New LO's and cards

Here are several LO's and cards that I did this weekend. I hope you enjoy and maybe even get a bit inpsired!

Columbine Memorial LO's. The only really special thing about these (other than what it is, and where it's at) are the prima flowers that I used glimmer mist on. Really liked that touch. Otherwise I kept these pages about the photos.

Surprise for Mom!

Pam in Colorado from the Night Owls on the Cricut MB had the traveling RAK and she wanted to give it to my Mom, but surprise her by doing it in person. Sooo she and I set up a meeting at Memories 4 Life on Saturday. Mom was so surprised that we did this! I am so happy that we pulled it off! Pam is super sweet and I am so glad that we got to meet!

My Birthday

Well I was treated pretty special for my birthday. First Shawn and the kids got me the Jawbone (it's a bluetooth for my phone). I am in LOVE with it! I also love that they surprised me! Shelby made me this card. Which by itself is incredible since papercrafting is so not cool!

Jennifer, gave me the spider web Cuttlebug folder and she made this cool little pouch to put it in!

Here is the card Jen made too. Love her crafting style!

Kathy made me this wonderful card. She always has some of the cleanest, stamped cards. I love her style too! She also got me a Subway gift card, some buttermints and Lindor truffles...yum!

My Mom made me this card...and she gave me the butterfly stamp she made it with...love this stamp, and Mom I always love your creations. You really do not give yourself enough credit! Such style.

Mom also promised me the Drippy Goo punch! I hope she can find it!
My Night Owl girlies and FB friends were also full of Happy Birthday Wishes!

Thank you to all my wonderful friends and family for making my birthday so special! I love you all!

Ramblings and a few new items

This weekend Shelby, Shawn and I attended CPO Project 2000 in Colorado Springs. Once again Project was fun,sad,inspiring,busy, hectic, and wonderful! This Project was ecpecially cool since we got to share it with Shelby and there were several work friends there as well as my brother Aaron. We met (or re-met) numerous correctional professionals from all over the country and had a blast! This year we helped the organizationa and Robert Wright with various details. Helping at the BBQ was the best and we had so much fun! I will be posting some picts in the coming days...so watch out! Sadly, Hunter couldn't join us but he was so happy with the goodies we brought home for him!

Kip has left our work unit :( and this is his going away card. The sentiment fits him perfectly! LOL!


Another alcohol inked sympathy cards...simple with a stamped image.

A sympathy card for a dear friend. The background is alcohol inked and then a stamped image and sentiment (which BTW, is not crooked in real life) silly picture!

Charisa's wedding shower card made with HA, heat embossing, stamping and Dazzling Diamonds.

Dad's Birthday Card

Here is the birthday card I made for my Dad. Quite a simple card, just a little punching and inking and finished off with a bit of twine...but oh so perfect for him! Dude, old guys do rule! LOL! Love you!
