Cards!

Here are some of the cards my mother and I made on Thursday. I have got to advertise better!
Anyways most of them came out cute. There were two that were ok but not great(sorry I am not posting those). Stay tuned for my latest pages, hopefully I will be able to finish them tomarrow. I am actually going to have pictures on the workshop pages this month.

Oh I have finally figured out how to get good pics of my cards. I have a scanner, duh HEIDI.







Kaia even got in on the act. She made some beautiful cards. I'll have to find her cards and post them later.

Just after I started my blog I decided I wanted to design my own backgrounds and add a unique touch to my blogs. The coolest site I found for FREE software is Shabby Princess. My background for my personal blog is made with their newest FREEBIE. Here is layout I did today with the "Happy Go Lucky" pack. It has a great western theme to it.

$5 Thursdays

The other day my mother mentioned that she needs a stash of cards and needs to use up her supply of scrapbooking paper. So I am going to have a $5 Thursday every month. You bring the paper(from your stash) you would like to use, adhesive of your choice, paper cutter, and tools(if you like). I will supply blank cards, scrap paper, and the card patterns. You are welcome to use my scrapbooking tools, stamps and stamppads.

My first $5 Thursday will be next week on April 9th. The party will run from 6pm to 9pm, so come when you can.

Look for coming details on my April workshop.

Craft Room

The other day I was cleaning my craft/office room and I happened to read Jullie's blog about how she was painting and organizing her office and her daughters room. I had been thinking about painting my room for awhile now and I took inspiration in her work.

My scrapbooking table was full of scrapbooking supplies, so much that I barely have room to scrapbook. So I gave my husband a big task of making an organizer for all my scrapbooking stuff (to get it off the table where I can access everything without making a mess). And my husband came through to my suprise and I didn't even have to wait one week. I guess it helps that he has nothing better to do.

The white walls have been bugging me since we moved in. So I decided to paint the room. Ty insisted the office had to be green. He read somewhere that the color green influences your thoughts towards money. So I painted it green(a better green than my living room).

Here is the finished project.


Hopefully it will stay this clean and organized.

Late February Workshop

Here are my cards for my February Workshop. I kind of got behind when my husband was gone and now I am just catching up. Hope you enjoy. All use the That's Amore paper pack, I added some tulip CS to one card. Sorry these are so small, I tried uploading them to photobucket a zillion times because they kept showing up huge. Now that they are small I am going to stick with the ones I have.
