Birthday Card for Marcy . . .

Marcy's birthday is on Wednesday and so today I made her a Birthday card . . . I again used the Kitchen Sink Stamps . . .they are so fun!! I love them!!

Here's the card:
I think that it turned out pretty cute!! Today was a fabulous day off . . . I was able to scrap some, bake some, grocery shop, and run errands all with only one kiddo!! So awesome!! I have meetings tomorrow at school and then a short week. The days off are nice, but the short weeks actually seem much longer!! Argh!! Happy Monday!!


Oh . . . if you're looking for something to do . . . head on over to Cropping Paradise for some fun Challenges that are going on!! I figured it would be fun to have a few challenges leading up to the big Design Team reveal (my fingers are crossed!!) . . . there are 6 challenges and I'd love to have you come and participate with us!! {http://www.croppinparadise.com/forums/index.php}

Sketch #129 and a card . . .

Okay . . . I'm a lucky girl!! Because I am on the Sketch Challenge DT, Pamela (the site's moderator/creator) sent each of the members a brand new stamp set from Kitchen Sink Stamps!! How cool is that?! {Please check out their website: http://www.kitchensinkstamps.com/ } I was sent a set called: Happy Birthday Cupcake!! And let me tell you . . . they were so much fun to play with!! I love how my card turned out and I know that my grandma will love it!!

This layout is another one for Scrapbook Challenges!! I love the cluster
in the lower left hand of the page!! I know that the blue flourishes leap right off the page,
but I just couldn't resist adding them!!

A few posts behind . . .

Okay . . . I'm behind . . . I'm sorry but I'm busy!! I've been busy doing lots of different things . . . school is busy, home is busy and in the crafty world . . . I've been doing these layouts:











They are more layouts for the Scrapbook Challenge Design Team!! I love working with sketches because the design is basically done!!

In other news . . . it's cold and I'm anxious for Spring!!

Happy Superbowl Sunday!!

Happy MLK Day . . .

I've spent the day scrapping, making some cards, and hanging out with the girls!! Sophia decided to make it snow corn chips in the living room today . . . basically that was my cue that she probably needed a nap . . . Emma is itching to get back on the computer to play some games!!

I used my new Slice to cut out several of the shapes! It was so much fun!!

Dec. Happenings . . .

So these are a few pictures from the following week . . .
Em lost her first tooth . . .

had to have a last minute class on proper tooth fairy duties!!

Then there was her concert . . . couldn't get any "great" pictures . . . ARGH!!

The infamous princess birthday cake . . . I can't believe Em is 5!!

Last, but not least, the birthday girl . . .

We had a great time . . . she got super presents . . . and the cake was even pretty good, too!!
