Miss You card

Hey everybody! I miss you! :) It's been awhile since I posted last. So I thought I would post a Miss You card, that I made months back. I really love this stamp! Can you tell?! :) Life has been busy and is getting busier and busier! The kids have LOTS of sports going on! They seem to enjoy every sport, so they do all of them and keeps us busy too! But we enjoy it! :)

I haven't submitted to any magazines in MONTHS! But the PC call for sketches, just looked too fun to pass up! My craft stuff is still a mess, but I still want to try and create and submit something! I hope to be in my craft room by tonight and I can't WAIT! :) So I better go and start creating! :)
Have a Blessed day!

Happy Valentine's Day & Lawnscaping Challenge #3

Hey everybody! Happy Valentine's Day! Yes, I know that it is officially the 15th, but I had good intentions to post all day, but never had time. My kids are on their Winter break for the week and we have a busy week planned!

I wanted to share these cute little cherry pie's in a jar that I made for the family today. I got the idea from a crafter on facebook and she posted this link. I thought that they were perfect for Valentine's Day and perfect for the Lawnscaping Challenge! Where it's all about Love! :)
I don't usually like to bake, but I loved making these and they are SO good! They were a big hit with the family and look at those cute hearts! :) The hearts fell a little bit after baking.
And these little Lawn Fawn stamps were perfect for this project! :)
And more pics, because they are so darn cute! :)
I also wanted to share the cards I made for Chance and the kids last night. We are still in the middle of remodeling and I had to stand at my craft table FULL of stuff and make their cards! :)
Please someone tell me that you have heard the saying Olive Juice, and it sounds like "I Love You" if you just move your mouth to the words, but don't say them?! Me and a friend of mine use to do that in grade school. :) I was excited when I found the stamp at michael's! I thought it was a perfect card for Chance! :)
And this card fits the Lawnscaping Challenge too. This card is from inspiration from a Bealls gift card, that me and Autumn saw last weekend while shopping! :)
And I used more Lawn Fawn Stamps for the inside of the card. (The card is white, but it looks pink.)And here is Chace's...a little monster! :)

Well it's past my bedtime! Have a Blessed night! :)

Thank You cards

Hey! I have another card to share today! I made these for a couple of friends of mine who helped out with the football boys Homecoming float this year. Autumn was cheering at her first game of the season and it was away, so my sweet friends took care of getting the float together for us, so we could go watch Autumn.
I used some of my Wplus9 Design Studio stamps. Magical Moments & Design Basics: Backgrounds II

Both very similar, just different colors.We are still working on our new laundry room, I can't wait until it's done! :)

Have a Blessed day!

Yes...Thanksgiving in February!

Hey everybody! Sharing more of my cards from the past! And yes...these are from Thanksgiving! :) I sent these out to my family, because we weren't going to be together on that day! These are some more stamps that I won! Woo Hoo! I love free stuff! :)

I love the texture of these stamps, they look so real! I made this one for my Mee Mee. She LOVE flowers, so I thought I would make her some Fall looking flowers! :)

Keeping it short and sweet! :)

Have a Blessed day!

Designer Blog Roll & a card

How cool is this?! I'm on the Designer Blog Roll on Paper Crafts blog! :) What an honor! Thanks Paper Crafts!

Well I am going to attempt to start showing all those cards and projects that I made and never had time to post! Here's the first one.
I love these Hero Arts stamps! I won them not too long ago and let me just say...they are so fun to color! I didn't put a sentiment on it, I figured I could put one on it before I sent it to someone. I made the card around Thanksgiving, so I guess that is the reason for the "Fall" colors, but really I wear these colors ALL the time! :)
And here is a close-up of some of the flowers popped up!Have a Blessed day!

The last of the Card Drive cards

Hey everybody! I am still so excited that the kids at the hospital will be getting all those fun cards on Valentine's Day! Thank ya'll so much for sending the cards and all the sponsors, and my sweet friend Kelley for her help, and my sweet friend Christina for the new Vanderbilt logo! Ya'll are great! :)

Well I wanted to share the last of the Card Drive cards. I had SO much fun making all of these cards! I want to keep making Valentine cards, but we are still in the middle of remodeling our house and now I need to pack up my craft stuff, because it is now in the way and it is has been moved around EVERYWHERE! I need to make some for my family and for Autumn's friends at school and then I will have to pack it up for a little bit. :( But I will have a new craft area and I am VERY excited about that! :)

Here are the cards. If you have any questions about the stamps I used, just let me know! :)

Have a Blessed night!
