My Chicka at 7 years old, a scrapbook LO

8 Comments crafting, scrapbooking, Uncategorized

By now she's actually closer to 8 than 7 (oh my flippin what? Did I just say that?!) but for some reason for me after she convinced me to cut her hair and she went into the second grade, after an admittedly rough start, she's started to really blossom. She's always had personality, she's always had a way about her that she knew what she wanted but this year she seems to be starting the...

9 Comments DIY, me, Uncategorized

I finally have a wreath that I LOVE that goes with my white tree :D All I had to do was make it but I wanted to do that anyway lol Michael's this year had WHITE wreaths and garland! I've only been wanting that for about 10 years! We're all coordinated now and its just perfect. I got the wreath at M's for 50% off a couple weeks or so ago then finally got the ornaments to go with it from Target....

Smile All Day Everyday

4 Comments card, card making, crafting, Uncategorized

It is day two of releases with our new sentiment sets! This might sound nerdy but I've never been one to let you think that I've thought of everything before hand. I really like how the "all day everyday" stamp can be paired with almost any other word to make a new sentiment. Its like "...in bed" joke, changes everything up! I paired up the sentiment from Everyday Smiles with Kimono Kaylee...

SWOON! New Sentiment sets from Some Odd Girl!

5 Comments card, card making, crafting, Uncategorized

Boy howdy, today's new release at Some Odd Girl is kinda a scary one since it veers from what the basis of Some Odd Girl is... but you know what? Scary is also exciting and I'm excited to see the reaction to these new sentiment sets. Don't be shy! Let me know what you think of them! I'm looking forward to getting some pics back now that PostalPix has an Android App and take these sets...

What I’m Thankful for…

7 Comments business, life, Uncategorized, wahm

With Thanksgiving tomorrow I get to spend time with my kids, hubs and family at the same time which really makes me reflect on what I'm Thankful for. This year I'm thankful for so many things but one thing very much stands out to me and has touched on everything I do on a daily basis. Also events around Facebook and blogland have really made me thankful for how lucky I am to get to be doing...

baby, its cold outside! Penguin card

6 Comments Uncategorized

This card kinda personifies what's been going on around here. Get the gloves and mittens on as its getting cold! Though for mid-November we've only seen snow flurries once and it didn't stick so yay! And why is it so ridiculously tough to find a boy's scarf? Its a must here in the winter and no one (finally found one at Old Navy) has any! Girls, a ton, boys, none. Photographing this card...
