Hey there everyone! How are you? Just a quick post tonight, because it has been a long day!! A VERY long day at that, I must say! Kyah and I had Girl Scouts tonight, need I say more!! Ok, so, onto my card. I hope you like it! I thought it appropriate to post, since I am GRATEFUL to all of you for visiting with me!! As you can see, my counter is closing in on 5,000 hits! I can't believe it, already!! I feel more blog candy coming on, don't you? Haha! I was trying to find an extra small saying to fit in that SU hardware, when there it was. I thought this beautiful script word was fitting for this image. This image, by the way, that came from SCRAMPIN' MAMA, Sarah! She's awesome! I didn't have any Whipper Snapper stamps or images, so she sent this to me. Wasn't that great of her to swap images with me? Now I think I NEED some Whipper Snapper stamps!! Haha!! NEED! Yeah, right!! Like I NEED more stamps! Hehe! It's the WANT factor! Now, isn't it!! Oh, and check the paper out!! I am likin' the paper a whole lot. It's K & Company and I found it at Mike's with the scrapbooking stuff. It wasn't with the other paper pads and they had several designs to choose from. What do you think? It came in a 12x12 and a 4.75x6.75, which is perfect for my card making. Anyway, I just wanted to share with you, so thanks for stopping by. I am grateful for you choosing to spend some time here! Have a great night and see you all later. Until next time..............ENJOY LIFE!!

Bella & The Kitchen Sink!!!
Ok, sorry, I was just a tad excited!! Hehe! So, how is everyone?? Thanks for stopping by today, I appreciate tremendously!! I also am VERY excited about my card here! What do you think? I really was tryin' to go outside the box with this one. Maybe it's not out of all of your boxes, but, it was for me! So, you can understand how proud I am of this one!! I took my close to cocoa SU CS and mounted a piece of Basic Grey ( my FAV, I swear) DP. I call it BG paper, but, I have seen some of you call it DP. We will go with DP today. I wanted to turn up the edge and forgot that this paper doesn't have anything on the back. Well, I made my own on the back! I sponged some SU Basic Brown on there and I like it!! Then I pieced another snippet of Basic Grey DP, from the same Cupcake 6x6 pad. This is the same pad I had from LIMELIGHT PAPERCRAFTS! I have been using it sparingly! LOL! Then I added the Book Sentiment from Stamping Bella and sponged that with the SU Brocade Blue. It has to match you know, or at least coordinate! Haha! Did I mention that I got this image in a swap?? This one came from Scrampin Mama, I am so thankful for this swap;because I have the sentiment and not the bella. Thanks much Sarah, I love this image!! I like to give books as gifts a lot, so this image will definitely be used!! Speaking of image swaps, don't forget to email me if your interested in swapping!! I will email you my list!! I hope you love this card as much as I do.
Ok, I had to post this card too! I don't know if any of you remember my chick card, a while back, but I really liked that Kitchen Sink set a bunch! I liked it so much and it was so reasonable, not to mention way cute, that I had to get the Squirrel set!! It took me a bit to get the hang of this 3 step stamping, it can really be tricky! I know these clear stamps are supposed to make it easier to see, but not me!!! It kinda confused the issue at times! Anyway, I did finally get it to work and, of course, I LOVE this card!! I won't go into detail, since my last couple posts have been lengthy and you all were great enough to read them in their entirety!!! You guys are the BEST!! Let me know what you think on these 2! I love to hear your feed back!! Oh, and don't forget the festivities at LIMELIGHT PAPERCRAFTS, this coming October 4th. If you scroll down, I have the deets listed below!! It was nice sharing with all of you and I'll see you real soon!! Until then....................ENJOY LIFE!!!

FINALLY! A Card For my Happy Hopper! & The Purposed Image Swap Info!!
Happy Saturday everyone!! How are you and your families today?? It is majorly YUCKY here!! Rain, rain, rain, and more rain!! Haha! Oh well, I guess someone would say we need it, right?? First topic of discussion is the purposed image swap! After compiling my list, I find that it probably would be TOO long to post here. So, I would love for ANY of you to contact me for my list!! If you are interested in joining the swapping fun, just email me and put "image swap" in the description line. I can't wait to get started, because I love sharing my collection and playing with new images! Did I say collection?? I meant OBSESSION!! LOL! This way you get to see if you like something enough to buy it, right? You also get to experiment with something new! Sound like fun? Well, my email is listed on my sidebar, under contact me. I hope to hear from you!! My list is ready and waiting to be shared, Hehe!! Let the swapping begin!!
Ok? Next! What do you think of my card? I couldn't wait to use this image I colored!! I was trying to find just the right BG/DP to go with the COOL red!! However, I just felt that , everything I found, took away from the cool shoes and handbag! So, I used my CB embossing folder, for something more subtle! The Prima I found at Mike's and it just kinda jumped out at me! I bought the whole stinkin container, just for that flower! Haha! Not like I won't use the rest of them. Didn't matter anyway, since I was beyond excited about my find!! It was perfect!!I also was able to send some of the flowers along with the Cool Cat card I made, on a previous post, to the same great girl!! She should have received it by now, but, just in case, we will refer to her as the great girl! Hehe! I can't wait for her to get it!! I think she will be surprised and I LOVE surprising people!! WAY FUN!!
So, are you all having a great weekend? Hope so! I couldn't wait to share the above card with you and now, I am done! I will check in with you all tomorrow! I am working on a Bella image that I received in a swap! I am really psyched about it so far, we'll see!
Sorry, I had to go change a diaper, not that you would have known! Lol! Now I have to change the other one! So, it is bye for now! Thank you sooo much for stopping by! I appreciate your visits! Until next time....................ENJOY LIFE!!

A Card for BELLA & A Box for KYAH
Hi all, how are you? Ok, so here's the thing. This post is going to be a bit involved, for I have a little story to tell. So, sit back and relax! Haha! First I will tell you that this Bella card was for my Sistah Bella Friend, who is not feeling so hot!! I was fairly pleased with how it turned out, but, what made it truly exciting? The fact that I did it today and sent it out today!! Now, that's amazing! LOL! I hope she likes it; she likes pink and brown. Alrighty, on to the story. I have been contemplating, for some time now, how to create something for my DD to put her school folder in. She has a communication folder that is to go back and forth, to school, with her every day. It is to be her responsiblity to make sure it gets from point A to point B. I had wanted to make her something cool to help her with this. You know, if it's cool, she'll want to take care of the whole thing. Get it? Alright. Up until today, I hadn't really come up with anything good; I wanted to take something and alter it somehow. I looked at a cereal box, no, not wide enough. I thought about putting 2 boxes together, no, may not hold up. I even had myself convinced I would have to use some type of plastic container, such as rubbermaid or something like it. I could have just got a file holder thing, but, noooooooooooooooooo! I had to be creative and cheap!! Although, I wonder if it wouldn't have ended up being the same price, after all the stuff I used. I can't just stop at one embellishment or even two! LOL!
Let's see, ok, today I get an email from Kyah's teacher. You must know that she has been having some issues apparently, we just found out, with reading. Keep in mind that we had no idea! Also keep in mind, that I told her teacher "If there are any issues, please let me know. We like to be involved as much as possible." The other day we get a note sent home saying she has been recommended to have testing done, to see if she would benefit from reading support, in the learning center. My DH and I were like, WHAT?????? Anyway, I won't bore you with all the details. Suffice to say, we were pretty UPSET!! Then today, after a few emails went back and forth between myself and the school, I get another email saying that my DD refuses to read out loud with the class. That she seems to have her own agenda sometimes. REALLY??? I hadn't noticed!! LOL! Ok, so I am thinking, gee she must have had a rough day today. Maybe it's time I make this folder box thing to help cheer her up! Bottom line? I spent all day on this thing, in between caring for the twins, of course. Hey, I mean, it consumed me!! I just get something in my head and I have to do it and or finish it! ya know? I just get carried away!!
In the process of this WHOLE thing? I cut a huge chunk out of my finger; my index finger! It still HURTS!! I probably took off the first layer of skin, at least! That's what I get, right?? I got the bright idea to take a USPS Priority box and cut some of it off. It' sturdy, alterable, and the perfect size!! Why didn't I think of that before??! And that's where it all started!! (ha, love that sentence starter, not correct English!) I love it!! I just LOVE it!! I was VERY proud of myself! I hope you LOVE it too! Let me know what you think. Ok? Alright then, enough of my babbling, I had to give you some background though. It just wouldn't mean as much without it.
I hope you all made it thru my long drawn out story, because you have to know, I could have gone on! And on, and on! Hehe! That's just me, I guess! You wonder where my DD gets it from! HA! I hope you didn't mind! I will stop talking now! Thanks so much for stopping by, it truly means so much to me! I love being able to share with you! Have a great night and stay well!! Until tomorrow.........................
And....................Here it is, right by the front door, where she won't forget it!!

My Riley's Came!!
Hooray! My Riley stamps came Saturday! Talk about excited little me! Haha! So, how are you all? Thanks for visiting! I promised you a Riley card and guess what, I made 2!! I hope you like them. You will have to let me know what you think of the pics. I tried using the natural light, that was coming in thru my back sliding glass door. Do they look better than the others? The same or do the others look better? Just wanted your opinion. What do you tink of the coloring? I have been practicing you know! I have to apologize to my Bella Sistah, Carri, she just posted her Riley in a car. Who knew I would have the same taste and get the same stamp! Now, hers is way cool and I didn't want to copy her, but I did like her idea of using the CB folder. So, I hope you don't mind Carri, I used mine too! I like yours so much. I did change it up though, I think, and yours is way better! Check Carri's Riley out HERE! Hey and check out her new Blog Look! You will love it! Our awesome friend Michelle, at Shabby Creations, created it; just like she did mine and a few others I know. She does such a great job, be on the look out for her work, you can't miss it! Anyway, I am trying to get this in before tonight. My DH actually is working during the day today and will be home this evening! We don't usually get to see him at night, because he is ALWAYS at work! He has been so great about working the 4-12mid shift, so I can work a little during the day. Although I only get to work 2 days a week and it may be coming to an end, at least it's better then nothing! I like being able to use my brain, you know? By the way, on that other Riley card, the School one? This is how pathetic I am about matching stuff. Check out the saying at the bottom and the apple. The saying is from that MFT set I got and the apple is from my Changito School set. Funny how I keep what each set has, up in that head of mine! Hehe! I am always thinking on what will match what! I hope all of you and your families are safe and sound, especially those who have endured that hurricane! Well, Kyah is home from school now, so I better go find out how her day was! Thanks for stopping by and I will see you tomorrow. Until then....................ENJOY!!

Simplicity On A Sunday!!
Good afternoon to you!! Hope you all are safe and sound!! I had some time today and actually got 2 cards done! Imagine that! I know I promised you a Riley, but, that will have to wait until tomorrow! Sorry! I also had time to get all of the different things, I had to mail, ready to go!! So I am very happy about that!I just got my FIRST set of stamps from Kitchen Sink Stamps! I love them! I got a 3 step chick set. You know how it is, you peruse the SCS gallery and there it is! Your next MUST have! Haha! I am still learning, so be kind. I had to find 4 shades to use for the chick image. I had to play around a bit with it, to get it just right. You know me, picky, picky,picky! Then I wanted to find a way to make the card simple. Well, simple enough, that it didn't take away from the chick image. You know? I am pleased with how it came out, although I was hating the ribbon, for a while! It will do, I suppose! The next card, I had floating around in my mind for quite some time. I knew I wanted to stamp 3 of the little cars, all in a row. Aren't they cute? I just didn't know what type of card it would be. Oh yeah, and can you see the stickles I used on the red car? They are still the ones I had from Limelight Papercrafts! I traded with someone on SCS for a MFT sentiments set and there it was, One In A Million! I don't own any other MFT sets, but, I think they will be added to the wish list! Haha! They seem really reasonable price wise and the images are way adorable! Ok, so what do you think? Which one is your fav? Would you have done anything differently? Hey, if you haven't lately, you should check out LIMELIGHT PAPERCRAFTS! She is adding some cool stuff lately, as always! I haven't visited for a while myself and need to head over there! So, are you all having a great weekend? Except those of you who are enduring this horrible hurricane crap! I am so sorry you all had to deal with that! I guess I shall go get my DD ready for school tomorrow, since I actually posted so early! Can't wait to visit with you again! See you soon, until then.......................~

Speaking of visiting, I am glad you stopped by! I have a cute card to share with you tonight. I bought my first Sissix die and have been putting off using it. Tonight I finally did! I read on SCS that I could use it with my CB and I guess you could say it worked. Just not the way I had planned! I first tried to use it with the C plate, which I thought was for die cuts. Well the plate was too thick and I didn't want to force it, for fear of breaking it! That would not have been good, since I have not had it for long!! I was determined to make it work, so I tried the regular plates I use; it did work, but, it cut into the bottom plate! I knew it would, but, what was I to do? I can't buy a seperate machine for that; not with 3 kids!! LOL! So, I figure I will just have to look for an extra plate sometime. Then again, I don't think it will effect how well it works, at least not for a while. Anyway, I also tried my hand at cutting again and seemed to fair a little better this time!! I used my brand NEW Little Tees set, from Gina K!! Now this is my first set I have gotten from her, this and the Retro Boutique set. I really like them, don't you? I used my good ole stand by BG paper, DCWV. I just love these mat stacks that match!! I recently ordered a Basic Grey one and I can't wait for it to arrive. I really wish I could find Basic Grey around where I live; then I wouldn't have to pay shipping on it and I could get it whenever I needed to! Haha! Well here's MY card and I hope to see all of you tomorrow! I got some new Riley's, so I think that will be my card for next time!! Stay well! Enjoy Life!! Until later..............................

I just love how he moves his Boppy pillow around now. Kyah, my oldest DD, hardly used hers at all!
