What The Cluck??!!

Good morning crafty friends,

I am laughing this morning because of this card- 

I HAD to make it, I have been saving it for a while now and

decided it was perfect for my gf's birthday. I mean she is turning the BIG 3-0!

Honestly I could not hep but make a FUNNY and fun card

and I knew I had this Kanban Crafts Wobbler (out of business now)

- and I could NOT resist.

Everything was sweet and nice except this! LOL

I printed and added the sentiments. 

 And of course I had to add the sentiment inside because my friend insisted

(ok she really just suggested it and I flew away with it).

 I added the BIG 3-0 to the eggs because let's face it. It's FRACKIN hilarious! 

Anyways it totally made her laugh so mission accomplished! LOL
I used the beautiful Ribbon's Unlimited ribbon to jazz it up and my Xyron to
adhere to pieces. All fun stuff! :)
The eggs are where I put her age...I am just happy she had a giggle! :)

Anyways Happy Tuesday- off to create!

~Sun Catcher Card~

Good morning my friends,

I have a new project today. I was honored to be asked

to work with the Connie Crystal company and they wanted me to

come up with ideas for incorporating crystals into scrapbooking...

HELLLOOOO! I love it!!! :)

What is cooler then to make a card that has a bonus gift in it?!

I thought it would be cool to make this card and include the

Star Chain Sun Catcher on the front, easily removable.

It's a card and gift in one, plus it looks so cool anyways.

So, what do you think? Cool idea? I think I am going to have

alot of fun with these crystals.

Oh I used my Kanban papers and toppers for this card.

Great combo....Happy Friday! :)

~Because You're Special Card~

Good morning my friends,

After an intense game on Tuesday and a not so nice

comment from another mom, I decided to let love prevail and

make some nice cards for my friends~

I grabbed my Kanban goodness and created this "Because You're Special" card.

I used some vintage lace from my stash, pink liquid pearls, and

some pink tulle too, perfect touch I think.

I felt so much better after sitting down to create, it's funny how

it relaxes me and helps me get back in that happy mode.

Oh and just to bug you one more time LOL

If you have not spread the word about my class please do! :)

I work hard on these classes making videos and all that good stuff.

It's a great way if you cannot be here in TN to take a class.

Especially if you are overseas! No muss no fuss, just a fun class.

http://www.mycreativeclassroom.com/course/info.php?id=534

We will be making 4 cards and a wall hanging, not bad huh? :)

Ok I will quit pestering y'all about it! LOL

Now I am off to sew today, I bought some fabric yesterday.

Excited to sew a little in between paper and glue.

Happy Thursday my friends~

~Hunger Games Project & GIVEAWAY!~

Good morning!

Guess who is back and up and almost 100%? LOL ME!

The boys are all on meds and I am actually alive and kicking....

anyways I spent yesterday making these earrings from PAPER

for the premiere of the Hunger Games movie.

I know they are now exactly like the Hunger Games photo but

I love what they represent. I love the Hunger Game series and its funny

because a mom at baseball was knee deep in the series as well.

I guess it's going to be huge!

So anyways I used the Kanban cardstock, 14KT gold embossing powder,

"Flight" Punch from Jenni Bowlin and my Silhouette to make the

circle and arrow for the bird to fit in.

Tomorrow I will share the SVG files but today I wanted to share

a giveaway of the Jenni Bowlin Limited Edition Butterfly punch!

I am sure my Fiskateer friends will love this!!!!!!

All you need to do is leave a comment and SHARE with your friends!

If we have enough comments I just might have another punch to giveaway! :)

Good stuff, also I will have an announcement tomorrow, plus a

special project so stay tuned! :)

Oh and real quick I had to share this sweet photo I snapped

at the ball park last night, sweet little Payton playing in the ball gear,

That's it for me today...OH wait, Hubs bought me 3 Easter eggers,

that means more blue and green eggs! :) WOOT! Excited~

Ok go comment and tell your friends!!!

Thanks for stopping by!!!

~Sick Day & Embossed Card- New Glasses!~

Good morning and Happy Saturday my friends!

I took the day off from everything yesterday, I had two very sick

boys at home plus I am still sick, so I headed to the Dr. for the boys.

But I did have this card I created this week using the wonderful KanBan

goodness and embossing powders. I also used a hummingbird KanBan stamp.

I just wanted to make a soft and pretty card, but for the life of me

I could not get that stamped Thank You to show up on my camera LOL

I also wanted to share Gage's new glasses with you, because

he was so happy to be able to see! He walked around saying

"Momma I can see that sign way over there!!" I never even realized

he had a vision problem, but it was so bad. I bet he is relieved.

The Dr. gave us plenty of medicine for my sick boys, from steroids

to antibiotics, it's going to be a long weekend BUT next week is

Spring Break so I am happy they will all be well then!! :)

Maybe I will squeeze in some creative time in between meals,

and being the ultimate mom taxi LOL

Happy Saturday everyone, thanks for coming by~

~NEW CHICKENS-Card & Tag Set~

Good morning my friends,

Before I share my crafts I had to share this cute little chick and nest

that Gage made for me and the new baby chicks we got! :)

Gage made this at school in art....

and last night we picked up 15 new chicks! :)

You know a few weeks ago we lost several chickens to a coyote,

so weird that this week one was hit on our road too. I really

think it was a coyote or fox after all.

Anyways, aren't they cute?? :)

While I was sick yesterday I decided to play with my nails,

I think I used every color in my box LOL But I love it for Easter. :)

This week has been full of creative time, I was able to create

2 card sets plus this card tag combo set.

This is all Kanban goodness, I love me some Kanban, it never gets old!

I cannot wait for the next batch of goodies!

Tuesday we had a great Bunco girl's night. I love the group we have now

such sweet girls who all get along and are so nice.

Wednesday I woke up sick and so did my poor Justice, so we stayed

home all day in bed, sipping tea and napping.

Today I hope to get back into creating.....

I also wanted to mention that Tally has a new "SMASH" kit

(embellishment kit) I know alot of the Tally girls asked me to create a

kit special for SMASH booking, so I did.

It's also fun for the card maker and scrapbooker.

Check it out, 5.00 shipping for these too.

SMASH KIT

I think that's it for me today, I am hoping to grab a friend

and go get lunch if anyone is up for it. :)

Happy Thursday everyone!!

~Hello Floral Card & Just For You~

Good morning my friends,

Quick post today, just the bare bones....the kids are headed home

after a 2 hour day. I think they make 2 hour days to mess with mom LOL

I was playing with my Kanban goodies again! I made this

Hello Floral Card using the beautiful metallic cardstock, and

the layering flowers. I also stuck a Buttons Galore flat back heart

button in the middle because it felt so right LOL

Oh the sentiment is Pink By Design, I am obsessed with stamping

lately, I need to find a manufacturer who wants me to stamp!

I also made this card using a Kanban card kit, and a butterfly punch.

I always love how sweet these cards end up, they are

pretty much completely fool proof.

Had a nice lunch with 4 friends yesterday and 2 sweet baby girls,

it was a good day. It's always nice to get out with the girls.

I have been in such a mood lately and these days really perk me up.

Thanks for popping by today, I love ya!

MUAH!♡♡♡♡♡♡

~Sympathy Card~

Good morning my friends,

This has been a very long month so far.

First the surgery for my son now a Sympathy Card for a friend.

I knew what I wanted to use. I remembered these soft beautiful

cards from Kanban and decided to later them up with some soft ribbon.

Don't you love how amazing these Kanban products look on a card?

Wouldn't you know I sent the meal over last night and forgot to sent the card!!

Oh and by the way, I made a crock pot potato soup Monday, if you want the

recipe I put it on my facebook page in my notes!

I was a baking fool Monday, I baked fresh bread and made a crock

pot of soup. Now I did not get my carrot cake done

because my shredder disappeared, but I hope to grab one today!

Have a beautiful Hump Day my friends~

~Card For A Special Friend~

Good morning my friends,

I have a card to share today and news about a blog hop tomorrow

that will have a special TWINERY prize! :)

First of all we have had a crazy week and a friend ended up in

the hospital, so I made this card for her.

Isn't it pretty? I just adore the Kanban cards...I love how easy

and how beautiful they are.

I just layered the pieces and added a smidge of vintage lace.

I an continually in love with Kanban!

Ok secondly you MUST stop by tomorrow because there will

be a special Twinery/Momenta blog hop and one of the

stops happens to be right here! You could win, so stop by!

Last but certainly not least, the last few months have been full of family

happenings from broken noses, to surgeries, family visits.

It has been non-stop since November.

Hopefully now that our last surgery is over things will slow down.

My boy came out of surgery Thursday with a smile.

Vanderbilt Children's Hospital is simply amazing.

He is up and walking again and happy as a clam, and oddly enough

no pain whatsoever, I attribute that to all the prayers.

Thank you each and every friend who sent me a note or

an encouraging word. I truly am blessed and needed them.

Now off to teach a class today, it has been a non stop

weekend so far and looks to be that way until next weekend LOL

Happy Sunday my friends.

~More Card Making Fun- Fleur-D-Lis- Football Fans!~

Good morning my friends,

What a wonderful weekend.

Now that all of my CHA projects are finished, I am back

to sharing the new releases and this one is PERFECT for football

and LSU fans...I wanted to make a football card but

who would I send it to?LOL So I made this....

This is a new Clearly Accent Embellishment design from Clear Scraps

(Fleur-D-Lis) paired with my favorite crafty company Kanban!

I love the sentiment, it's going straight to my girlyfriend! :)

I used alcohol ink on the clear accents, then I adhered them to

the GOLD mirror finish Kanban paper, then I added Stickles

all around the edges. It turned out just how I envisioned it!

Now I am off to take the little men to the barber today,

poor Justice is growing a shag LOL :)

Happy Monday my friends, I love ya!
