My TWEEThearts

I LOVE MY GIRLS! Most of the pages that I make are the moments that I, or my hubby, capture as we go through life enjoying the blessing of family that God has given to us. These girls are our world and they, as I often tell them, are the best "things" that I have ever made. They truly are my "tweethearts". 

As I created this page, the Lord reminded me of a scripture in the book of Matthew; it is actually my husbands favourite scripture. Matthew 6:25-34 reminds us that we do not need to worry about anything because we are more valuable to than the birds, and our Lord provides for them. Just as they do not have to worry about how their needs will be met, neither do we. He will provide for us. 

If you have a moment, read this scripture in The Message version. It really puts things into perspective.

It's Been A Long Time....

Well, it has been almost TWO YEARS since my last blog post, and I have decided to resurrect MouseyFace and begin sharing again. I have still been scrapping and creating, but sometimes life gets in the way and that is exactly what happened......for two years. So while I can't promise a daily update, I can commit, to a weekly update.....well I will try my best, my very best.

It's Christmastime!!

Christmas is just around the corner and if you have little ones in school, you may be wondering, "What in the world am I gonna get my child's teacher for Christmas?" Well, This year, I have decided to get my creative juices flowing and come up with something creative and unique. After searching the web for some inspiration, I came across these amazing monograms that crafters everywhere are making for teachers! I immediately fell in love with the idea.  
Now, as a teacher, I always have to ask myself what MY reaction would be if I was on the receiving end of one of my handmade gifts. Well, I don't know about you, but I know that I would LOVE to receive something like this as a gift, so I decided to make one for each of my daughter's teachers :) But since they are not all finished, I decided to just post this one......

I couldn't resist making one for myself!! 

Thanks for looking :)

I've Been Framed!!

Like many scrappers, my love for this hobby was ignited by the birth of a child. About six years ago, my husband and I were blessed with a beautiful baby girl and shortly after that I entered the wonderful, addictive world of scrapping. What began as simple pictures and stickers slowly blossomed into a passionate love for handmade crafts. (I am sure many of you can relate!) 


Like all parents, my husband and I wanted to choose the perfect name for our new bundle of joy. We both loved the name Simone. But, to my disappointment, I was not able to find the name "Simone" on any of those adorable personalized baby items that seemed to be for sale everywhere I went! Believe me, I searched in every store that I went to! Then, on one of my frequent trips to Michaels, I stumbled on some unfinished wooden photo frames and some large unfinished wooden letters. Using additional supplies, I created a personalized photo frame for my daughter. Soon others wanted a frame for their little uniquely named bundles of joy and PRESTO, a small business was born. 


I have created frames for Declan, Jadiah, Hayden, Summer, Jaiden and many others. After a while, I began to move away from altering frames and re-focused on scrapping. But, once you start something, sometimes it is hard to stop!! It has been six years since I made my first frame and the business is slowly being resurrected! The design has changed a little, but they are just as cute...if I do say to myself :)

Can't forget the details!
