Cortland's Birthday Card

It's hard to believe that Cortland will be TEN years old this Sunday. Where has the time gone! He will be in Ft. Worth on Sunday morning. It's the first time he won't be home when he wakes up on his birthday. We always wake the kids up on their birthday with the happy birthday song. We both had reservations about him not being here for that. LOL So I made him this card to put in his overnight bag, so he can open it first thing on his Birthday. I'm going to put a pack of his favorite baseball cards inside. So hopefully that will get his day off to a good start!

Baseball sign

We are ready and excited to go to the Texas Ranger vs. Yankees game tomorrow in Arlington. Cortland wanted to go to a Yankee game for his birthday and it's finally here. We made this sign for him to hold up at the game. Hope it'll get him an autograph!!

Frankenstein card

We have had a few cool days here in Texas (in the low 90's). It has got me wishing Fall would hurry up and get here! It doesn't help that Hobby Lobby and Michaels have all their Fall and Halloween stuff out. So in the spirit of Fall/Halloween I made a Frankenstein card. This one is 5x7, larger than my normal. He is made from the Paper Doll dress up cart. I used a Peachy Keen stamp for his face. Have a frank-tastic day!

tote bags

Good evening. I got an order today for a tote bag, so I thought I would show it and also a Halloween treat bag that I made a while back. I'm trying to get things made and pictures of them so that I can put them up on my website that will be coming soon. I'm sooo nervous and excited at the same time. I'll keep you posted as to when it'll finally be up and running.

robotz card and bag

Happy Friday! We have a birthday party to go to tomorrow, so I whipped up this card and gift bag. Have a great weekend. The recipe for this card is: robotz cricut cart, My Pink Stamper stamp, cuttlebug "seeing spots".

Yesterday we found out that there's a possibility of us getting a new shi tzu puppy. We will find out this afternoon. Since I had puppies on the brain, I decided to make a puppy card this morning. The recipe for this card is as follows: Create a Critter cartridge, My Pink Stamper stamp and Bazzil papaer. The ink stitching was done with a jelly roll pen. Have a fantastic day!!!

first blog

This is my first go at blogging. Hopefully I'll get it all figured out. I wanted to post a couple of cards and the recipes for them. I am so excited to be able to share some projects and what's going on with the family. Have a great day!
