Long Post and new card to share




Hi Everyone!
It's been a long time since I posted anything and I do apologize. I don't know what has been going on with me. I still create the only thing is that I just forget to post. In reality the computer that I am currently using is a drag. I don't like it. It has a mind of it's own. Sometimes it works great and others it just doesn't budge. Since I do work with computers all day and sometimes the system is also slow I just don't want to deal with the whole computer thing. I do apologize for not being able to post like I have in the past. My family and I have been great thanks to God. We have been trying to do as much as we can during the beautiful California weather. Yesterday we went to Huntington Beach, CA and we saw 7 dolphins in the wild!! That was such an awesome gift from God. I have always seen dolphins in captivity but never out in the ocean. I can just imagine what it would be like one day when all the evil and corruption of this world is no more. And once again God is the ruler and King. All the animals will be free and we can play with them without fear of getting hurt by them. But till that day we can still admire the beauty of these wonderful creatures.
I am currently working on some cool little cards that I will be giving to my friends at church for Friendship Day. It's on August 1st and lucky for us it falls on a Sunday when all the families are there! I will try and post some pictures of these later on. But today I am just randomly sharing some thoughts. Sorry for the long post and I hope everyone is appreciative of all the Blessings our Lord has given us. Till next time take care and here is a picture of a fold that I created.

Diaper Cake

Hi Everyone.. I know it's been a while since I lasted posted. I have no excuse just not into posting anything.. but today I felt like sharing a cake that I made out of diapers. There are a lot of different videos on YouTube on how to make these. But once you get the idea you can add your own touch. I made this for a co-worker who had a baby girl. This little bundle of joy came to her after 15 years! I am so happy for her and her family. I used a lot of baby items that I know she will need for her baby. Not to mention all the diapers that she will have to use the first couple of weeks.
I used flowers to add a feminine touch to it. I wanted it to look like a cake. I was surprised to hear that the ladies that attended her baby shower had never seen a diaper cake before. Everyone was very amazed to see something created with diapers. I was just happy that my friend enjoyed the cake. She told me later on that she loves the smell of baby diapers. The ones that I purchase had a baby powder scent to them. I also enjoy that smell. I enjoy the scent that babies have. Just so unique and tender.
This pictured has some of the items that I attached all around the cake. I used her favorite colors which are purple and pink. I think it came out good. I hope you can try and make one if the chance appears in your life. I hope I can start blogging again soon and share some of my life events.
