Puppy Notes

Good morning. I thought I would give the "fur" technique a try on this furry little guy called With Love...Bella. I think it turned out pretty good for my first try. I might of blended it a little too much but you can still see it a bit.

Over all the design of this did not turn out like I had originally pictured in my head.  Still I did get some time in the stamping room so I am happy. The kitchen counters and back splash are complete, yea! I just need to get some photo's posted soon. So be on the look out for those. Thanks for stopping by!

Dracula Boo...

This little guy is for my sweet nephew's Halloween card. This is Count Dracula Noah isn't he just darling? My sister will appreciate this cute guy. He was batman last year not sure what he plans to be this year. So much fun when they are young. 

Count Noah was a new digi to me that I bought a few weeks back and finally got to use. He is colored with various Copic markers and then die cut with a basic circle die and layered onto a scalloped circle. This fence is a retired one from Whiff of Joy that is a halloween fence die cut that I think I have used a few times. Some faux stitching around the edge and my little pumpkin candy bag that I stamped off a House Mouse and popped onto the card. Voila! 

Tying the Knot at Power Poppy

Happy Friday and some wedded bliss to Mrs. Marcy! That is right our beautiful and talented leader, friend and mom is getting married tomorrow. We are all so very excited for Marcy and Doug and have a fun little hop to share with you. 

I have a special note for the new couple to be. Congratulations you guys! This is so very exciting, wish I could be there to celebrate with you all. The best advice I can give is to keep God first in your marriage, Ecclesiastes 4:12  says: Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not easily broken. I truly believe that if you keep God first you will truly be blessed beyond your dreams. Many blessings and happy years ahead for you all. Woot Woot!!!

My wedding card to you is using Dream wedding and a little different than the normal wedding card. This paper was my color inspiration to use with the blues and pinks. I had to use a little bit of blue as its my favorite. Besides isn't a wedding suppose to have something blue in it? hee hee Die cut the images after they were colored with Copic markers and layered onto a matching decorative die. Added some flourished pearls behind the image panel. A little bit of sparkle to the pink champagne  :-)  and then my sentiment on a strip of vellum and pearls to tie it off. Voila!  Happy wedding day Marcy!

Locker hangers

Morning. You just have to love football season! The team mom puts out a list for the Parents to sign up to decorate the lockers of each player the night before the games. You know I always sign up and this year I actually took a picture of what I am putting up on their lockers. They always include candy of some sort since that is what the kids like most about the decorations. ha ha  Walking down the hallway is pretty cool though when you see everyone's locker. Here are the twins hangers and now I need to finish up the other players and get them ready. 

These pennants are from an old Spellbinders die set and ODBD Large Numbers die set. After I did these I thought second about die cutting all the pennants but you only live once as they say.  :-)  No sparkles the boys said, but the stickers were cleared they said. ha ha  I used a helmet I found in photo shop and enlarged it with the sentence for the team we are playing tomorrow. Then colored part of the helmet piece to make it more our colors. A few sequins and voila.  

Chunky ho ho ho

These snowman are too fun and so chubby. This is Ho ho ho Snowmen from Sassy Cheryl's and one of my new snowman for the year. Usually I buy 2-3 new snowman stamps each year but this year I went with a digi for the first one.  Haven't found my other new ones yet. 

Easy peasy design with just a Spellbinders frame and a heart die cut border. A few die cut snowflakes and sparkles to finish if off. Voila! 

Thinking of you

Good morning. Finally had a few hours in the stamp room this weekend which was awesome! So I will have a few posts this week.  :-)

Here is another one of the new stamps I bought from Whimsy called You Moove me. Isn't he so cute. I colored him with various Copic markers and yes, a little too heavy on the purple for the bell as it bleed over a little. EEK. A few die cuts for the grass and the picket fence. Some sparkle to finish it off. Voila! 

Crazy busy this week, our new kitchen counter and back splash is getting installed. ACK!!! I am so stinking happy its finally here. The kitchen is a wreck but once it is complete I will share pictures. Thanks for stopping by.

Welcome 2017 Football Season

Let's get ready for some FOOTBALL!!!!  Woot Woot!!! What a showing we had last night for the first 2B league game for our Liberty Team. This was quite the game and WIN... Yes Win for our Liberty Boys. They won with a 52-8 ending score. This is our lineup of players with the twins #10 and #55, Normally 10 and 6 but Nathan had to fill in for another player that was out this game. 

Curtis had quite an impressive start for his Sophomore year as QB, with 2 thrown touchdown passes and 2 run in touchdowns himself. GASP!!!  It was so exciting. Nathan had several plays that were extremely helpful for our running backs himself. Both made the news reel last night.  😍  Ofcourse I am not on any social media other than my blog, so the Facebook posts, twitter and instagram feeds that I am seeing are through everyone else. Guess I will have to join them all today. HA HA!!! Kidding.... We will be getting the paper tomorrow to have as a keep sake with all the teams accomplishments on the field tonight. A team effort and such a great way to start the season. We are so proud of you all... especially the twins.  Happy Saturday everyone!
