (chrishel00@gmail.com) letting me know the email address you'd like your winnings sent to (and which Halloween bunch one you'd like to have, if you won a single one).<br /><br />Oh, and just so you know, Kelley wasn't included in the draw because she is my little sister. Not a digi-scrapper, just a fan of me :) :)<br /><br />In other news.. I hope everyone had a fun, happy Halloween! I enjoyed giving out candy and seeing my favorite trick-or-treaters. And then on Sunday the Cowboys won! Whoop!<br /><br />Also: is the time change throwing anyone else a little off? This morning I woke up in a slight panic, thinking Joe was late for work. The sunlight was streaming through the window and I was <u>so</u> <u>sure</u> I'd slapped the alarm clock off and overslept!

I loved my Custard costume (Strawberry Shortcake's kitten) and the Taffy the clown one was classic. But a witch was always my go-to costume and I think I have to go with that as my favorite. It encompasses so many Halloweens; holidays of warty noses and pointy black hats.

Curling up next to our woodstove is the best.<br /><br />And Halloween! While not my favorite holiday, it is a fun one. I am looking forward to handing out candy to all the goblins, ghouls, princesses and superheroes. I'm sad I never got around to trying my hand at a Halloween scrap kit this year, but I swear time just rushes right by me.

I have excuses! Recently I lost another great man from my life, my old band director, Louis Thornton. He was the sweetest man and such an inspiration to so many of his students. He retired my sophomore year of high school and I remember just bawling about it. He called us girls "Sunshine" and it brightened our days. He will be so missed. His funeral was tough to handle, though it was nice to see so many old faces.<br /><br />THEN my hubbie somehow messed with my Photoshop and now it won't load. He has promised to fix it this evening and I will show back up with a post ASAP after that. Thanks for hanging in there with me, I appreciate it more than y'all know.Randihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12372550184289296996noreply@blogger.com0
