Boat Card

I am loving the nautical trend right now. It makes me want to live closer to the ocean!
Warning: more summer nautical cards to come...

Sew Great

The spool card was a Mother's Day card, I really tried to personalize each card that I made for the moms in our life. I love the sentiment on the second card, everything will be o.k. That is a good one for just about anytime in my book. Summer is quickly approaching, and I have the next couple of months plotted out. I just want to make sure we have a few snow cone dates!

Chemistry Card

 

I was trying to find something chemistry related for my dad's birthday. I cut the beaker shapes from the Silhouette, and then printed the cat image for the inside of the card. I think he will like it!

Lucky

Some more clover cards for a Monday. The boy has strep throat, so he is hanging with me today. I cannot wait to show you a card that I made for my dad's birthday. Let's just say I had to get creative for a chemistry themed one ;)

Happy Birthday and a Butterfly

 You wouldn't think it was Phoenix today, we had snow and hail! It was crazy, not used to that. Here are a couple of spring-ish cards. Just need some spring weather!

More Than Bacon

This the the card I made for my hubby. I saw the idea at Paper Source and got going on it! I used the Silhouette to cut out the lettering and bacon. Happy Valentine's Day!

Mustache Time

 I don't know if you can tell in the photo, but the pink cardstock has mustaches all over it! I found this embossing folder at Joann's, and had to give it a whirl.

I have had this heart paper for years, and couldn't figure out what to do, inspiration finally struck!

New Year, New Beginnings

I wanted to pop in for some  Happy New Year cards! This past year, I choose the word Focus, and honestly since March of 2012 the focus has been on feeling better. So, I don't even know what to pick as a word this year! I'll have to think on that one for a couple of days. I have one last segment of my December Daily to print photos for and it will be complete. It is completely different from 2011, but change can be good! I'll be back soon with a boatload of December Daily photos.

Bee Happy

Some cheery cards for a Monday! I also have started to work on my December daily mini. Was going to photo it today, but it became dark sooner than I expected:)

Cardabilities Sketch #64

Sketch #64 is up at cardabilities! Mustaches are very popular, so I wanted to put at Santa one on this card. The cut is from the Mustaches & Glasses Cricut cartridge. The Santa wording is from the Teresa Collins - December 25th Cartridge.

Thankful

Although this is one of the toughest years I have had in a long time, it has made me more grateful for all that I do have. But, let me tell you- I am sure ready for the new year!  We took a train ride up to the North Pole and then headed to Las Vegas over the Thanksgiving weekend. 

I was really impressed with the whole North Pole experience with the Grand Canyon Railway. The hotel was wonderful with delicous food. It was really an impressive system they have for such a large number of people going on the train!

 I'm not gonna lie, it was sure nice not to have to worry about putting together a Thanksgiving dinner! Everyone got to pick what they wanted, so I chose pizza for the meal:) Now it's time to deck the halls...

Birthday Cards and Tags

We have a ton of winter birthdays coming up, trying to get some cards and tags done!

Happy Card and Wacky Times

A just because card, I really love the peacock feathers paper! I spent a whole day cleaning out and organizing my craft space. Gotta get my zen area back.

 I somehow managed to injure myself while getting an MRI. I was getting an iv put in, and it was not feeling right. I go to the bathroom, and next thing, I passed out because I was face down on the tile! It could of been a lot worse, a broken nose or other broken body parts. So, for now I am sporting a real mean black eye, and have been wearing my sunglasses just about everywhere! These past eight months have rolled this way, and here's to hoping next year is a little less eventful!

School Themed Cards

The finale of school cards! I think we have enough to cover the teachers for this school year. I just started a mini album, it is going to be quite an undertaking (in a fun way!)

The Summer Wind Down

I got in the Olympic spirit with this card! It has been so exciting watching the games.

A suitcase, dug out some washi tape for this one.

This summer I have pretty much been living off of watermelon and blueberries. I have been on this super restrictive diet, where anything highly acidic is out. That leaves about four fruits  I can chow down on! The title is very fitting for this card:) 

School started for us this past Wednesday, which has really put the week of kilter, but hey Friday is right around the corner!

A+ Card

Two Peas has a Saturday Card Sketch Challenge with Kimber, and I submitted this one for last week's challenge. School starts here this coming Wednesday, so I thought the topic was fitting:)

A Cardabilities Sketch

Cardabilities is having a just for fun sketch, so I decided to play along!

 

Birthday Cards

So they don't look like birthday cards, but I really wanted to personalize them for a couple of gal pals that had some birthdays this past month. When I use patterned paper for my base(which I have been loving lately), I will adhere a solid piece of paper in the inside so my writing shows up. Have a wonderful weekend!
 

Summer Stripey Cards

Rounding out the end of my summer cards. I am hoping if I start to make some fall themed cards, it will force the weather to cool down :)

I have a little  4 year old scrapping buddy now! She loves to make thank you cards...They are all over the house, it is fun finding them hidden.

Yellow and Blue For You

Two more summer cards on this Monday!
