Crafting fun!

So finally I had some time to get some crafting done. I have even had a chance to figure out my gypsy a little bit! These cards are ones I made for my son's birthday back at the end of april. i used the new Robotz cartridge, which I love!! These were copied almost exactly from the inside of the cartridge handbook, but I think they are really cute!

I also did some goody bags. I will post pics of them tomorrow. I know, amazing that I would post 2 days in a row!! We'll all believe it when we see it, right?

Last of four

I work a four on 5 off rotation, and tonight is my last of four - my favorite shift of the work week :) Sadly it is National Scrapbook Day and many of my favorite bloggers have busy days of crafting planned, and I will miss it all. Oh well - the job pays for all the crafting supplies, doesn't it?

The card I am posting today, was actaully designed by my DD. It was a card for her little friend who lives up near our cottage. The stamps are MFT and the paper is SU. She picked the image, what she wanted it to say, and then colored it. I thought it was so cute!

Gotta get ready for work.

Work = no crafting...

I had a bust day at work today. Ended up being in charge - ugh! not part of the plan, but it went OK. I brought my new SU summer mini, and was planning to look at it. No time - not even an extra minute to look at my new mini :(

Hopefully tomorrow night I will be able to get some work done on the invites for my in-laws party. Should really get them to my SIL by Sunday. Really, my 4 days on mean I have no hope of crafting. On the plus side, I went for a run after work.

2 days in a row!!

So, I am pretty proud of myself. Blogging 2 days in a row. Yay me!! Today was calm and mostly quiet. DD and I went to visit an old friend and her new baby. We even found a dress for me to wear to my inlaws 50th anniv. All in all a success... no crafting though, and I still have 15 more invites to do for the anniversary... how do I get myself into these things?? I guess I need to get cracking.

Today I am sharing some money holders I mad at Christmas time. Only one actually held mosey, the other 2 held tickets and a gift card. They were fun and very easy to make. I found a tutorial on You Tube created by a SU demo named Dawn. It was really easy to follow! The stamps are SU on all of them, and the paper is CTMH.

Back to work in the morning - ugh!!

April?? Seriously?

Really?? April? I may be the worst blogger in the world. 3 months between posts, and for no reason!! What can you do? I have bought/ recieved some wonderful crafting things. I got some great cartridges, and a new scoring board - martha stewart... love it so far! It has scor marks EVERY 8th of an inch... awesome! Though a bit dizzying, honestly :)

My sons 8th birthday was yesterday, all related pics are still on my camera, so None to show today. Instead I will post a few pics from by daughters 4th birthday, back in February. These were all quick and fun projects to make - well except for the cake, we won't talk about that ;)

The little goody bags using Hello Kitty Greetings.

The Abby Cadabby birthday cake I made - we won't discuss how much work was involved :)


The inside of the card I made for DD - stamps from CTMH...

The front of the card I made for DD - I love Hello Kitty Greetings!! The stamp is also from CTMH - can't remember what it's called, but it's a great stamp set with cupcakes. I love it!!

So, that's it for today. I'll try to be back again soo, to post some more things that I have created.

How did it get to be Feb 21st??

Where does the time go? Here we are, mid-late February and I have been no better about blogging - what can you do??

Here are 2 of the cards I made for Christmas this year. I love them both in their own way. I have no idea why the dear uploaded sideways, but unless I can figure out how to rotate it, there it will stay!

I am trying to do a bit more crafting, as I am able. I love it and jsut don't get the time. Last night I did a couple of cards - sympathy cards, unfortunately - and a thank you card. I will take some pics and get them posted.

Family funeral tomorrow.
