 Set 3: American Crafts-Hello Sunshine(13 12x12 pages) 

Here's more information about Chacoy and her blog, Ma21CuteBoy

I started blogging in June of 2009 as a way of exploring bloggers that created and inspired me! I began to blog about my own experiences as a mom and shortly after my blog took off!
I am a single mom to a tween boy who I talk about often. He's a preemie, I had him at 28 weeks. He weighed 2 lbs. 4.5 oz. and other than some speech and developmental delays he is perfect!
I have a dry sense of humor but find it in everything-people always tell me that they don't know if I am joking or serious, but if you don't know me you'll never know!! *insert evil laugh* My family is always joking around and we actually dubbed ourselves the 'Griswolds.' I don't kow if that needs anymore explaining?
I was diagnosed with cancer last year and love to tell my story in hopes that I might be able to inspire others that cancer does not define you and your life.
I am a full time student working on becoming an RN. I am a girly girl but I am a geek at heart!


I ♥ chapstick, ruffles, handbags, shoes, video games, technology, writing, math, sewing, scrapping, makeup, nail polish, pedicures, chocolate, surprises and presents.
I love math for the simple reason that it is amazing figuring something out that you thought you couldn’t and I feel that often goes hand-in-hand with technology! l-o-v-e it!!
I also love to create-there is something satisfying in seeing what you’ve made! My latest creation or creations have landed me into sewing, I was supposed to start lessons but they unfortunately didn't work out so I have started to do them online on youtube and through tutorials. I am learning a lot and can't wait to share some of my pieces!
I love photography, it gives me the opporunity to share with others what I see all of the time and it gives me great satisfaction to share something that is priceless.

Guest Post and January 2011 Online Crop Prize- Jessica's Craft Shaque

Hi everyone! JessicasCraftShaque here! I am a mother of 5 who has the beautiful opportunity to stay at home with my children everyday. And how great is it, that I am able to take some time out for myself to do the things I love....crafting! I am currently designing custom layouts for those who want to display their cherished memories, but don't have the time to put an album together.

I have also started a line of miniature albums (chipboard and paper bag). I am able to accept custom orders if you have a specific color scheme, or specific theme (i.e. baby on board, our wedding, son, daughter, pet, etc.) you prefer.

I work mostly with 12 X 12 layouts, but I can also do 8 1/2 X 11 albums as well. I use only high quality, photo safe materials.
Please take a moment to check my site, Jessica's Craft Shaque.

Happy Crafting
Jessica Shelton

This giveaway will be going on my January Online Crop at my Blog Frog Community next weekend starting Thursday, January 27- Monday, January 31st!
