Listography

I'm not sure if any of you have picked up the book Listography... I came across it in Barnes & Noble a few weeks ago and just LOVE it... if you use lists at all in your scrapbooking, it is a great resource... they also have a cool website that you can join and add your lists to... I joined this past weekend and have been having fun creating my own lists, as well as checking out other peoples lists... check out my list HERE.

Totally Off-topic

A year ago on April 26th, my husband and I lost a good friend. Actually Joe was more than a good friend, he was family. It hurt terribly to lose Joe, especially since it didn't need to happen. Joe lost his battle with Post Tramatic Stress Disorder and committed suicide. He had just returned from his second tour of duty in Iraq in November of 2006 and in April 2007 left us with a hole in our hearts.

Coming up the weekend of May 3rd many friends of Joe will be holding a motorcycle run in his memory to raise money for a billboard to be placed somewhere along I-94 in North Dakota that will read "PTSD and depression is real. Get help now." with a phone number to call at the bottom. We don't want anyone else to do what Joe did when help is available to them 24/7. We are dedicating this not just to Joe, but to all the veterans who need help.
If you would like to take part in the motorcycle run the details can be found at http://www.trailblazermc.com/ . If you would like to help organize, help or have suggestions for the design of the billboard, or would just like to donate to the fund, you can contact Matt Leaf.

Military Unity Ribbons

As you all know, my loving hubby and my son are both in the Army Nat'l Guard and I'm a PROUD Army Wife and Mom. So while playing with my new KNK software, I decided to make a unity ribbon and since I didn't want to leave out the other three services, I created ribbons for the Navy, Air Force, Marines as well as my FAVORITE... ARMY! Hope you all enjoy these!


Please remember that for those who use the GSD file version... I am using the updated version of RoboMaster, so you might want to download the DXF version. Also I've posted a terms of use on the sidebar.

Enjoy!
