Changes Are Coming


After decades of not working 
staying home to care for Bonnie,
I go back to work this month.

I would love you to say a prayer for me.
I'm hoping God will bless my work
so that I'm a blessing to them.


Here are some changes happening to my blogs:


Pause Dream Enjoy:

I have spread out my projects to post 
every week until the end of the year.

At least 2 projects a week will post, 
some weeks will have 3-4 projects posted.

Thankfully, I work ahead, and already have 
the rest of the year scheduled.

(I spent yesterday getting all that 
sorted & moved around on the calendar.)


Crafting Happiness Challenge Blog:

Starting immediately all challenges will be
Anything Goes - Every Type of Crafting Welcome!

Also starting June 1st, 
there will no longer be a design team
on my challenge blog. 

It will just be me sharing one 
of my projects for inspiration.

I obviously won't be able to 
comment on every entry, 
but I do see all of 
the entries when choosing Top Picks.


My Design Teams:

I have all of my Design Team 
projects 
for my challenge blog 
and the other 
challenge blogs where I am
a design team member completed.

They are all scheduled and
ready to post at the appropriate time
for the rest of the year.

Unfortunately, 
at that time I'll be stepping down 
from all other Design Teams. 

Which is very sad, but necessary. 




Once I get the hang of working again,
I'd like to add a new feature to my blog 
if I have the energy & time. LOL

There are blogs out there that share monthly 
Scripture Writing, 
Daily Prayer topics for your Journal, 
and other types of prompts to motivate you 
to open your Bible and spend time with God. 

I love using these, 
and am thinking about starting 
something like that here.

If this is something you'd like to see 
or have other suggestions, 
please share them with me in the comments. 

I'm not sure when I can get this started, 
but it's something that keeps crossing my mind, 
so I want to pursue it at some point.


Thank you all so much for supporting my blog
with your visits & comments since May 2009!!

Can you believe on May 25th,
Pause Dream Enjoy with be 14 years old?!!

Have a blessed day.
I appreciate you so much.
God bless you.

142 Flowers @ Crafting Happiness Challenges

It's time for a new Monthly challenge at 

Ch# 142
Flowers

I hope you'll join us.
Any type of crafting welcome.


I love making 3D cards.
This one like 99.9% of the others I make
will fold flat for mailing.

The colorful flowers and details
are what I think makes this so appealing.

This is a Lori Whitlock file from the
Silhouette library.

There are a lot of colors and cuts so it will take
a bit longer to get all the pieces ready to assemble
for the card, but it's so worth the results.

Cut file: Lori Whitlock, Silhouette library
Design Paper: Pink & Main
Embellishments: Rhinestones for some of the flower centers
Other: Foam tape for dimension in some areas
