What a GREAT surprize!!!

OMG, when I checked my mail on friday, I had a key in my box (we have post office boxes here). So I get my little wonderful key and take it to the lock boxes and see what awaited me.... It was a big package from my dear friend Kari from BlogLand! She is just tooooo much. She sent me sooo many things. I know those people that walked into the post office thought I was a weirdo for Ooo'ing and Ahhh'ing over my goodies from her. LOL

Her and I had talked about envelope making before and she came across an evelope templete and thought of me and grabbed an extra and sent it with MANY other fun things. I can't wait to work on the heart shapped book and the flowers are gorgeous. There are a baggie of little autumn leaves and as soon as I saw those Fall cards popped in my head.
Kari, you made my day, TOTALLY. And I'm truly sorry that I wasn't able to post about it and give my thanks to you sooner. But you know how Easter weekend can get. ;)
Lots and Lots of hugs to you!!!!! :) :)

You Crack Me Up

These were the Easter Cards I made. I used the same things from the Teachers cards, plus the SU! scallop punch and new polytwill ribbon. I love that stuff!!

Hippity Hoppity

I wish you all a VERY Happy Easter!! Enjoy the day with family and friends.

My goodness, I have so much to share....

Wow, I haven't even shared the projects that we made from the workshop at my SU! demonstrators house from last weekend. Shame on me!!
So this is the ADORABLE little egg basket we made from a template and embossing. It was my first time to emboss and we even did the tissue. Cute huh?!? You can get the template from Amy Celona's blog.

And then we made these two cards. Aren't they cute? We did some embossing on the St. Patty's card.


This is the American Idol LO for Challenge #2 at Scrap-Tastic.com. We had a list to choose from for our title. And of course they were song titles. I chose 'call me'. We had to use metal, stamps and stars....so I used a star stamp.

This LO was for a challenge at Scrapperie for a theme, which was Easter/Spring. So I made another page for Ryan's easter pics from 2006. I love the little glittered corners on the left side. :)

The next challenge at Scrapperie was to scraplift a favorite LO of my own. So I lifted the one of Me and Chad called 'Truly Madly Deeply'. We also had a few other things in the list we could choose from to go with this challenge.

Patterned paper – Basic Grey or Imaginesce
Specialty paper – grid or lined paper
Lettering – stickers, Thickers, or rub-ons
Embellishments – buttons, ribbon, or brads/eyelets,
Technique to try – try some stamping on your layout!
Photos – How about a layout with you in it?!
Inspiration – scraplift yourself! Find a layout you've done in the past that you like and lift it!
And this also goes along with the other LO I did for his first day of 2nd Grade.
Last one, this was for another challenge at scrapperie. It was a circle sketch challenge. And again I made another LO to go with Ryan's Easter 2006.

If you hung around and looked at all of this, I thank you :) I'll try not to be a slacker anymore...LOL But as you can see, I've been rather busy creating. :)

Teacher's Easter Cards

I made 2 of these cards for the kids teachers. Super simple and easy. I used the Stampin' Up 'Good Egg' stamp set with the SU! color pencils and popdots. And I used my blender pens on the color pencils.

Easter layout

We had a challenge at to make a LO from a sketch. I meant to make this a 2 for 1...LOL, but I used a color photo instead of a b&w. So it ended up just being 1 challenge.

Recapping February 2008

This month wasn't all that great. It seems that everyone was sick a different week. I thought I was out of the woods, until this past weekend. I ended up having back pain and I've had it all week. The month was also busy with both Valentine's Day parties at school for the kids. As well as the book fair. Just the other day Saira had a field trip to see The Education Express concert tour with the Pre-K and Kindergarden. This month I also went to scrapbook at my friend Kim's house. We hadn't done that in FOREVER. Then I had my first online cyber crop. That was alot of fun, although I believe that's what caused my back pain. I think I need a new chair for scrappin'. ....or maybe a new table, a tall one, so I can stand and scrap. :)

So now I look forward to a healthy and fun new month with March. :)

all of my goodies

So in the last 2 weeks, I've gone online shopping crazy. I bought the Pink Paislee Office Lingo and Spring Fling...oh and a few sheets of the Making Memories Noteworthy. Then I bought a big ol box of buttons. And then in the 2 small glass jars are about 390 buttons...LOL In the middle bigger jar is the Making Memories Garden Party flowers and buttons....and with it I have the Garden Party Paper kit. There's also some flocked alpha stickers and some bling. :) I've bought alot more but I don't remember what it was....like riboons and other things. ;) I can't wait to use my stuff.


.....Did I mention I am no longer button poor. LOL ;)

completions from the Cyber Crop

Yesterday I was able to scrap ALLLLLLLLLLLL day long. Seriously, I scrapped for 15 hrs. I managed to get 7 challenges done. There were 10 plus an extra to make a bingo card for the bingo game.
Here's the first one I completed. The challenge was called 'Lucky 7'. We needed to use seven things on the LO from the list provided yesterday.

This next one was a Monochromatic challenge. So duh, my color was pink.

And this next one for the 'give it an edge' challenge.

And then it was Bingo time and we have to have our Bingo cards completed and uploaded to the 'gallerie' by 6pm. Yeah, it was 5:45 and I totally forgot about it. I was running all over my scraproom trying to rush and get it completed. We had a list of words to chose from. I was late completing it, but they waited on me. I need to fix my little boo-boo's...as you can see. BTW, I won 2 bingos...HEHE, I wouldn't have the 3rd bingo, but I wasn't paying attention.

Then it was the 'tag' challenge. We had to make a tag using 2 pp's, buttons, ribbons or fibers and stitching. I love my tag!!

This was the last challenge I was able to complete. We had to make a card using CS only, stamps, ink, circle, ribbon and rub-ons. Ugh, the rub-on part was giving me such a hard time. But finally I found these brown flowers and thought maybe it would work. And I suppose it's ok...lol

UGH!!

I am so ticked off with Blogger. For the last week and a 1/2 I haven't been able to change the colors on here. The page won't fully load. Is it just me or is everyone else having this problem. I saw that blogger posted an update on their blog thingy when you sign in and they didn't mention anything about layout/elements/font/color issues. GRRRR!! :( I just want to change from red to green. GESH!!!

Fun Weekend

Saturday we ventured out before the nasty storm came through. I needed to go pick up Saira's portraits. I'll scan those later to share with you. They turned out pretty, except for the ones of her and I. I looked weird...LOL
Anyways, before we went home, we stopped at the tire store. The city had announced that BigFoot (monster truck) would be there at the tire store all weekend to see and take pictures of. Well, on Saturday Feb. 2nd, Chad and Ryan went to Houston to the Monster Jam show. BigFoot wasn't there that night though. So anyways, we went to the tire store, hopped out and took a few pictures. I had to take these with my cell, because I left my camera at home.



Yesterday I went to my friend Kim's house to scrapbook. We hadn't done that in MONTHS. It was great. I only got 3 pages completed and 1 more started.


I think I'm going to journal on this one of Chad and Saira. I haven't decided yet.

I don't like how the title looks on this one. I was hoping it would look better than this. I may do a paper piece title or something.... to cover it up. I used Deja Views papers for this one, Queen & Co. felt border, Fancy Pants chipboard, I inked that with Stampin Up green ink, Target ribbons and gem flowers and felt butterflies. I have Making Memories brads and mini safety pins on here as well.

A Recap

I was busy all last week trying to get all my challenges completed before Thursday night. I had Saira home on Monday. Tuesday I worked at the Book Fair at the kids school. I always try to do that every year. It's so much fun to help the little ones pick out their books. I was suppose to help Monday too, but I didn't get to with her being home.
So here's my last challenge, it was a 2 in 1 as well. The first challenge was from Shannon at the Scrapperie. She asked us to make a LO with a 'Love Song'. So I chose "Truly, Madly, Deeply". The other challenge was from Amanda Oates at Scrappy Gourmet. She asked us to make a LO with a Love Theme, with journaling and lots of bling. And this is what I came up with. :) I love it!!!

And this was from a challenge from Melissa Phillips at the Scrappy Gourmet. She asked us to make 3 Valentine Cards for children that are fun and whimsical, red, all 3 different and 1 had to be a heart shape card. So here is what I created. The one on the left was made for my daughters teacher, the middle was for the bus driver and the one on the right was for my sons teacher. :)


So Thursday was Valentine's Day. Did you all have a wonderful day with your sweeties? I sure did. :) The kids had their Valentine's Day parties and some how, I managed not to be incharge of either...LOL haha!! That was a first!! Saira's was at 10am because she only goes half the day. And during her party, my sweet and loving husband had a dozen gorgeous roses delivered to the school.

These are what I made for the kids parties. I made 23 cookies(14 for his class and 9 for hers). I used a Stampin' Up stamp and the tag punch to make labels for the cookies. On the backsides I wrote from Ryan or Saira.

Well, I believe that's about it....up until Saturday. I'll post about that next. ;)

Wow, it's been awhile....and a TAG!

Goodness, I let a week go by without posting?? I'll come back later today and post some pictures of my new layouts since last Friday...LOL I can't believe I haven't posted since then.

Superbowl Sunday

It's time for the Patriots and the Giants to duke it out. How many of you out there will be watching the game? I'm wanting to watch, I always do, but I have this urge to scrap or make cards...LOL Maybe if it do that now I'll get it out of my system and I'll be ready to watch the game. I'm for the Patriots. I'd hate for them to lose and have their undefeated record go down the drain. I'd like to see Randy Moss make ALOT of touchdowns for them as well.

So, will you be scraping and card making or watching the game? Do you have a superbowl party going on today? Are you going to take pictures so you can scrap it? :) :)

Well Happy Ground Hog Day!!

Yep, it's that time again... It's ground hog day!! Is Phil going to see his shadow or not? Will we be having 6 more weeks of winter weather or will we have an early Spring. Phil, you better not see that shadow. I'm already tired of winter and it just got started for us. LOL ;)

Woohooo...shopping...

Boy was today fun!!! I FINALLY went scrapbook shopping. I haven't been in probably 2 months. ACK!!!! But anyways, Jana and I stopped by Target and then to Hobby Lobby. I only spent $30 all together...go me. So I don't feel so guilty either. lol Perhaps my shopping day looked good because we stopped by Cyndi's (my stampin up lady) to get our orders. So I had lots of bags...hehe! I think I'll get crafty tonight.

My February is going to be a little boring for card making. Thank goodness for Valentine's Day though or I really wouldn't have anything to do in that area. But I found an old friend who's having an anniversary next week. So there's a card. Perhaps that means I'll be able to get more pages done. What do you think? I asked both the kids if they'd like for me to make their valentine's for them and they both said yes, but then Saira told me no after she saw all the boxed valentine's at walmart. So I'm not sure what the game plan is. LOL I guess we'll see before to long.

Recapping January 2008

This month went by so quickly. Starting off with our New Year celebration, Ryan and I had a fun time hanging out. Chad and Saira just couldn't hang with us. I opened up a bottle of bubbly for me and Ryan....the Welch's Sparkling Grape Juice...DUH!!! lol ;) And then nothing much really happened until the later 1/2 of the month with Saira's 5th birthday. What fun that was. She created her invite list which included all the family, some of my friends and a few of her friends. It was such a cute party. She got soooo many clothes again this year. This kid trips me out with how she LOOOOVES clothes. That's all she asked for besided a Hannah Montana wig. lol ;) The day of her birthday I took cupcakes up to the school for her and her classmates. Then more fun came along when I had a Stampin' Up workshop. Some friends and I made 3 cards that my demonstrator had lined out for us. I love having SU! parties!!! One day I'd love to be a SU! demonstrator. And then this last weekend the kids and I went to Houston to visit with my great aunt who had her 70th birthday. We took her out for ice cream since we weren't able to make it for lunch. And then to end the month off it was my friend Nina's birthday. So Saira and I went out for lunch with her and then some fun shopping.

I hope February will be just as fun!!! I know Valentine's Day will be great and I have a crop planned, so we'll see what else unfolds.
