3 Birthday's Last week

Hey all! I'm finally getting to post a couple of pictures of the birthdays we celebrated last week. Kevin turned 40 and like always we keep things very casual. We went out for a family dinner at our favorite local Mexican restaurant and then came back for some cake and ice cream.

One of Kevin's favorite cakes is carrot cake so I baked one and YES... I actually put in 40 candles and we lit them all! The boys loved it.

My cake decorating skills are sure rusty, but nothing fancy so I skated by.


Next, the twins turned 4 just 2 days later. I was originally going to do something with SpongeBob again since that was what the boys kept talking about. But then the morning of, I baked off 2 round layers and Will piped in that he wanted a cake with M&M's on it.

So that turned into the boys getting individual cakes since I had 2 anyway. Will decided he wanted a red cake and Nate decided he wanted a green cake. It all worked out perfectly and they were quite pleased with their non fancy cakes.




Again... casual, but they had fun and got those light sabers that they so wanted!

Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend.

Stamp Something - Thank yous

Hey friends... its Friday again which means its time for our next Stamp Something challenge. We were given an image from Soft Pencil and this cute snowman and little boy was the one that I picked.

I printed him out and then used Copics to color the image, did a bit of sponging, and added some Polar White flower soft.

Patterned paper is Close to my Heart, ribbon is Papertrey ink and my sentiment is Stampin up.

Thanks for coming by to visit and make sure you head on back to Stamp Something to see the DT's beautiful samples. Remember you've got all week to play.

A great Cause... In Memory of Layton

Hi everyone! This is going to be short due the fact that I'm not feeling up to snuff at the moment, but I very much wanted to share this card with you.

My good friend Jak from Crafter's Kitchen just had a great nephew pass away due to complications caused by Meningitis. Head on over to Jak's to see a lovely picture of the family and some words describing Layton.

She is fund raising for the cause and for a nominal charge you can purchase 2 digi images that will be yours forever.

I chose to print out and color this image from Mo Manning.

Thanks for coming by and please head on over to Jak's to see how you can help.

Stamp Something - Sketch Something

Hey all, its Friday and that means its time for another Stamp Something challenge. This week Denise and Erin have a sketch to get your juices flowing. Head on over to see the sketch and this weeks sponsor.

We were given a digi image to work with from Stretch and Bubbles this week and I picked this cute little girl. I love my Prima Hydrangea flowers and basically worked around the pink and green tones. I chose some Basic Grey Porcelain paper and that made it easy...

Colored her with copic markers and she was easy and fun to color.

Make sure to head on over and check out all the great eye candy from the DT.

Thanks for coming to visit and have a great Friday.

Holiday Card

Hey all... just a quickie post with a little card to share. I was just playing around with a stamp set I've had for a very long time. I played with it last year, but didn't ever get anything made for some reason. Its a Hero Arts clear set and what attracted me to it was the triple trees and the fact that its a large image and easy to create with.

I decided to emboss the trees in white straight onto some PTI designer paper. I then took some lighter green ink (spring moss) and sponged all around the embossed trees. Added some snowflakes in some white pigment ink and added a bit of ribbon. Simple but pretty at the same time.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.

Clearly Inspired Challenges (CIC)

Hey everyone! Woo hoo... got something to share with you today. I haven't spent that much time on this card, but I will tell you that it has taken me 3 days to get it finished and uploaded.

If you didn't know already, Clear Dollar Stamps has started a new challenge over on Lori's blog called Clearly Inspired Challenges. These challenges will be hosted by me and will be every other Friday (last Friday being the very first). Head on over to get all the details.

You get one week to play and some members of the CDstamps design team will always have inspiration for you for each and every challenge. This week's challenge is called "Give me 5" and is a very easy challenge all based on the number 5 and I picked number 5 because Lori just celebrated her 5th year of business with her company.

I didn't cheat or anything, but I did go the simple route... simple is good right? I had wanted to ink up this set called Baskets of Blessings for a long time and the apples were perfect! There are exactly 5 of them :)

I used my Copics to color the basket and apples and actually had the paper all ready matted and ready to go from an earlier card that I had planned on making.

I did some sponging after using my nesties to cut out my image and sentiment. The sentiment is actually a label die that I cut the ribbon slots off.

That's it for me today and I hope you had or are having a good day and you've got plenty of time to go play the CIC challenge. Its easy, fun, and you just might win a prize!


Recipe:
Cardstock: CTMH and PTI
Designer Paper: CTMH
Stamps: Baskests of Blessings (CDstamps)
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, CTMH black

Stamp Something - Recipe Something and Spreading Love and Hope

Hey everyone! I hope you had a great week... mine has been pretty standard. I always look forward to my Wednesday's though when I have my card ladies come to visit me. I really, really enjoy these very lovely ladies and have a lot of fun. Plus, they are a captive audience and I can share all my latest creations. They are much more adoring than my other wise lovely husband.

Anyway, I digress somewhat and need to get back to the point which is Stamp Something. I'm a bit tardy, but this special event is still going on right now.


This is the caption from the special Stamp Something blog:

New Hampshire is a small state filled with even smaller towns. It's the kind of place where you know everyone, leave your keys in the ignition when you run in the post office and don't worry about walking home from a neighbor's house at night. I live in the same town I grew up in by choice, not by necessity and love that my 6th grade music teacher is my daughter's principal, that my cheer leading coach is her guidance counselor and that soon she'll get the chance to beat my classmate's long standing high jump record on field day.

Mont Vernon is an even smaller town than mine about 40 minutes away. It is home to a long time friend and her family as well as their neighbor, 11 year old Jaimie Cates. On the night of October 4th Jaimie and her mom and my friend and her family went to bed with no way of knowing what events were about to transpire to change their lives.

Four local teenagers armed with knives, broke into their home and brutally murdered Kim Cates and seriously injured 11 year old Jaimie. They chose the home for no other reason than its location and for no other purpose than to bring harm to the occupants. It was a senseless, random crime that shook the small town and much of the state.

After receiving a grief filled email from my friend asking for help for the family, I knew I needed to help however I could. I asked my fellow stamper, New Hampshire gal, and long time friend Denise Lynn for ideas. Together, and with the artistic talents of Ann Vento, we came up with the idea of an international blog hop and this blog to raise awareness of the crime. We are hoping to shower Jaimie with wishes of love and hope from around the world to help her recover some of what was lost.

Click --> HERE <-- to get all the details of how you can participate and maybe win a prize or two. It is incredibly sad that events like this happen in our world and touch people we know. Absolutely senseless.

On another note, even amidst all these terrible tragedies that occur all around us (this is why I'd much rather watch Spongebob with the kids sometimes) life does go on. Today is Friday and it is time for another Stamp Something Challenge. Its a recipe challenge and this week is being sponsored by Mo's Digital Pencil. She has some really cool designs. I opted for a boy image which I tend to do with an all boy household. This little guy turned out super cute.

I printed, colored with Copics and did my best with the recipe. I do have to admit it was a bit harder with this image versus getting a girly image. I hope you are willing to see my staples as my 3 embellies.

So the recipe is: 1 ribbon, 2 papers, 3 embellies. Did I make it??

I kept the card pretty simple... Papertrey ink designer paper (black) , misc ribbon, CTMH red polka dot paper and of course staples from my local Office Max or Office Depot (lol).

Thanks for coming by to visit and have a great day! Make sure to head back on over to Stamp Something and check out the other ladies' lovely work.

Halloween Fun

Hey everyone. I wanted to share a couple of pictures from Halloween. Every year I tell myself that I'm going to get started earlier and earlier... some years I'm successful, some years I'm not. I have making the kids Halloween costumes since they were babies and I feel that I must just because its tradition now.

I am no great seamstress, but I don't stress too much about Halloween because a) its dark out when they wear their costumes and b) its just a one time affair.

This year, Hunter was a pirate again (he was last year), but I made a different costume. He's getting to the point where its like sewing "adult" clothing which I don't like at all unless its pajamas or something low stress.

Nate and Will wanted to be Batman so I found the closest pattern I could find. That is one thing I'm not... innovator. I need a pattern just like I need a recipe if and when I cook.

I'm pleased to say that all the boys enjoyed dressing up and their costumes. And I'm pleased we had really nice weather. We never know what to expect, we've had below freezing temps, thunder and lightening, rain, rain, and more rain. But this year was quite nice.



Thanks for visiting and have a great day!

Birthdays and things to come

Hey everyone! Late post today, but here it is nonetheless!

First, I'd like to wish my MIL a wonderful birthday today. We are so sorry we didn't get your card out early, but it will be on its way soon. We hope you have a wonderful day and we love you very much!

The card I made to celebrate a fabulous MIL and a great Grandma was created with a stamp set just new today and on special at Clear Dollar Stamps celebrating another birthday. Lori is celebrating her 5th year of business with her stamp company. She and Laurie Wilson designed the stamp set that I used for MIL's birthday card and it is on special for the next 5 days.

Along with this stamp special, if you head on over to Lori's blog - Clearly iStamp, there is a celebration going on where you could be one of 5 winners of a stamp set of your choice. 5 random winners will be chosen for 5 straight days to celebrate this anniversary of Lori's.

*******************************************************************************
And my "thing to come" is a revamped version of the Clear Dollar Stamps Color Challenge. We will be starting a new challenge called Clearly Inspired Challenges that will hosted on Lori's blog too. Our first challenge will be this Friday so make sure to come by and get all the details. Did I mention that there is a prize involved??

Thanks for coming by and visiting and I hope you have a great day!

Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peek - Day 4

Hey everyone! Today's the last day of sneak peeks for Clear Dollar Stamps and you'll be free to shop all the new goodies first thing tomorrow!

BUT... I do have to warn you that there will be one special stamp set (brand new) available at a discount that you won't see until tomorrow on Lori's Blog as well as a few of the Design Team Members blogs. So before you get those shopping carts too full... make sure to visit because there's something special to celebrate on November 1st!!!

Now, back to today's sneak peeks. These are the stamps that you are being featured today:

December Stamp of the Month called Mouse Dreams * Acts 20:35 * Gift Labels * All Single Stamps (snowman, presents, tree, cocoa mug, Christmas sentiments, Happy New Year)

You can see the sets in full on Lori's blog - Clearly iStamp

My first card uses Mouse Dreams and is a super cute image. Doesn't he look all cozy all tucked in?

I think you'll love this next set, especially if you are fond of all those cute "nugget" (in reference to the Hershey's nugget candies" sets that Lori has. These will work great for those candy treats, but this set is also perfect to create your own gift labels for all those presents you'll be wrapping for the holidays.

For my project, I thought it would be really cute to make a little gift booklet of tags. I truly feel that it is a wonderful treat to get a "pre" gift early in the season, but why not gear it to help your friend get ready for the holidays. How about matching up some gift wrap and then creating labels to match.

So here's my outside cover. I used some left over Basic Grey and then used my Cricut to die cut the letters.


And the inside. All the recipient or you have to do is peel and stick.


Don't worry, I'll be offering up a tutorial on this soon.

Well, that's it for me today, but make sure to go check out the other DT members. Trust me, they have lots of great ideas to share with you too.



Have a great day and HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!! I'll be sharing photos soon :)

2nd Post Today - Stamp Something - Cute and Fuzzy Somethings

Hey all... this is my 2nd post today and its that time again for another Stamp Something Challenge. This week the theme is all about cute and fuzzy and the sponsor is Ildi Co.

I ended up using a cute image from TaDa Creative Studios that coordinates with one of their new lines of papers. You can get the papers and stamp at Limelight Papercratfs. I used fun flock to cover his entire body and in hind site I should have colored him first... but it still turned out pretty cute.

The "hee" part was actually part of the "haw" part on the cardstock, but I cut it out and then added it on top instead.

Make sure to head on over the Stamp Something to check out the rest of the DT... you've got an entire week to play so come join the fun.

Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peek - Day 3

Its me again... ok... I must admit that I'm getting a bit weary of the rain. It seems like its been raining forever these days. Halloween is in one more day and I'm excited to get the kids all dressed up. I'm also excited by the fact that its on a Saturday which means that Kevin will be home all day and we won't be rushing around after he would normally come home from work.

I am bumbed that Hunter won't get to wear his costume to school though. This will be the first year that they haven't been allowed to.

Anyway... back to the point of this post. It is another day of sneak peeks for Clear Dollar Stamps. So much good stuff has been shown and more to come (yay). Remember, everything will be available for purchase on the 1st... plus new products I'm sure. I'm always excited to see what Lori adds to her product line.

These are the sets being previewed today and you can see all the previous and today's stamp sets in full over on Lori's blog - Clearly iStamp.

Welcome to Parenthood * Mini Christmas Scriptures * Meowy Christmas * Just Chillin'

I just have two cards to share today using the stamp set called Welcome to Parenthood. What a great set... a story I think about in regards to me as a non parent and then becoming a parent is this one:

I used to work in a bakery located in a grocery store and I would watch moms and their babies and toddlers walk by everyday. I used to get so grossed out by all those babies and toddlers with those gross runny noses and the kids just sucking it up, wiping it across their faces. You know... they would have that dried alligator scale look across their face and their sleeves and/arms would be all gross.

I would think to myself, "Oh my gosh don't those moms wipe their kids noses... geesh!!"

Ha... well now as a mother, we all know that sometimes it doesn't matter how often you try to wipe noses and change shirts so on and so forth... it just doesn't work and you can't win that battle.

So back to the cards (lol). I paired this simple sentiment with Baby Charlie and I think made a cute combo.


And here is my second card to share. I went boy version for the 1st one so I went girl version for this one.

So go check out these fellow DT members that are sharing today as well.

Kim * Angela * Sarah * Candy * Linda A * Nancy * Tricia * Cassie * Stacy * Shawne * Tori * Wendy

Have a great day and make sure to come back for the final peeks tomorrow!

Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peek - Day 2

Hi everyone! Day 2 is here for the Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peeks and you will continue to love all the new stamps that will be available November 1st. What a great way to start out the month.

The stamps being featured today are:

Jolly Joy * Baked for you Tags * Charlie Nativity * Billy and Maggie Carolers * Phil. 4:6-7 (Value Verse)

These sets as well as yesterday's can be viewed in full on Lori's blog - Clearly iStamp.

Today, I'll be sharing samples using Baked for you Tags and Billy and Maggie Carolers. Baked for you Tags is the perfect set if you like making your own baked goodies, but don't feel as though you can't use this set to make sweet cards too.

My first picture is of tags that I created that are pretty generic. You can make these ahead of time and have them ready to go this holiday season or you could make a bunch to give away to friends to use as well. They are super easy and plain adorable.


And here is my card using the large tag image... could be for any occasion!

************************************************************************************

My next two cards were created with Wendy's Louby Lou line available at Clear Dollar Stamps using the Billy and Maggie characters. This time they are dressed to the nines as holiday carolers. I love the old fashioned traditional look with this set.

For my next card, I did the pets at the light post rather than the people. Dogs and Cats do sing you know.


I used Shimmerz and painted the entire embossed background as well as the the white background to give it lots of subtle twinkle.


Well, that's it for me. I hope you are getting lots of inspiration for the holidays... its just around the corner!

Make sure to check out the other sneak peeks today. Have a fabulous Thursday!!!

Kim * Angela * Sarah * Candy * Linda A * Nancy * Tricia * Cassie * Stacy *

Shawne * Tori
(so sorry ladies... I missed you yesterday)

and Wendy

Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peek - Day 1

Hey all... its that time again... yup... Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peek time. If you want to see the full sets make sure to head on over to Lori's blog, Clearly iStamp.

These are the sets that are being shown today: Dog Day Celebrations, Holiday Patterns, Railroad Memories, Reindeer Patchpal and Dinomite.

I've got 3 sets to share with you today so we'll get started. I'll start with Dog Day Celebrations and share a card that is just in time for Halloween. If you have and enjoy last month's set called Dog Days, then this set is perfect for you. You can't see the cute doggie under his costume, but you know he is just too cute!

I paired this ghostly creature with some great looking paper from TaDa Creative Studios and I love the contrast of the simple image with the bright boldness of the paper.


My next card from this set is going into a whole other season, but it too is just around the corner. In this card, the doggy is definitely showing off, but he deserves too since he is too cute with his Santa hat.


I water colored him with a waterbrush and my inkpads... I really like the paper I used for the background but its old stuff and not available anymore, but my FAVORITE part is his Santa hat. I just adore Liquid Applique. It creates such great dimension.


My next cards are from a set being released called Holiday Patterns. This is an easy stamping set which I LOVE! They would make the perfect and easy to put together holiday cards.


And my last stamp set is called Reindeer Patchpal and fits in with all the other Patchpal collection. If you've already started collecting then you definitely want to add this cute little guy to the mix.

For this first card, I didn't use the reindeer at all, but used a companion stamp instead.

I stamped and colored the image and appropriate sections several times and then layered my tree. I love this effect using pop dots.

For my second card, I put the reindeer in the spotlight :)


Thanks for coming to visit me here, but make sure to go visit these lovely ladies with their sneak peeks too. I'll guarantee that you'll love everything you see.


Have a great day!
