I am posting this on my blog as this touches my heart, Emma lives in my town. Please visit her site, and if you are feeling generous please go to her <a href="http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/emmafogarty">caringbridge</a> site to help her and her family out. <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><br />Background Story</span><br /><br />On Januray 27, 2009 Emma was diagnosed with a Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG) brain tumor, located on her brainstem. Due to the complex location of the tumor, doctors are unable to biopsy or surgically remove it. She has gone through 6 weeks of radiation treatment in hopes that the tumor has stopped growing. She has done an amazing job and we are so proud of her!!<br /><br />Just before Christmas 2008, Emma began noticing that her right eye wasn't keeping up with the left one and occasionally noticed double vision. We then noticed when she turned a certain way, her eye was not staying on track and immediately took her to an eye doctor. She was then referred to an Opthalmologist, who did a variety of testing and decided to consult with Emma's regular Pediatrician. A routine MRI scan was ordered on January 27th, and we were notified of the results immediately and on our way to Children's Hospital in Minneapolis later that afternoon. She loves Children's and is looking forward to spending more time there! Her positive attitude and willingness to be so compliant with the numerous tests she has gone through is absolutely amazing! It is hard to be sad when she is around, because she continues to light up the room with her energy. We are welcoming all prayers and continue to be optimistic as Emma begins her radiation on Monday, February 2nd. She will have radiation Mon-Fri for 6 weeks, and will have a repeat MRI on April 23rd to see the results. She will still be able to go to school and continue doing everything an outgoing 7-year-old does! We will do the best we can to update her progress and condition and would like to thank everyone for their love and support through this all.<br /><br />Love and Prayers,<br /><br />Mike, Tara, Emma and Abby<br /><br />If anyone wishes to send her cards, you are more than welcome to send them to the only address I have found was where to send her donations if you are not able to do it online: Klein Bank c/o Emma Fogarty Benefit Fund P.O.

I taught her paper piecing. If you don't know what that is... it's a fun, easy, and yet can be challenging if done with tired eyes that stayed up till 2am. By the way don't you just love that stamp set!! Oh I want it... not sure who its from or whats its called... <br /><br />This card, I made while Jeni was doing her own. It involved chalk embossing or at least that's what I am calling it, paper piecing, and lots of laughter... :-) <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5mRoORJHNAm_LhirAf10QIY7td5X-ndsuXBG3XVYCCwqgswnb7lm1G11b_d3WAwNBHeGoSEpIjy_cOTa1TpnxY-rruiQhKYbskJaM2Y4QLZUXVXE75xzhbme3DqnNtCdoGKZhyphenhyphenyI-Li1h/s1600-h/ctmh+nov.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 243px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5mRoORJHNAm_LhirAf10QIY7td5X-ndsuXBG3XVYCCwqgswnb7lm1G11b_d3WAwNBHeGoSEpIjy_cOTa1TpnxY-rruiQhKYbskJaM2Y4QLZUXVXE75xzhbme3DqnNtCdoGKZhyphenhyphenyI-Li1h/s320/ctmh+nov.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275402690506593234" /></a><br />To do the Chalk "Embossing"<br />Stamp your image using Versamark<br />Then take your desired chalk colors and using an applicator tool or even a q-tip color in and around your image as desired. <br />In some cases, I use a clear acrylic spray to help seal it. <br />But mostly when I mail them I put a photo sleeve over gives it more of a professional look to it. <br /><br />To do Paper Piecing<br />It involves stamping your image twice, once on a plain Cardstock, & the other on B&T paper (B&T= Background & Texture)<br />Using your scissors trim out the piece or pieces you want out of your B&T paper<br />Then apply them to your plain Cardstock image. <br /><br />Paper Piecing is time consuming, but is worth all the Oohs & Aahs!! <br />Feel free to share your paper piecing with me... :-)Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-524385181242487278.post-71719083670487491402008-12-02T20:54:00.007-06:002008-12-02T21:21:46.210-06:00Busy, Busy Bee am I...Oh, My is everyone still stuffed from Turkey Day??

I was really impressed. It's an easy recipe that they can follow and make themselves... with supervision of course... :-) <br />Try it and let me know what you think... <br /><br />Mini Caramel Apples<a href="http://pinterest.com/whimsy22/"><img src="http://passets-cdn.pinterest.com/images/small-p-button.png" width="16" height="16" alt="Follow Me on Pinterest" /></a><br /><br />Bite-size versions of the fall fair treat, these tiny "caramel" apples are a great party snack.<br /><br />RECIPE INGREDIENTS:<br /> 4-inch lollipop sticks<br /> Melon baller<br /> Granny Smith apples (one apple makes about 8 mini apples)<br /> Butterscotch or peanut butter chips<br /> Chopped nuts, nonpareils, sprinkles, shredded coconut (optional)<br /> Small paper candy cups<br />Step 1 - Mini Caramel Apples 1. First, cut the lollipop sticks in half at an angle (the pointy end will go into the apple pieces easier). With the melon baller, scoop little balls out of the apple. Each ball should have a section of apple peel. Push half of a lollipop stick into the peel of each ball. Pat the apple pieces dry.<br /><br />Mini Caramel Apples: Variations 2. Melt the chips according to the package directions. Dip and swirl the mini apples in the melted chips, then roll the apples in nuts, sprinkles, nonpareils, or coconut, if desired.
