I made some pages






























I decided it was time to get some crafty stuff back on my blog, that it was way past time. This is a mixture of Stampin Up stuff and some regular scrappy stuff. I need to start using more of my stash and get the endless pile of paper in my books and off the shelf. I also have a TON of premade pages from swaps and stamp clubs and classes that are calling for some pictures to be added to them.

The Halloween pages are of Mitchell, my only kid trick or treating this year. Yes I did cry...my babies are all going in different directions. Even Mitch noticed and missed the others.

The Christmas page is of one of my older sons Steven, he is usually gone and never in our tree decorating pics. He doesn't really get into like he did when he was little. I was lucky to get these pics AND he's smiling. Such a handsome guy.

Thanks for looking today. Have a great Labor Day.

Sept. 1st!!! It's here


There is nothing better then the release of new products (at least to me) and this new holiday mini from Stampin Up is amazing. Just when I think they can't get any better they do and I am LOVING everything. I will be putting this in my sidebar and when you click on it you will be able to see all the new fun things they have inside.

One thing I LOVE is the new spider wed embossing folder. I know Cuddle Bug has had one but Stampin Ups embossing folders are larger( they still fit in the Cuddle Bug, I have one) and the designs go all the way to the ends which is a huge plus. If you are a Halloween nut like I am then be sure to see the beginning of the catalog, starting on page 6, because they have a crazy cute set that I got a week ago. As a demonstrator we get to order a month earlier and we get an amazing discount.

In the back of the catalog there are these new Letter Press plates that I ordered last night (being a convention attendee we got a special deal) I can't wait until they come and I can play around with them and see what they are all about. My son has told me he would help me do a video so be on the lookout for that and I will feature the new letterpress plates on a project.

I do not have my demo website hooked up but please if anyone sees something they really want then by all means leave me a note here and it only takes seconds to activate it. PLUS if you place an order for $30.00 I will give you the new raven lace trim on pg 8 for free. This lace will look so cute and spooky on our Halloween pages and cards.

Have a great day everyone and thanks for visiting my blog.
