Quilt Giveaway!!

Elizabeth Cranmer is giving away the most beautiful quilt. I had to share the opportunity with you, even though it just adds more names to the pot. I adore this quilt!

My Guys

Just thought I'd share a few pictures of what keeps me going, going, going.
My oldest, Josh, is a senoir this year. This Friday will be his last home football game :(

Chrisrtopher is in 4th grade and plays for the citys Pop Warner League. His team is also purple and gold like Joshs and he's also #7. His team is number 1 in their division, and the championship game is this Sat!!

Bradley is 14 and this is his freshman year. He didn't want to play football this year. He's our babseball player. This is after winning the city championship last year in 8th grade. He plays ball during the summer too.

Thank God winter is coming...it's my only break from bleacher butt!!

Better Late Than Never

Sorry it's taken so long to post a couple cards I made with the card candy. My life has been nothing but work, and football.

I've been busy with last minute baby shower prep too. I'd love to show you the cute things I've done but my sister DOES read this blog. Or at least she did the day I posted her shower invitations! Little brat! Oh wait...she's 6 months preggers...BIG brat!!

Halloween/Autumn Card Candy

This yummy card candy is for yet another swap that I joined! I really like the way they turned out. I'll have to make some extra for myself!

Cuttlebug Blog Challenge

This card is for a challenge at Nildas Cuttlebug BLOG. Her first challenge was to Ink it up!
I inked up the snowflake side of my cuttlebug folder with Bashful Blue and ran it through my little green machine. I used the same layout as the invites in the previous post and added some red rhinestones for the "sparkle".

I'm back!

It sure doesn't feel like it's been that long since I posted....but it has been forever!!

I have been busy working on my sisters baby shower. I finally finished her invitations!! All 84 of them!! I completely changed my mind from the last post about her invites. She found out she's having a girl (YEAH) so I designed the invites to match the crib bedding she picked out.
I used Papertrey Blush and Chocolate Brown, and also used the polkadot color match ribbon on some of them. I ordered 15 yrds of ribbon but that only got me through half of the invitations. I ran to three different stores trying to find a similar ribbon. I found the brown satin ribbon at Walmart and actually like it better than the polka dotted ribbon. I had all the info printed up at Kinkos in dark brown ink on white paper.
I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE how they turned out! They're so her style!

HER BEDDING (super cute!)
