Cinco De Mayo Birthday Boy

Kyle's birthday is today and I made him this card while he was out this morning.   I'm hoping he has a great day all the way around.

   The margarita glass is from a Unity stamp I recently got the "When life gives you limes …" that I couldn't wait to use.   The Relax is from Verve stamp set named coincidentally relax ;)   And "it's your day" is from a studio g $1 stamp from Michaels.

Baby Shower Pop Up Card

 

Over the holidays we got the great news that my sister and law was expecting!    If it's a girl I made this card to send them.    And as luck would have it it's going to be a girl.    The popup is from Cricut's Everyday Popup Card cartridge.     I'm loving the designs but not quite sure how to decorate the front of them?    I'm still trying to figure out a good way to have something nice and simple on the front that easily ties right into the main event, the inside.   I finally gave it to her this weekend at her shower.  

Baby Shower Crafting

 

My Sister in law is expecting and her shower was yesterday.   The top is from tags I made that went on each jar of bath salts my mom put together as party favors (Unity stamp) and the bottom are the thank you cards (using cricut) I made for my sister in law to send out.   Cute huh?    

Happy St. Patty's Day

XOXO Pixel 2011

It's taken forever to get a picture of my little prince and myself together.   This Christmas we at got a few.   Here's the layout I put together for his album.   I love the way it turned out!!!

Rain or Shine

I just got this stamp from itty bitty Unity called "rain or shine".   OMG I love it!!!   And I love the cards I've made with it.    Can't wait to give one to my sweetie for Valentines Day.

Christmas Cards 2011

Quick Christmas Card

I ran out of cards to send out this year and ran out of time to make more of the ones I had put together earlier in the year. So I whipped these up. Simple with a little holiday sparkle.

Yet Another Birthday Card

Hot Air Balloons

I recently got the everyday pop up cards cricut cartridge. I love so many of the selections, but since I've been in a big hot air balloon motif lately I decided to make this one first.   The top one is the pop-up card version, the bottom is the hot air balloon alone.      I think they are just so cute.   Love them.    The sentiment on the second one is from echo park -  dots and stripes elements.

Kauai

A couple weeks ago we got back from a wonderful trip to Kauai. I want to remember this trip and I also have been wanting to play with creating a calendar, so I created these 5x7 months for 2012. I'm still figuring out the best way to print them that I'll be happy with.

Life is sweeter ....

From the Unity March 2010 KOM. I really love the bubble gum dispenser stamp! I made a few others last weekend, but had an extra sentiment that I'd stamped so I wanted to make one to match. I coupled the stamp with paper scraps from one of my favorite paper packs.
 

Life is Sweeter - Unity Stamps

I recently ordered some Unity stamps and these are from the March 2010 KOM. I'm loving them and can't wait to keep stamping!

Have a Beachin Birthday

When I saw this stamp in the June 2011 Unity kit I had to have it. I debated and went back and forth and then there was a sale! So I jumped on it and got a couple sets and a few individual stamps. I love the kits I got. Here is the first card I made with one of the stamps and it was for my Mom's birthday. Inside reads "Have a beachin birthday". I'm in love with this stamp in particular, and can't wait to keep playing with the whole set.

Baby Bee Onesie

It's been a while since I made a onesie card and when I found out a good friend was expecting I really wanted to make one to say congrats!

A Day At The Zoo

   A few weeks ago I was lucky enough to take the afternoon off and spend it with a few of my favorite people.   My sister in law was visiting with two of my nieces and my brand new nephew.    We went to the SF Zoo for the day and it was really a lot of fun to spend it with the kids.   They ran around all day and loved looking at all the animals.   It was such a blast.   Of course I brought my camera along and and took a ton of photos of the day.    Which I thought would go well in a mini album.   I haven't done one in a while, but I love doing them since they usually come together quicker than regular pages and are just so cute when complete.    Here's the complete album.     I'm loving it!

Happy Anniversary 5yrs Married

Yesterday my husband and I celebrated our 5yr wedding anniversary. Here is the card I made him for the occasion.

You brighten my day

Some butterflies and a nice sentiment. Simple and sweet.
