Baby Girl Quilt

Just a quick post today……lots on my agenda again today, and a football game against our BIGGEST RIVAL tonight!  We did get to play last night, and it was a very cold and windy night!  Once the cold front blew in………the temperatures went way down!  There was no rain or lightning, though, so the games [...]

Sweet Centers for Halloween

Sorry that I didn’t get this posted yesterday………meant to get it posted since Monday, actually!  I started these on Monday, made my sample, and then things got crazy.   Nothing more going on than the usual “busy stuff” and I am going to confess that all of these are not even assembled just yet!  But I do [...]

Notepad Folio and Composition Book Cover

I have been anxious to show you this adorable gift set that I made for one of Sarah’s best friends.  Her birthday was Saturday, and I wanted to “craft” something that a 12 year old would really like……and that wouldn’t require a ton of money, either.  Sarah had fallen in love with this Notepad pattern [...]

Simple Expressions

Hello Monday!  Hello Friends!  I hope you had a fun weekend!  We had an exciting night on Friday as we defeated Mexia in Varsity Volleyball and Football!  We were definitely the “underdogs” in football, so it was a very big win!  We are now tied for first in both sports!   There is a 3 way [...]

Baby Boy Quilt

Here’s one of my recent sewing projects.  I know this has NOTHING to do with Stampin’ Up!, but I hope that you enjoy seeing some other things from time to time.  You never know what inspiration others might get from seeing different projects, and I enjoy letting you know that I don’t sit around and [...]

Wishin’ for snow…

Seriously, I would love to see some snow!  It won’t happen, but I can always do some wishin’…..I hear that it is falling up north, but all we seem to get here is RAIN, RAIN, and more RAIN!  It rained all day yesterday and supposed to rain all day today…….but it might clear up for [...]

Photo Wallet

Here is the front of the “Photo Wallet” that I introduced yesterday.  This was one of the projects for my October Club Classes.   I originally got this idea from Janet Wakeland’s Blog.  I was thrilled with the idea of using another one of our Big Shot Dies in a fresh, creative way!  This project is made [...]

Bitty Box with Snickers

Look what mommy made with our Stampin’ Up! BIG SHOT! 

I couldn’t resist taking a photo of our precious baby  ”helping me” when I was cutting out cardstock with my Big Shot!  The sample project today was made using the “Bitty Box and Envelope” from page 201 in the IB&C.  This is a cute little box for [...]

Christmas Cocoa

Once again, I have a fond attraction to some new Designer Paper!  Are you surprised?  No way!  But this DSP is so incredibly unique!  Some of the papers are flocked and some of them have a pearlized, irridescent sparkle!  It is not possible to see the true beauty in a photograph, but here is a [...]
