Getting scrappy with it!

I was busy scrapping last night. I am so stressed out about Andrew's Lay off and the whole job situation. It would be ok if he got unemployment but he isn't because they still have not fixed his wages (they filed them under the wrong SSN) And we are really hurting now.
Sucks he is working his butt off AND doing everything right but because of a companies error we are in debt and broke. We even saved for this type of thing but have used the savings on all the lay offs they have given him.
Very upsetting and everyone keeps telling me its ok. Which stresses me out more. So I don't say much anymore and just cry by myself.
I sure wish I had a good friend nearby to lean on a bit.
Oh well.
So here are the two Layouts I did last night.
It was my first experiment in making my own chipboard graphics. I didn't have the money to buy the fun arrows I wanted so I made some by hand.

I used my cuttlebug embossing folder to emboss the paper and ink it before I glues it on the chipboard letters. Cuttlebug works great in a Sizzix!

The paper on the embellishments is the Crate Paper line Hampton, I really love double sided cardstock paper form Crate Paper!

The story of the Livingroom Ice Skating is in the folder.
