Happy Mail!!

Wow did I get some Happy Mail Saturday. My blogger friend in Florida since me such a great package. I can't wait to use those stamps. I'm just love that frog stamp. (I think frogs, should be the next trend) She also made a cute card with Sassafrass Lass Paper. Thanks MaryAngella!!


We finally got the tree up this weekend. We put it up Saturday and now my house feels all Christmassy. All I need to do now is watch White Christmas then I'll be completely ready for Christmas except for the Christmas Shopping, presents and wrapping.

Gigi put the first ornament on the tree and Lexi did the last one. Lexi's out consist of Halloween Shirt and Valentine's PJ Pants. I think she's so cute with her own since of style.

I also did get scrappy this weekend too!! I got a few cards and LO done.



Well I gotta run and make Lexi some Lunch!!
Love and Hugs!!

Cards cards cards

Yep...I'm making cards. Here's a few I made the other night. I hope you like them. They were pretty simple, but I'm getting lots of use out of my cuttlebug!!



This last one was the easiest but it looks really pretty to me. Well I'm off to make some more cards. I wish I could send everyone one but I don't have enough paper. :)

Oh when you write out your cards this year please fill an extra one out for a recovering solider. Gigi wanted to make a card for each solider in our military this year...she's such a sweetie. Lexi doesn't care as long as she gets to play with ink and stamps, she pretty easy. I just adore my girls.

Tony's Buns!!

Who would like some of Tony's buns??? He picked these up for our Thanksgiving Dinner...He commented how he had the coolest buns there. I love my dorky hubby. :)


We had a great time on Thanksgiving with Tony's brothers and their families. We had good food, conversations, and football. The best part was that all of our kids get along and played well together.

This week I haven't been to crafty but I did get a couple things done.

I did this LO for the 52 sketches Challenge:


I did this card for Sketchy Saturday:

Lastly I did this for Never Been Kissed (It's not my best card ever but I was tired last night):


I did all three projects with the same papers...Yep..I used my scraps. I do get a lot of papers and scrap papers. :)

Have a great day!!
Love and Hugs!!

Happy Early Turkey Day!!!

I've been quite scrappy lately with one of my friends. We been scrapping at our own homes but never the less we've been scrapping. We are challenge junkies right now. We have been doing all kinds of challenges. It's been fun! Here is some recent LOs:



Thanks for stopping by!! I've got some cards to make. :)

BRRRRR

It's cold outside, we have our first snow storm of the year. We got about 3 inches last night and might get another 2 inches today. This afternoon once I pick Gigi up from school we will probably have a major snow fightball fight. I foresee me being very cold and wet, with 2 little happy girls whom won a major snow fight.

Yesterday my girls started coloring Butterflies for this cause. The want to send in a few butterflies for the children that passed away during the Holocaust.

This week I was really scrappy. I did 9 LOs, I completed most them for the NoelMignon Harvest Crop. Here's one of them. If you wanna see the rest, just click on my Flickr Gallery.


On last thing, there is a huge give away here. Go fill out a comment and good luck!!

Indian Summer.....

is officially over!! I know you all are sad too. Except those that live in Sunny Florida!! :)

With the ending of Indian Summer...comes the beginning of Winter. Even though the calender says it's not Winter, we all know it really is!!! Here's some signs I use to recognize the beginning of this very cold season.

1. The temperature (brrrrr)
2. The smell of wood stoves burning
3. You break out the Hot Chocolate (with lots of marshmallows)
4. You bust out all the thick sweaters and turtlenecks
5. You pack away your precious flip flops...for fear of frost bite
6. The sky turns gray...and the sun doesn't shine as much
7. You take off your toes rings...in fear of losing them in your house socks.
8. You think about making chili (when hubby's not home)
9. You start seeing snow flakes in you local forecast
10. Lastly, you actually start seeing snow!!!!

This time of year we start staying inside a lot because there aren't as many fun activities to do. I'm fine with that because we will spend some great quality time together.


I made this LO for the Online crop at NoelMignon. You should stop by and check it out!! They have lots of fun challenges as well as fun games.

Also, there is a new site up called Never Been Kissed Scrappers. It's cute, fun, and new...you should sign up there and tell them..I sent you. ;)

Love and Hugs!!

slow weekend!!

This weekend we've done nothing but, it was welled needed. Part of the reason for do nothing is that I'm not feeling well. I finally caught that cold I've been fighting. Also, Tony wanted family time Saturday night. So we all hung out together and watched movies.

Yesterday I did manage to create some LOs. I did them for different contest. My friend and I both joined ScrapJazz and we are doing their November challenges. I think we only have 1 left to do.

This LO was for the 52 sketches challenge blog and Scrap Whispers challenge. Yep I doubled dipped. :)

I did this for the Scrap Jazz November sketch and Scrap Schemes Blog. It turned out cute...but it seems slightly plain to me. Yep...I double dipped again.

I did this one for fun. I wanted to scrap these pictures of Lexi. I think there are more LOs of Gigi in my books so I adding more of Lexi. I try to make it even.

Lastly Gigi scrapped yesterday too!! She was showing off her work.

If you have any other great challenges let me know. I'm always looking for fun stuff to do. :)

Also today while your out in blogger world...stop by my new friend's MaryAngella friend's page Jennifer and leave her some love and hugs!

Love and Hugs!!
