{Paper Smooches} Smarty Pants Birthday Choir

I love these stamps and since this is one of the newest sets I have gotten, I wanted to share an idea I found.

2nd Graduation Card

I can't tell you how much I love my Paper Smooches stamp sets. They are so fun and this card features my new set Smarty Pants.

Graduation Time!

Took me longer than I wanted, but two cards done...eight more to go!

Quick gift for a special neighbor

We had a neighbor that was having a surprise birthday today. So what better way to celebrate than to give extra bling and chocolate!

Paper Smooches Stamps & Cuddlebug

I fell in love with Paper Smooches rubber stamps last spring and with the use of my Cuddlebug created this cute card.

Oops!

Well, you know how life can get busy, right? Mine did, LOL. With three active kids in everything from school to sports & a husband in the military, I haven't been able to post anything.

Now that they are getting older and I am gaining other interests too, Scrapbooking has turned into scrapbooking, card making, crafting (still, of course), and joining a group that does mystery dinners/treasure hunts/ghost tours/ghost hunts. All of that, with kids, with husband....well you get where I am going with it all.

I will post, just not as often. Had no idea until today that it's been two years since the last post!
Look for new pictures soon!!

Got to work at the craft table again. With the kids lucky enough to recieve a "really cool" game for the xbox, they were kept busy for a while. Leaving me to get some scrapbooking done. This is from Cricut's Basketball cart and the "camp" is from Varsity Lite. Thanks for letting me share!

Christmas Trees

The kids and I made some necklaces for their friends for Christmas this year. This was the holder that I made from Cricut's Tags, Bags, Boxes & More 2.  Decorated with rubber stamps and markers. Was quick to do and cute to see.

Hope you all had a great Christmas and wishing you all a Happy 2013!
Sincerely,
Andi

Birthday Card

It seems like the only time I get to make a card is when I need one. Someday, I would like to make a batch of cards, just to have on hand to give out when ready. Instead of making them a few days before I need them. Oh well, sometimes I work best under presure....do you?

  

 

I scored at a local garage sale, with the addition to my stock, a cuddlebug embossing plate. It made the embossed circles. The stamps came from a company called Paper Smooches. I found a set at Archiver's which prompted me to order two more from them directly. Here's their address:

Love them too!!

 Hope she likes her card!

Have a great day!

 

Loving my new cartridge....TEAM SPIRIT from Cricut!!

Two weeks ago I purchased Team Spirit off of Amazon.com. When it came in the mail three days later, I was so excited to open it. Finally!! A tougher looking mascot for my children's school! It's ok to have a "cute" little tiger for the Elementary years, but as they get older-it just won't work.

After putting one together, the older kids were in love!! Here's what it looked like...

So, with school starting soon, binders could not be plain. My son got so many complements on his
two binders I made. Even from the teachers!!

After that, I was on a roll!! Next was water bottles. Now I am currently looking to make the whole football team water bottles with the tiger and their numbers!! Just have to find only 25 water bottles to add the vinyl tiger too.

 

 

I also added a small tiger with the sports that my kids play as a decal on my van. There isn't a picture of that....yet. I am hoping to post these onto Cricut's message board, but it all depends on how the system works with me today. I "had issues" with google earlier trying to blog from my Picasa account. Wish me luck!
