I'm Back.

Sorry for the lack in posts. I'm trying to get adjusted to working full time after 3 years of staying home with the kids and watching my niece. It has been an adjustment for us all. My son still does not like doing to daycare, but I hope it will get better with time. So enough about me.
This is a mini chip board album I made for my DH last year for father's day. I really like this stamp for Ruff Day, SU. I used crystal effects and black reinker on his nose to make it look wet.Hope you like it. I do hope to post a couple times a week, but I will have to see how it fits into my family life. Hope to post soon,

Happy Fathers Day

Hope everyone had a great fathers day. We went to Alma today and my DH got to ride his dirt bike and then out for lunch. The kids had fun riding the dirt bike too. Well this is the card I made him for fathers day. I just love this stamp set by The Cats Pajamas. Sorry for the quick post, but it's still fathers day, for a few more hours anyway.
Hope you like it,

Happy Birthday card

Sorry for the lack in posts. I've started back to work and it's hard to find time for everyone and everything. Hopefully I will find a routine that includes stamping and scrap booking. This is a card I made with one of Taylors sketches from a few weeks ago, but never posted.

Punch Storage

Today I thought I would share some of my punch storage. The shelf is an old window that my DH added a shelf to and it works great to hold my punches. Then below it is a bar we got from Home Depot in with the kitchen stuff. It works great for me and gets them up off my work area, and I need all the space I can get. We are currently in the process of redoing my scrap book area and can't wait for it to be done. I will share pictures when its done, but it will be a while. All of our home improvement projects are very slow, but oh well they get done eventually. Have a great day,

Taylors Cupcake Challenge #18

Well today is a beautiful day with temps in the 80's yeah. We are going to Kearney to participate in the Kearney Kidney Walk at Yaney Park. It's a 3 mile walk and the whole family is going. Should be lots of fun. Well on the the card.
A cupcake challenge without cupcakes? Sorry no cupcakes this time, but what a great sketch. I thought it would look great with of course a bella. This is dogwalkabella. She is so cute with her pretty outfit. For her outfit I paper pieced different patterned pattern and look, her purse matches her shirt which also matches her head band. I found the circle tab in my stash and thought it went great. This was a fun card to make. Hope you like it,

A bella card and {a new car}

Don't you just love the smell of a new car? Well I sure do even if it's not brand new, its still new to me. I got a new, used car today. It was totally unexpected, you know when you just go to look, were not going to buy anything and then something happens and you get to bring it home. I just love it when that happens. I can't believe I totally forgot to take a picture, maybe tomorrow. Ok, ok, on to the card. As soon as I saw bikababeabella, I had to have her and look how cute she is on her bike. Have a great weekend,

One of my favorites

The weather continues to be wet here, but warm today with another chance of storms tonight. My kids are going crazy from being stuck in the house for 2 days. Hopefully we can get outside before bad weather strikes again, or mommy may go crazy with them.

Here is a card I made awhile ago and I have to say it's one of my favorites.
I'm just in love with red and black right know.
Well hope you like it,
Shara
