Busy, busy, busy

Well I did get to create a little this week, but I'll wait till I finish the second half of the project to share on here. I have been extremely busy the last couple weeks. Happily I have been subbing a lot at the school thanks to end of the year meetings and testing. I LOVE being in the classroom with the kids and in a lot of cases going back and getting to see them again! I finally feel like I'm getting to know the staff at a few schools and I love it when then remember me! It makes me feel excepted! Other then working I have been riding, getting ready for motorcycle events and getting ready for my brother's wedding this weekend. I am getting excited to get dressed up in my pretty new dress and shoes and have my hair and makeup done. I never get gussied up let alone wear a dress! I'll share pictures when I can. I helped with some little details of the wedding which was just enough. I'll share that later too. I want to take pictures of the final product.

Today is my chapter of the red knights annual dinner at americade! I love seeing some familiar faces from convention and spending time with my amazing family. I'm sure I'll have pictures of that to share too. I guess I'm either excited or just used to getting up at 6 am (seeing that I'm writing at 6am). I hope that this finds you well! I promise pictures to come! Enjoy your day!

June stamp club card #1

Well today I sat down after a long of working outside and started putting together the first card for my card class. It's funny how sometimes you get an idea and you still surprise yourself. I knew when I was ordering I wanted to show the ladies our pearl paint and how great it is. I used it in two ways on this card the first I painted a wood badge button with pearl paint tinted with Creme brûlée reinker. Then I used pearl paint and Creme brûlée and water in our spray pen to make my own glimmer mist.
Supplies used:
Florentine paper pack x7153B
Family love D1506
Just for you B1398
Wood badge buttons Z1703
Color ready seam binding ribbon Z1732

Super Secret Project #2

Well here it is super secret project number two.  A close "family" member went to prom yesterday and I made her a special 8x8 album for her photos.  She had asked for us to be there on her special day so I decided the an album would be a wonderful thank you.  I took special care to make sure the papers would match her dress as best as I could with some help from a local blogger Danielle Flanders.  She suggested this beautiful paper line from pinkpaislee called Spring jubilee.  She even set me some that she had already and as soon as I saw it in person I had to have more.  So I ordered a paper pack and some embellishments from twopeasinabucket.com.  My first purchase with them it was awesome!! So I played with my cricut and the paper, seam binding a cardstock and this album came together.  I'm pretty proud.

A thinking of you card

I have been making think of you cards because I'm the head of my motorcycle group's sunshine committee. This is just one I made recently. My second card I cheated a bit I had a card that said "grateful for you" I didn't really like it anymore so I stamped "thinking of you" on Creme brûlée card stock with outdoor denim ink and cut around it and adhered it to the card over grateful for you. I like it much better now.

Super secret project number 1

Well my super secret project I have been working on this past week was a special gift a custom scrapbook for my future sister in law. I wasn't sure what she was doing for a wedding album because she has a friend of the family doing the photos and I figured she at the very least she can just put in her favorite photos from her special day.

May Stamp club cards

I'm always trying to come up with something new and fun for my stamp club to do. I saw this stamp set and Close to my heart did these really cute layouts using it 1 boy, 1 girl. This typically boy set becomes girly with a color scheme change and some bling. Of course it always helps that I loved this set since I opened the catalog and thought it would be adorable for my nephew. After making these cards I think it's just as great for girls especially those "tomboys", but I'm pretty sure any girl would love these cards. I started off with just plain 12x12 Kraft colored paper. I diecut it on my cricut using one of the card shaped on art philosophy (that I changed to be your standard size 4-1/4x5-1/2inch card. I then took the bone border stamp from the "roar" stamp set and stamped it multiple times in colonial white ink the I stamped my dinosaur in Pear ink(boy) or Smoothie ink (girl) and the sentiment in sunset (boy) or black (girl). My next thing I did was border the colonial white cardstock with Dutch blue (boy) or Tulips (girls). I then hand dyed the white embroidery thread with sunset ink and hand dyed white seam binding with smoothie ink. Add a button and your done. They came out pretty cute.
