Here is a winter scrapbook page....

Good morning!
Here is the winter scrapbook page that we did at my class last Saturday.
I love the Silver Glimmer paper.
Aren't these snwoflakes are just beautiful, using last years snowflake die (retired) with it!
 I used Sahara Sand for the 12x12 pages along with Midnight Muse & Very Vanilla.
 I think that this page was many of the ladies favorite!

WOW!
Yesterday was a crappy day.
Lately everything is breaking & going wrong around our home.
Last week it was our central air conditioner & our vehicle.
Yesterday I went to get my hair cut & when I got home I discovered that our 
washing machine drain hose line broke & 20 gallon of water ended up 
all over our laminate floor.
The repair man was here right away & fixed my washing machine.
And I called our insurance guy.
Deke & I spent several hours cleaning up the water.
We have fans still blowing on the floor & hoping it will be ok.
I know deep down it isn't going to be.
It is going to have to be replaced.

We had a late night selling hogs.
Thankfully it was cool out and they sorted & loaded good.

Today I have the twins for awhile & I'm getting my spare room ready for 
my best friend from HS to come stay with us tonight.
She lives in Minnesota & is back for our class reunion we have tomorrow night.
I'm looking forward to seeing her & catching up!
She will be joining our family at the races tonight watching Nathan.

Gotta run!!
I hope you have a WONDERFUL Wednesday!
Happy Stamping!
Hugs!

A BBQ scrapbook page....

Good morning!
Here is another page that we did on Saturday.
I don't do much punch art as I don't want to take the time to do it.
But I love the looks of punch art creations.
So-
I did a google search for a summer/BBQ page & these are some of the ideas that popped up.
I sure think it's cute!

Grass- 'Inspired By Nature' (retired)
cs:  Real Red, Crushed Curry, Basic Black & Whisper White
ink:  Wild Wasabi
supplies:  1 3/4" circle punch, word window punch, XL tag punch (retired), 1/2" circle punch, small punch out of Itty Bitty Punch Pack, Big Shot, Alphabet set (retired), Crushed Curry ribbon (retired), Buttons (retired), hemp (retired) 
And check out the grill a little closer.....
I am off to get my hair cut this morning.
Manda & the twins are going too, as Manda is also getting her hair cut.
Then I'm headed home to be a farmer.
We sell 2 loads of hogs tonight, so it will be a late night on the farm with Deke.
Hope it isn't too hot out.

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
Happy Stamping!

New Possibilities for the Clearance Items.....

YIPEE....you can now order from the clearance rack on a workshop order!!!  See the below post from SU!

June 28, 2013
Until now, clearance items have been limited to demonstrator and online orders to ensure that product was available at the time of purchase. When the Hostess Code was introduced, it became possible to add clearance items and to have them included on workshop orders. To make it even easier to add clearance items to any type of order, we have lifted the ban on placing clearance items on workshop orders.

Here is another scrapbook layout!

Woo Hoo!!!
Today is the day!
My big annual scrapbooking class is finally here!!
I have several ladies coming to join me at our home for the day to scrap.
I have 20 awesome pages (10- 2 page spreads) created for them to re-create.
They will go home with completed pages to add their photos to.

The page that I posted yesterday is probably my favorite one.
(Although I do like them all!!)
And this page is probably a super close 2nd to being my favorite.
 Flags (or banners) as some people call them are really popular now.
And I love them on cards.
And I've used alot of them on several of the pages I created for this scrapbooking class.

'Feel Goods'
cs:  Sahara Sand, Island Indigo, Pool Party  & Tangerine Tango
dp:  2013 Sale-a-bration pkg.
supplies:  Big Shot, Tasteful Trim Bigz XL die, Circles Framelits, Window Framelits, dimensionals, Paper Snip
ribbon:  2013 Sale-a-bration ribbon

Gotta run....I need to get my coffee going & get busy cooking the food for today too.
We will be having walking tacos, crispix bars, watermelon & more.
The tables are all set up & I have all of projects out on them.
 I am just about ready for everyone when they get here.
I'm gonna have a fun day......hope you do too!

Have a SUPER Saturday!
Happy Scrappin'!
Hugs!

A Christmas Scrapbook page.......

Good morning!
Here is a quick post......
I'm sharing with you today one of the scrapbook spreads that those coming to my class on Saturday will be making!
I really like it.....love the color combination & layout.
Last night was a late night racing.
Nathan did good though.
He finished a super close 2nd in his heat race & a close 3rd in the main!
He had the crowd standing up & cheering!
The boys had fun & were all really good.

I'll be cutting more card stock every spare minute I have today.
The twins will be here- so I will get to enjoy them too.

I hope you have a great Thursday!
Happy Stamping!

Woo HOO! It is a 'HAPPY DAY' FOR DAWN!!

Good morning!
Woo HOO!
This is the card that I created & sent to my downline Dawn Klein!
I am SO EXCITED for her!
She has had an awesome year with her Stampin' Up! business & she earned the 
Get-a-Way Trip to San Diego in September.
This is a HUGE accomplishment!
AND I'm so proud of her!
She will be going with me to convention in a few weeks.
I'm so looking forward to spending 5 days in Salt Lake City, Utah, with Dawn
& my other downline (Lorraine, Andrea & Cindy) 
& side-lines (Lynda & Hanna) that will be going too!
 'Happy Day'

I got alot of card stock cut yesterday!
I have 14 of the 20 pages completely created & cut.
I still have 4 of the left to create & 6 of them then to cut.
I hope to get some more creating & cutting done today.
I have to work on my convention presentation though & get things sent to Donna- 
so that is high on my priority list to do today too.

Tonight we will be off to the races in Osky to cheer on Nathan!
I wish him loads of luck!
He has been on a roll!
So I'm looking forward to spending the evening with Manda & all 3 of my boys!

Nathan was on KBOE radio Race Show last night for an hour & we enjoyed listening to him talk about his 12 years of racing.

Here is a sneak peek.......

Here is a sneak peek at some of the pages I've been creating for my 
upcoming annual scrapbooking class that I have on Saturday!
I have several ladies coming to our home to spend the day scrappin' with me 
& I can't wait!

With my coffee cup in my hand, I'm headed back out to my studio now to create a few more pages & then start the cutting process.
 
Tonight I'm a farmer & will be helping Deke.
We sell hogs, but are not sure what time we load yet, as it is gonna be a hot one today!
Hopefully it will cool down nicely, so that it is bearable for us to mark, sort & load them & for the piggies on their ride, so that we don't loose any of them.

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!
Happy Stamping!
(Or guess I should say- Happy Scrappin' this week!)
Hugs!
