A Message For My One True Love :)



Hi Everyone!!!! I ditched ya again! haha! but I'm on a mission!!!! wanna know what my mission is? yes! you say! OKkkk...I'm trying to go to the Stampin up convention this year, so I am trying to sell everything possible :) ..my quilts included :) so I'm trying to get my quilts binded today for my garage sale on Sunday :)...and since I'm home alone tonight. My kids ditched me and my darling husband had to work today...and it's my anniversary!!!! so poop! ...so instead I am blogging my Friday Funny pictures and a picture of me and the hubby..Don't you just love the photo-bomb of Eewok!!!!!!! ...OK so this is probably where you want to stop reading if you don't like mushy stuff ;) ..it's a message for my hubby...so here goes...
Tim, words can't begin to describe how I feel about you but I will try....I have loved you from the first time I met you and as the years have gone by I have come to be even more IN love with you..I never want to be without you. I have so much fun with you and I absolutely love talking to you...I know we have had some tough times, mainly because I'm a control freak and never feel I'm wrong ;) ...but even after putting up with so much of my poop you still love ME and you never go without telling me how much you love me and only you would encourage me to buy whatever my heart desires and offer to hold the packages..Only you would hear my complaining that we can't afford something I really wanted and say hey I can get another job (that would be job #3)....at the same time telling me ... "What is it you want, Mandy? What do you want? You want the moon? Just say the word and I'll throw a lasso around it and pull it down" .....and mean it :) :) ..I know that you give yourself constantly to me and never really complain but I promise to be better..I'm not supposed to get worse every year but better for you, because YOU deserve it and there's no need for any less for me to give to you...I've never been treated like a Princess by you..hell no! I've always been treated like a QUEEN!!! and I know it and I am so very grateful!!! not many girls find guys like you..I believe your one in a million!!!! how I got so lucky I have know idea!!!! As we get older together I can't say I love you enough or hold you enough but bye GOLLY I sure as heck am going to try!!!! I love you baby so much!!! I can't wait to look up into your eyes and tell you this in person and walk with you hand in hand ...thank you for always being there for me!!! I'll LOVE YOU FOREVER! Happy Anniversary!!!!!! 
Thank You!!!! Come Again!!!!

Feb Card Class #3 ..Amazing :)




Hi Everyone!!! OK so I was exhausted when I came home from my sew day yesterday..I'm getting so old that when I have a busy day I fall asleep at 8:00! so I'm sorry but I have my Friday Funny today LOL! ....the triplets are so awesome that I have about 5,000 pictures of them (no joke) teehee...the bottom picture is to funny! because Kat is crazy to be next to Rocks butt!!! but I assure you that this sleeping position only lasted about 5 minutes because by then Kat realized that it wasn't a smart move at ALL! haha...LOVE THEM! :) the second picture is typical of Kat always sleeping on Bones face or head..what a brat! :) and the picture of Rocks with his dad that makes me smile because they both adore each other :)... OK OK the card ...I love the Chevron embossing die #127749..I always try to use it for class..the stamps are Need For Speed #122717 and the sentiment is Amazing Family #129192..the tags are from the Framelits Dies, Hearts A Flutter #130159...DSP Parker's Patterns #131021 ..the last 3 are from the new mini!

Swallowtail :)




Hi Everyone!!!!! I LOVE this new butterfly stamp from SU called Swallowtail #129216 ...it's absolutely gorgeous! I just wanted to get a feel for it today so I made this simple card ..I cut out the image and added dimensionals to the middle popped up the wings and wow what a difference, so cool! I also used my new embossing folder called Fancy Fan #127751...I wanted something fun in the inside so because I just wanted to play I thought it was a fitting sentiment :) ...well I have a whole new mess of product to put away so I guess I'll be rearranging and getting rid of more stuff ..O boy! so I hope you have a fantastic day! I have some cute Friday Funny pictures to show you tomorrow but first I will be sewing with friends so it will be later in the afternoon before I post :) ...
Thank You!!!!! Come Again!!!!!

Tissue Paper Fun :)



Hi Everyone!!!!! I had so much fun using the Mojo Monday sketch!!! this card will be number 2 for my Card Class in two weeks. I wanted something bright but some dark added and I love this color combo, Poppy Parade, Soft Suede and Pool Party...the strip of DSP is Everyday Enchantment ...I also wanted to use tissue paper that I had left over from my daughter's birthday paper..so the flower and butterfly are fragile but I like it...the brads in the middle are the only things not SU and the brad in the flower is a blue but it looks white in this picture..I don't know why my Ipad doesn't take better pictures, maybe it is operator error but still :) .....I hope you have a fantastic day! 
Thank You!!! Come Again!!!!!

Still In Love With Butterflies and Birds + The Triplets






Hi Everyone!!!! It's Friday Funny time and holy cow! it's February 1st! I made this purse using Becky Roberts tutorial but just a little plea if you don't have an SU consultant please consider me :) I have a website that you can order from at your convenience and right now SU has a special on some digital discs $1.00 each! but you can only get these disc's from my Website and they have a LOT of clearance items...so back to the purse I think it's our California weather right now, it's totally perfect, crisp air but sunny! so I have birds and butterflies still on the brain and by now my class is used to using both A LOT :) ...luckily they still like coming every month haha....everything is SU..I really liked the idea of candy and a gift card inside but the skies the limit...of course I had to show pictures of the triplets...sleeping :) O how cute they are! the picture of Rocks reminds me a lot of when they shipped Superman to the states and stuck him in that ship..(teehee)...I haven't seen that movie in years so I could be imagining something completely different but hey it's my brain that thinks I'm right and I know what I'm talking about but when it's written down or talked out loud I start to wonder if  maybe I'm NOT right (shock)! ...so just go with it ;0) ...well my family and I are off to go eat dinner in Monterey yumm!!! so I will see ya all tomorrow 
Thank You!!!! Come Again!!!!
