~Clearscraps BLOG HOP & gifts for Mothers Day~

Good morning all you crafty people!
I am excited about this morning because it is my first Clearscraps
blog hop *see official information below*

I wanted to make a pretty Mother's Day gift with my clear acrylic,
so I decided to make a Checkbook Cover! How fun is this?
Acrylic is perfect for this gift because it has the strength and durability
I wanted to cover the checkbook and hold stamps.
I used a Sizzix Die (I won on a blog hop last month!)
Graphic 45 papers, with some brads, and rub-ons.
I am going to add a magnetic latch tomorrow, alas...I ran out of time
my son had a baseball game so I had to shoot a picture and head out.
Behind the cover is another piece of acrylic for even better cover.
I think you could put paper inside and make a notepad
if you wanted or put a pocket calendar in there!

OK here is the official information...
PRIZES at the end!! So comment all over my friends!

Welcome to the Clear Scraps blog hop!
We're so excited you joined us this weekend to help us celebrate all our Moms and the women who play a mothering role in our lives.

Oh and for anyone wondering about the chickens...
Oh my oh my LOL
I wanted to finish a little more of the story of the crazy chicken lady
I meant to clarify, when I said she spoke to the chickens about leaving
and coming to our house, I meant she had a lengthy "discussion" with
every chick about IF they wanted to leave or stay,
you know those chickens were just thinking...
"LADY, just kill me and get it over with, I can't handle one
more second in this garbage pile! Just hand me to the crazy pink haired lady
she cannot be worse than this!"
hahahaha

that's it for me today! GO BLOG HOPPING!
Tell your friends!!!
I have some stamps to giveaway tomorrow
from the Timeless Daydreams post last week.,
I apologize for the delay, I am all out of whack
from the crazy life with the weather and all.

~Have a GREAT Friday~
~Thank you for stopping by and saying hi~
