Happy Stampin

Lots of fun new images to share this week. I got in a glitter mode and made everything sparkly! I took the little birdie holding the Star of David and used it to add the star to the top of my tree. I just got a new package of Paper Studio paper from Hobby Lobby so that is where the tree and pattterned paper came from. I added some garland, the star topper and a little bow for some bling.

Lily is so cute sitting on this lolipop. I thought she needed glitter too so she got a little bling added as well. I did everything on the computer, printed both my image and the sentiment from Word. I used the Wordart in Word to make the words looks arched. You can't go wrong with polka dot ribbon! There are dots added to her dress and more glitter to her hat.

Be sure to check out all of the other girls creations too. Melissa - http://www.pinkcatstudio.blogspot.com/ Emily Leiphart - http://www.leiphartonart.blogspot.com/ Inge Groot - http://www.patternedpaper.typepad.com/ Kerry Donovan-Casey - http://…

I had to make some sympathy cards today and these are my least favorite cards to make and I only send these out if I absolutely have to. I've seen more sympathy cards this year to last me a lifetime. I needed some so I sat down for about 10 minutes this evening and whipped these up. They are simple yet elegant I think.

I used Mamask Designs from PTI and Ocean Tides paper and ribbon. I added a little chocolate for some pop and the pearls. It's a very, very easy card and could be mass produced
for almost any occasion.

Digi DT Bio Betty Contest
Pink Cat Studio is starting a fun contest today! Melissa asked each Digi DT member to create a Betty that tells us a bit about herself. Can you figure out who created each Betty ? If so then you could win some free digi stamps!!
Visit the Pink Cat Studio blog to learn how to enter the contest. If you know me at all I'm sure you can figure out which one I am!!!

Finally I have pictures to share of my kiddo's rooms. My Mom came down to help me finish up the baby room and I LOVE how it turned out.

Here is the new rocking chair pad cover that I got to match the room. I thought this paisley print went perfectly in his room.
Here is a YEE HAW sign that I actually made for Ethan's 4th brithday party. It was the banner than we hung up and our friend Brick remembers oh so vividly Ethan pointing to his sign saying that it said "Happy Birthday Ethan".

Here's a look at the wall of "frames". I got this idea from something in a pottery barn magazine. I just took unfinished 12x12 frames, painted them red, bought red gingham paper and cut out a 6x6 square and added the art in the middle. This is one of my favorite parts of the room.
Two new frames for baby Kale. The horses are acutally a metal ornament and makes it 3D. The other is an embroidered boot and hat by my sister-in-laws Mom.

Here are the other 2 frames. Th…

Melissa with Pink Cat Studio has created 3 adorable images once again. I chose to work with Lily in her winter coat! I really like how the background turned out and I added some bling with rhinestones! Look on the digi site too because there are "FREE", yes "FREE" digital sentiments to go along with these images. Be sure to take a look.
Melissa is starting a contest too....."Digi Ideas Contest". To enter the contest, leave a comment on Melissa's post and suggest an idea for a new digi stamp. Each week she will select an idea and turn it into a digi stamp. The person who made the suggestion will receive the new digi for free in advance of the release and will be invited to create a card with it to be displayed on Melissa's blog during the new release.
Stop by and see what all the other gals have created too. One of these days I'll get everyone loaded on my side bar, but until then: Melissa - http://www.pinkcatstudio.blogspot.com/

Stamp club is tonight so I worked up a card/photo book this morning to make tonight. I made a little aensemble to go with the card. I love these new templates that Lauren created for PTI. You can take a look at them here.....all for $5 and you can keep creating with them! I'm going to use these at Christmas for some gift cards.

Here's a close up of my card. It is scored at a 1/2 inch from the edge so the pages will turn nicely. I used burlap as the background.

Here's a closer look at my little gift boxes. I just love these little things.....they are sooo cute!

Thanks for stopping by!

Guess I was in the picture taking mode this weekend! We promised Ava we could go get some pumpkins yesterday, so we loaded up Ranger and went for a walk to the winery. Most kids get to go to a pumpkin patch, but not us, we walk with our miniature burro and cart down to the winery! Here are some of the cute pics I got!


My favorite Fall Picture of Ava Girl! Sitting outside of the winery!


Here's Ava toting the pumpkins to the cart.....she's quite independent and had to do this all by herself!
Here's Ava all loaded up and ready to go home!
Then our famous Lilly Rose got on the roof again so Ava and I rescued her from the window. Then Ava got to play with her upstairs in her room for a while before putting her back out! She just loves her little kitty!
