Cards Galore!!!!!

Well.....It's been a while since I have posted any projects that I have been working on lately, so I thought I would share them with you finally! I have been more interested in creating cards lately and I think the reason behind it is because I love making something for someone that is handmade!       (oh and to use up some scraps!)
Happy Card Looking :-)





This is a Birthday card I made for a co-worker.
I found the layout from freshlymadesketches.blogspot.com



Here's a card I made for my husband for our 7th Anniversary.



This is one of 3 cards I made for "Grandparent's Day" (9/11/11)
These were made for my children's Grandparents.
(Sorry it's so blurry)



Here is another Birthday card I made for different co-worker.
This card was created with "Basic Grey's Sweat Threads" collection.



This card was made for the same co-worker above who just recently had her baby boy!
This card was created using "My Minds Eye Lime Twist" Collection

 
This is a "Thinking of You" card that was made for my wonderful
sister-in-law after her Grandmother passed away.
This was also made using "Basic Grey's Sweat Threads" collection.
Check out her blog also at myscrapsofmemories.blogspot.com





And I saved the best for last......
I was told last week that I should try to find a stamp and start
signing the back of my cards. So while I was garage saling one Saturday
I happened to find a "Handmade by" stamp! And guess how much I spent for it.....50 cents!!!! 
I was so proud of myself!!! What a great deal! It's like it fell right into my hands!


I did make a few other cards, but unfortunately didn't get photo's of them. I am so bummed and I guess I learned my lesson.  :-)
Anyhow, I hope you enjoyed the cards.
Thanks for looking!

1st Grade

Hi Everyone,

I know it's been a long time since I have posted anything, so I wanted to quick post some picture's of Sadie's first couple day's of 1st Grade! As always, she was super excited to get to school Tuesday AM! Sadie's teacher's name is Mrs. Aubart and we are so excited for Sadie to have her as her 1st Grade teacher! Tuesday morning I was lucky enough to be able to go into work at 9am, so I brought Sadie to her 1st day of school so I could take some pictures.

I will be doing a layout soon of her first couple day's of school, but for now, here are a few!



 First Day of 1st Grade!!
  

  




Second Day of 1st Grade-Getting on the Bus!!!!!

On Sadie's second day of 1st grade, I brought Sadie to the bus stop so I could get some more pictures of her on her way to school.

  


I am happy to say that I am a proud mother of a 1st grader and a 9th grader! But unfortunately, my 9th grader isn't allowing me to take any photo's of him on his way to school. Maybe I'll sneak one in someday :-)

Thanks for looking!
