I’ve been playing!

Here are the cards I made while playing up in my craft room today. I’ve got to decide which of the birthday cards I’m going to make for the card club I’m in. I must say that the more I use those Cuttlebug embossing folders, the more I {heart} them!!!

Easy Altered Band-Aid Tins

Altered Recipe Tin

My friend Kristine was kind enough to take pictures of the recipe tin I made her for Christmas. I made a few of these and they all turned out great, if I may say so myself. These are so fun to make and look great sitting out on the counter in your kitchen. [...]

Mini albums

I don’t know what my problem is, but I seem to love making cards and mini albums and projects like that. What I have a hard time with is scrapbooking for my albums. My daughter is 9 months old and I haven’t scrapped a single page for her! My son is almost [...]

Oh, how I love my children!

Last night for dinner, I served ravioli with pasta sauce. Yes, the EXACT SAME dinner I served my son when he told me I was a “bad cooker”. The SAME meal he described as “disgusting” a week ago received rave reviews last night. I believe he said it was the best meal [...]
