First day of School

Shelby 8th Grade

Hunter 4th Grade

I can't believe how old the kids are getting.  It is just crazy! Unfortunately Hunter's first day was short lived...I picked him up at 1030 with another bought of stomach pains...we see the Dr at 2!

One more little pict.  Shelby took this one of herself the other day.  I LOVE IT!

Happy Birthday Card

This birthday card for a friend was a blast AND the colors are way outside of my norm! I love how it turned out! Lyrical Letters was used for the sentiment and several punches for the border.

Scrap Room Update

Yes, I know I am behind in my blog and I have done months worth of posting in just the last couple of days...but for those that didn't see my scrap room update elsewhere...here it is. My sweet DH painted (I helped, really I did) and we moved all the furniture around to make room for my NEW Scrap N cube table so now I have tons of room for friends, and family to join me!

My two desks with all my cubits!

Above the doorway entering my room

My DH's childhood dresser all painted and restored.  Makes a great cutting table, Cuttlebug station and tons of storage!

LO's I did for Megan

Ha!

Stay tuned.  I won't post them here until she gets her package (probably later today)

Come on guys...of course she has to see them first...

Megan's LO's

I was in a LO swap with Megan, a great friend from the Cricut Night Owls.  Here are the LO's that she created for me...

Halloween Princess.  WOW!!! I LOVE what she did with this one.  It perfectly captures Shelby at this age!

Snow Play! So many layers and such dimension.  This LO is an inspiration to me! She did an awesome job using numerous photos on one page! LOVE IT!!!

Getting back into it

I really need to get back to blogging...I just updated my background.  I would really like something fun but haven't found it yet. For now, I have moved from the pepto pink.  Today I will have several posts.  First are a couple of cards I recently did. I will also be publishing the current Close To My Heart special which can be found on My CTMH Site

Hunter's Birthday Card all papers & stickers are from CTMH's You Rock Collection

Shelby's Birthday card.  Cupcake image is from the CTMH Good Times stamp set, topped with Liquid Appliqued.  Background paper is DCWV layered on CTMH cardstock.

By the way...I had a wonderful day with my Mom and Shelby yesterday! Shelby got most of her school clothes, shocked the HELL out of me with some of her choices...like my old girl is back, AND she talked the whole way home. WAY different than the all dark or drab clothed, iPod wearing chicky that has been living in my house the last few years. She blinged it back up! And in PINK Too! I hope she had a good day.  I LOVE that girl!
