Happy 80th Birthday Mom and Danny!

On Saturday night, the whole family enjoyed an amazing dinner at C Restaurant to celebrate my mom's and father-in-law's 80th birthdays. We are so very blessed to have our whole family together for such a wonderful celebration. Below are the cards I made for mom and Danny. The one I made for my mom is one that I have made before inspired by a lady named Doris from Splitcoast Stampers. I just love the Eastern Blooms stamp set! The one for my father-in-law, Danny, is my own design inspired by a sketch from Mojo Monday. Thanks for stopping by.

Mini Christmas Chipboard/Acrylic Album

I had so much fun creating this little mini album. I used the My Little Yellow Bicycle Christmas album and paper kit and added a few of my own embellishments. This is the little album I worked on during our stay at the Pan. I think I'm hooked on these little projects. It's nice to be able to complete an entire project in one day! Thanks for stopping by.

Happy New Year!

Well, what a great year! I have been more creative than any other year I think due to this blogging hobby. It's great to be motivated and inspired by all my wonderful blogging buddies. I love and appreciate all your comments and want to take this opportunity to wish you and yours all the very best for another happy and healthy year! I can't wait to see what new wonderful projects you all come up with this year!

Here's a little slide show of how we spent our holidays this year. It was wonderful to have all the family together and I have to say the highlight for me was our stay at the Pan Pacific for New Years. It was a weekend full of good food, relaxation, family and I even got to scrap! I made a little mini Christmas album that I'll share with you all as soon as I take some photos of it. Thanks for stopping by! Hugs!

Another Christmas Gift

Just another little something for someone special embellished with my Stampin Up! supplies.

My Basic Grey Wassil Wreath

I cut these mitten die cuts out at POTP back in February and finally got around to making my Wassil wreath tonight to match my Karen Foster advent calendar that I made last for last Christmas lol

A Few More Handmade Christmas Gifts

I can't remember where I saw this ornament, but I can't take credit for it as I made a couple last year and loved them so much I wanted to make a few more as gifts this year. These ones are a little different, I added a couple of my own tweeks, the embossed scallop for example and glimmer mist.

Above is a little Post It Note holder and a festive bookmark for some holiday reading. I used all my Stampin Up! supplies for these projects.

Handmade Christmas Gifts

Here's a couple gifts I made for Christmas this year. I absolutely LOVE my new Stampin Up! bird punch!

The snowflake below is an ornament that I will tie some ribbon on so it can be hung on a tree or just as a decoration. I received this as a Secret Santa gift, our should I say, I stole this from Gina when we had our annual Secret Santa tradition at our Scrapaholics Crop (sorry Gina, I just had to have it! lol). It's the coolest stamp! You stamp the image several times and then cut out layers and pop dot them together creating a beautiful three dimensional image. I embossed mine and added a little glitter and bling.

This Year's Hallowe'en Layout I did at Timberline

This year, you and your friend Johanna decided to dress up as half boy and half girl. You designed your costumes entirely on your own. When I asked you what you guys were going to be, you simply responded "Goys". What a riot! lol

A Few More Layouts from Timberline

I loved Stacey Cohen's layout using the Fancy Pants Summer Soiree line and had to case her layout using the transparency and my dew drops. I can't get enough of these little dew drops! They're sooooo pretty and add that perfect little touch to any layout.

Some Christmas Cards...

I've been making Christmas cards and having fun with my Stampin Up supplies. As always love the way everything coordinates! Thanks for stopping by.
