My Life In Paper Swap on Ning

This swap required us to make 12 tags that expressed who you were. These were my 12 enjoy learning a bit about me.
Welcome Family: Well this is my first tag and it makes since to me to have it first do to I have always put Family First. I love being around my family and my friends. My home is always welcome to them whenever they need it. I actually life in a small one story house that is from the 50’s I have a mint green bathroom and a EXTREAMLY small kitchen that is yellow. This house originally came with wood floors but for the 13 years that my parents lived in it never know there were really beautiful floors under that shag carpet. So when my husband and I moved in we ripped out the carped and found this wonderful floor. Unfortunately we didn’t have the money to repair some of the floors so we put the lamented floors down right on top that snaps together so that the floors one day could be restored. I wish that I could have more time to dedicated to the house and keep it tidier.
The Bridesmaid: Well, next year we will have to pack the family up for it's Family True First Trip just the three of us. It’s hard to come to reality thinking about that because there is so much that has to happen in order for us to go to NY on our end. Lots of Stress on us and very much work. I am excited about the trip but I get a bit stressed out when I think about what needs to happen to make it happen.
RV Style: Well, my husband and I have been considering the purchase of a RV. Why well, we sell and service most of South Texas and we travel a lot. You never know when a customer is going to call and say we are completely down and need you out NOW!! With this in mind we have been thinking this could be the answer we have been looking for to go to NY in. We would get to travel and enjoy our Vacation a bit more since we will be able to stop along the way and look at some really interesting things. Especially since I have only been around TX, New Mexico, Colorado and I flow to Georgia. My husband has been to just about the same place with a few ads like NY and Wyoming.
The Owls: Well if you were to take a peek in my stamp collection you would find not just a few of these owls but a good handful. I don’t even know why really other then they are so very cute. I don’t even like real owls not to be rude but they are not my favorite animals. I have even been considering the thought of purchasing some dies that are owls for my cuttlebug and cricut.
Amber’s Paw Stop: This is my second job. I sell dog shampoos, treats, custom made clothing, bedding, and greeting cards that I have been making. So far my little business has been doing very well. I am excited about each event that I go to and each time it seems to get a bit better. I hope that one day I will be able to have the money to have a store front selling these items. Please have a click over to http://www.amberspawstop.com/ I can ship just about anywhere. Twenty Eight: Most of my family and friends will not believe me this year when they ask, “How old are you know? And I respond with 28.” I struggle with people taking me serially most of the time since we both look like we are 18 or early 20’s. It’s extremely hard for me to deal with people not taking me serially I tend to get fed up with them and end up finding some body else that will take me serially or I tend to do the job on my own. I guess that is why I decided to make the decision to change my look last month and have my eyes checked and got new frames. For my birthday I wish that my husband and I could have a day to our self’s to maybe take a day trip or just be alone together. (Another opportunity to have the RV.) Go Green: Well I am not really a recycling freak but I do save my paper scraps after I cut stuff and reuse as much of it as possible on other projects. I like to try to think that I am helping by not throw that paper away helps to save something. Maybe not all the time you can save the paper and I have to go throw my paper stash and think how much More Can You Really Get Out of That Paper? and throw it away.

My gum of choice: I chew Trident because it is recommended by my dentist to help keep them healthy.
“I Love Peaches cause there so Delouses:” When I was a little girl my grandma had a Peach Tree in her back yard. We would go pick a peach and eat it right there. It was so YUMMY when they were fresh of the tree. This is one of the snacks that my little girl enjoys eating with me.
H2O: I included this in my tags because I struggle with health problems that REQUIER me to drink up to 4 to 8 bottles of water. Yes I make very many visits to the bathroom but it’s better than the alternative.
The Quickie: We work kind of weird Hours and sometimes we get home kind of late too late to actually eat something really heavy so this is a great way that I can keep my hunger down so that I am not as hungry in the morning.
Yummy: I am lack toasted and tolerant so this is one of the few ice creams that I can eat without much problems. It’s also something that I enjoy sharing with my little girl.

The Great Stamp Swap

Hi ladies Do you have a lot of stamps? Do you have doubles? Do you buy stamps that sometimes end up collecting dust and you have not found that project to use that stamp on just yet? Then you need to check out the Great Stamp Swap!! We on Scrappers Delight on Ning are swapping our stamps that are just this. If you would like to take part in this swap please go to http://scrappersdelight.ning.com/ join the group and go under the Forum categories Swaps Title of the discussion is “Possible Next Swap.” We would love to have you come on over and take part we just completed a swap and we are waiting for our cards.

This Swap Group is not like some of the others where you have to make 10 or 15 cards and send it to everyone. This group is for the busy mom that like to take part in the swaps but does not have the time to make all of the same cards, tags, you get the idea. When we do our swaps you only have to do one item and you will have a random person that you will send your things to. You could have someone in the UK or in the US. It’s really fun to have a person overseas I have had several and their things are so cool it’s like things are way different there. Yes everyone has there own way of creating and that plays a big role in it but to me it’s really cool. Hope to see you come over, have a great weekend. (For easy access I have made the harder the Link to the Ning Group)
