Hey there.

I haven't been on here in forever! I apologize. I am currently attending college fulll time to become a Nurse, and I am holding down a part time job as a lunch lady. I haven't had much time to be crafting or even breath. LOL. I am going to try to start updating this more often, once I get a few cards done!

Well first off, the twins are now a 17 months old. Almost 18 months. A year and a half! They have gotten too big. I can't beleive how fast they grow. They can walk, run, eat normal people food. Even form simple sentences. For instance, when Audrey gets in trouble she says 'MAMA A BABY', meaning take pity on her because she is a baby. Her grandmother always uses the excuse 'aww shes just a baby momma, she doesn't know any better'. So Audrey picked up on that. Mary will say 'The ball' or 'Ginger Ball' when she is playing with our dog. It is really neat how much they have grown up!

Recently I have been looking at "The Greeting Farm" stamps. They are just about the cutest things ever! I am hooked on the Anya stamps. I have been testing out some copic markers too of my moms. I am hoping to get a card done within the next few days so I can post it here. I still do stampin up, I use a lot of their cardstock and colors, I just really like the designs for Anya in "The Greeting Farm".

Well that is all for now. I have to get up early to feed swarms of hungry 1st and 2nd graders tomorrow! Take care everyone! :]

Happy Good Friday!

Oh man! It has been over a month since my last post, I'm slacking! I had went to a church event to help promote my buisness but not many people were there! I think it's because we never told everyone that you had to enter through the back. Oops! While I was there I saw a vendor who was selling nice baby products!

It's called "Sweetsation Therapy'. They sell all Organic baby products, and stuff for mommies too! They have everything from Morning sickness Lip balm (helps lessen morning sickness and motion sickness), Stretch Mark Cream for mommies, Baby Massage Oils, even shampoo that is supposed to help your baby's hair grow longer! Check 'em out! www.sweetsationtherapy.com

Audrey had gotten a bad ear infection, all three of us girls caught a terrible cold that plagued us for two weeks. High fevers and a cough, exhaustion was the word for the month!

I have been working on making a scrapbook for the girls. It's turning out pretty cute, I got two pages done... but I want to perfect it before I post it online! It just feels like it still needs something.

The girls keep me so busy, I can't believe how much I DIDN'T get done last month. Well here are some cards I managed to sneak in between their naps (and mine)!

I never finished this one... It needs something at the top but I can't figure out what! I had a scallop at the top and it looked like a little donut shop, but I'm not quite sure if I liked it!

Here is a wooden box I made at my moms last downline meeting!


I purchased the box and background paper from Michaels. The flowers, Ribbon and pens/green paper were also purchased from Michaels. This was more-so a crafty project rather than SU! based. The pearl was from the SU! Pretties Kit and the K was from the Serif Essentials Alphabet die cut. I used Pretty in Pink Card stock and ran it through the Xyron Sticker maker on both front and back, Putting Dazzling Diamonds SU! glitter on the front. SU! sanding block helps smooth the edges of the box where the card stock isn't exactly even with it.



Stamp Sets: A good Egg, Itty Bitty Backgrounds
Card stock: Gable Green, Whisper White, Ruby Red, and Only Orange
Stamp Pads: Basic Black, Gable Green, Chocolate Chip.
SU! Watercolor Markers and Blender Pen
Glitter: Dazzling Diamonds
SU! White Jumbo Eyelets
Punches: Large Oval, Scalloped oval, Scallop Edge
Daffodil was bought from Michaels Craft store.
Ribbon: White Taffeta

This one is from my twin daughters to their daddy. They colored the Easter eggs themselves and even used the Aquapen to blend it! (With my help and complete supervision of course... 7 month olds tend to chew on the watercolor pencils more than use them!)


Stamp Sets: A Good Egg, Itty Bitty Backgrounds
Cardstock: Pretty in Pink, Only Orange, Barely Banana, Sage Shadow, Whisper White, Bashful Blue, Lavender Lace
Stamp Pads: Basic Black, Pretty in Pink, Chocolate Chip, Only Orange (sponged)

I think it is missing some ribbon, no card is complete without it! I will have to add some if it wont look too busy! Till next time, blessings!
