So many toys and not enough time!!

Well the new catalog is here and OMG so much new and neat stuff!!! I really like all the new colors and paper. I am still scanning and trying to figure how much I can afford... I have so many stamps now I'm scared that my family is gonna notice in a minute. Maybe I should try to organized so they won't notice.(yeah , right)

I have some copics now and am loving them. There is a blog that I found that really explains them and color theroy. Check out this site http://ilikemarkers.blogspot.com/ the lessons everyday are GREAT!!!

A great Birthday surprise

A few months ago I joined Jen Youngs' birthday RAK at http://www.expressivelyme.blogspot.com/ . She has a really neat blog and something new everyday. I got a neat card today from Deborah over at http://www.stampinonthemountain.blogspot.com/. She also added goodies which made it even more special. Thanks for the gifts Deborah! I have started experimenting with my bind -it- all and even got my son involved for about an hour. Anyway, here is some pictures of my surprise from deborah and the supply list books that I made. Maybe now I can start to organized my craft stuff.(NOT!)

It has been a while since my last post and here is an update. The family reunion went GREAT! We had a large turnout and had more time to talk to each other. I was so busy with details and family history sheets that I didn't get to take many pictures but my cousin is sending me some for the family tree and I will post them later.
I had a birthday yesterday and everything went great! I got some neat gadgets and a tape gun that I have wanted for a while(I guess you say oooooh k ) and money from my kids and grand kids. We finished that off with a swim at sisters. What a day! Thanks everyone.
I am getting ready to do fathers day cards the rest of the day(and wash clothes). There is a very good tutorial I saw at Dannie's Designs blog for a fathers day card that I am gonna make it is in the shape of a wallet which I think is cool. Check out this website for instructions. http://stampingaddict.blogspot.com/2008/04/mens-billfold.html
Anyway I'll take some pictures and try to post it tomorrow.

It's been a long time!!

It's been a long time since I have posted and I have a lot of things to add. I have been doing a lot of cards and even taught a class! In February I did little bags with tags for my neice Jailyn and my son Jordan's classmates. They really enjoyed them. We all got a kick ou tof eating the candy.

I have made a friend in Hawaii, Jen Young who has a great sight to look at and get a lot of ideas http://www.expressivelyme.blogspot.com/ I don't know how she keeps up with it every day but she really got it goin on. She has a RAK (random act of kindness)club that I do every month and a birthday RAK. It's really neat and you meet alot of different people in alot of places and you don't even have to leave home! The plus side is when you get a card back it has some "goodies" with it also. I have recieved clear stamps paper, embellsihments not to mentions some really nice cards! here is one that I got from Janet Sisk in Northville, MI. I got some neat surprises from her also. I will be posting the rest from time to time so let me say to all "Thank You"!
We had my grandson, William Anthony's (aka "tater")2nd birthday party and on Feb. 24th and it was a blast! He got so many gifts and had a ball.


Then his sister came on March 4, Jasmine Christine(aka lady bug).
She very laid back and really a good baby. Andbrother is a good helper(sometimes too good)

I'm Back!

This year has been really busy so far. I'm still trying to get the hang of setting up this blog page but it is working out slooowly! I got a set of cards done for my sister and I finally finished a wedding album for a friend of mine. The album was done with acrylic covers that you can decorate any way you want. I used her wedding colors and some of the paper from her pages. When you stamp on acrylic the best ink to use is staz-on that way you know it will dry. I set up her first page with the wedding date and her new name so it would show through the cover .

She was really happy with my little project. Congrats Tina!

Happy New Year to all

Just wanted to say Happy New Year to all!!! Everyone fell asleep on me .
