Unfortunately the quality of my pics are not that great at night. You know with the no natural light and all that, but anyways, I wanted to share one more before I called it a night! Oh and it doesn't help that my camera is kaput...I'll have to use my cell to take pics for a little bit, or at least until I decide to get a new camera.</div>

I was checking out one of the live videos they have on Ustream, and I won something, not sure what it is, but I won something just for being there and chatting. <br />
<br />
Ok, well I actually won this on March 15, and am still waiting for my prize to arrive...I can't wait to see what I won.

It's been a little bit since I posted so I thought I would share a few things that I've done in the past Month, which isn't very much. Actually I think there is more but not quite sure what else. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are two 8.5x11 Layouts, I wanted to try out the size since I've never created anything besides 12x12, and well, I kind of like the size, but I do find it more challenging to create on such a smaller scale. So really, I think I may just stick with my usual 12x12. But I do like how they turned out. </div>

And as some of you know I went to Crop & Create Moncton for the first time this year. Well, I took 3 classes (I'll share those LO's and projects later on), I used up some of the scraps from one of the classes to create this layout of my older son when he was in grade 3, I love it!! It turned out just the way I wanted it to.</div>

Today is a sad day for me, I had to say goodbye unexpectedly to a furry member of the family. My cat, Rex, had been missing for 2 days. Which is very unusual for him, as he usually was home every night at the same time for his treats and cuddles with mommy. But last night he didn't come home, as much as I called him,he just didn't come home and he was not one to wonder as he was getting older (16yo), and like to stay around the house. This morning I tried calling him again he did not come home....looked all around the house & even in the camper before heading out to work. Well, when I got home tonight, I tried calling him again, and I spotted him laying under a bush in the back yard....unfortunately he was not coming home. I'll miss him, he was part of our family for 16yrs. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He'll be missed for a long time.</div>

I have been following <a href="http://myscrapsandmore.proboards.com/index.cgi" target="_blank">My Scraps & More</a>'s Birthday Sketch-a-Thon challenges and have finally been able to complete one of the challenges.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's the sketch I had to work with:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I had so much fun last night with this challenge, I haven't been scrapping all the much lately and found that I need more inspiration these days to get my mojo going...winter does quite a number on my creativity, I am totally drained! But this was just the boost I needed!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Have you ever had some people in your life that just were not good for you? Well, I have discovered that I have quite a few negative people that needed to be cut out, I don't need to have them trying to bring me down anymore, using me, hurting me...I've just had enough! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
People can be so hurtful at times and I admit I am not perfect and have been hurtful to others as well, but I try to now stay away from all that drama and for some reason it still seeps its way into your life. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am no longer be a doormat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will no longer be hurt.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will stand up for what I believe in.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will not be let down.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will be true to who I am.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
and...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I promise from this point on I will try and surround myself with only people that are good for me...I try and follow this little saying...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong><em><span style="color: purple;">Free yourself from negative people.<br /> Spend time with nice people who are smart, driven and like minded. </span></em></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong><em><span style="color: purple;">Relationships should help you, not hurt you. </span></em></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong><em><span style="color: purple;">Surround yourself with people who reflect the person you want to be.<br /> Choose friends who you are proud to know, people you admire, who love and respect you – </span></em></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<strong><em><span style="color: purple;">people who make your day a little brighter simply by being in it. <br /> Life is too short to spend time with people who suck the happiness out of you.</span></em></strong></div>

It's not much, but it is a dedicated craft room for me and a little spot for my little guy to use as well. <br />
<br />
<div align="center">
Here is a before pic. I decided it was time to organize my room a couple of months ago. After purchasing a few Jetmax cubes from Michael's, it was finally time to get my room put together again. So as you can see it is quite messy, I had a lot of supplies on my little guys old change table, well it was time to get rid of it.</div>

<strong><u>AFTER</u></strong></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the new space it has given me by getting rid of the change table! I find it now easier to find what I am looking for and it is so much brighter now in my little space! Someday though, I will have my room downstairs, but for now this is perfect for me!</div>

<br />
I worked on a few sketches from different sites, and also had fun playing along with an online crop. It was just so nice to sit and just create with no distraction except my own. <br />
<br />
So here is what I created, I made this layout for the <a href="http://www.creativescrappers.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Creative Scrappers Blog</a> and also used it for part of the <a href="http://myscrapsandmore.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=newestthreads" target="_blank">My Scraps and More</a> online crop.<br />
<br />

Wow! It feels good to just sit and create. I missed my "ME" time. Now that the little guy is 4, he actually lets me have some more time to create and just do my own thing, he is actually entertaining himself more and more....Mommy loves this!!!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I have created another Layout using a sketch from <a href="http://www.myscrapsandmoresketches.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">My Scraps & More Sketches</a> I am loving all these challenge blogs! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Wow! After not scrapping for so long, I think I have found my Mojo again!! Last night I created 15 Christmas cards for next year. And today I created two LOs! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was looking for a sketch challenge and found one at <a href="http://boysrulescrapbookkits.blogspot.ca/search?updated-max=2012-12-14T05:30:00-05:00&max-results=7" target="_blank">Boys Rule Scrapbook Kits</a> and decided to just go for it. Well, I did, and I created two layouts from their December sketches, I love both the LO's! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is their Dec 21st Sketch:</div>
