Yesterday was a busy day with the kids.  It was a hot & muggy afternoon, but we played outside anyways.  Deke got the yard mowed before he left for his night meeting, so when the kids went home I worked in the yard for about 2 hours- pulling weeds.  I still have LOTS to do in it, but it looks better than it did.  I then came in & burnt the midnight oil stamping!

This morning I'm up early & gonna work on stamping stuff before the kids get here.  I'll spend my day with the 3 little ones.  And then we have a ballgame to go tonight.   I'll be burning the midnight oil stamping when we get home.

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!

'A Little Wild' treats!

Look at these adorable little treats made with the 'A Little Wild' stamp set!  I am not sure which is cuter- the bear or the elephant.  They are both adorable!

My dear demonstrator friend Sharon McNeely made these for everyone that attended my Spring Fling last month.  Wow- such a great treat & nice surprise for me & all of my customers that attended too!
They all hard little rolo candies in them!  

She cute them out with the coordinating Little Loves Framelits! 
++++++++++
Yesterday I spent the day at home, except for going up to Deke's parents for a few minutes yesterday morning to say 'good-bye' to our Pennsylvania family that was here & headed back to their home.  

I worked on stamping stuff all day/night.  In the afternoon, Manda came out to bring my Mother' day gift & we stamped for a couple of hours- creating & cutting invitations for Trey's birthday party!  Nathan stopped down last night & brought my Mother's Day card & flowers.

Deke is off early to chore this morning & head to the office for his weekly board meeting.  I'm off to walk & then head to town.  I'll take the twins to school & then spend my day with the 3 little ones.  Deke has another meeting tonight- so when the kids go home I'll be burning the midnight oil stamping!

I hope you have a MARVELOUS Monday!
Happy Stamping!

WOW- the NEW 2018-2020 In Colors!!

Oh wow- here is a card I made for a class last week to show off the NEW 20180-2020 In Colors!!  

This card has something old & something new both used on it!

The layout is a weave that my demonstrator friend LeeAnn shared.  When I saw the layout I knew then that I was going to use it with the New In Colors. And I sure think this card turned out so cute!

This layout is a great way to use up your 1/2" scraps!  Are you a saver or a thrower?  If you are a saver- you are set to go!  If you are a thrower, you'll just have to cut some 1/2" strips to weave!
The 'Stylized Birthday' stamp set here is RETIRING!  It is a single stamp!  And it is such a great stamp!  I have used it alot & I'll miss it!  It was my "go to stamp" when I needed a larger birthday font.

The stars came from the 'Confetti Celebration' stamp set & it is RETIRING too!  I also used the words from this stamp set in the inside of the card too.  Again- this is a favorite stamp set of mine that I'll miss.  I have sure used it alot over the years! 

The stitching along the In Color strips I did was super easy!  I just used my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker and free handed it. 

So which is your favorite NEW In Color?  I like them all!  I am honestly probably the most excited though about the Blueberry Bushel, as we really need a blue card stock like this!
  • Call Me Clover- green
  • Blueberry Bushel- blue
  • Pineapple Punch- yellow
  • Grapefruit Grove- peach
  • Lovely Lipstick-red
Here are the supplies & the measurments that I used-
 
stamp set:  'Stylized Birthday' & 'Confetti Celebration'- BOTH are RETIRING!
card stock:
  • Grapefruit Grove- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2- fold in half for card base- NEW
  • Grapefruit Grove- 1/2 x 5 1/2" strip- NEW
  • Call Me Clover- 1/2 x 5 1/2" strip- NEW
  • Blueberry Bushel- 1/2 x 5 1/2" strip-NEW
  • Pineapple Punch- 1/2 x 5 1/2" strip- NEW
  • Lovely Lipstick- 1/2 x 5 1/2" strip- NEW
  • Basic Black- 5 1/8 x 3 7/8"

Yesterday was a busy day!!  It started out with all 6 kids!  We made it to school, just as the first bell was ringing.  I then came home & spent my day with the 3 little ones.  The weather was chilly, wet & windy- so we didn't get to play outside much.  We did go out for a bit in the afternoon & had my niece, Stephanie, her husband, Chris & their 2 kids- Katie & Henry, here to visit & play with the boys.  It was WONDERFUL to get to see them, as we hadn't seen them for almost a whole year, as they live in Pennsylvania. 

Manda picked up her 3 boys after she got off of work.  And we had Masen & Ainslee here for the evening with us.  After we took the kids home I picked up toys, answered a few emails , did my post & called it a night.  

This morning we are up early & off for a busy day!!  I'm cooking food & getting ready to head out the door to my sister Beckie's.  We are having a Mother's Day brunch with my side of the family this morning.  We are also squeezing in a couple of soccer games too.  Then tonight we will have supper with Deke's family, so we can all get to see some of our Pennsylvania family that is here visiting.  

I hope you have a SPECIAL Saturday!!
Happy Stamping!

This morning we are all up early & headed out.  Deke is off to chore & head to an early meeting.  Manda & Nathan both have early meetings too- so I'll have all 6 kids- bright & early this morning.  I'll feed them all breakfast & then take the 3 big boys to school.  I'll bring the 3 little ones home with me to spend our day together.  My nieces are back in Iowa from Pennsylvania for the weekend, so they are coming down to visit this morning so that the kids can play outside.  I'm looking forward to seeing them & getting to visit.

Tonight I have Masen & Ainlee.  And I have lots of stamping to get done.  So we'll see how it all goes.

I hope you have a FABULOUS Friday!!
Happy Stamping!

This morning I'm headed to town to get the boys, take them to school & then spend my day again with the 3 little ones.  The 3 big boys will be here after school.

Yesterday was a busy day with the kids.  I went to an old employee's visitation last night.  And was then headed to the races, but didn't make it that far.  Due to the storms we had, the races were cancelled for last night.  So I went home & waited for Deke to get back with the truck/trailer/race car.  And we went to Osky to do a night deposit & get a few things at Walmart.  I worked on sorting orders & doing bookwork for awhile when we got home.

This morning I'm up & headed out to pick up the boys.  I'll take the twins to school & spend my day with the 3 little ones.  Tonight the 3 big boys will ride the bus here.  When everyone is gone I'll be working on stamping stuff all night. 

I hope you have a great Thursday!!
Happy Stamping!
