My Studio Digital Scrapbooking

Two words to describe "My Studio Digital Scrapbooking" by Stampin' Up.....LOVE IT! If you would like more information about how to order it, please let me know. I'm offering an incentive for all orders in October because I want everyone to appreciate how awesome this program is. Not just for scrapbookers, also card making and lots of projects at the tip of your fingers. (Even access Stampin' Up exclusive stamp sets, punches and embeleshments digitally.) Here is a project I threw together in 5 minutes...I saw these pictures today of Ashton (my daughter) with Grandma Judy, brought tears to my eyes as grandma will be forever missed. My goal is to make a scrapbook for each of the kids with pictures of them with Grandma....this would be something I would talk about, but never have time to complete. With "My Studio Digital Scrapbooking" this goal is going to become reality!!

Apple of My Eye

Teachers have a big job and I love showing them just how special they are! So, today I started working on my first day of school "teacher" gifts. I made some quick note cards with my cricut today, using Doodlecharms & Base Camp Cartridges. I even embossed the leaf with my cuttlebug using a swirl emboss folder. For an added touch I sponged around the apple to show off a little more dimension, hard to see in photo. I plan on putting these in an small apple basket with some school supplies and maybe some fresh apples. It is hard to believe school starts next week....I don't think I'm ready!

Something Sweet

I'm finally feeling like my self again, I've been sick for over a month and I think the doctor's finally have a handle of what is going on! Yeah! I'm excited that I don't have to have surgery right now, I'll know more in 4 weeks, but right now I'm enjoying getting back to being me!!

I've been wanting to make this milk carton tote for some time. I finally broke down and ordered the tutorial from Inking Idaho today http://www.inkingidaho.blogspot.com/ If you haven't done so already, I recommend it!

I kind of feel like a robot these days, just going through the emotions of life. This has been a very hard year for us and it doesn't seem to end.....to cheer myself up, I headed down to my craft room with a glass of wine and decided to try out my new Lots of Bots Stamp Set.

So In Love

Two cards I made today with my all time favorite In Line Color....Rich Razzleberry. What I love even more is the ribbon that coordinates, yummy! The new In Line Color Markers are fabulous...I've used them so much already, I could go on and on. Stampin' Up has really out done themselves this time. I just wish I had less going on this summer and more time to stamp!!!

Crazy Day

Today our babies turned 5, I can hardly believe it! Today has been filled with all kinds of fun stuff...we put up an above ground pool (Insert frustrated face), had big early morning breakfast with presents, spent the afternoon at McDonald's playland (due to rain) and now we are onto dinner and cake with family. Oh, I can't forget swimming in the new pool after dinner.....Brrrr!!! I'm sure it will be short lived be bring lots of smiles.

Due to the craziness of the day, the cards I made are cased from two splitcoast stampers, tomorrow when I have more time I will give credit. (Sorry) I just switched out either colors or stamp sets. The first one I plan on making with each of the new In Line Colors tomorrow, great way to show off our new colors and ribbon! Plus they were simple to make! Off to get the dinner out of the oven......

Happy Birthday Aiden and Adison!
