Hi all!

    I'm here with a fun project to share with you today! Our family is OBSESSED with Disney and we recently took a trip to Disneyland where I made fun, custom Minnie Mouse headbands for me and my daughter! 

I wanted to create a fun little scrapbook page using one of the Stamp Anniething cuties and customize a little Minnie Mouse headband for her as well! I used Felicity - Hello. 

First, I hand drew a headband on her head using a Copic pen - just so I knew where to color and place her ears. I punched her ears out using a 3/4" hole punch and fussy cut them so they resembled ears. I added some clear Wink of Stella to give them some sparkle, too.

And of course she has a little Frappucino in hand because I love my coffee to make through a day at the parks - FOR SURE! LOL

 

I used a bunch of paper and embellishments from Simple Stories. It was so perfect and I have another page to add to our family vacation album!

I hope you will play along with us in our Monthly Theme Week! You can see and post all your projects in our Facebook Group HERE

I hope you all liked my project for today and thanks for visiting!
Have a great day!

Stamp Anniething: You're an A+ in my Book!

Hi friends!

It's Wednesday and I'm back with another new card for Stamp Anniething that I wanted to share with you today! It's 2 of my 3 kids' first week back at school (moms, I know you feel me on this when I say HAPPY DANCE! LOL). I wanted to create a card to celebrate back to school week!

I colored up this sweet little Abigail - A+ in my Book with my Copic Markers to match the patterned paper I had in mind for this project. I used a lot of the scraps I had from a paper pad from Echo Park - it came out so perfectly. I stamped off the sentiment and VOILA! My card was complete!

 

I hope you like the card I created for you today! Hope you have a wonderful week!

Stamp Anniething: Happy Birthday to You

Hi everyone!

It's Wednesday and time for a new card I created for Stamp Anniething! For my card today I colored up James - Happy Birthday to You!

This adorable James already comes with a fabulous sentiment so it's easy to create a very simple card! I used a couple of patterned paper sheets in my stash and VOILA! Super simple! I stamped James' glasses using the glasses that comes with the Megan - Glasses set. It is by far one of my most favorite accessories to use on any of my Stamp Anniething cuties!

I figured I would keep this card clean and simple to keep on hand for a little boy's birthday. I'm always in need of masculine cards! LOL

Thanks for stopping by today! Be sure to stop the Stamp Anniething blog for more fun! Have a wonderful week!

Quick Creations GDT: Make a Wish!

 Hi friends!

I've got a fun new card to share with you today as a Guest Design Team member for Quick Creations!

I'll be first to admit that LOVE La-La Land Crafts stamps yet I always forget to color them in my free time! But I couldn't resist creating a card using this adorable Birthday Clown Luka - isn't he just so ADORABLE?!

 

I colored Luka with my Copics to match this fabulous Birthday Wishes Boy 6x6 paper pad from Echo Park! Isn't it just so fun and perfect?! I just love how this 5.5x5.5 card came out! It's one of my recent favorites and I actually don't want to give it away! LOL

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Be sure to stop by the Quick Creations blog for more designs by the Design Team!

Have a wonderful weekend!

Stamp Anniething: You are my Sunshine!

Hi friends!

Summer vacation is winding down, but it didn't stop me from creating a fun, summer-themed card for my post today over at Stamp Anniething!

I colored up this adorable Lorraine - Sunshine with my Copics and cut her out with my Brother ScanNCut2! I used some simple patterns from a Fancy Pants 6x6 paper pad and punched out the cloud shapes using a cloud punch by Fiskars. The sentiment is from a retired stamp company, but this card would be great using a "Have a great summer" kind of stamp too!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! Be sure to check out my post over at Stamp Anniething too!

Have a wonderful week!

Our Family of Five...

It's been a while since I've talked about things other than cardmaking on my blog! I honestly don't have a good excuse except that life is busy and I barely have time to post anything other than about cards and crafts.

I want to try and change that though! LOL

[Maui for our 10 year wedding anniversary. September 2014]

Carl and I have been busy with work and juggling our work schedules to be there for the kids. Thankfully his job as an EMT and my job as a nurse, both working nights, affords us plenty of time to spend with our kids. I've even received comments from other parents at school saying that they thought I was a stay-at-home parent because I'm there so often! LOL

[one of our Christmas card photoshoot pics. December 2015]

These three sure have grown, haven't they? I really have no idea where the time went. J is now NINE. M is SEVEN. And L is THREE. Time surely flies when you're having fun (and when you're a busy mama like me! LOL).

J still loves all things Pokemon, video games, Minecraft, Lego, plain cheeseburgers, french fries and reading books. I can't keep up with his love for books and we have shelves FILLED with his favorites.

M loves Shopkins, Minecraft, Lego Friends, creating art projects, carbs (she thinks she a vegetarian *eyeroll*), pink, glitter, and playing with her friends.

L loves Paw Patrol, Blaze, the iPad, snacks not meals, and following his mommy around. LOL He's super articulate for his age, but he's hard to understand sometimes.

As a family we still love our family trips to Disneyland, going camping every summer, visiting the Monterey Bay Aquarium and eating at Vivolo's Chowder House (if ever you're in the area, this is a MUST!!!). We love get-togethers with friends, spending time with family, and yes, I still plan and create outrageous parties for the kids.

Posts about those coming soon!

Thanks for stopping by and checking us out today! Hope you're having a wonderful summery!

Here's what I created for you today!

 

 

 

For my first card I used the adorable Fairy Kittens made exclusively by The Paper Nest Dolls for Quick Creations! Isn't he so cute? I thought I would color him up more masculine and pair him up with some adorable Birthday Wishes paper from Echo Park! I know boys aren't particularly fond of kittens, but I'm sure that they will be after they see my card! :)

 

And on to my second project:

 

 

Here is another Quick Creations Exclusive by The Paper Nest Dolls! Her name is Fairy Emma and isn't she just the most adorable thing?! I thought I'd pair her up with Simple Stories Enchanted paper because they're just so PERFECT together, wouldn't you agree? I even just used a little cut out from the paper pad as my sentiment - which, by the way, leads me to some advice: use your scraps up, friends! You never know when they might come in handy

 

I hope you like my projects today! Now you can head over to Lameka's You Tube Channel and see what she has in store for you over there!

Here's my card!

 I just love Jessica's adorable poodle skirt! She looks like she's ready to go to a Sock Hop (isn't that what those were called in the '50's? LOL)... I decided to use my Copics and color her in pinks and reds and match her with some patterned paper from Stamps of Life. I kept it simple and left off the sentiment - Just in case I want to use this card for a birthday or Valentine's Day or just because! You're allowed to do that, you know. :)

Stamp Anniething August Release Day #1: Tess!

 

Hi and welcome to Day #1 of 

Stamp Anniething's August release!  

 

Let's do a sort of TIME warp dance with this release!

 

 

 

 

Meet 80s punk rocking Tess!!

 

Tess will be available in the store Friday along with the other 2 stamps we show you  this week!!

 

`~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Here's my card!

When I look at this adorable Tess, I just can't help but think of one of my favorite movies - School of Rock! I wanted to color her outfit like the navy blue uniforms in the movie, but I thought that would be too BLAH, I wanted her to be more PUNK ROCK! LOL So I colored her outfit with bright pinks. And although you may think that's pretty plain, I think it makes her really stand out - especially with the fun foiled paper I used for my card!

 

What do you think? Hope you like it!

 

Be sure to check out the Stamp Anniething blog for more fun inspiration from the design team! Come back tomorrow and see what we have in store for you next!
