Greeting Cards

A few months ago (thanks to Jess) I finally bit the bullet & bought a Cricut Machine. I've ALWAYS wanted one especially since I scrapbook (well not so much lately, but I'm trying to get back into it). Anyway...I could never get myself to buy one since they're sooo expensive. Well...I guess that saying "good things come to those who wait" is true because I was able get one for half the reg price. Thanks again Jess! She was the one who sent me the link to the website having the sale. I'm still learning how to use it, but luckily a few celebrations came up for me to practice. Just thought I'd share what I've done so far. What do you think? Do I have a future in card making? hahaha...j/k!!!

Here's my very first one...
Oh! and here's a couple of others that I did...I did the best I could with the 2 cartridges I have. I'm hoping my card designs will improve once I get more cartridges. There are a few I'm eyeing...good thing Christmas is around the corner! I know exactly what to add to my wish list! heehee!!! =)

My first blog!!!

So...I've been contemplating for months now on whether I should start a blog. I know so many people that blog about their lives (which I love since it keeps me updated) but I just didn't think I had anything interesting to blog about so I figured why bother. Well...with some encouragement from family & friends I FINALLY decided to do it!

As most of you are aware Jaime & I have been struggling to start our own family for over a year now. People are always asking how everything is going so I figured I might as well blog about it to keep everyone updated. Unfortunately, we haven't had any luck yet but with the help of a fertility specialist we're hoping our dream will finally come true! So far we've gone through 2 rounds of treatment. We're currently on our 3rd attempt and hope to have good news soon! I'll make sure to keep you all posted. Until next time...happy blogging to you all!
