Updating

Hello! 
I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I had a wonderful day with my family and loved watching my girls faces when they opened their gifts.. .they have some interesting faces to express how excited they were about some of the toys and etc. 

I am finishing up some of the finishing touches on the guidelines and the themes... Still looking for more ideas from everyone... if you have a theme suggestion please let me know.. 
I know our first one is coming next week and I am so excited about this new Design team and getting started. My daughter is going to join us on a few projects. She is very excited to be part of this adventure with us. 
She has been wanting to do some card making and scrapbooking for awhile now and I thought there is no better time than now to get her started. 

Ok so I am off now to get started on finishing things up to get them posted for you all.... 

Happy New Year and Stay Safe!!!!

Welcome to the My Design Team...

Welcome to my Design Team. 
I am so excited to starting this new adventure and have each one of you take it with me. 

Here is a little bit about me. 
I am a mom of 6 beautiful children. I have 3 grown boys and 3 beautiful daughters still at home. My boys are 23, 20- will be 21 on Christmas Eve, 18. My youngest son in the Army. He just finished up Basic Training. 
My Daughters are 15, 7, and 5. 
I am a stay at home mom and I have a small embroidery/vinyl business that I run from home so I can be with my girls. I am a volunteer Fire Fighter and EMT ( Emergency Medical Tech). I am on call most of the time with the fire department and I do have a set schedule for my Ambulance time and I run 10 hour shifts with the Ambulance. I mostly run one night a week for them and do some fill ins here and there. I also help out when we need a second ambulance out. So I am very active with my volunteer services. Our Fire Company and Ambulance Corp are separate from each other. So I am very active in alot of events that both are involved in. I love being apart of both of them and would never change that. So will say that I go way beyond what anyone should, but I love to be able to help others when I can. I have also learned alot of things from being involved with the Fire and EMS that have changed the way I think about life. My husband is also a Fire Fighter and EMR ( EMR is a little different than an EMT- EMR is a Emergency Medical Responder). My 21 yr old son is also a Fire Fighter and EMR. Yes it a family tradition haha!!! My parents were both in the fire department when I was growing up, so I have carried it on with my brother. My brother is a firefighter and EMT too. 
Ok enough of the Firefighter and EMT stuff. haha!!! 

I do a lot of different crafts in my spare time and one is scrapbook and card making. I started with my cricut about 2 years ago and I started with the personal cutter (small cricut) well I did not use but 5 times. Well last year I saw a expression on sale and it was a really good price and I started watching different videos of what people were making with their cricuts. So I went and got the expression and now I am making all types of stuff with my cricut. Well hubby saw that I was going to a different level with it and he bought me the E2 for Mother's Day. I have found this very relaxing and fun to be able to create with paper and I am always looking for new things to try. 
And I have enjoyed being part of a Design Team and I learned alot of new things from each one of my Design Team Family and look forward to learning more as I continue with my adventure with you all. 
This Christmas my hubby is sparking a new level with the paper crafting and he got me the Imagine and about 7 cartridges too. So I will be playing with that a lot. 
I will also have a Cricut Mini Cake too in the house, I got that for my 3 daughters for Christmas cause they want to be able to decorate their cupcakes and cookies. They love baking with me and I thought that it would be so nice and neat to have the cricut mini cake for them. They love playing with me in the craftroom with the cricut and help me design my pages for our scrapbook. 

Well enough of me for now... LOL..
