Middle Age!!

Its official I am middle age. I am 40 today. I feel so sad about it, especially because my parents aren't here to celebrate it with me. I still feel like I am 20. Its time to go for dermabrasion and a facial!! I am going to spoil myself tomorrow and get a pedicure and manicure.

Of course today had to be Good Friday, so the kids are home! UGH I cant catch a break. Thats Life! LOL

Hope everyone has a good Easter.

New Cards for April

I made these cards for some of my family members. I made them last week but I didnt want them too see them. So I hope they received them in the mail by now!

This Stamp set if from StampingBella, its called cruisabella
Isnt she just so Lovely? I used my copics in a variety of red shades, basic brown ribbon from Michaels, Designer Paper from K&CO, and Prisma Flowers
I really enjoyed making this card, I am in the process of buying a new bella each month. One day I will have them all (but then there will be more) So this cycle will never end! LOL I wrote in "Enjoy your Day" with a Journal Pen.

This next card was made with the new Stampin' Up! new set from the mini catalog called And Many More. . I used my new Martha Stewarts Zig Zag punch for the embossed white area. Of course I embossed with Swiss Dots. Can you tell I love my cuttlebug? I used the nesties again. I found that adorable designer paper at Hobby Lobby. The golfer was colored in with my copics. I edged the square with one of my yellow copics. Just rubbed it in with my fingers.

This final card was made for my Sister in Law. She just got engaged to a great guy!! CONGRATS AGAIN SARAH!!

This envelope was made with a some fab paper I had in my stash, I have no idea who makes it! But I got lucky! The card was made with a stamp I found at Michaels. I got the idea of adding pom pom fabric (ribbon) to my card from Papertreyink.com's Blog. I thought it was so great! Now I need to go to Walmart and find more pom pom ribbons!!

The paper was from K&CO again, yes I own almost every paper pack from K&CO. I love it!!

The stamped image was distressed with Tim Holtz's Distress Inks. And of course I used my cuttlebug with embossing folders and nesties :)

the only thing I had trouble with is that pom pom ribbon was hard to cut! I wish I added an embellishement on each end to cover my bad cutting job :( I hope she doesnt notice!

Have a great day!

I will be posting and visiting blogs soon. Hope everyone is doing well.

Tim Holtz Yummy Stamps!

Went into Mikes the other day I noticed they are selling Tim Holtz Stamps, I dont know the name of this I have to look it up but I just love it. His stamps are clear and soo thick! I cant believe I was able to find it at Mikes of all places!

I also plurged on new Paper Trey Ink Cardstock. This green is called Ripe Avocado. So yummy!! That patterned paper is from a collection called Zen Garden got last year at Mikes for under 5 dollars for a big pack, I love after Christmas sales.

I made this card very simple and very modern, No coloring or using my dies or cricut, I was the easiest card I made in a while.

SNOW ? YESSSSSSS

Can you believe that Tennessee was hit with 6 inches of snow? It happened yesterday. We woke up to the windows covered with white stuff. The kids were shocked! My Daughter especially was thrilled, she finally was able to make snow angels!










You can see here my son wanted nothing to do with it!! He couldn't wait to go inside.
