Thanks a Million
Happy Monday, all! I finished up all of my Christmas cards over the weekend and I'm almost (but not quite!) burned out on Christmas stamps and paper for this year. Sooo… my card share today is an all-season thank you card!
The background is some thin foil paper – I believe it was meant for origami – that has been in my stash forever and a day. I dry embossed it and was thrilled with how it came out, so I think I know what I'll be doing with the rest of that stash!
To make the "Million" yellow, I colored it with a yellow Sharpie after heat embossing the sentiment in white. Love that trick! I used the same yellow Sharpie to color my white crochet thread yellow, too!
The sentiment was stamped with the now-retired Stampin' Up! Word Play stamp set. Everything else is linked below!

The Places You'll Go…
Hello friends! Sorry for my absence! My day job has been extremely busy and I've been on some work-related travel, so unfortunately the fun stuff like cardmaking and blogging have fallen to the wayside for a bit. I do have a card share for today but I don't know when the next one will be!
This card was a commission for a co-worker who wanted a card large enough for their group to sign for their supervisor. So this is card is about 5 x 7. It's for a guy that loves books and reading. And hopefully he likes leaves and gold shimmer spray, lol!
Forgive the picture quality here – I gave it to my co-worker then realized I hadn't snapped a picture of it so I grabbed it back from her real quick and took one at her desk! Here's a closer shot where you can see the leaves and shimmer spray. I'm obsessed with this stuff for some reason – only in gold, I don't like it in any other color!
I also made the envelope peeking out from an old random bit of scrapbooking paper – source unknown. Much easier than finding the right size envelope for an odd-sized card like this one!
I used retired Stampin' up! First Edition paper for the background, and stamped on it with retired SU! Autumn Leaf Prints stamps that I inked in a variety of fall colors, including retired colors SU Creamy Caramel, SU Summer Sun, and SU Handsome Hunter. Everything else is listed below!

Just Sitting Here
I got some new stamps! I needed them, right? LOL! I've had my eye on this cute set from Hero Arts for awhile and finally got it.
I decided to use it for this week's Shopping Our Stash challenge. We were given this image for our inspiration to use woodgrain and/or this color story:
I decided to try to use both, and in the spirit of Shopping Our Stash I also used some scrap papers and an embossing folder that I've had for a long time and rarely used.
I added a pop of pink to the color scheme and used a fun print for my chair. The base is cut to 4″ wide to accomodate the pennant hanging off the side and still be an A2 card. I inked the embossed base with a little Distress Ink Tumbled Glass to enhance the embossing.
I think this is a great card for Operation Write Home and I have a feeling I'll be making more of these paper pieced chairs in a zillion different print patterns!

Thinking of You Today & Smiling
I've been playing around in my scraps bin again – actually it's no longer a bin, it's an accordion file. That's part of the playing around
I found another challenge blog I hadn't played in yet so I thought I'd give it a try – Hand Stamped Sentiments. The current challenge is this great sketch:
Any geometric shape would work, I think, but I've been wanting to play around with the idea of an old fashioned hexagon quilt pattern so here's what I ended up with…
Sorry for the quality of the picture. I moved my Ott Lite and apparently that was a bad idea! The patterned papers are all scraps as is the cardstock and ribbon. The hexagons were cut on my Silhouette. Everything linkable is listed below!

Love You
Happy rainy Thursday everyone Today I have a sweet little confection of a card to share. I decided to participate in the Moxie Fab World Tuesday Trigger this week. If you aren't familiar, they do a great inspiration photo challenge every week. This week's photo was this beautiful bedroom….
Don't you just want to jump on that bed? No? Just me?
My inspirations here were the sweet feminine bedding, specifically the floral coverlet and the little puff-dots on the comforter. I also loved that the bed skirt is box-pleated. I love a good box pleat! And finally, the chunky A on the bedside table was also an inspiration.
Here's what I came up with…
The papers are from the Authentique Grace collection 6 x 6 pad. The cardstock is some SU! Blush Blossom which I have been hoarding – still can't believe they retired this color! The LOVE letters were cut on my Silhouette and beefed up with some extras cut from cardstock (I will never have a baggie full of random unused chipboard alphabets again, thank you, Silhouette!) I intentionally mussed the box pleated paper so it didn't look too perfect and rigid.
Thanks for visiting today!

Missing You
Hello friends! Back today with more scraps cards!
You'll notice that these are fall themed, and that's because my scraps bin is like a fossil record, and we have reached Fall 2012 in our excavation, lol. I made these into "Missing You" cards for Operation Write Home to go in a box that will be sent later this year in time for the shippers to use for fall and Christmas cards.
I used three patterned paper strips and three die cut leaves, so this is an example of using odd numbers in design, which is this month's Design Bootcamp from Paula! I've always liked things in threes on cards, I just never knew why til now
Also please note that these dark card bases are lined with white liner paper since that is easier for our deployed troops to use to write home.
About these cards: Leaves from scrap cardstock were die cut on my Big Shot using the Sizzix Originals Leaves #2 die. I then dry embossed them with SU! embossing folders (Houndstooth and Square Lattice). I stamped the sentiment from Hero Arts Right at Home with Versafine Sepia ink. I used fall colored scraps to create my horizontal stripes and then accented that with embroidery thread.

Tags 2!
Last week we made six more tags at the Haughton House, and actually I made seven because there was a variation offered for one tag and I couldn't decide so I made it both ways.
I think the patriotic one might be my favorite!
This one made me remember why I love crackle paint!
Isn't Frankie fun? Love him!
We used a cool metal tape technique to make this one. Can't wait to try some variations on it.
Here's my twofer, love these fall colors.
This one got away from me a little bit… the folded vellum wreath thing is about twice as big as I intended it to be. I just could not get a handle on making that flower/wreath. Still pretty though, right?

O, Happy Day!
I made this bright and cheerful birthday card for my dear friend Kate, and I have been waiting for her to receive it in the mail so I could finally post it! (Ok, I haven't had to wait that long, it just felt like it, lol!)
The rainbow was drawn by hand using Faber-Castell Gelatosthat were loaned by my friend Cindy (thanks, girl!) This was my first use of them and they were fun, like crayons for grown-ups!
About this card: The rainbow was hand drawn using Faber-Castell Gelatos and then sprayed with Radiant Rain Shimmer Mist in Ice to give it a subtle sparkle. The clouds are dry embossed on my Big Shot using the SU! Cloudy Day embossing folder. I trimmed it out by hand and popped the pieces on dimensionals to give the idea of a rainbow peeking out from behind the clouds. The sentiment from BoBunny Sentiments stamp set was stamped in Versafine Onyx Black and trimmed to a pennant shape by hand. The red cardstock mat is DCWV.

Notecard Set with Envelope Tutorial
Hello, friends!
Today I have a cute card set to show you, and a quick tutorial on making envelopes.
I made a set of ten notecards to give away as a door prize at my recent OWH Cardmaking event. These are square cards measuring 3.5″ x 3.5″ with coordinating envelopes. I did 2 each of 5 designs (one to keep, one to send!)
The technique here uses watercolor paper which holds up well for the abuse I put it through. I stamped a series of images in waterproof black ink, then dry embossed the panels, inked them, distressed the edges, and then sprayed them thoroughly with water mixed with Perfect Pearls powder.
Aren't these cute? The sparkle of the Perfect Pearls is hard to capture in pictures but it looks so pretty in person.
To go along with these cards I created envelopes out of coordinating patterned paper. I don't know if you have gotten a chance to play with the new Envelope Punch Board from We R Memory Keepers but I am smitten with the thing. So much so that I created a short tutorial on how I made these envelopes! Check it out here.

Sending Happy Thoughts
Recently I've been trying to use up some old stash, all the better to make room for new stash . One of the things I tend to hoard is pretty paper, so I pulled out some and made some quick and easy cards that featured the paper and used up some random sentiments I had previously stamped.
About the cards: The cardbases are dry embossed with the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder (SU). The rest of the supplies are random from my stash.
Tags: creamy caramel, designer label punch, dry embossing, ribbon, scallop circle punch, twine, very vanilla, vintage wallpaper

Acyclovir dosage during outbreak
Common Questions and Answers about Acyclovir dosage during outbreak
In saying that I have drastically changed my diet and started
my first ob (which I just got over in a little over a week). My dr. put me on acyclovir 200mg 5xDaily. First question: From what I have read so far everyone is on 400mg 2xDaily. Is my dosage right? Second question: Is it a good idea to keep taking it for suppresion or only take it when I feel an outbeak coming?

I was originally prescribed 400 mg of acyclovir twice daily for suppression of my herpes type 2. Recently, I asked my doctor to increase my
to 800 mg of
twice daily. Is there any negatives associated with taking a higher dose than what is normally prescribed for suppression. Also, are there any benefits to taking a higher dose regularly for suppression like less shedding?

He has herpes, and to prevent me from getting it, takes
before and
the periods we visit each other. Unfortunatley, this past Sunday (before he started acyclovir again) he had an outbreak. He promtly took the medicine (4 pills each day since) and never developed blisters. He describes it as a bit of redness which is fading. I am going to see him in two days. Is he contagious? Should we have sex or wait?

Also, there are 2 spots above my clitoris (where the labia split) that look like little papercuts that burn and itch. On my
rx label it says to increase the
to 2 tabs three times daily for 2 days during an outbreak and Ive done that but it did not help the situation. I would normally go to the dr. immediately but they will be closed until next monday after the holiday. I really dont know if this is a herpes outbreak (if so then why didnt the meds work?

In October '11, I left to go to another country (for work) and STILL maintained my monogamous relationship (I thought SHE WAS THE ONE); came back after 2 weeks later.
the flight back, I developed sinus/cold symptoms, I just thought of the recycled air inside the plane. In the past, my sinus takes forever to get cleared and i have to take antibiotics for it. In Dec '11 while I still have my sinus/cold problems, I DEVELOP BLISTERS(3-4 blisters) under the shaft of penis !

What can I do? Thanks!

I'm now having another outbreak (since the beginning of April). It's now going on three months with this very severe
. My dr prescribed
200 mg one capsule five times a day and fluconazole 100 mg one a day for seven days. Nothing has subsided. I use a tube of vagisil a day to help with the itching which is severe. I need other options. This is getting expensive and it's very, very painful.

I was originally diagnosed in 2005 and once the initial
was cleared up I took suppressive medication for the first couple years on the GSK patient assist program. I am no longer on a suppressive med although I just found out that Planned Parenthood will prescribe acyclovir for episodic or suppressive. Over the last 2-3 months I have had multiple outbreaks.

mild out-breaks and just up my
as needed to control (no full blown outbreaks).
a recent physical exam, I mentioned to my doctor that I had never had a positive culture or serology test for HSV-2 so we decided to do one. Surprisingly, the results for HSV-2 (and HSV-1) were negative. HSV Type 1 - Specific Ab, IgG Result was <0.91 (negative) HSV Type 2 - Specific Ab, IgG Result was <0.

I was visually diagnosed in 2008 with genital herpes (of course the nurse took a swab of the leison) and put me on 200mg of
5x's a day for 2 weeks. After that initial

for 3 mos and then POW another one. Initially I was treated by my campus clinic for the first two outbreaks, but soon there after I returned home and informed my personal GYN.

IF you notice any symptons see your dr right away. Used to be believed that a high
of acyclofer (sp)
the initial outbreak would put herpes into long term remission. Not sure about current medical practices but you should become informed and keep your doctor informed. *** This is not to be construed as medical advice and for such you should see a licensed physician.

I abstain from sex when I have an genital
, use intermittent therapy for the symptoms (
), and condoms for sex the rest of the time. I have outbreaks in two different areas, the back of my thigh and my genitals. They never occur at the same time. I have not typically abstained from sex during an outbreak on my thigh. I just don't touch it and make sure my partner doesn't either.

I had 5 more outbreaks during the year after. I have since been abstinent but a year later began taking a daily
200mg in August of 2010 (one pill twice daily) and have not had an outbreak since. Last week (a year and a half after the culture test and a year and half after the last time I had sex) I got some blood tests done just in case the culture test had been wrong. I had blood drawn and tested for HSV-1 and HSV-2 and both came back NEGATIVE!

She gave me valtrex for my
and sent me to a gynocologist who confirmed the herpes, gave my
to take on an ongoing basis and said it was ok to have sex. But before I could think of all my questions she was gone. So I was still in shock and told my lover. He was ok with me having herpes. In the meantime the first affair ended and I have been with another lover, again in a very similar situation but much younger than me.

I already took
daily for 5 days with 400 mg
at 5 times daily but the cluster of small bumps still have not burst and the redness did not go away. Other than the initial tingly feeling in the first weeks of exposure, I did not experience any significant pain on my genital. Would it be possible that I may have an acute HIV infection that caused the bumps did not burst for this long? Up to now (4 weeks post exposure), have not had any fever. Highest temp recorded so far is 37.

However, right after I took the PCR test last Friday (two weeks after my initial symptoms broke out), I started getting the same aching, burning sensation yet with no symptoms on the right side of my vaginal lip in the exact same location. I started taking three 400 mg
pills last Friday (the
I take when I get a cold sore), and by about 48 hours later, all symptoms had gone away everywhere and my vaginal region felt "normal" for the first time in weeks.

One lady described having genital herpes outbreaks once a month over many many years, but after reading that garlic extract kills viruses and bacteria, decided to put garlic extract on a lesion

2 weeks later I experienced another severe outbreak at a different location on my genitals, this time I visited a STD specialist
and was confirmed that it is indeed a pretty severe herpes outbreak, now its almost 2 weeks since the last outbreak began and it is healing and scabbing, this morning as the last few remaining scabs are peeling I noticed another lesion forming hence indicating another outbreak.

. I'm also finding that a lot of my questions are just being half-answered by what I find online. For instance... - How common is the spread of herpes to the fingers, mouth, or eyes? - How can I prevent that? - Is there any way that my future children could contract herpes if I were to deliver them by c-section? - My insurance company wouldn't cover Valtrex, only Acyclovir.

My boyfriend is in the process of getting a blood test for herpes but we suspect that he does not have any infection as he has no history of cold sores/lesions. I am currently taking
to treat this
and I am on my third day of treatment at 400 mg, three times daily. Here are my questions: 1. Is my dosage of acyclovir enough? I still feel a little itchy and noticed I still have bumps in the shower. How long will it take to clear up? 2.

I just spoke to my Dr at PP again today and she sounded in a rush, she said to just refill my

At first, I was prescribed to take 500 mg of Valtrex daily for supp therapy and then to increase to 500 mg twice daily for 5 days when having an

[5][6][7] A review of human subjects treated for five days with Famciclovir 250 mg three times daily
their first herpes episode found that only 4.2 percent experienced a recurrence within six months after the first outbreak, a five-fold decrease compared to the 19 percent recurrence in acyclovir-treated patients.[8] Despite these promising results, early Famciclovir treatment for herpes in this or similar dosage regimes has yet to find mainstream adoption.

The explicit goal is to make sure students are college- and career-ready.
Less subjects to cover, but more in-depth.
Greater cross-curricular focus.
In math: greater conceptual understanding so that students can solve real-world problems in a variety of contexts.
In English: to be able to appreciate the author's purpose and back up one's comments with evidence from the text.

"With Common Core there are fewer subjects, but there's a deeper understanding and more coordination between lessons. It gives a little more time to teach and gets kids involved with their learning so that they are thinking about it rather than doing monotonous bookwork."
Michelle McCombs, Courreges Elementary kindergarten teacher
"As teenagers we are really connected to our mobile devices. I really like the ways that teachers are incorporating social media into instruction. It makes learning more fun and enjoyable, which makes us more likely to remember the lessons."
Beverly Pham, 16, ASB tech commissioner at Fountain Valley High
"You can't be as long-winded on Twitter, but that's another good skill: to distill your thoughts into the smallest space possible. It's really teaching those digital citizenship skills."
Sean Ziebarth, who uses Twitter in his AP English and journalism classes at Fountain Valley High
After a year of preparations, Fountain Valley schools are adjusting their lesson plans to reflect the Common Core State Standards.
The new assessments, adopted by 45 states, emphasize close readings of texts in language arts and explanations of answers in math.
Gone are the days of multiple-choice tests in which students could rely on the process of elimination to help them pass.
Now it's all about the educational journey, not the bubbled-in answer.
Starting in 2014-15, students will have to take new standardized tests on computers, which mean teachers are modifying what they teach and how they're teaching it.
Luckily, they're getting help from Common Core consultants – and from Google, Apple and Twitter.
The biggest fear surrounding Common Core is with the unknown – specifically, not knowing how students are going to be evaluated, administrators say.
For more than a decade, schools have geared teaching toward preparing students for the California Standardized Tests, or CSTs. This year, schools have to strike a balance between preparing students for the CSTs and making the transition to Common Core before 2015.
Even though schools have yet to see the final exams, they do have guidelines.
Students will be expected to support their arguments with textual evidence. Math classes will be grounded in more real-world contexts. Subjects will be fewer but more in-depth.
"The long and short of it is kids are going to have to explain their thinking, not just give an answer," said Andrew Heughins, principal at Ethan Allen Elementary.
The way that students explain their thinking is also changing, Heughins added, because the Common Core exams will be administered on a computer.
The specter of computerized testing has caused a big push for more technology, both from teachers and at the district level.
The Fountain Valley school board is on the verge of hiring a public information officer to help get the message out that schools need iPads, new computers and the money to buy them. In the past two years, the Fountain Valley Educational Fund has cut its performing arts funding in half in favor of increased funding for new technology.
"Technology doesn't replace education, but it does allow us to access information," Superintendent Marc Ecker said. "If you're going to need to prove a point, make an argument and support it, the access you have to information is critical."

On Monday, the Middlesex Lady Chargers varsity basketball team avenged an earlier loss to the Northumberland Indians with a 52-37 non-conference win in Saluda.
The Lady Chargers used a suffocating defense and relied on their fast break offense to create some easy baskets. The tone of the game was set early when the Lady Chargers came out and played at an up-tempo pace.
"We played with tons of energy tonight and if that is how we choose to play, our year should be a successful one," said Lady Charger coach Neil Wake. "It was a true team effort and I am proud of each and every one of them for taking on this challenge of protecting their home
The Lady Chargers hosted Lancaster on December 17 and will host Colonial Beach at MHS in Saluda on Thursday, December 18, in their final game before the holidays. "We are looking for everyone's continued support," said Wake. "Thanks for all the love."
The JVs play at 6 p.m. The varsity plays at 7:30 p.m.

Cleans everything from your messiest pans to your finest stemware. High pressure spray jets and increased temperatures power off tough, stuck-on food while finishing steam helps clean and reduce spots on glassware.
No more scraping plates. The 4-blade stainless steel chopper disintegrates the food particles that come off your dishes so they don't end up recirculating and sticking to your dishes and glassware.
Strengthened by the industry's most powerful motor4 available, each cycle blasts away tough soils for clean dishes the first time.
Clean dishes start with better built parts. And with the 2X Life tested motor21 and a 10-year limited parts warranty3, this is an ENERGY STAR® qualified dishwasher you can count on. There's no need to rinse off dried-on food thanks to the ToughScrub™ option and a powerful 4-blade stainless steel chopper. For even more cleaning power,the Jetclean® Plus Steam cycle blasts off food particles with high-pressure spray jets and then adds the finishing touch of steam to clean and reduce spots on glassware. The Auto Clean cycle also uses sensors that monitor soil levels to help get dishes clean. Plus, fully integrated controls and a 100% stainless steel tub offer a contemporary look that matches any kitchen.
The 100% stainless steel tub not only looks great and resists corrosion, it also delivers premium drying performance by providing higher heat retention, drawing moisture away from dishes to help prevent spots on glassware and water drops on plastic containers.
Maytag® dishwashers are covered by a 10-year limited parts warranty3 on the racks, chopper blade and stainless steel tub, so when we say you can count on Maytag® dishwashers for years of cleaning performance, we mean it.
When cleaning up after a big meal, you always need room to fit just one more glass or plate. The tiered upper rack is designed like stadium seating to hold large plates and taller items. In the lower rack, this creates enough space to place two 9" x 13" pans vertically.
