Taking advantage of today…..

So I had the day off for a vacation day due to my youngest son getting his braces off yesterday…he had to be back in the Orthdontist office at 7:30 a.m. this morning to get his temporary retainer for the top and his permanent metal retainer for the bottom…….(still have yet another trip in 6 weeks to get his metal top retainer  then we are DONE!!!!)  He has worn his braces just 1 month short of 3 years!!! LOL  He was beginning to think he would be wearing them permanently!!!!  Here he is with his pretty smile….ehhhmmmmm…excuse me….I mean “HANDSOME” smile!!! Winking smile

Ok….now that I’ve gushed on my baby!!!!!! Winking smile  That’s a mama’s job…right??? I’ll now show you what I created today…..I’m on such a productive roll!!!  I needed to create a Shadow Box for a swap in my Creative Inspirations Group for Brandi……..I LOVED the idea a wonderful friend of mine…Celeste did where she made her boxes custom sized for what she wanted then attached them together and then made a frame around it…SUPER CUTE………but when I began to create mine I drew a complete blank….LOL Don’t you hate it when that happens!!!

So….I sat and stared at the walls for a while…thinkin’ thinkin’ thinkin’…..made my brain hurt too….let me tell ya!!! HA…….So I know that Brandi is a Christian and I wanted to make her something that reflected that……so I went back to my trusty shadow box frames I’m enjoying making lately…..it’s a rather small frame with a square opening…..so I think this came out pretty cute…..what do you think?????

Now….what bugs the BAGEEZERS out of me????  AFTER I get it all put together…I flip it over and noticed GLUE STRINGS!!!!! Achkkkkkkkkkkkkk on the inside of the frame…there’s NO WAY I’ll ever get this puppy open…So……Brandi I’m so sorry sweetie….I hope it’s not to distracting…….and I really really hope you will like this…….As I too am a Christian I did make it with a lot of love!!!!!

Ok…..that’s it for me for now…..what will I do next…hummmmmmm….gotta go look at my list!!!! Winking smile  As always….THANK YOU SO MUCH for stopping by to visit with me……I hope you are all having a VERY BLESSED DAY!!!! And I do indeed hope you will come by again!!!!!  Until next time……
