It’s good to Dream….

Author: July 12, 2009 0 Comments

Wow what happened??? Man, I get home and it's just go…go..go all week long. From Kindergarten Dr.s Appt., my poor baby had 3 shots : (, then he had a Dental, Birthday Party at Chuckies (couldn't miss that) oh and in between all of this I was catching up on house stuff. UGH! But sometimes being a Mom and a wife need to come first. I need a vacation from my vacation! LOL! 

BUT I did manage to get some stampin done!  I know when.  I also had to do some MAJOR re-organizing.  Which is always a work in progress. BUT I feel so much better.  Ok, so please accept my apologies while trying to balance all this and now on to the first card with my new goodies. Enjoy! Thanks for stopping by.

Ok, so here I am using all the new In-Color, Colors. I was so not sure about these colors this time around as I find them somewhat BOLD and out of my comfort zone. Not all but most. So for starters I came up  with this simple card. I have to say I'm really liking the New DSP too!

Recipe:

Stamp Set: Razzle Dazzle # 116714
Ink: Melon Mambo
Cardstock: Melon Mambo, Crushed Curry, Whisper White, DSP Razzleberry Lemonade.
Accessorie: Scallop Oval Punch, Scallop Edge Punch, Large Oval punch, White Gel pen and Crushed Curry 1/2 inch Polka Dot Grograin Ribbon.

Ok, so check back tomorrow for some more samples and the new Stampin' Up! Deal of the Week. I will not be MIA this week I promise. ; )

Happy Stampin',

My son’s 5th Birthday today and Birthday Card Share

Author: June 29, 2009 0 Comments

Hello all and Happy Monday!  Or is it?  We just now got into Pismo Beach, Ca. I LOVE it here.  Before I forgot there are 2 more days left to order from the Catalog until the New one which will start July 1st (Wednesday) Woo Hoo!  I can't wait.  SO many new goodies to play with.

DSC02282 Well it's my Son Marcus's 5th Birthday today and we'll be taking him to Chuckie Cheese's later tonight. That's where he wants to go.   He's the boss!

So for today's share I wanted to share the card that I made for his Birthday. Didn't come out the way I wanted it to BUT I had to improvise. I was trying to use Sticky Numbers for the 5…BUT it didn't place right on the cardstock and when I tried to slowly peel it off…let's just say it wasn't pretty. SO what I did was just placed it on this card and sponged around it.

I used the All in the Family Set by Stampin' Up!. I  used all the In-Colors too which will no longer be available after tomorrow. 

Enjoy and if you have any quesitons please let me know. Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stampin',
