~Happy Hump Day my crafty friends....~

Good morning my crafty-licious friends!

Since I did that Layout for SFTIO I have become
OBSESSED with giant photographs....
I wanted to do another layout with my eyes
without the pain and anger, so I made this one lastnight.

*BIG CONTEST ALERT*
Want to win a FLIP Video Camera??
http://helmarusa.typepad.com/blog/2010/06/helmar-flips-video.html
Helmar is having a HUGE contest! WOOHOO
wish I could enter!

Another Helmar page, I used my 450 and Adhesive runner

partnered with Scrap-tastic supplies!

Loving all the lush goodies.

OK indulge this Pink one with a few more
"vacation" pictures...
You know you are the MOM of BOYS when people
come up to you and say "Are those your boys?"
And you think...OMG what in the heck are they doing now!
Well this happens to me frequently with my oldest
I have had more mothers approach me saying that
then with any other boy so far.
We were on a small train (long ride but small train)
ride and a woman comes up to me not 5 minutes after I take
this shot from the from the back of the train and
she says..."You have those 3 boys? is that older
one yours?" I hung my head and said "yes"
She said..."I am watching him hang himself off the train and grab
things from the trees and rocks, he almost fell out too"
Lorday...*HMPH* I got nothing else to say about it
except that boy jumped 10 feet when I walked up to him
and he TRIED to tell me he had no idea it was wrong
but if your not doing anything wrong, you don't jump
10 feet and hit your head when momma walks in!
Here we are on the bus to the train
(hot as heck too!)
He insisted he get a picture with momma too!
The boys took their own...they are growing up fast!

Alrighty then, I was going to take pictures of a prize today
but it is thundering and lightning, so I am going to wait until
tomorrow. Don't forget the Dirty Scraps challenge will
be up tomorrow too!
NEW SPONSOR and a prize there!

Thanks for coming by to say hey!

~Funky Fun Card Making Tuesday w/ Paris Hilton Creativity Collection~

Good morning my beautiful crafty friends!

I am so excited because I finally got my hands on some of that

Paris Creativity paper and bling!

I wanted to get the paper and the albums for a long time now,

when they put them up for 50% off, I was so excited!

I decided to break into the packs and make cards first thing.

These are for a couple of my girlfriends who just made a DT!

I wanted to tell them they are superstars! hehehe

So fun and funky fresh!

After seeing the kit in person, I will definitely be

playing some more with the papers and bling!This is another card I made for another friend who made a DT.

She is in her late 20's and this will tickle her pink! :)

I used my Helmar Adhesive Runner for making the cards.
Perfect for a quick permanent stick!

Now remember once again LOL
*DISCLAIMER* I am not a card maker! LOL

Ok on to life on the country road.
I had several Facebook requests to see the chickens,
I don't really know why except to watch them get fat! LOL
They are finally accepting the fact I am the food provider.
They have stopped freaking out when I come out in the morning,
now they just look at me like I am crazy and come running for food.
They LOVE baked potato leftovers!! LOL
The gren and orange chickens are nearly all white now,
and they are BOTH ROOSTERS! LOL
Slowly but surely we are weeding out the roosters and let me tell you
when they said 25% will be roosters, they lied!
I don't know what we are going to do with all these dang roosters!

We also have decided to order 2 hens that lay rare blue eggs.

Oh and a quick story....
Last night hubby drive in and came RUNNING into the house, he
yelled "Brad get out here!" I headed out with Brad and the chickens
were in my sunflower patch!!! LOL
Gage had apparently went into the coop and left the gate open,
so they were having a free for all pecking-fest.

We rounded them back up, thank heavens they always stay close.
It was funny and cute, I wish I had thought to snag my camera.

That's all for me today, I need to work on some dresses,
and a video I am hoping!
Oh and gathering up the BIG BOX of goodies for photographing.
I will give you a little preview of the giveaway...

All this card stock is Core'Dinations! You know how much they rock!

Glue, INK, Paper, Chipboard, TOOLS, and more!!!! I am trying
to figure out how much I can jam pack into a flat rate box!!!

~Have a great day~
~Thanks for stopping by!~
