Good Morning!

Yesterday was such a beautiful day. We played outside all day long! I bet I was suppose to mow the lawn! Oh well...

The card fronts I have posted today are Artist Trading Cards (ATC). I have put together a book and will post that later. You can trade these cards with others for fun (like baseball cards). This is a great way to get ideas. Also, if you need a quick card you can take one, use it for your card front, stamp your phrase on the inside and, whala, you have a card ready to go.

I made these during the Make n' Take at Creative Adventure last month. The ATC with the flower was made out of clear plastic using foil and rubber stamps. The foil comes in many different colors and was fun to use. No two turned out the same. The other ATC featured eyelets that work like brads, very cool, and rubber stamps. I really enjoyed the Make n' Take it was a great chance to try product I have not tried before. Thanks Heather!!!!

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!

Hi again-

These bookmarks are made using the BIG CLIP. I made them using SU's Polka Dots & Paisley stamp set. The punches I used are the Scallop, 1 3/8 & 1 1/4 circle. The SU Designer Series paper I used was the Polka Dot & Paisley print (this is no longer available). I used a glue dot to put everything together and added some ribbon.

These were the gifts I gave out to anyone signing up for the May Card Camp. Except....I forgot to give them out to the ladies that came on Saturday! Oooops!!! Anyway I have them for those of you that came on Saturday and will put them aside for you. Mark your calendars for the next card camp in August! See margin for details.

Have a great day and thanks for looking! Don't forget to leave a comment, so I know you were here! You'll never know who will get the next piece of blog candy!!!!

Tuesday...

Wow! It has been a whole week since I posted. I can not believe how time flies!

Sam is at Bitty Bears Basketball camp this morning, Grace and I are just hanging out. Sam LOVES basketball and he is actually pretty good at it. We are currently installing the Goalrilla Basketball System. When I say system, I mean SYSTEM! This thing is the industrial type. It is one of those that you cement in but, if you move you can take it with you. I am really not sure how I got talked into this purchase but there is no turning back now...the cement has been poured...lol. Anyway, we should have it all assembled by this weekend. I tell you my boy can hardily wait, he just goes out in the garage and sets by the cartons. Kind of like me waiting for the UPS guy to bring my new Stampin' Up! catalogs! LOL

By the way if any of you want a catalog, let me know it is almost time to pre-order them.

I have taken some pictures and will download them later today. I have been playing with my camera, the pictures I have taken in our basement seem to come out pink/peach, so I am playing around with that.

Stay tuned I will post some pictures later today...Thanks for stopping by!

This white pitcher was a find at my local dollar store. I added some SU rub-on's to it. What do you think????
