Pink Lemonade

I hope you think it is worth the wait!

Whew what a week this has been! I can hardly believe it is Saturday and I haven't had time to upload a creation since TUESDAY. Grrr, but I have a surprise for you! I have created a fun tutorial on how to create polymer clay buttons. See the button on my card? I created it from clay by stamping the outer rim, trimming, shaping putting to holes in and baking, then antiquing it once it... Read more →

Be inspired today...Enjoy Life.

Well I woke today to the birds chirping and beautiful skies! I can't wait for it to be warm enough to fling open the windows and just revel in those fresh Spring morning breezes...but for now I will settle for a few more "Springish" projects, how about you? :) Today's colors are from the Moxie Fab Tuesday Trigger. The inspiration pieces are TO DIE FOR! Delish lovely color palette if I do say! The image... Read more →

March first...what a great date....

You know what March first means right??? We are only a few weeks from the first sweet day of Spring! I love Spring. It is filled with life and beauty, light and warmth...what's not to like???

You Go Girl!

I have a special someone (my mom, who is probably reading this but oh well!) who has been trying very faithfully to build regular exercise into her weekly routine. I think that is something we should ALL DO! This week marks her third week of heading out to the local YMCA and getting in a workout three times a week! GO MOM! So I thought she could use an "attaboy" card. :) Know if you... Read more →

I woke this morning...

And decided I would take the day off! :) Tee hee hee...I am not sure I can ever really "take the day off" while Adam is deployed but I have had a great time PRETENDING to have the day off. I stayed in bed until after seven...and then I let the dog out and snuggled back into bed and watched "Little House on the Prarie" (why is it that they don't make shows like that... Read more →

On the fourth day of Christmas...

We are a third of the way through with the Jacksonbelle's 12 Days of Christmas and today I have a little holiday gift bag to share with you! :) It is simple enough to create and large enough to hold a good batch of Christmas goodies! :) This bag is simply a version of the 2-4-6-8 box. Here I took a full sheet of 12x12 The Merry Days Of Christmas "Santa's Forest" paper and scored... Read more →

Tea for Two

Our sponsor last week at CPS was My Favorite Things. And since I was busy getting the Breast Cancer Awareness Blog Hop(e) card up, and my Unscripted Sketches cards up I didn't have time to get this one up!
