MIA & the Faith Sister's Blog Train

I feel so bad that I have been missing in action around here lately- I have been dealing with a herniated disk in my neck which has left me without much feeling in my right arm making designing and even typing pretty difficult. Thankfully I think they have found a solution and I am on the road to recovery but it looks like its going to take longer than I had first expected....

It may take a couple of months for me to get back up and going but for now things will continue to be quiet around here. I wasn't up to participating in the blog train at Faith Sister's this month but I didn't want you all to miss out on it so here is a list of all the stops, there are a lot of great contributions so you wont want to miss this one!

Happy Scrapping Everyone!

I Spy Swap!!!

Well this is a little bit off my regular digital scrapbook stuff but I couldn't help it! I am so excited to be helping out with and 'I-Spy' fabric swap over at Green Apple Orchard. I have participated a couple of times now and it is Sooo much fun I am working on makeing a I-spy quilt with the squares I am collecting for my little boy similar to the one in this post there are also a ton of other cute 'I Spy' ideas here.

There are still some spots open so if your interested in participating you can check out the details and sign up at Obsessive Stitching 'I-Spy' Swap.

Blog Train Links

I am not sure why some times we run into link problems with 4-shared but sometimes it gives people out error or file invalid messages- The link is still up and running but if you have problems hit the back button and try it again- this has worked wonders for me! Happy Scrapping Everyone!

'Bee' Good - LDS Blog Train

When I saw that the theme for this train was the 6 B's I was really excited- One of my first kits was to the theme of "Bee Good" and I have really been wanting to re-make it for awhile. While it is not specifically one of the 6 B's I do think the concept of "Bee Good" is a good B that sums all the other six up. Happy Scrapping!

If you are following the train you came here from Craft With Me and your next stop is Toddlers of Unusual Size. If you get lost along the way the full train list is below-

Life Is Beautiful - Limited time freebie

The recent loss of a young man in our community has really got me thinking lately about how precious and beautiful life really is. I have always loved the song 100 years by Five for Fighting-

I'm 15 for a moment Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming Counting the ways to where you are

I'm 22 for a moment And she feels better than ever
And we're on fire Making our way back from Mars

15 there's still time for you Time to buy and time to lose
15, there's never a wish better than this When you only got 100 years to live

I'm 33 for a moment Still the man, but you see I'm a 'they'
A kid on the way, babe A family on my mind

I'm 45 for a moment The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis Chasing the years of my life

15 there's still time for you Time to buy and time to lose yourself
Within a morning star

15 I'm all right with you 15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live

Half time goes by Suddenly you're wise
Another blink of an eye 67 is gone
The sun is getting high We're moving on

I'm 99 for a moment Dying for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming Counting the ways to where you are

15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 you're on your way
Every day's a new day

15 there's still time for you Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this When you only got 100 years to live

Life is short! Enjoy every second of it! Speaking of short- this freebie 'Life is Beautiful" will only be available for a short time (unitl the end of the month when it goes in my shop) so grab it while you can!
