YAY for the weekend! Hope your all having a great day! I just came home from getting my hair done and saw I had a small package from Inkadinkado! It was a little “Celebrate Spring” stamp! They chose one of my cards to be in their Projects Gallery on their website! Here is the card they picked! They also have my little chicks card on there too!! You can see these and all the others HERE on their website!

Hope you all have a great rest of the day! It’s our 6 yr. anniversary today so I think we’ll go to dinner! Take care!

Happy Friday!!! Hope you all had a great day! Got some much needed cleaning done! Boy how stamping get’s in the way of housework! LOL! Anyway, I just LOVE this new theme! Let me know what you think! There is a few differences…  The Contact Me and Publication Resume is at the top now AND on the side!! The only bummer is I don’t know how to change the font, and my “Fine Print” isn’t showing up, but I am working on it! In the meantime hope you enjoy! HUGS!

Good morning!!! I just HAD to tell you what came yesterday!! One of my few Prima orders I have been waiting for!! I now have some Sprites, Mini me’s (24 different colors), Baby Girl and Just Us paper and the Romantica and Lucid collections are back in stock!! YAY! If you haven’t seen these sprites they are just TOO CUTE!!! They are the scaled down version of the Quick Picks and just so sweet! Here’s a pic of some of the new goods!

 My Dad’s birthday is next Thursday so I made him this candle! I will make a matching card hopefully this weekend! Hope you all have a great day! HUGS!

How to make:

 I thought I could run all the trees  the Xyron. Well obviously you can, but they didn’t stick well to the candle, so then I had to go back with tacky glue! lol! I just cut out a million trees and layered them all around the candle. The bear is stamped in Chocolate Chip and adhered with Dimensionals. I hand sewed the linen thread then tackey glued that. The tag is just tied on to the candle wick!

 Happy Monday everyone!! I hope you all had a great weekend! We did, it was nice. Just ran some errands, made a few cards for a pubcall and had fun with the boys! I had to go get some adhesive at Joann’s yesterday, seems like almost all of their scrapbook/craft supplies were on sale! I got a Mickey Mouse album for Brett to put his “cards” in! Got a cute froggy umbrella for him too! It’s supposed to rain for the next few days, so he’s excited to use it!

 I won’t have time to make a card until later today, so I thought I’d share another Hampton Art Sample. That’s a picture of my brother in Paris! I’ve always loved that picture of him. Maybe one day I can go there myself! The paper I used is the gorgeous Cosmo Cricket Souvenir line. My friend Julia (Belle Papier) is having a great giveaway. Click here to enter! Thanks for looking!
