Good morning!

I have a fun project today....remember that dress I made last week

with the Samantha Walker Enchanted Garden Fabrics?

Well...she made paper to match! I am so excited!!!

It's called BLOSSOM

I ran the paper through my Cricut Imagine, then I grabbed the

Creative Imagination real wood paper and made this card. I love the

"gypsy" feel of the papers and how well it flows with the wood.

Even the little die cuts are from the Samantha Walker/

Creative Imaginations papers.

I am going to have alot of fun with this line!

Ok I am off to cook because the boys have baseball tonight and

they will need food when they get home! No nachos and fried food for

them before the game, only good stuff! :)

Have a wonderful day everyone,

and once again...THANK YOU for stopping by,

~One Crazy Monday!~

Good morning my friends.

Finally I was able to sit down and scrap last night after a crazy evening.

We had baseball practice and some crazy lady had a spatula to whack her kids.

I needed to scrap to de-stress!

I made this page with that "infamous" picture of hubby smoking.

I don't care, I love this picture! LOL

Almost everything was from the "This Is How We Roll"May Kit

from Tally Scrapper.

I love the sewing pattern paper flowers from Studio Calico and there

were SIX flowers in the kit!!!! :) Makes me happy.

I used my own alphabet and covered them with the dimensional pearl,

you cannot tell in the photo but it's pretty cool in person!

Anyways...it's a good memory and even if he quits we will have

this layout. :)

This week we have alot of goodness coming up including new

items from Imaginisce. Remember the i-rock? They came out with

brand new stones, so I will be making some projects with those!

Also I have a special project I just finished for the Cricut Circle...

I can't share it yet but hopefully soon!

Ok I am off to get busy...Happy Monday everyone!

Love and smooches to ya!

~Sunny Sunday w/Giveaways!~

Happy Sunday my friends! :)

I just wanted to mentions real quick that Clear Scraps is giving away

some acrylic AND a NEW D-STRESS TOOL!

So all my friends...HURRY OVER!!

http://clearscraps.typepad.com/my_weblog/2011/04/fun-friday-w-a-special-giveaway.html

I also wanted to share the full kit from Tally Scrapper today...

I finally had time to take a photo of the entire kit, of course it

was dark and cloudy LOL

It's actually a really BIG KIT and with the freebie extras I added the kit total in

reality is 37.00! BUT the price is only 29.99 for PRE-ORDER,

then it goes up on the 1st. There are only a few left so hurry!

I just shipped 17! :)

Due to storms yesterday all ball games were cancelled and

it's a good thing because I fought a migraine all day!

It was nice to have a lounge day, but as we lounged the trees kept

toppling over in our neighborhood!

I don't mind spring but these storms are really intense this year

and we have not even been hit as hard as AL and KY!

I am ready to get back to sunshine today and baseball practice and

dare I say possibly planting the garden??!

Let's hope! And I hope you all have an amazing day!

Thank YOU for taking the time to stop by today.

~Saturday FULL OF STAMPING FUN!~

Good morning my craft friends!!!

It is finally the weekend!!!!!!!

I had a surprise mailbox full of goodies Thursday/Friday.

On was full of vintage items and Spellbinders from BREE,

and the other package had this SUPER AWESOME STAMP!

How cool is this?? My friend KIM sent it and I just love her and I LOVE my stamp!

KIM Thank you so much!!!!!!! Now all you MO residents...we need to find

scrapbook stores to join up and bring me in to teach for a weekend! :)

That would be so much fun and I could meet all the amazing MO scrappers!

I am so going to use this stamp! I had to sit down right away and

make a card, and you know I don't stamp often...but lately

I find myself stamping more and more! I think if I had more Copics I

would definitely stamp more! Might have to try to find some on sale! :)

On this card I used: Glue Arts 3D Combo Pack

Pink Paislee Hometown Summer

Imaginisce I-rock & Hot Rocks

Ok on to farm humor...indulge me today LOL

Last night we bought a tiller...since I have been serious for a while now

about gardening with the boys, hubs decided it was time.

I mean hey...the chickens have been a huge success,

how hard can gardening be?? LOL

Here is a super short video of Justice trying the tiller out and daddy

yelling "Your going to run her over!!" bwhahahaha

Honestly how could I NOT share that??!

The new tiller...*YEA* obviously pre-tilling!

My son BEGGING me to get a picture of him helping dad

although no helping was happening....just posing...*sigh* LOL

I hope this photo does not offend anyone but I genuinely love this picture

of my husband. It is so real and its just him, ciggy hanging out of his mouth working.

I know smoking is bad, I get it, but this is my husband and how he is and

I love to document it all :)

And that's it for me today...unless you want me to post

30 more tiller pictures ROFL!

Have a beautiful day everyone!!!!!!!!!!!

Its; that time again and for today's project I made this

~More Little Cutie & A Crafty Dilemma~

Good morning everyone!

Did you check out the giveaway on Imaginisce yesterday?

They are having one again today!

http://www.imaginisceblog.com/

Here is what I made for today's post....a door hanger.

This Little Cutie Line is so fun, almost so much fun I want another baby...

ALMOST! LOL

I have to tell you about the mishap I had this week.

I received an email Friday asking me for a card for publication...

YEA!! Right??

Not quite....in fact not good because I gave the card away...and to top it

off I gave it to Andrew's BOSS! hehehe

So I went to Andrew and I said "I don't have the items to recreate it,

sorry honey you need to go talk to your boss. OR better yet I will! I mean

surely he will understand, I can even make him a replacement card".

So hubsters agrees and let's me go the entire weekend thinking he was

going to speak with his boss. (otherwise I would have hunted down the items).

Yesterday he calls and I asked him if he did it yet and he said

"Yes and he threw the card away, it's gone"

I found that quiet suspicious so I kept pressing.

Come to find out hubby is deathly afraid of me and even more afraid of his boss! LOL So he never asked and left me holding the bag.

Yes, I know it's my fault....but honestly I am so nice he could

have just said no on Friday and I would have started hunting.

Instead I was up at 12am trying to scrounge and make a fake version of the card so I can get it in for publication in time. *sigh*

I know only my crafty friends will understand LOL

~Great Day For A New Release! **GIVEAWAY**~

Happy Monday to all my crafty friends!!!!

This morning Imaginisce begins their new LITTLE CUTIE release week!

~Whoa, Is It Summer Already?? **WINNER**!~

Good morning!

No crafty project for me today because I was BAKING at the

ball field yesterday in a whopping 86 degrees!!!

I know this is a crafty blog but I cannot resist sharing a couple of shots

of my boys playing ball. *sorry excuse my proud momma moment*

We WON and it was a well played game!

I don't get to take many pictures because I am always focused on score

keeping, so my friend Adrienne took pics. I am so excited about it! :)

Anyways, it was a great day!

Now for the Imaginisce Animal Crackers winner!!

Happy Sunday everyone, I am off to the ball field again for some family time.

~You KNEW It Was Coming! hehe BIG GIVEAWAY TOO!~

Good morning!!! Ok admit it, you knew it was coming...

that's right a BASEBALL Layout! :)

I have not been snapping many pictures this year because I am

keeping score and pre-occupied. But I did manage to snap Justice going on

to the field the other day.

I used the Tally Scrapper May Kit (will be up for pre-order soon!)

I really wanted to make it sort of vintage with a POP.

Because baseball is so timeless and classic. The picture just melts my heart,

I nearly bawl every time I see it because he was so serious that day.

Oh I also used an sheet of 8.5X11 from the Kraft Outlet as the base.

It's a simple but heartfelt layout, I had alot of fun making.

Ok I am happy today because I have the new Cosmo Cricket UPCYCLE

paper crafting kit to GIVEAWAY!!!!
