More Simple Cards








I love the simplicity of these cards and I loved making them, each took less than 5 minutes to make. How awesome is that? That will be what I demonstrate tomorrow at the Hobby Hoopla, I am so excited! Let me know what you all think! Oh I am so in love with the SU craft paper! It is awesome and so versatile! The dazzling diamonds is pretty awesome too, it's all in my hair and I have to go to work looking like this. =0) They are going to wonder about me.

Have a great night and Happy Stamping!

CASEd Crazy Stamp Girl


I love her tutorials and videos! She has what is called an Afternoon Quickie, satisfying your stamping urges in less than 10 minutes. It is awesome. Anyways, I watched her video today and loved it so much I CASED it. I am going to do my first Stampin UP demo at my sons school. They are having a Hobby Hoopla and this is what I am going to demo. I figure the heat and stick and dazzling diamonds will go over great! And the card was like super easy! I won't do a bow, I think I'm just going to tye it in a knot. I'm also in the process of making something to raffle off so people will leave me their information to follow up with them. I'll let you know how it goes, so wish me luck!~ Oh, let me know how you like my card please. Thanks Jen for your creativity and making your awesome videos and tutorials!~ Click here to check out her awesomeness!

Happy Stamping~

Check out this blog Chica and Jo!

I was at work last night just trying to stay awake and I read our local newspaper. I read an article about two local women who have a blog and are "upcycling", it is basically taking something that is used and done with and making another use for it by altering it. One of the ideas they have is turning an old phone book into a pen organizer. I had a ding ding ding moment, I am new to crafting and want to spend my money on crafts not the organization part of it. I desperately need to organize my things and this looks like a super easy and cheap way to do it!! Please check their blog out over here at Chica and Jo .They are in Lexington, KY and have uses for old bridesmaid dresses, turning an old leotard into a dance bag, oh and ladies using your Cricut to customize a lampshade!! Seriously please go check them out over on their blog as they are trying to make the world more green!

Happy Crafting!

My Coder Bug is 3!


I can hardly believe it but 3 years ago today I had my second son. I was so excited! His big brother Austin was 4 and he couldn't have been any happier either. His dad and I stared at how amazingly beautiful he was, oh and how much hair he had. He was perfect!

I cannot believe that in the Fall he will begin preschool. Wow! Where has the time gone? My children are growing up right in front of me. I am so very lucky and privileged to have them, I am a very blessed Mommy!

Happy Birthday baby! Mommy loves and adores you so very much!

Hugs and Birthday wishes Coder Buggy!

Tempting Turquoise Thank you


This is a thank you card that I made for a very special person. I really love the colors and how it turned out. I sure hope that they enjoy it! I am entering it into the Cute Card Thursday challenge. This is my first challenge that I am participating in, I'm so excited. I cannot believe this is my first challenge. Seriously Stephie. =0) I used the Eastern Blooms stamp set from Stampin UP, I seriously adore it. It is so versatile, I cannot wait to use it some more.

Oh yeah! Anyone know how to add my new watermark using GIMP (please simplify, I'm a computer idiot!) =0)

Happy Stamping!

Thank you Michelle, you are so talented!

Hugs!

A card for my son who is turning 3


I'm sharing even though I'm not too terribly happy with how it turned out. I have no childlike whimsical DP so I layered card stock. =0) I used lots of primary colors that a child would enjoy. He is turning 3 and I really hope he likes it! It is for my son Cody who loves Elmo, I actually bought this stamp for him months ago so he could stamp with Mommy when I did. He loves it! I may go to a hobby store tomorrow and pick up some really cute DP, if so I'll post another card. Anyways I hope you enjoy!

Happy Stamping!
