Good Will --this was your lucky day!

 

Good Will,  This was your Lucky Day!  I finally decided to clean out the spare bedroom  (well , lets face it--there was not 1" of room to set up a bed for our soon to be visitors, My brother Tom and Sis-in -law, Betsey!).  I knew I had to clean the room out some time.   Kristi had come and taken all of Paige's Graduation  stuff to her house to store, and all the volumes of Scrapbooks that I finally got into protective containers, but it didn't seem to make a dent in all the stuff that was left from fairs and other things that has been going on.  I decided that probably 3/4 of the stuff in that room did not need to even be in my  house, so I decided to go through EVERYTHING!   Now there's a reason I did not post the BEFORE picture--I took it---but---- I decided you would all think I should be on an episode of the Hoarders, so I opted out of posting it.  But after Hours of work and sweat and lugging and lifting and flinging and repacking and discarding--this is a partial picture of the stuff going to Good Will.  There was also 5 or 6 Huge Garbage bags of garbage, a huge pile for the kids to go thru and take if they want and lots of empty and 2 or 3 large containers of stuff headed for the basement storage!  and now there is plenty of room to set the bed up---so Come on up, Tom and Bets--we're ready for you! 

 

and on a lighter note, a couple of cards I worked on yesterday after I finished my kids project.  This one below is made from a new Stamp/Die set by Die-namics.  The die is the camera and the stamps (there are tons of them in this set) have sayings related to picture taking and the cute sayings that go around the camera lens.  This set has soooooo many possibilities.  I also couldn't resist using one of the newest washy tapes --the red chevron--on my card.

The card below was just a cute boy card and of course, the dinasaur is on an action wobble, my newest fun item to use in my card making.  and today I found several more creations for using them, so will be creating some of the fun things I found.  So glad Memory Bound will be carrying them now--the possibilities are ENDLESS!

With that said, think I will try a couple of small creations tonight.  Tomorrow, I have to load allllll that stuff into my car and it's already half full, as my husband has been cleaning out our 2 porches and so I have tiny kids bikes and other toys and a computer moniter already in there.  Hope there's room, or I'll have to make a couple of trips I guess.   Good night all--sleep tight!
