October's 1st Card Class Card :) (Say that a few times fast) ;)





Hi Everyone!!! This card is so out of the box for me but after I was done I loved how it turned out! so my class will be making it in Oct. I also wanted to share the triplets since I haven't done that in awhile..if you follow them on Instagram than you will have already seen these pictures but don't they just make you smile..they make my day...love these guys! I also was asked about my hand tattoo, since you can see it in my YouTube videos but my hand is always moving so they asked to see a still picture..I love her so dang much!!! and I knew when she was cast as Maleficent that I wanted her on my body forever and ever LOL!! I got my wish :) ..It was done in March way before the movie came out but when I went to the first showing I absolutely LOVED THE MOVIE! and her even more :) ....So that's it for today..I'm off to sew :) have an awesome day!!!
 Thank You!!!! Come Again!!!!

A Wagon & Butterflies :)


Hi Everyone!!!! I decided to use a PL card and sew..this was fun to make :) ..I also used the sketch from Sketch Saturday ..this card IRL is so bright :) ..since I have been PLing so much and trying to have Sunday be a sew only day..it has been a little crazy..I truly miss reading so I finally added that back into my life and found a few new authors and now I'm hooked on another series, so I find myself trying to find 5 minutes and read read read..loving it! ..I always say how fortunate that I am to have an amazing husband who takes such good care of me, where my hardest decisions are should I make a card, sew or PL ..I can't thank him enough and know that I am one of the lucky one's ..thank you honey and I love you so very much...
I hope you like the card! have a great day!!!
Thank You!!! Come Again!!!!

Project Life Weekly Aug 11-17



Hi Everyone!!!! I can totally tell it's Tuesday because I'm sharing my PL weekly spread :) and I took these pictures under my set up for my YouTube videos and wow! what a difference! don't you think?? they came out so pretty..I think I can safely say we eat pretty good :) and if you are ever in Northern California we have the best sandwich place called Ike's..super duper fantastic!! always get their signature bread (Dutch Crust) and the Dirty Sauce..I'm drooling now..yummmmm! I used the Little Moments SU PL card collection kit..This is my tribute to the shocking news of Robin Williams death..These 3 movies are our favorites of his..Hopefully he has found peace...I also decided since I have some random photos laying around of my kids being goofy, that I will add one once in awhile..why not, it's my album LOL! do what you want ..no rules are needed or wanted..right!...Have a great day!!!

Fishy.... :)


Hi Everyone!!! I have set for myself a goal and that is every Sunday is now my sew day! I have found that I have been PLing so much that I haven't been quilting since May and that is not good..I need to use my fabric and my sewing desk has a layer of dust..Umm oops! so maybe that says that my cleaning duties have also been absent LOL! ..Last week is when I decided and I did it! I went into my sewing room and had so much fun! I loved it! I set myself a goal to get in there by 12:00..so that leaves me the morning to PL a little or make a card..and truth be told, play on the internet :) ..I have exactly 30 mins before I will go in there...so maybe I should clean up my mess from making this card ..The sketch is from Sketch Saturday ..I loved how it came out..I want to buy season passes for the Monterey Bay Aquarium so I had that on the brain :) ..I joined a group on FB and it is called Project Life Bucket List Documented..you are supposed to make a bucket list for 20 little things you want to do in a years time and PL your adventures and those season passes are on my BL..hopefully I can get them in the next month or two :) .. I love PL just in case you didn't know that by now LOL! ..in fact my son turns 16 on the 24th of this month and I have already PLed to his 6th birthday..I'm going to stop there and start on my daughter's, she's 21 but turns 22 in Dec so it will be fun to start hers too :) (sheesh, I'm just gabbing away aren't I) anyways I don't want to get burned out so I have done a bunch of different albums right now and having such a BLAST doing them..to see people at my son's birthday party and saying ..wow, I didn't know I was friends with these people has been quite fun LOL!!!! OK, enough chit chat..have a great day!!!!!
Thank You!!! Come Again!!!!

I don't have a busy life so I just take pictures of what we ate or what I baked...simple stuff :) ..heck you could easily take pictures of flowers and it would all be fun..so play!!! I did use some items from my "stash" because I can't get enough of Washi and Wood Veneers ..I thought the Love sentiment was perfect for my upside down bullies :) ..all of the bully pictures have been on Instagram since they have their own account..just hit that pretty Instagram picture on the top left and it will take you straight to them :) ..the PL kit I used was Everyday Adventure #135298 & #135301..if you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask :) have a great day!!

Weekly Project Life July 28th-Aug3rd



Hi Everyone!!! I love Project Life!! I have said that every week and every week when I am done with my layout I feel so happy. I have never been one to have a diary, mainly because I have always sucked at writing and grammar (who knew) ;) ..so this is my weekly diary for my grandchildren to see in the future. I love printing out my pictures at home every week and just taking the time to find the perfect embellishments. The layout is 99% Stampin Up and the rest is from my "stash" ..I just love it!!! I will be making a YouTube video showing you my album, just for a little inspiration if you so choose :) ..I used Playground for this layout. I did want to incorporate this line because some people don't have kids and I wanted to show you how versatile all the SU PL lines are, the school bus made me laugh because when I took the picture of the triplets I felt the were lined up so perfectly..just like waiting for the bus to arrive :) .....we bought some cupcakes and two of them had an apple as a decoration..well the apple PL card I felt was perfect! I did forget the arrow on the apple card :( ..I will be adding that asap :) ..Have a great day!!!
