Well it has been awhile. Summer was crazy. I just heard on the way home from taking my daughter to school this morning that after Labor Day summer is officially over. Where did it go? Having a Sr this year is going to keep me busy as well. I have been creating a little here and there mainly lots of recipes. I guess it is my new thing. 6x6 recipe cards. It is a lot of fun. I do want to start scrapbooking again as well. I have been trying to come up with something new. I guess I have a creative block. I go into the room and just sit there. I really need to get organized. I did get another bookshelf hoping to get more put up but I am here to say it is over half full with stamp sets. But I will be organized. I was reading this book the other day and it said if you do something everyday for 21 days it becomes a habit. So I need a lot of new habits. Just can't figure out what day to start. he he One is getting this darn blog up and something posted each day. I love reading others and seeing the new creations some come up with.
I will try to post some new stuff over the next few days. Hope everyone has a blessed day.

Good evening,
Just wanted to say hi to everyone who reads my blog. I have not forgotten to post just have been really busy. We are leaving really early in the morning for Chicago and will be gone till next Sunday. Brittany is attending the Chicago Human Rhythm Project Tap Festival for the week. I won't have a computer but will have email access. I will post pictures when I return. I am sure we will have tons.

Everyone have a Blessed Week.

July 7

Hope everyone had a nice 4th of July holiday. I got another card finished and wanted to post it before the evening is over. Not a real fancy one but colorful enough for a fun summer card.

I used Hot Pink and Bright Orange cardstock I got at Michaels.
SU Ink color Cool Carribean with the reitred Flip Flop all around wheel.
Sun Fun came from the SU Stamp Set On the Beach

Happy Memorial Day and Thank you to ALL our soldiers.


Well I haven't been doing much lately. A few Birthday cards here and there. But that is it. This weekend on top of getting ready for National Tap Dance Day I had to make graduation invitations for my daughters boyfriend. So I finished them last night and he takes them and hands them out today.
Out of all the stamps I own I didn't have a graduation stamp. Now I have 2.
I used
SU Really Red Paper
The Traffic Jam Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
SU Basic Black Ink

I think they turned out really cute.
