A Sister is a Little Bit of Childhood . . .

Another challenge at DID . . . this time a color challenge. We were given this color palette:

And this is the layout I created. I used Scrap N Tag's Tahlia kit, and recolored some of the elements. Pretty cool. I am absolutely in love with this kit. If I don't watch out, I'll be using it all the time! This is me and my LOVELY sister Anna (I don't know what I would do without this girl!) at Thanksgiving at my Grandma Hicks' house.

Say It Isn't Snow

Cool quote challenge going on over at DoItDigi . . . must use a "snow" quote and have a snow theme on the page. Was quite a challenge as I have no snow pics here in Florida, but I managed to work around it. I used Alabaster Box's Snow Elegance. I love all the jewels hidden in the snowflakes in this kit. So sophisticated! I thought the page turned out pretty good. It's a photo of our house on Christmas morning last year (2006).

I'm on the Creative Team for Alabaster Box!

Woo-hoo! I'm on the Creative Team for Alabaster Box! You can check out the announcement HERE.

Marcie has a new kit that is made up of neutrals and can be used for all types of pages. She has designed several other kits, as well as page templates and all kinds of embellishments that are awesome.

I'm working on a layout now, so be expecting a new post sometime soon!

Blossoming

My dear sister is pregnant with her second child and she looks absolutely beautiful. She's having a BOY! Her daughter is absolutely gorgeous, and I'm sure this little one is going to be handsome as well.

I used Carolyn's new kit she created for another CT member, Adelina, that you can find at Scrap N Tag's blog (FOR FREE!: click HERE to visit her blog and download the kit.) I love the colors in this collection. And what is even more exciting is that Carolyn will be creating a collection named after me with colors I have picked. So keep checking back because I'm sure I'm gonna go nuts with that collection when she gets finished with it.

Flourish

I created this layout for a font challenge over at DID (Do It Digi) . . . I used parts of the Secret Garden kit from Chaos Lounge as well as parts of the Kinda Rustic collection by Scrap N Tag. The picture is of my cousin's little one . . . he is the sweetest little thing! Don't you just want to squeeze his cheeks?

Thanksgiving 2007

Yesterday we went to my grandmother's for lunch, and it was wonderful. Grandma made the turkey, dressing, and zipper cream peas, Tracy made a sweet potato casserole, and I made mashed potatoes, green beans, a green salad, and heated up some of those yummy Bunny bread heat-and-serve rolls. It was a smaller crowd this time around: Kevin, Tracy and their 3 boys, Jay and I and our 2 children, Anna, Mama, Grandma and Amanda and Jim. Everyone was able to sit around one table! We missed everyone else that had other plans, though.

We spent a lot of time sitting around the table talking. It was the best Thanksgiving meal I've had in quite a while. We went to Aunt Nonie's on Saturday for Thanksgiving with my dad's side of the family, and I always enjoy seeing everyone. But it's somewhat chaotic and disjointed. We don't have a place where we can all sit down and the kids are usually running crazy outside anyway. So half of us are inside and then outside and then on the porch and over at the shop. I didn't feel like I was really able to spend a lot of time with everyone. Of course, I love me some Laura and Lisa 'cause they make me laugh, and I did hang with them quite a bit. I just kept having to mill around to get to everyone. The food was absolutely fabulous, too. It's probably just me anyway. I wasn't feeling great with my foot and I was worried about Daniel's broken arm.

So I guess I'm just thankful that I had such a great day yesterday. I'm thankful that we had the time to spend together. And it was cool 'cause Anna came and spent the night last night. She got up STUPID early this morning to go shopping with Amanda for Black Friday deals . . . they should be back in a little while. She's supposed to hang here (for the nighttime anyway) through the weekend so she doesn't have to drive back home each night.

Jay is still working on the other computer, so he's run to pick up an adapter. Olivia is trying to catch up with her cousins to see if they can come over and play this afternoon and spend the night. Daniel is, guess what, playing with trains. It's just gonna be a relaxing day around here . . . I hope everyone had a great day with their families.

I'm On The Creative Team for Scrap N Tag!

Woo-hoo! I'm on the Creative Team for Scrap N Tag! Check it out: CHERYLISONSCRAPNTAGCT

I am so excited. Carolyn's kits are wonderful! I'm working on a quick page now that will be utilizing her "In The Summertime" collection.

Yippee!

My Sister My Friend

This is my youngest sister, Emily. She just celebrated her 17th birthday. I am very blessed to call her not only my sister, but my friend, too! I chose all the flowers on the layout because she is blossoming into such a lovely young woman.

Rough and Tumble

We survived the visit to the pediatric orthopedist. We came away with a red cast. Everyone is doing great. We are even getting laughs and smiles and he seems much happier now that he is able to play. I am still feeling the aftershocks of stress, but much improved in the attitude department.

Another visit to the doctor . . .

Today my son fell and fractured his arm. This was after my fall last Thursday. I am still recovering from a severe sprain. Hobbling around. We are such a pair. He can't use his right arm. I can hardly walk on my left leg. I am having some difficulty accepting these events plopped right on top of each other. I can see the good in the situation, but it keeps getting overwhelmed by my sheer anger! I get so mad thinking about all my injuries and pain and then everything that Daniel went through with his two surgeries. It is so sad that my little boy has to deal with any more pain in his life. So I am praying that I will be given supernatural power to accept my circumstances and continue to praise God in the midst of my storms. This is another time when I'm grateful for my favorite song (see post below: Indescribable). He sees my heart (the rage and anger filled heart) and He loves me the same! So I'll pick my chin up, head to see the ortho tomorrow or Friday and see what can be done for my little man.

Remembering My Grandfather and His Three Brothers

Just spent some time today while putting this together thinking about these men and their choices. How those choices allow me to be who I am today. I was also mulling over the fact that I really missed out on something special by not meeting my grandfather. He died when my mother was a senior in high school. Even now when she talks about him, I can hear the pain in her voice. I can't imagine how hard that must have been for her and the family when he passed. I am just extremely grateful for their service to our great country.

TOOT! TOOT!

Yup. That would be me. Tooting my own horn. I entered a challenge at faithsisters and won! Woo-hoo! First thing I've won! I'm so excited. I'm beside myself. See, I'm looking at myself beside myself, going TOOT! TOOT! Hee Hee.

Check it out!

Pieces of Me

Another faithsister completed a LO using a template that looks like this. I loved it so much, I had to scraplift it. She even told us where to download the free template. I got it and looked at it . . . I don't think I would have ever thought to take apart one photo into pieces. I would have been tempted to put separate small pictures of an event or something. I love how she was able to look at the template and do this. And I love how I was able to scraplift the idea from her! I am really enjoying incorporating my faith into my scrapbooks. I saw these pieces of myself and thought about how I've been broken into pieces. Sometimes by the actions of others, but mostly because of my own actions. Thinking about how God takes those pieces and uses them anyway. The scripture from Hosea on the LO is referencing Israel's unrepentance. How many times I have sinned and been unrepentant! But if I return to the Lord, He will heal me! I've just been mulling this over since I created this . . . and I started thinking about this great bracelet I got for Christmas. It's sterling silver and each link has small pieces of china. Now, I'm sure that each piece of china that she used was beautiful on its own when it was whole. I have to say, though, that I really think my bracelet is gorgeous with all those broken pieces put together. Hmmm . . . wonder if God thinks that way, too. About us as the body of Christ in this world. That our pieces strung together make something beautiful.

Lamp Fetish

My family loves to pick at me about how many lamps I have. Truthfully, I just enjoy them. Until I took all these pictures, I didn't realize how many I had. Seeing them all (ok some of them) put on one page is kind of overwhelming. I wonder if other people feel that way when they come to my house. Like, geez, enough already. Oh well. My house. Will continue to be a house of lamps. I like how the light is softer than overhead lighting. Credits:

Take Time to Love the Little Things

These jars sit on my desk and I love to look at them filled with little goodies. The goodies are for paper scrapping, which I haven't been doing ANY of since I started digi scrapping. But I still love to look at the jars. The colors. The light reflecting off the glass. The happy fat little shapes.

Mr. Fix It

Daniel likes to fix (he calls it "fick") things. Hubby was putting in a new dishwasher and Daniel jumped right in with his tools from his Home Depot tool box. He started really showing off when I pulled out the camera. He is so funny because he's SO serious about his "ficking."

Indescribable

I created this layout to showcase my favorite song of the moment, sung by Chris Tomlin. The picture was taken in my back yard and shows our golden rain tree in bloom. A tree like this one was blooming in my mother's yard 14 years ago when Jay and I got married. I had my bridal pictures taken there. Seeing these blooms makes me remember getting married and all those feelings . . . sort of indescribable . . . so when I look at this picture and then hear the song talk about the colors of fall . . . it all comes together for me. My favorite line of the song is, "You see the depths of my heart and You love me the same." Love it.

Cookies for Santa

This layout was created for a challenge at the Raspberry Road yahoo group that I recently joined. The kit we used was Raspberry Road's Crystal Skies. I also created two Christmas card templates from the kit as well, which I thought turned out pretty good.


Faith Prevails

I created this layout for a challenge at faithsisters.com. The challenge was to create a LO that shows a difficult struggle or challenge that I have overcome and that strengthened my faith.

My son's first surgery was in April '06. He had a calcified cephalohematoma removed. The surgery went well, recovery went well . . . until June and then we started having problems. Parts of the skin around the incision weren't healing. We discovered that his body was rejecting the bone wax that was used to seal the skull to limit bleeding during the surgery. In August '06, we went back into the hospital to basically have the area debrided. We weren't prepared for the wound care after this surgery. After his first surgery, we basically kept the incision site cleaned. After this surgery, we had open wounds that required sterile (as close as we could get) packings three times a day. A nightmare. It required one or two extra people to hold him down while I tried to keep myself calm enough to remove the old packing and put in the new. It was physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually draining. I didn't think I would ever be able to do anything like this, and yet day after day, I was plodding along. Crying, praying, weeping, praying, hoping, praying. It was finally over in October '06. I did experience depression following this, and got some medical help. Looking back now, I see that God was carrying me and my heavy burden each and every day, each and every moment. With Him, all things are possible.

Resume

Cheryl S. Ashcraft
Digital Layout Artist and Digital Template Designer


I am currently a stay-at-home mom with a previous career as a certified legal assistant. I have always been interested in crafts, but as a new mother, that translated into traditional paper scrapbooking. I was a paper scrapbooker for 10 years, and have been designing digital layouts since August 2007.  In addition to creating digital layouts, I began designing digital templates in February 2010 under the name Fiddle-Dee-Dee Designs. My template designs can be found exclusively at Scrap Orchard.

I currently create digital layouts for the amazing designers at Scrap Orchard and for the following designers:

Jenn Barrette @ Sweet Shoppe Designs
Ju Kneipp Designs @ Sweet Shoppe Designs
Studio Lorie @ Scrapbookgraphics

Contributor:

Staff Writer for My Scrapbook Art's digital magazine Home Is Where The Art Is
