My entry for Loves Rubberstamps Challenge

I saw a video on Youtube about a great site called Loves Rubberstamping Challenge blog.  I went and checked out the site and decided I wanted to enter their challenge this week which is "your fave color combo".   Lately I have been really liking yellow and white, I have done several pronects with this color combo and decided to try it while making a card.  So here is my entry.....I used MFT Pure Innocence Daisy stamp, some leftover MME 6x6 paper, IAR flowers, and some Recollections bling.  

Altered Bird House

Finally posting a project!!! I made this cute little birdhouse with the Prima Divine paper pad, Prima Rondelle collection fkowers, a fabric doily, and some Tattered Angels Pink Cadillac Glimmer Mist.  The roof is actually strips that I punched out using an EK Success scallop border punch. I inked the edges of all of the papers and the sides of the birdhouse with Distress Marker in Stormy Sky.  The birdhouse itself is from Michaels, it is made of the MDF board.  The feather on the top came from the kid's craft section at Michaels as well. I am fully embracing this whole Shabby Chic style now :) i have the birdhouse in my scrapbook room on top of a silver pillar candle holder, and it looks great! Cant wait to play with the other birdhouses I have!

Hello....................I'm back!!!!!!!

Hello everyone, so alot has happened since my first and only blog entry here.  I ended up going back to school for Early Childhood Education and just finished my first semester back.  I have to give myself a pat on the back because I ended up having to go back full time and walked out at the end of the semester with a 3.91 GPA! So proud of myself, juggling the girls and all of their activities, a full class schedule, observation hours, and some side work. It was a juggling act at times, but totally worth it, especially since i will be graduating next June!

Ok, so enough about me :) the girls are doing amazing. Kenzie is now a year old and starting to walk. Kyleigh is finishing up the 2nd grade and then will be starting cheerleading during the summer.  These girls are what gets me through my days, they are my life, my inspiration...my past, present, and future :) ♡

I am still posting videos on Youtube, although I sometimes think that Kenzie takes over the camera!  I decided to take the summer off from school so I am hoping to get a lot of great projects done.  My "to do" list is growing by the day!  Well that is it for now, I promise I wont
go on another hiatus this time around!

Welcome!!

Hello all! So I have finally decided to attempt to keep up with a blog for all of my scrapbooking and card making.  A few months ago I started making videos on YouTube showcasing some of my latest creations. And since I entered the wonderful world of YouTube I also was introduced to some really spectacular stamp companies and paper companies that I have been stalking their blogs and channels getting new ideas and inspiration from. I keep seeing all these other fantastic artists entering these great challenges offered by fellow scrappers and stampers and some of these stamp companies as well. Since in order to enter many of these challenges, one needs a blog to present these creations on I decided to start one!! So that is that, and this is my new blog :)  I am hoping to be able to keep up with it and keep up with all of these exciting challenges as well. I am still a SAHM to 2 beautiful girls, Kyleigh (7yr old) and Kenzie (6months old). I am debating going back to school for Education and finish my degree. I am currently a licensed practical nurse, but the hours just aren't working out with my child care that I have at the moment, which is not much since Kenzie is still nursing and pretty much attached to me throughout the day and night. These girls are what inspires me and makes me want to create! Sitting with Kyleigh in the scrapbook room and creating projects with her, or having her look at some of my creations and using them as inspiration for her own creations is what fuels me! I am truly blessed with these beautiful children!! Ok, enough sappy stuff I know, I am off to go and find some challenges to enter and work on!!!!
