Want to know why I haven't stamped...

I'll show you.






You think we've got enough stuffed animals? They had all been out for a "sleep parade." They were lined up from one end of the living room to the other - all supposed to be asleep. And then after our nap, we certainly had the giggles. LeeAnna didn't want her picture taken. But, oh well. :) Ha!

Aunt Bee has been a busy lady. But I've got some banners that I can't wait to show you, and hope to work on some cards and things this weekend. :)

Have a great day!

Hi...

Just letting you know that I'm still alive. Granted, it doesn't seem like that some days.

I wanted to post a card that I just made! (yes!!) I made it for Kristina's Color Challenge 12. I gotta say - she is one talented gal. I am just happy that I had a few minutes to do something with my stuff. Of course, after I sat down, I didn't know what I wanted to do.

The colors this week are Sahara Sand, So Saffron, Wild Wasabi, and Whisper White.

Sorry I've been quiet. I've been keeping my friend's little girl this summer 4 days a week. So, the weekends are when I have time to sit down and do things. And don't expect much next week, since it is VBS week, and I've still got things to do. (And I don't like the feeling of that much unfinished business.)

I'm going to go work on some banners. I'm surprised that this didn't end up covered in glitter. I know I've been covered in it for the last couple of days. (Esp. since I spilt my new brown glitter all in my lap last night...) *ha*

Happy Stampin'! :)

woah...

I'm really sorry. I can't believe that it has really been since February since I sat down and did a little post for you. I've been supremely busy - but I guess that is really no excuse. (or maybe it is?)

Lots of things have been going on. But the best news is that there are only 9 more days of school! WOW!! And I still have a whole lot to cover with these babies. A whole lot more...
Today was field day, broke out and wore a pair of shorts! And let me tell you - you could spot my big ol' white legs across the football field. LOL!! Some of my kids were in the mood to whine today - so I had to hear crying at each event. Joy. *NOT!!*

I really wish that I had some new cards or scrapbook pages, or *something* to show you. But I don't. I really wish that I did. I made a REALLY cute card for my Nana for mother's day, but I forgot to take a picture of it. But you would have been so proud to see that I actually do remember how to stamp.

I am really tired right now, but my plan is to stamp TOMORROW!!! And so maybe - just maybe - there will be something new to show you. Maybe I'll dream up something awesome!!

ETA: Hey!

I don't think I ever put my flamingo page online for you to see. So, there. Sorry it looks a little crooked. I had trouble getting it to stand up for the picture.

a lot going on...

I have a lot going on right now with work and all, so the stamping has slacked. I am working on gathering up some blog treats to share with you, so check back for more information on that. :) Here are a few other projects that I made not long ago. I thought that you might need a little brandy tidbit. *hehe*

I new stamps on the way - so look for new things soon!

This is a swing/flip-flop card that I made. Polka dots and glitter. What could be better?



I certainly love the little western flair! This was a smaller sized card. Large and small star punches. And stars are my favorite shape.



well - stars and of course - polka-dots! :)

a card or two...

So, this card I whipped up this morning, while I was (still am) doing laundry. This is for Sketch Challenge 161 over at Splitcoast. I really like the sketch challenges. I had some new things sitting, (since I haven't had much time to stamp lately) and so I thought that I *needed* to stamp this morning. It was important to my health. (that's what I say anyway... at least my mental health...)


This card I made to send to Stampin' Up. They were collecting submissions for display stampers for convention, and I really, really wanted to apply with my submissions. But I wasn't able to get my things mailed, even though I had made them in plenty of time. I'll post the other 2 cards and scrapbook layouts a little later. I'm still a little disappointed with myself. But I guess I could still send a few things in. I never know what might happen.

I *NEED* to go outside and take some pictures of MY NEW CAR!!! It is certainly a monumental deal! I had my hooptie little blazer, and I traded her in for a hot tamale tahoe! :) It has been so rainy lately that I need to rinse her off before I take some pictures. So - look for that soon...
(yes, I cried driving off the lot - because I had my little blazer for almost 7 years. You gals will understand getting attached... or at least Mom will...)

I'll post some more things later... I need to go munch. :) hehe!
