Sweet Teddy....

Hello and Happy Tuesdays Everyone!

I hope your week is going great so far!

Today I get to make a long journey to

the Doctors with my hubby! I mentioned

on another post that he had a stroke at such

a young age (36) and is now disabled... I was

just a Stay at home mom... until this happen then

I became a caregiver as well.... And since we

live pretty much in the middle of no where....

Our Dr's. office is about 1 hour and 45 minute

drive from here! He goes to a specialist every 6 months

and His Dr. is located in Colorado.... Luckily we live near

the 4 corners so CO, AZ, NM, are just a hop, skip and a jump

from us! LOL Still it is a long drive there and then the long drive back....

It's like one of my monthly grocery shopping trips... it's an all day event!

Sooo while I'm away I hope you enjoy this cute baby girl card I made! :o)

I thought this came out soooo cute!

I LOVE Bears... Infact I collect them!

I have bears all over my house... Well not all

over.... but almost all over and I've been collecting them

for many, many years! Sooo when I seen this

cute bear on the cartridge I just had to make something! :o)

Everything is Stampin' Up except for

the Peachy Keen Face Stamp... I used the Large

Critter faces, I also used stickles for the bow,

Signo white gel pen for the Faux Stitching, and

Bazzill adhesive gems for a little extra bling!

Thanks for stopping by... I really do appreciate it!

Have an AWESOME DAY!

Baby Boy Toy Card....

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone!

I Hope you all had a terrific weekend!

I told you last week that I would post some

of the baby cards I was making last week...

Sooo to start off the new week I have a cute

little baby boy card! I think it came out adorable

so it is now my favorite card for today! LOL

I also have a story for ya.....

With all of my cards, I start them all out

in my Design Studio... And I place shapes

and cuts where I want them to be and I also

take notes while doing this process..... This

terrible thing happened with my designs this week...

I pre-designed all the cards I made last week and thought

I hit the save button like I always do... and the next morning

when I went to open my program up... there was nothing

there! OMGOSH!!! I freaked out for about 5 minutes....

I kept saying Where is it???? Where is it?????

As if the computer was gonna tell me! Anyway...

I was sooo upset that I had lost all that work I did

and then I remembered that I also took notes and

wrote down the sizes/measurements... Soooo

I'm happy to say that I was able to create almost all

of the cards that I had lost in that file! Thank Goodness!

I am still missing some of my notes... Not sure where I put them

but otherwise I was able to get all my baby cards done, and

my Male Birthday cards, and some Thank you cards....

I still kind of wish I knew what I did... maybe it was sooo

late and I clicked the wrong button... I know it is the likely

thing... but I keep thinking I swear I hit the save button...

Anyway... It's all good now! and here is one of the

cards I saved on paper! :o)

(Click on the Image to Enlarge)

Card Stock - Stampin' Up

Designer Paper - Basic Grey

Cartridge - B is for Boy (Lite Cartridge from Wally World)

Toy is Cut @ 2 1/2"

The Word (Baby) is Cut @ 1" with the Shadow

I LOVE this paper from Basic Grey... I know it's an

older collection... but it's one of my fav's for

Baby/Children's cards! :o) It's a clean, simple look without

to many layers.... Well that's it for today... I'll be back tomorrow

with a baby girl card for ya! :o)

Thanks for stopping by.... I appreciate it!

Have an AWESOME DAY!!!

Lovely Floral (Martha Stewart)

Hello and Happy Tuesday Everyone!

I hope you are having a Great Day!

I told you yesterday that I was making

something with my Martha Stewart

Cartridges.... And YUP! I Sure Am!

I've done several cards that I can't wait

to show you this week! Sooo, Here is the

First one I Have done! :o)

(Click on the Photo to Enlarge the Picture)

Card Stock, Ink, Ribbon, Punches - Stampin' Up

Designer Paper - Basic Grey

Cartridge - MS Seasonal Cake Art

(Frame) - I used the Time for Tea Feature and

Cut the Frames out @ 2 3/4"

(Flowers) - I used the Cake Feature and

Cut the Flowers out (2x's) @ 2 3/4"

I cut the flowers out twice because of

Stability.... the flower cut on the cake feature

is very dainty and I thought it needed

an Extra layer since I was adding

Dimensionals to pop it up! :o)

The Sentiment is Computer Generated...

I also used a Quickutz Embossing Folder

called Flowers and put it through my Cuttlebug

I-rock and Signo Gel Pen

Well... I hope you like it... It really is

nice just exploring some of

your Cartridges and that is what

I did.... I decided to explore my

Martha Stewart Cartridges and see

what I come up with! You should try it to,

and let me know what you come up with!

Thanks for stopping by Have an

AWESOME DAY!!!!!

Cold, Snow, FUN!!!

Hello and Happy Monday Everyone!

I hope you are all off to a great week!

I wanted to post what we did with our boys

yesterday.... Noooo it's not craft related but

it will make for a great scrapbook Page!

My boys go back to school tomorrow and

we wanted to do one last thing with them

before they return to the usual study habits!

YES! Playing in the SNOW! :o)

We had 5 days of Rain before Christmas and

so our Christmas was not White this year!

But Just after Christmas... We got several

Days of just SNOW! I guess to make up for

what we hadn't gotten most of the month

of December! :o)

Soooo... Here are our 3 boys sledding and playing in

the snow... It was a whole 12 degrees outside...

BRRRRR.... I was freezing my butt off! LOL

I don't own Snow boots although I should...

Sooo I had to stand back and take pictures

while the boys played.... My hands were

FREEZING! :o)

Here are all my MEN! They are a

handsome group of Guys! LOL

Hubby is disabled... had a stroke at the age

of 36... So he can not get in the snow

and play... He has a bad Right leg

and Right arm... soooo Winter

time is really difficult for him to

get around... but he wanted to go and

watch the boys play and so we did!

This is them just after we got back... :o)

One last picture of the boys playing

in the snow.... I have more pictures but

I  don't want to overwhelm you with them!

I will have to scrapbook this and maybe then

you will be able to see all the pictures on

a 2 page Layout! One of these days! :o)

I will be back tomorrow with a card....

I'm using my Martha Stewart Cartridges

this week... Sooo most of my post will have that!

Thanks for stopping by and looking!

Have an AWESOME DAY!!!!
