Don't you just love Mondays!!

Good morning to you from Spring Break Monday and Grandma's house!  We've already enjoyed pizza and Grandma's cupcakes last night.  I hope no one will judge me for having one of  Grammie's fabulous cupcakes for breakfast.  While my morning started off waaaaayyyy earlier than I wanted or expected it is a glorious warm morning.  I'm so ready for constant warm weather.

Well on to my cards  this morning.  This is another set that I made for my friend. 

I love the paper on the top one and I can't even remember where it came from.  Its double sided so I'm guessing it came from a K & Company stack.  I believe the sentiment came from PTI's Scattered Showers set.  Its a simple layout but I love it.

I hope that everyone has a fantastic day and a fabulous week!!

Simple love you.

Here it Thursday and tons of stuff to do before Saturday and I'm playing on the computer.  I need to make a quick trip to the gorcery store, vacuum and mop, clean off my dining room table and finish hanging pictures on my living room walls.  Not to mention three birthday cards to make and three presents to buy.

 

I'm hoping that my replacement Gypsy will be here soon.  If and when I finially get it in my hands I'll have to give you the whole ugly story behind why I need a replacment.

I've got a cute, quick little card for you today.  I used a peice of my K&Co valentine stack and added some stickles to the flowers.  Strung some buttons on cute bakers twine and tied that into a horrible bow (something I need to work on.)  Added a "I love you" sentiment by Technique Tueday onto a pre-cut tag by Martha Stewart which I rolled a little to give it some height.  I think this one might be heading to Korea in a care package for my Guy.  I don't tend to give him flowery, girly cards but sometimes I run out of ideas for masculine love cards.

Have a fabulous Thursday, I'd better get busy with my To-Do list.

Valentine Cards

I've put off blogging a little longer than I had origanally planned. Anthony ended up getting to stay two days longer with us because of the ice storm that hit us last week. He did finally make it safe and sound in Korea after several flights and long layovers. So we are on day 5 without our guy and I have to say that it is going way smoother than I had imagined. I have some fabulous friends and neighbors who are determined not to let me get bored and broody. Skype has to be the most wonderful invention ever with Yahoo Messanger for Android running a close second.

So on to my reason for the post Rhalynn's class Valentines.  I used one (of many) new Valentine stacks that I've bought this year.   This one is from Kand Company.  I did make 5 sets of these valentines with a couple in another color combo, I'll try to to get a picture of those tomorrow.  The images are from Pink cat studio, I bought them at my LSS after Valentines Day a couple of years ago.  I'll be linking this to Simon Says Stamp's Love is in the Air challenge this week,

I wanted to end this post with a picture I took this morning.  They are constantly fighting for space on this cushion, Joey (dog) usually wins.  I think its so cute because they are both sound asleep and snoring.

Have a happy day!!

I thought some of you might get a laugh out of my Hubby's antics on his new blog, Tony In Korea.  Be prepared for a potty mouth, heavy sarcasm, unfinished thoughts and lots of rambling.

Glee tonight and a birthday card!!!

I'm so excited that Glee returns tonight!  I've already informed my Hubby that I claim the TV at 9:28pm.  My Hubby makes fun of me for liking Glee so much.  He doesn't understand what draws me to a show about high schoolers.  I have a hard time explaining it to him.  You either get it or you don't.  If you watch Glee leave me a comment and let me know what draws you to it.  I'd love to hear from other Gleeks!!

So unless I get some crafty things done this afternoon or tomorrow morning I won't have anything to post tomorrow.  I still have to fold and put away all the laundry that I did yesterday.  I think it breeds in the dirty laundry basket.

On to the card.  I made this card for one of Rhaynn's friends who's party is this weekend.  Of course the party is on the same day as our soccer game so we aren't sure if she'll make it.  The image is a digi from Sassy Cheryl's that I got from their PCP page.  The sentiment is from a K&Co set that I got ages ago at M's on clearence and it is stamped in Memento Summer Sky.  I cute the image and the sentiment out with my Nestabilities Label 4.  I so love this one, okay I love them all.!  All the paper is from the DCWV Blossoms and Butterflies stack.  I used the Papertake Weekly sketch from last week.

I hope that everyone has a fab Tuesday.  And Happy Glee watching Gleeks!!

A card, a baby tooth and a just because!

Silly title I know.  I often have lots of trouble with titles.

Todays card is a just because card that I had to do so I could color these awesome images.  The images are from a fantastic new digi shop Amber Inks (link in my side bar also).  The set has 8 images and 1 sentiment.  And guess what?  It was free.   Not only that Amber has four other girly sets that are FREE too!!!  Can you believe that?  She just recently added some cute bunnies to her digis and the prices are awesome..  I can't wait to see what else she comes up with!  The paper is from my K&Co Wild Saffron Stack.  The images were cut using my Nestabilities Large Ovals.  I also followed last weeks OCC sketch.

 

I'm having on of those "my babies are growing to fast" Mom days.  My sweet girl Rhalynn lost her first baby tooth this morning.  She was so excited that it finally fell out.  Its been wiggly for about two weeks.  My blue eyed beauty is so proud to show off her missing tooth.

And of course I can't leave out my other blue eyed girl.  I think Clara's finally master this potty thing!

Well thats all I've got for today.  I'll be heading to Columbus tomorrow to the Memories Scrapbooking Expo!!  I'm so excited!  I hope that everyone has a wonderful weekend!  I'm off to put up the mountain of laundry.
