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.
