ABC Block Christmas Tree

How cute is this!? I made this this afternoon when the kiddos were napping. Very easy and a nice relaxing way to spend the afternoon. No brain power involved. Thinking of making a few more for family Christmas presents. They are just too cute not to! My friend Michele Glenn gave me the idea. You can find everything at Michaels, Hobby Lobby and Target (the blocks).

November Calendar

This was last month's ladies night. It was at my house and since I was the hostess (with the mostest!) I had the pressure of making calendar. Here is the calendar page I made for November.

Close up please! This was simple but a fun calendar page using the Designer Series Papers from the Holiday Mini Catalog! Love it!

Christmas Card

I love this new hostess set-Deer Friends! And the new designer series papers that Stampin Up! introduced in the Holiday Mini Catalog. Check out the cute card I made for our ladies card night this Thursday-lots of punching out but so cute!

Teeny Bopper!

Okay, so my sister is officially a teeny bopper (13 today to be exact!) and so I just had to make her this card for her birthday-'cause she rocks! My oldest daughter calls her "rockstar Jana" that is how totally cool she is!

I love the new Chunky glitter! I glittered the eyes and bow-so cute!

Baby Shower Thank yous

I made a few thank yous for my friends baby shower. Very simple, but I think she liked 'em.

Projects for Today

Happy Labor Day everyone! Well I have been laboring over a few projects of my own in my basement listening to the wind whip through and the rain tiptoeing on my windows all afternoon. What a perfect afternoon to scrap! I made a card using one of my new stamp sets-Party Hearty

And then when I went to turn over my calendar to September I realized I do not have anything there! Uh-oh! Where did it go? I have no idea, but if anyone has ever seen my scrap space they know as well as I that I just may never find it-so I made another one.

Projects projects and more projects!

I have just been a busy little bee trying to get a few samples made for my open house next week and I also came up with the card that I am going to do for our card swap group. Our challenge for the month is to make a card that isn't a rectangle, so this is what I cam eup with-oh and the theme is birthday. I saw a card on another site that was simalar, so I just modified and made it mine!

Then as I was making that one the big shot die that I used sort of reminded me of a big cowboy belt buckle so I made this little quickie

And I loved the plate that I made for my mom so much that I made another one to display at my open house. Maybe if people like them I will do a class-

And finally-I made a little bookmark that is similar to those we made at convention this year, but I just used different colors and designer series paper-I think this will be one of my open house projects-nice and simple.
