Fun, Fun, Fun

Scrap 4 Life is having a Cyber Crop January 23rd - 25th. If you haven't ever participated in one, they are a blast and Scrap 4 Life is wonderful site to get started! Check it out at Scrap4life.com .

Feelin' Better

Well Peyton is sure feeling better! I got him all dressed and ready to go, as I wanted out of the house for a bit. Next thing I know his shoes and socks are off. Then came the pants and little jacket. Now he is running around wild with only his diaper and t-shirt! So much for leaving the house! Me, on the other hand, just needs to be put out of my misery! haha....

I don't have much to share scrappy wise as I haven't been at my scrap table much lately. My camera's been broken since before Christmas so I don't have that many pictures either. Here is one I just stole from my parents. Jazzy and Peyton played dress up at Mema's house.

Peyton push his car and chase Jazzy while she rode the bike!

I finished this layout a few days ago, but just got around to uploading and editing it. I bought this paper through my Memory Works company. I have fallen in love with it, its ssooo pretty. It is My Minds Eye Peaceful theme. I still have two pieces of paper to the set and some die cuts that I can't wait to use. I could really get addicted to the Say It In Crystals by Prima (the rhinestone flourish).

Hope everyone had a great weekend and is ready for a new week!

Mom, Peyton and I took off for Redmond and Bend yesterday in search of fabric for the baby quilt. I am so excited! My amazingly talented mom is making a baby quilt for little girl on the way. She made one for Peyton that I just love and can't wait to see how this one comes out. While at the quilt store in Redmond mom spotted a really cool quilt partially done that is close to the pattern I had chosen but SSSOOO much better! We also found the two main fabrics! They are much brighter than the original fabric we chose, but I'm lovin' it. I can't wait to share it with you all!

While in Bend we were able to meet up with my Aunt Sherry for a quick bite to eat. It was so nice to visit with her for a bit. We also stopped by Carters to see if they had any good sales going on. Kimmy, you'll be happy to know mom and I found few really cute pink outfits! lol.....I figured that with baby due in a couple months I should at least have a few girly outfits for her. It was a lot of fun! Peyton was too darn cute. He wanted to help shop for his baby sister so he'd pull something off of a rack, bring it to me and say 'Look, Mommy, look! Isn't it cute?' and 'Aww...how cute'. He's going to be such a great big brother!

Some exciting news...I am the featured member on Scrapbook Dreamer (www.scrapbookdreamer.com)! I was shocked to receive the e-mail saying I'd been chosen! This was my first site that Tammy got me hooked on and I have really enjoyed how friends and uplifting all the members are!

Caardvarks Holiday hop Day 2

Welcome! If you've come to my site from Jennifer's blog great! If not make sure to head over to the beginning of the blog hop, Caardvarks Blog, so you don't miss any eye candy.
I have to say, I am getting completely addicted to the Creative Cuts & More boxes and bags. I am having so much fun with them. There are so many to choose from. As if the large variety wasn't enough to keep me busy there are all sorts of options such as color, smooth cardstock, bling cardstock, acetate and so on! This is the Acetate Cake Slice Box. This was so quick and easy. I used Killer Red Tacky Tape (which CC&M has an excellent deal on ) to adhere the box together. I was hoping to find Christmas M&M's or make caramel corn to fill it, but time just didn't allow it. You could put all sorts of goodies in it. I think these make a perfect gift for co-workers, friends, your childs teacher or for pretty much anybody!
Now on to the ever so talented Lila.

HAPPY..

Happy New Year!

Chris is outside braving the wind to take the lights down. Peyton is watching Jungle Book 2 and I just got done starting a load of laundry, a load of dishes and making cookies!

Hope everyone had a wonderful evening last night and enjoying a day of rest today! We are still struggling a little at our house (me with my cold and Peyton with his bronchitis). But Peyton seems to be doing somewhat better! YEAH!

Caardvarks Holiday Hop Day 1

Welcome! If you've come to my site from Jennifer's blog great! If not make sure to head over to the beginning of the blog hop, Caardvarks Blog, so you don't miss any eye candy.

Have you started drooling over the fantastic cards you've seen so far? I sure have!

I used a Purse Card with Gift Certificate layer from Creative Cuts & More. We have had gloomy weather here and I haven't been able to get good lighting for a good picture. I have a random polka dot stamp that I inked up in red and created a depth to the card. I adhered a few embellies and tied a couple pieces of ribbon onto it. Easy as that! Gift cards have become quite popular Christmas gifts. I think this card is a fun way to give them!

Here is a shot of the inside. The die cut comes with the inside layers, one of which has slots for the gift card!
