Handmade Gifts for Hayden & Hannah

Hey everybody! Well it has been a loonnnggg day for me! Chace is still playing All Star basketball and they have been doing tournaments every weekend. He had a game last night and they won and then they had to be at the gym (about 30 mins from where we live) at 7:30 am this morning and they won that game. We had to go back to our town and pick Autumn up at her friends house and then had to go back to the gym and they played again at 1:00 pm! They didn't win that game, we played the same team at last weekends tournament and lost to them then too. That team goes to Nationals every year and wins first place, except last year, they got 2nd place. So it is great practice for us to play against them! But they played a great game today! :)
Oh, and on yesterday's game, Chace's good friend Cameron, fell and landed on his mouth and BROKE his front tooth off! It looks BAD! He came with a mouth piece on for today's games and he will be visiting the dentist Monday! Poor thing! :( But he was a great sport about it! He looks like he's been playing hockey instead of basketball! :)
I started having a sore throat yesterday and it just got worse as the night went on! I didn't get much sleep because it was hurting so bad! I woke up this morning and my uvula was BIG (bigger than the normal big)! It did go down a lot after taking Advil, but my throat is still hurting! So I guess I got Strep from my kids from 2 weeks ago! So I'm praying I get in the Dr. Monday and get some meds! I can't stand a sore throat! :(

So on to the crafty stuff. Here are some gifts I made for a friend's sweet twin girls (Hayden & Hannah) for their B-Day's. We are the Warriors at school and my friend is the girls High School Basketball Coach. So they wear these outfits to the games to watch their Momma coach! :) I made them both a shirt and hair bow and I bought basketball type pants to go with it. Here are the little cards I made for them.Well the kids went to stay at their grandmas house with some of their cousins, so me and Chance are laying around watching TV and on our laptops. He went and picked me up cough drops and 3 different kinds of ice cream for my throat. :)

Have a Blessed night!

Happy Birthday Man Card

Hey everybody! I wanted to stop in and share a card that I made for my teenage nephew. I LOVE this Practicing Creativity set so much and I thought this simple design would be great for a teen! :) Very simple and I love the color combo.

Well that's it. I need to go to bed! :)

Have a Blessed night!

Wishing You A Happy Birthday Card

Good morning! Well I was up earlier than usual this morning. In Texas we have a state test called the TAKS test in school. It is different portions and today is the Writing part for Autumn and Chace. Chance is the breakfast cook around here, so the kids put their breakfast order in to him yesterday! :) So he was up fixing breakfast and I was up making them lunches, visiting, & encouraging them about the test. It was a good morning and I am praying that all the kids will have peace and knowledge when they do their tests. If you could, please pray for all the kids today too. Thanks!

I am still trying to get all those cards and projects posted. So today I thought I would share a card I made for a couple of Autumn's friends and our neighbor asked if I could make her granddaughter a Bday card too, so I went with the same design. I only took pics of one, because they were all the same. I love the color combo and the BIG rhinestone! :) Here is a close up.

I'm sure some of you have read that my husband and I are remodeling our master bedroom & laundry room? Well we had a laundry room & closet combo, since we have lived here. Well we decided to make a walk-in closet in our bedroom instead, because our room is huge! So he made a new closet and we added a hallway and split the old laundry room/closet up and made a laundry room by itself and a new little craft room for me! :) We are planning on building a new house in the near future, so we will eventually make the craft room into a bathroom for the master bedroom and sell the house. Our laundry room is almost completely finished (other than decor) & today is the day that I get to move all my craft stuff in my new craft room! :) I am SO excited! We have a few more things to finish this morning, but I hope to be moving stuff in later today. I think I may go look for some fabric today so I can make curtains! :)

Ok, well I guess I need to get off here and get started!

Have Blessed day!

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!
