OK here's the details...
Paper: Daydream patterned paper, Sweet Leaf, White Daisy, and Lilac Mist cardstock
Inks: Blush

I hope to get some real scrapping time in this weekend so I'll have some more!

Here's a little Flair....


Here's a real quick post before going to bed for some much needed rest. My friend and I tag teamed on this card. She did the embossing with some instruction from me and I stamped and colored the images. I can't remember which pattern from the Originals book this was, but we just threw it together to show off the Stamp of the Month called "You've Got Flair". Hope everyone has a great Friday and I still have more to post later can you believe it... LOL!

Until then....

Be Blessed!

How about a little MOJO....


My friend's birthday is Friday along with her husband's and my mom's so I needed to get my mojo going. I decided to use the Mojo Monday sketch and make this card. I really like the way it turned out. I'm just sorry it took me so long to get on the Stampin' UP! in colors bandwagon last season. I also like the stamp set called "Cheep Talk" from SU! I know I'm a CTMH consultant, but I'm and equal opportunity Scrapper. LOL!!
Hope everyone had a great hump day and is on the downhill slide for a great weekend. I have more to post, I just hope I'm not to lazy to do it. LOL!
So until next time....
Be Blessed!

I have actually been crafting, but.....


I haven't taken any pictures of what I have done. I have actually made 5 pages and should be finishing up some right now, but I have other things on my mind. I thought I'd show you a picture of my little girl in her Knights in Armour outfit. Our church has recently started a class for the kids on Sunday afternoon. The have a Bible study first and then go to the basement and learn some Kung Fu. The couple who started this are awesome Godly people and the kids enjoy it so much.I just think Kassidee looks so cute in her costume. First they learn how to put the Armour of God on when they go out in the world and then they are taught not to start fights, but to learn to protect themselves if someone ever attacks them. I enjoy watching them and really hope that Kassidee learns more about our wonderful Saviour. I can't wait until the day the Holy Spirit fills her heart and leads her to salvation. She has already started asking about different things that are said in church so I pray it will only take time and she too will be saved from sin. I love my little knight and everything she does. I will always support her in whatever she may pursue. I just pray God puts his hand on her and leads her through her life.

I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of July and will remember what it really means. Thank God for this wonderful country I can praise him openly and not be scrutinized. I hope to be back soon with some artwork posts until then.....

Be Blessed!!!

Finally a LAYOUT!!!







I have a workshop tomorrow night and I finally got a layout done. My girls wanted to do the July "workshop on the go" this month because most of them went to the zoo over Memorial Day weekend. I changed it up a little bit because I was supposed to use the "Sweet Baby" stamp set, but used "It's a Zoo" instead.
These pictures were taken at Grant's Farm in St. Louis last July. We went with my friend Kathy, her husband, and their grand children. We really had a great time and I got some Great pictures.
The weather here in Southern Illinois is very hot and HUMID! I know it has been raining a lot, but I think I would rather have the rain and it be cool than it be sunny and humid. When it's this kind of weather all you want is lay in the pool and relax, but unfortunately I have to work and the pool is not ready yet. James started on it tonight so maybe it will be ready for our vacation in about a week.
Hope everyone has had a great Thursday and is gearing up for a great weekend! We are having a sleepover on Saturday night so it should be lots of fun. Just hope Kassidee can control the green eyed monster... LOL!
Have a great night everyone.
Stay Cool and Be Blessed!
