Thank you..

Thank you all so much for the kind words and encouragement.  Truly - I just can't thank you all enough!!!  It has been a very strange and rewarding few days... between finding out we will probably have to move, to possibly having already found renters for our house... to now - I just got in the fund raiser order I did with a BN here in the Savannah area.... man... the rewards have just been amazing...

All I can do it turn it all over to God and trust in his plan.  Knowing his plan may not be my plan - but I have to move forward in knowing that he only wants us to prosper.

Speaking of prosper - I have over 150 tiles I have to get done in the next few days!!!  Holy Cow!!!! YES - you read right - over 150!!!! I can not tell you how rewarding it is to know that people like my stuff!!!!  WOW!!!!

So I will be heeding my own advice and making sure that I have my knife offset at zero and will be cutting vinyl like a mad women for the next few days!!!

But... you will be happy to know that I am one of the featured designers for the Oct Grab Bag at VDBC - and I got all my files in and ready to go INCLUDING a bonus file that will only be available for the first week of sales!!!  You don't want to miss it since it is an awesome Christmas gift idea that you can do for fairly cheap!!!!

Keep checking back for that!  You don't want to miss it - I promise!

Ok I am off to cut more vinyl!  Thanks again for all your words of encouragement and support!

Until Next Time!

I'm an idiot!!!

So if you got the VDBC Newsletter last week, then you saw the article I wrote about "Knife Offset" right?!?!? What?!?! You didn't read it?!?!?! Well if you are one of "those" people - you can read the article HERE. Heheheh!!!

Anyway - in the article I explained how important Knife offset is - and how it can effect your cuts GREATLY. So what did I do today??? I went to cut out some vinyl that I needed to complete a fairly large tile order and I can't get clean cuts to save my life!! I am like what?!?!?! Then after my fourth re-cut - I realize... yep I didn't even take my own advice and forget to change my Knife Offset. I reset up software - change my knife offset to zero.... and....

Low and behold, the cut was perfect, and the one after that and the one after that!!! Man, I am such an idiot!!!! I guess it just goes to prove that you can't teach an old dog a new trick?!?! Bahahhaa!!!!

Well, I feel like I need to let you all know that I am about 99.999% that we are going to have to move in the next three months! I am sooo sad.... I personally have lived in GA all my life.... different parts of GA from up north to the south east.... but always in GA. And now that looks like it will not be the case anymore.

I am very reluctant to move for some reason. I guess it all comes down to change and my comfort zone. I love love love our house that we built (from the ground up), I love where I live, I love my neighbors - I just love everything about here.... but... there comes a time where you have to think about the future and retirement and what is best for the family and I think this is the time.

As it stands right now - we are going to be depending on the needs of the Army - and who knows what their needs are!!! (Not even sure if they know!! Bahahaha!!)

Thus, not sure what is going to happen with the blog - don't be surprised if I am hit and miss as we try to figure out the road we will be traveling!!! I plan to keep you all posted as things develop and change - and NO MATTER where we end up - Beloved Keepsakes Cutter Designs will still be around! (Now Beloved Keepsakes web store may not... but I am hoping and praying this will not be the case!)

I promise to keep you up to date - and you may not even see any changes at all for a while, I just am not sure yet - so I wanted to give you a heads up as I start this new chapter in my life, if I am not blogging every day - you know why...but don't give up on me -I'll always come back... this is home!

Until Next Time!
