So happy to be today's guest designer on <a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/" target="_blank">Jaded Blossom</a>! It has been such a fun month seeing all the great projects everyone has made!<br />
<br />
For my project today I wanted to show something I've been working on recently. I have started a cookbook featuring the meals I make for me and hubby! I'm actually going to make a series of them....This first one is just some of our favorite go to recipes....kinda our daily meals. Items that make it easy for us to work full time and keep us fed. Then I'm going to make one for formal meals, an appetizers one, a desserts/snacks book and a camping/primitive cooking book. Stay tuned.<br />
<br />
I was soooooo excited when Jaded Blossom came out with the new baking sets....<a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=355#.VJ2iccB0OcA" target="_blank">Baked with Love,</a> <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=354#.VJ2ivMB0OcA" target="_blank">Baking Dies</a> and <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=357#.VJ2jGsB0OcA" target="_blank">Freshly Baked</a> as I had just started this first cookbook! These sets are just perfect for my upcoming projects! Besides using the new baking sets I also used <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=263#.VJ2k3MB0OcA" target="_blank">Card Mat Dies,</a> <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=136#.VJ2lDcB0OcA" target="_blank">Flag Dies,</a> and <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=246#.VJ2lWMB0OcA" target="_blank">Wine Tag Dies.</a><br />
<br />
Without further delay....here is my first cookbook:<br />

We give free SVGs all the time, and this time, we are asking YOU to give back to the Animals by donating to our fundraising campaign <a href="http://wwf.worldwildlife.org/site/TR?px=8242707&fr_id=1181&pg=personal">"Save the Animals"</a>. By donating, you can earn exclusive SVGs. Here is a look at the donation levels. <b>And as a BONUS</b> <span style="background-color: magenta;">since your donation is going to a charity, its a tax write off!!</span> So keep your receipt!<br />
<br />
Here is an example of the donation screen.. When donating, please make sure to include your email address under "personal note" so that we can send you the SVGs that pertain to your donation level (it will not be published on the website)<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Each person in this hop picked one animal to represent today. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I picked dogs, specifically Rescued dogs. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have heard about rescues before, but didn't really understand what was going on. I attempted to get a dog from a rescue many years ago and didn't hear back from them, so I just moved on and got a dog from a backyard breeder. In the last 9 months I have learned so much I never knew about rescue animals and rescues in general. I want to share with you my experience and what I've learned.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong>What I thought vs. Reality</strong></div>
<ul>
<li><div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I thought all rescue groups gave animals away for free and if they were charging for them then it was a scam. Reality....they are charging a fee to cover the cost of vetting the animal no matter what the problem is, getting all the shots current and spay/neutering the animal. Also, charging for an animal helps keep down the risk of people just getting the animal to use as bait in dog fights. (Sad but true!). If the fee is a little more than the vetting costs, then the money goes into a reserve to help with an animal that might have more expensive vetting costs. The rescue fees are normally much less than the cost of buying a pet and you already have a fully vetted animal. Bonus!</div>
</li>
<li><div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I thought all rescue animals had something wrong with them. Reality, most of the animals that wind up in rescue are healthy, well mannered family pets that for various reasons their family can't keep them (Sad but true!) and that means there are many WONDERFUL pets waiting for their forever homes. All different ages, breeds and personalities. </div>
</li>
<li><div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Rescues are ran by volunteers and those volunteers love these animals. If it doesn't work out with you and an animal, the very best thing to do is to give that animal back to the rescue you got it from. They work tirelessly to make sure all of the matches are good for all parties.</div>
</li>
<li><div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And, lastly and sadly, I was very naïve about how people treat their pets or other animals they encounter. I thought all little puppies were in happy families that wanted them and were being worshiped like we are worshiping our dogs. Reality, some breeders don't have a love for the animals they are breeding. There are many experienced, reputable breeders out there, but unfortunately there are more backyard breeders that only are in it for the money. When the breeding mommy or daddy are no longer useful then they are cast aside. Or, in the case of our puppy, Mercy, if there is a problem with the animal at birth they may either be subjected to horrible conditions or destroyed without compassion. (Sad, but true!)</div>
</li>
</ul>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The next time you want a pet (of any kind or breed), please consider a rescue. Check out <a href="http://www.petfinder.com/" target="_blank">Pet Finder</a> they have many adoptable animals. There is a rescue group for everything....including hedgehogs!!! Saving an unwanted animal is very rewarding, but also, all these animals want is to be loved and to please their humans. </div>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<strong><u><span style="color: #6fa8dc;">Please help put backyard breeders out of business.</span></u></strong> </div>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is my project. It is a thank you card. We have so much to be thankful for with our little Mercy, but most recently we found a pet sitter for her that truly loves her as much as we do and that will afford us the chance to travel occasionally. It is very comforting finding someone that will care for your kiddos the way you would and it is a special person that would change a dog's diaper multiple times a day. Just saying! </div>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
After my project there is a story about Mercy and our rescue experience. </div>

<strong>The Story of Mercy</strong></div>
<div align="left" class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I would like to the story of the puppy me and my husband rescued last fall. Her name is Mercy Denise. That is her fourth and last name. She was born to a backyard breeder in South Texas. She was named Miracle because she was born with a spinal defect that has left her paralyzed from the waist back and her rear legs are completely fused straight. She has no bowel control, so the breeder tied her up with a short leash on their carport. She lived there from February to September last year....did I mention this was in South Texas? Well, Texas is HOT all except 4 days in the winter months. It is not good for any dog to be outside constantly in this weather, but the smooshed face of a little Boston Terrier makes is hard for them to breath and being outside for long periods of time is a major no-no. I can only imagine the other things she encountered out there day in and day out as a little baby that was paralyzed. When she was saved by a young lady named Denise, she had many open wounds on her legs, feet and bottom from being on the concrete. She lost a toe and some claws, too. There was blood all over the carport floor where she had been tied. Denise immediately took her to a vet. The vet told her that Miracle should be put down, so Denise took her to another vet that cared for her and did her spay surgery and x-rays to determine what was wrong with her. That vet indicated she had a severed spine from birth or injury. Denise wanted to give Miracle a clean start and named her Ariel after the Little Mermaid because of how she dragged her body behind her. Denise cared for her, got her in diapers, let her live in her home with her and her other Boston Terriers and loved her like crazy! Denise lives in a small town in S. TX and realized that Ariel would get the best care and have a better chance of meeting a wonderful forever family in a large city. She heard of the <a href="http://www.texasbostons.com/" target="_blank">Boston Terrier Rescue of North Texas</a> and brought Ariel to Dallas. To shorten the story I will tell you that me and my hubby weren't looking for another dog, but we immediately fell in love with Lucky (her new name the rescue gave her - it is common for rescues to rename the animals, again, to give them a new life, but often they don't know anything about the animals they receive.) We donated to Lucky's care and watched her on Facebook. Within the week we met her and after we passed the home interview and the application process we received Miracle/Ariel/Lucky into our home! My husband named her Mercy and I gave her the middle name of Denise after the lady that saved her from God only knows what. She is now our child. She has been with us for 8 months. She doesn't know she is any different than any other puppy. She is soooo loved! My husband and I treat her just like our baby! Her sister, Liberty Belle the Boston Terrier, loves her (well at least she tolerates her and misses her when she is gone.) My mom makes her custom onesies so her diapers will stay on her little butt, we have a stroller for her when we go out and she has a cart that was donated from a nice lady that she knew in her S.TX days. She loves running around in our back yard and at the dog park. Here are some links of her first few days with us. This was before we conquered the diapers coming off, so she was in store bought clothes. </div>

She was just 9 pounds....now she weighs almost 14. </div>

And now for my projects!<br />
I used <a href="http://svgcuttingfiles.com/catalog.php?item=1446">Michelle's Blog Logo Girl</a> (this is a FREE file available only today through 12am PST) from her Blog as my project cut file along with the <a href="http://svgcuttingfiles.com/catalog.php?item=429">Craft Catch All Caddy</a> from SVG Cutting Files<br />
<br />
I had to use the BLESS YOUR HEART sentiment for Michelle's card and candy basket as she made fun of me the entire time she was visiting me in Texas the first time we met because I say "BLESS YOUR HEART", a lot! I explained to her that it rarely means anything nice....even if you say it <em><u>really</u></em> sweetly! Glad it stuck with her....all the way in California!<br />

Candace and I share a love of Coffee, Star Wars and specifically, R2D2 (I wanted to marry him when I was a kid!) So, I thought I would make her this travel tumbler for her coffee. As you can see it has a nerdy R2D2 on the front with the phrase "This IS the coffee you are looking for" around the base and CANDACE's name on the back. I hope she loves it and I will be make myself one soon!</center>

Here is my day two project....it is a Coffee Pot treat holder made from a file from <a href="http://svgcuttingfiles.com/catalog.php?item=232">SVG Cutting Files</a>! I love these tube holders. The tubes, dies and the stamp sentiments are from <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?category=10#.Uv73Km7nbIU">Jaded Blossom Stamps</a>! I made this little gift for Michelle.....she is not a coffee fan, but she loves her sweet and creamy coffee drinks....and her favorite place is Java Detour. So, I've included a Java Detour gift card for her along with chocolate covered espresso beans. I hope she loves it! (BTW....I did copy this from a project Michelle did!)<br />

The only rule is that it must have a <a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/">Jaded Blossom </a>stamp on it.<br />
<br />
So, I am entering my first layout...as it has stamps on it.<br />
<br />
I made this little frame page for the precious girl.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7JMmbenUVOyMJ00eucL7A_JQh4L4GTKsPd0L_doRSAB7y-wHYoWdoEG-eBinLq0CP-DT8nmvR-t_X9VeaPTe4O9IOLFYTQkc3eYcxM805YkFp41MSJZ-x5JxBpkzcyFUMPwUZH2REGng/s1600/IMG_7706.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh7JMmbenUVOyMJ00eucL7A_JQh4L4GTKsPd0L_doRSAB7y-wHYoWdoEG-eBinLq0CP-DT8nmvR-t_X9VeaPTe4O9IOLFYTQkc3eYcxM805YkFp41MSJZ-x5JxBpkzcyFUMPwUZH2REGng/s1600/IMG_7706.JPG" height="315" width="320" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=137">Flag Dies 2</a> and <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=61">Baby and Weddings</a> stamp set. </div>
<br />
I made a couple of other layouts....This one is based on a baby girl's wardrobe choices. It is my favorite of the 3. I used both of the Jaded Blossom Flag Dies sets for the sun rays. I love the caption at the bottom "Gonna Dress You Up in My Love"<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hey, Y'all.....welcome to Abby's 40th OVER THE HILL Birthday Blog Hop! I am so happy to be a part of her birthday celebration! You should have come here from <a href="http://www.creatinganniething.blogspot.com/">Annie's Blog.</a> To start from the beginning start with Candace at <a href="http://www.papercraftsbycandace.blogspot.com/">Paper Crafts by Candace</a>.<br />
<br />
<br />
Abby and I have some things in common in the regard to our love of <br />
Hello Kitty, Frida Kahlo and Sugar Skulls! So, I made this shape card<br />
as a Hello Kitty Frida Kahlo (straight copied from the project she made<br />
when we had the Hello Kitty hop over the summer)! For the sentiment I used one of Abby's stampsets from <a href="http://www.retosabby.com/">Dilo En Espanol</a> called <a href="http://abby.bigcartel.com/product/mary-la-catrina">Mary La Catrina</a> and the <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/">Jaded Blossom</a> set called <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/catalog.php?item=98">Picture This</a> I got these great earrings as a gift for Abby and an embellishment for the card. <br />
I hope you like my card/gift!<br />

I told him it was a little Thanksgiving treat as I am thankful that I found him and he takes such good care of me. Honestly, I would shower him with gifts each time I see him, but I know it would embarrass him.....so, I was able to sneak this in as a holiday gift.<br />
<br />
I used 4 different <a href="http://jadedblossomstamps.com/">Jaded Blossom</a> stamp sets (Here's the Scoop, Get Well Soon, Got Candy and Simple Saying 3). I also used the Mini Tag Dies and the wood scoops. I used a sugar shaker, candied chocolates in all white and some twine, too.<br />
<br />
I "borrowed" this idea from one of Michelle's Thanksgiving treats. <br />

The challenge is with <a href="http://svgcuttingfiles.blogspot.com/2013/09/boys-their-toys-monthly-blog-challenge.html">SVG Cutting Files</a> and the theme is Boys & Their Toys. Go follow this great company and see their products in action at <a href="http://svgcuttingfiles.com/">SVGCuttingfiles.com</a><br />
<br />
I grabbed this cute file as soon as I saw it....It is a slider card that I converted to a gift card holder. I'm gonna get to use this card over and over again, but loving it for a birthday gift. I also used some <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/">Jaded Blossom Products</a> including the "I love you more than my phone" sentiment.<br />
<br />
Hope you like it:<br />

It has been a few months since I have entered into the Jaded Blossom Monthly Challenge, but I really like to each month....It's been a crazy summer! <br />
<br />
So, I have to tell you (most of you already know this)...I really like making gifts to give people! I sometimes worry when I give a hand made gift the recipient will feel short changed, so making a gift card holder gives me the best of both worlds. I get to make something for them and they also get a "real" gift.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/2013/09/september-monthly-challenge-gift-card.html">The Jaded Blossom Challenge</a> this month is Gift Card themed to celebrate their new <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/gift-card-die">Gift Card Die</a>. <br />
My first project is my entry into the challenge. I used all Jaded Blossom products to make this card.<br />
I used the <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/fancy-topper-die">Fancy Topper Die</a> to make the base of the card, cut it another time from patterned paper to place on top. I used the <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/gift-card-die">Gift Card Die</a> on the interior of the card base and <span><a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/candy-charms-and-banners-dies">Candy Charms and Banners Dies</a> to create a charm on the cover. I used <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/birthday-kisses-4x4">Birthday Kisses</a> on the charm and of course, the interior sentiment is also Jaded Blossom, but I couldn't find the link in the store. This was a five minute simple card, which is great because often times I am not prepared even though every one's birthday happens each year!</span><br />

<span style="color: lime;">Hey Y'all. Welcome to the Wonderful World of Wizards Blog Hop.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: lime;">If you're here from</span> <a href="http://theglamoroussideofscrapping.blogspot.com/">Ashley</a> <span style="color: lime;">then you're in the right place, if not jump over to</span> <br />
<a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/">Jaded Blossom</a> <span style="color: lime;">and start the hop from the beginning. You don't want to miss a thing!</span><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<br />
I <span style="color: lime;">was so excited to be asked to join this hop! There are a lot of Harry Potter </span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">fans in my life, so this Wizard themed hop is perfect. </span><br />
<span style="color: lime;"></span><br />
<span style="color: lime;">I'm from Texas and if Hogwarts had been in Texas Harry would have gotten Ginny a Mum to wear to the big Homecoming game. So, I dressed up one of the mums my mom made for a dear friend with a</span> <span style="color: lime;">gre</span><span style="color: lime;">at Wizard inspired cut from </span><a href="http://svgcuttingfiles.com/catalog.php?item=681">SVG Cutting Files (get it free here!)</a> <span style="color: lime;"> and the Wizard Candies and the</span> <span style="color: lime;">Charms die from</span> <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/">Jaded Blossom.</a><br />
<br />
<span style="color: lime;">I hope you love it! I do!</span><br />
<br />

The sentiment was from the Jaded Blossom set, <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/cheesy-pick-ups-4x6">Cheesy Pick Ups</a>. I also used the <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/3x4-inch-clear-bags-100">3x4 treat bags.</a></div>

We have never had new neighbors (we are the new kids on the block and we've been here for 5 years), so I wasn't sure if people still do the welcome gifts for neighbors. Then I thought....I'm gonna deploy the Golden Rule..and do what I would like to have done for me and mine! I would love to have met my neighbors when we moved in. I baked some chocolate chip cookies and make a little container to hold them. I put a note on the back of the tag that included our names and numbers on it. And, since I was using <a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/">Jaded Blossom Stamps,</a> I might as well enter this in their <a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/2013/04/april-challenge-april-showers-bring-may.html">April Challenge!</a> I used the <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/treat-tag-die">Treat Tag Die set</a> for the tag and the <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/friendly-kisses-4x4">Friendly Candies</a> set for the Hello button in the middle.<br />
<br />
Hope you like it....But, really hope the new neighbors do! We are heading over to deliver this evening.<br />

I am very new to the Kit Kat cakes, but apparently if you look on Pinterest you will find tons of them. My Aunt made one earlier this month and when I was thinking what to do for the<a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/2013/03/march-monthly-challenge-easter-theme.html"> Jaded Blossom challenge</a> and what to take to a crop tomorrow, this was a no brainer for me. I always call my crafty friends, my crafty Peeps!<br />

I love the <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/easter-treats-4x6">Jaded Blossom Easter Treats</a> and I bought the set mostly for the for the "Peeps" stamp. You will notice the stamp actually reads "<strong>Happy Easter</strong> to one of my favorite <strong>Peeps</strong>"! Well, Michelle with Scrappin with my Bug and Jaded Blossom did a great tutorial on masking in which I learned how to alter stamp images. I used that technique to make my sign for my cake. I also used the <a href="http://jadedblossom.bigcartel.com/product/curly-label-die">Jaded Blossom Curly Label Die</a> to make my sign. Not to worry...Easter weekend I will be making dozens of treats using the stamp just as it is written! <br />

We are having a blast....<br />
<br />
Just completed my project for the <a href="http://www.jadedblossom.com/2013/01/january-monthly-challenge-anything-but.html">Jaded Blossom Challenge</a> this month. I loved this little notepad hanger I got from the Silhouette store! It holds a notepad, some pens and has a spot to change out a photo. Love it. I used the Jaded Blossom Fancy Topper Die, Simple Sayings 2 "Happy Everything" on the tag, Friendly Candies for the head of the thumb tack and a cute little calendar for added convenience. What do you think?<br />
