New projects coming soon....

I got my Creative Cuts & More order yesterday and already have one project done! I am going to a crop this weekend with my Mom and I got something fun to play with from CC&M...you might be seeing more of it often as I LOVE it!!!

Just wanted to let you know that I am on the way back to normal and should be posting stuff more often soon.

What a long week!

I was hoping to keep up with some new posts but had to put that on hold for now. My FIL passed away last Saturday after a long 18 month battle with leukemia. I am a very lucky person to have known him and also for the fact that both my hubby's family and mine have gotten along so very well over the past 13 years! We have been able to spend every holiday together as one family which has been very nice for us and our girls. He will be missed, but we know that he is in a much better place and are glad he is no longer suffering!

I do hope you will forgive me for not posting right now, but I will be back soon as I just placed my order for my upcoming guest designer spot with Creative Cuts and More...

Bridal Shower Card

Yikes it has been a long time since I have posted!!! I made this card in early February for a shower I went to, her colors were blue and brown so of course the card had to be blue and brown! I started with some blue Bazzil paper, used my new curvy rectangle nesties and some rubons from SU! and this is how it ended up. I really love the way it turned out, and it only took about 10 minutes once I decided what I was doing!

Thanks for stopping by today and I do hope to be back again very soon with something new!

CC&M First Ever Blog Hop!

Did you check it out yet??? There are some really great ideas and projects on these blogs! Take a minute or two to look at all the blogs in the blog hop starting with DieCut Diva and ending with Pam's blog, Paper Askew Studio.

The CC&M blog hop starts at DieCut Diva. Each "hop" will be offering blog candy, please visit the hops and leave a comment at each stop. The blog candy comments can be left until 11:59pm on Thursday night, March 5th and winners will be posted on Friday March 6th.

I will try to post a picture of some items you can get from CC&M that I have done in the past...my creative mojo has left me and I can't seem to finish a new project right now.

If you do stop by all of the blogs in the blog hop, let me know what your favorite was.

Thank You Card

Today's card is one that I made about a month ago thinking I would use it for my card class, but decided not to. I really love the color combo of the Pirouette Pink and Riding Hood Red with white and the Heartfelt Thanks flower is one of my favorites.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you have a nice relaxing Sunday!

Celebrate

Another card from a class I did 2 weeks ago, similar to the one I posted yesterday. I used the Baja Breeze paper and ink along with Very Vanilla paper and then added Riding Hood Red, So Saffron and Regal Rose for the flowers. I was so very sad to see that the sentiment set was retiring as I love it so much, so of course I had to use it for my last few card classes. I got the idea for this card from Splitcoast Stampers, not sure who it was, but Thank You for sharing!!

Today we are hanging out and getting caught up on laundry since my wonderful Dad came and fixed our washer the other night....crazy how much laundry can pile up when you can't do some every day! I do hope to get a chance to work on my scrapbooks soon, I hate seeing that stuff pile up on the computer and my craft area. Oh, we also have to go and find a frame for DD's first place ribbon and certificate from the spelling bee! Here is the picture of her holding them both (her friend was giving her a thumbs up in the picture) Sorry for the white erasing on the picture, I could not get the blur to work the way I wanted it to.

Misc. card

I really love the colors on this card, all but the chocolate chip ribbon were from Kristina's color challenge last week...hard to see the pink flowers though. We made these last week as well and the ladies loved how they turned out since they were able to put a sentiment on them for what they wanted. I left mine blank for now, just not sure what I will end up using it for....

Sorry for the delay on this post, we have had a busy week around here. On Wednesday my oldest daughter won her school spelling bee and I got to be there to watch!!! She is supposed to go onto the district round now, but that is the day we will be flying home from Mexico so her alternate is going instead. I am just so very proud of her and happy that my plans changed so that I could be there! Pictures coming soon....

I hope you all have a wonderful Friday and I look forward to hearing from you.
