One for Maddie, One for Adam

Just a couple more layouts to share. One of Maddie and one of Adam this time. Was in the mood for some fun bright papers.

This one is the October Afternoon Cherry Hill papers. I got the neat Artisan diecut thingy at Michaels..it was some Clearance Bridal place cards but they work perfect for journaling!


This one is Sass Lass goodies. They never disappoint. Throw in some Thickers and a Fancy Pants journaling page from their cute notebooks and its done.

Disney on Ice!

Im excited! Look whats coming to the area in September and guess who has tickets? Can not wait! Maddie and i are going to head out while Johns at work and Adams in school. They would rather not tag along anyway. Should be a fun girls day

I Love Vera

Vera Bradley that is. I had sold my only tote awhile back just cause i wanted something new and hadnt purchased another Vera yet. Well a bag anyway. Ive purchased a few all in one wristlets which i love for my wallets. So since i have one to match this bag already i finally decided to get one. So this is my new purchase. Cant wait to cram all of my junk in there! Did i ever mention i LOVE green?

A New Page

A new page just for fun. Love the new Sass Lass Me Likey collection. Fun bright colors which i love!

Family Vintage Mini Book

I got it in my head yesterday that i wanted to find a project kit to work on. Preferrably a mini book so i began the big hunt and it was not proving very productive. Couldnt find anything for the longest time. So i finally came across this blog http://withthislifeiwilllive.blogspot.com/ and i fell in love with the Family Vintage book. Of course i then realize she is teaching it for a class all the way on the opposite coast of me in California. So after all that searching i came up with something i couldnt have. I liked it so much though i almost jokingly emailed her and asked if i could buy and class spot and have the kit shipped to me. To my surprise she emailed me back and said yes! There was ONE spot left. I knew it was meant to be then and i would have this gorgeous mini book kit to create with. I cannot wait to get this little goodie. Its beautiful!
Just look at her creation! more pics on her blog

American Crafts

So these are my official entries i sent in for the DT call. I have been faithfully sending them my work every year for some time. haha. Hopefully they will like it this year. Love this company! Dont think i could live without Thickers!

So cute!

I just adore shoe shopping even if its not for me. So as soon as they arrive Maddie will be sporting some really cute shoes i ordered from Zappos. Anyone who knows her knows she is obsessed with Elmo. So i couldnt resist these little cuties.



And if you know me you know i am a lover of anything green so she of course had to get these also..especially since they were the last pair in her size.



Overall a succesfull shopping experience!
