ATC Swap

So I was recently lucky enough to be invited to participate in an ATC swap hosted by genie1314 (Jen). It is by invitation only and the talent in the group was absolutely outstanding. I am still in awe of the amazing cards I got back. I thought I would post mine for you to see.

The butterfly is from Lockhart Stamp Company. I found this little local stamp store here in Phoenix and it boasts an amazing amount of stamps in the small store it is. I was so surprised when I walked in. It was so cool. I will for sure be headed back there, and if you are in the area and love rubber stamps -- check it out! I used the crayon resist technique on the background. Oh and of course my snap stamps on the sentiment "aspire." I really hope the other girls like it!

Here are some of the cards I got back in this swap:

Your ATC is stunning. I like how you used the paper in the background and then again added the butterfly on top. Thanks for sharing photos of the other ATC's. They are so pretty.

My Decade Later Comeback and Playing Catch Up

Hello friends, It's been awhile and I kind of dropped off the face of the planet since moving to Oregon. I got busy with growing four babies into teens, and attempting to hold together a marriage with a partner who was working out of town for the most part. It was a lot! Truth be told, I have been spending most of my time over on Instagram which allows for more quick picture and caption posts (@the.amanda.sewell), but I really, genuinely miss having a journal of our adventures, so I'm back.  Some changes, my ex-partner moved out in October of 2023 (after 23 years of marriage, who would have thought?) and I am on a new, single mom adventure with the fabulous four. Luckily, they are adjusting to the changes well as we navigate this challenging time as a family team. Things are still in flux and hopefully at the end of all of this, the dust will settle and we will end up landing on our feet. Because of this change, I needed to go back to work and after not working for the past lo...

(SSD014) - Ear Infections and Pneumonia

I apologize for my late posting today . . . the countdown to being 40 weeks preggo continues.  This week has been crazy out of control already, and it's only Tuesday!  YIKES!   Friday night Baby E was running a fever and really congested.  We gave him tylenol/motrin, but he would not take in fluids, and I was worried about him, so I slept on he floor beside his bed (stupid thing to do at 39 weeks pregnant).  Anyway, I cried a bit, and when I woke up in the morning, I had the most intense pain in my right ear ever!  Seriously OW!   Saturday, Mic took the baby to the pediatrician, where he was diagnosed with double ear infections, and pneumonia -- he had a breathing treatment there, and an antibiotic shot . . . and his lungs were sounding much more clear when he left.  Late Saturday night his fever broke, much to our relief.   Sunday was an okay day, mostly we just all rested -- an interesting thought occurred to me while I was on th...
