Random Things that make me Smile

I don't even have pictures for this layout yet,
but I just had to make something totally girly, and awesome!
I just love these colors together, and how fun is the zebra print ribbon!!! OH YEAH
With this layout, it is all about the textures!!!
adding the layers of paper with eyelets, 
and the flowers with shiny brad, it really add to the detail
Oh, the color of this photo is a little off, 
but you can still see the detail.
oh, how I with the camera fairy would visit...


Lots of Love,

Going Somewhere?

I had these funny random pics of us in the car!
It just struck me as a great page, 
because it is not always about the destination.
in fact, I don't even remember where we were going!
But, we had such a great time getting there.
Sometimes, it really is all about the Journey










Even though this picture of Logan is a bit blurry, I like it anyway!







Hope you like it. 
and remember, you can use random pics to really have a fun page.

Lots of Love,

Two Babies and an Invitaion

How do you make an invitation with two babies in tow?
When my sister in law needed to make an invitation 
of course, she came to me!
And I insisted she bring the new babies!!!
We soon found out how hard it is to hold a baby each 
while trying to cut, fold, and glue.
and the punkin seats just wouldn't do...
They were actually really happy to be on the table while we worked.
I guess they didn't want to miss any of the fun!



And Here is what the invite looked like
It is a gate fold invite

the monkeys are attached on opposite sides
and they hang over the edge.

you can make it 4 x 11, then fold in 2 3/4 on each end
you get three out of a full 12x12
OR
you can use an 8 1/2 x 11, cut 4 1/4 x 11, fold as above 
you get two out of the sheet


Thanks Jennifer, for the totally fun afternoon!!!


Lots of Love,

Christmas Card Swap

Let's have a Christmas Card Swap

What is a Card Swap you ask?
We all make some cards and then send them into me,
then I will send back to you one of each person's cards
So, you get a nice variety of cards and card ideas! How fun is that!!!
We did this before at the Castle, and it was sooo much fun!!!

Here's all the details:
You need to email me that you are signing up for the swap
Let's start with a group of twelve. (if I need to I will add another group)
so you need to make 12 of the same kind of card with envelopes (Christmas themed)
send them into me (or drop off at one of the crops) by Nov. 11
that gives me enough time to send the cards to you.
If mailing them please also send a self addressed stamped envelope (big enough to fit all the cards)
and if mailing- I need them in hand by Nov. 11 so plan accordingly
That way if you want to come to the crop you can just pick up your cards.


This is my first swap on the blog, so let me know if anyone has any suggestions
I will post all a sample of all the cards when we get them all in.
This is going to be soo fun, so sign up now!!!  :)
