I'm......Back!!!

Well I got the hint.......GOT THE HINT  (letting my baby girl know I got her hint to post more ofen).......so I thought I would share some of my beginner cards...

and as you can see....no die cuts.. I was into buttons and flowers....

this one was made using large (and I mean large) stamp from SU.... (which a sweet friend gave to me...Thanks Lori) I embossed it and cut it out... cutting off the second flower and pop-dotting it to a script embossed base and of course I added the so called "famous" skittles..I colored with a red tombow marker.....I was into stamping (which my DD got my into)

see more stamping, beads and ribbon and the card below is stamped (CTMH) and I used oil pastals 

that you would rub on wax paper then use a q-tip and color the image..

Anyway....it is now 11:45 and I got to get to bed...going to visit the little guys tomorrow

and its a 2hr drive and I have to be there BEFORE  11:00 (my son-dada has a dentist appt) and I'm going to watch the two boys :)                                                                                     

   So til then................                                                                                                           

Boy......Oh Boy......

What a blogger I am......luv visiting other blogs...but do I visit my own???? ( can you tell by the date how often I do) ............

Well here I am.....just thought I would stop by and post a few pics of baby cards I did (some time ago..I must add)

and of course had to do one for a boy too......

and the next two  I thought came out pretty cute (if I do say so myself).....

here is one I made for my beautiful daughter, she needed a card for a baby shower and wanted me to use this ribbon....

 the ribbon is cloth and much more colorful then the pic shows...(does that make sense?)
who knows.....
And now that I'm ready to publish this post I noticed in the preview I didn't post pic of the insides of the cards (see what happens when I try to do something after midnite)
anyway.....  until then.................. 

How Awesome.....

I had visitors....how nice of you to stop by to check out my place...(I have to visit more often too :)  after all it is my place)  .....

Oh....... I went to the scrapbook expo with my niece on Friday...we had a great time and we got to pick up some of those Promarkers, thats buzzing around a few blogs...also picked some Japanese vellum paper(beautiful!) and bling of all colors shapes and sizes can you believe it for only ,99cents each, rolls of adhesive tape...also the sizzix booth demo Tim Holtz new toy...an electric die and embossing machine (meaning like the big shot/cuttlebug)...it even cuts and embosses metal!!! like butter...just with a touch of your finger (well... you had to hold down the button til it passes through).....

Did I mentioned I had a B-day??? (why would I....just to let you know I'm getting deeper into the senior citizen bracket...but not close enough to collect SS :( still have to wait another year).... but I did receive phone calls from my beautiful children, big hugs from my grandchildren...just luving it..is all I can say....
anyway......until  then
