Hey All!!
Today is my last day of work for 11 whole days! I cannot for it to start!!! My little guy starts Spring Break at 12:10 today when they "Dance Their Way Into Spring". What this is is a song that they dance out of school to. Last year it was the Cupid Shuffle and the year before that it was Cotton Eye Joe. This year, its the original Electric Slide.
Yesterday, he had his poetry day at school. He had to recite his poem "Suzanna Socked me Sunday". It was TOOOOO cute! And he was so happy that hubby and I were able to go! I HUSTLED at work to be able to get out early to be able to see him!!! He did such a great job that we decided to take him to Friendlies to show how proud we were!
Then, last night when I got home, hubby and bubba took a nap, so it was crafty time for mommy! I decided I am SO TIRED of waiting for the Smash Book that I planned on using for challenges! I also decided that I would use the sprial journal pad that I bought at Michael's a few weeks ago! And guess what? I am glad I did! I enjoy the pages so far!!
Here's 2 pages I did so far in it. Both were challenges that I did from Facebook:
This one was a challenge to use 3 out of 5 types of embellishments (I used Sprays, Buttons, and Ribbon), the quote mentioned above, and the a piece of scrapbook paper or jounal paper.
This challenge was to use your OLDEST piece of patterned paper and letter cutouts. It says "How I became a paper whore!"....yes, I know, but its funny! And its the TRUTH!!
I have a video that I am in the middle of uploading to You Tube, so that will most likely be visible tonight once I get home.
OK all, hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'!

Hey All!!
Happy Wednesday!
Gosh, I feel like I have not been with it for the last week! I have been feeling SOOO crappy! But, today, FINALLY, I am starting to get back into the grove and feel like myself again!
Today is my designer day over at Exploring Cricut! I knew what my project was going to be because I have a project that must be worked on for the next few days! Remember when I showed you the invite for my mother in law surprise 50th? Well, decorations were what needed to be worked on and I had just the cartridge for it...Groovy Times!!!
My sister in law and I want to work on a few different things, but what I was able to get done since I had all energy removed from me due to sicknesses was this:
2 Wall Decorations (there are 2 of each)
Isn't that smiley face awesome! It SCREAMS 70's to me for some reason!
This totally says Hippie and Love to me! Another 70's icon!!
I will check in with you guys with another post once I got more done, but for now, thats it!!!
Make sure you link up your Easter Themed project at Exploring Cricut for a chance to win a box of goodies!!
OK All, hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'!

Hey All!
So sorry I have been down and out for the last few days! Strep came over my household and me and my poor kiddo have been SUFFERING! Bless my hubby who has been taking care of us for the past few days! When I say I could barley sit, I'm not kidding. My stomach ACHED because of how bad I was coughing! I couldn't even sit at my computer! And my poor booger has the WORST sounding cough when he gets sick..sounds like a croup sounding cough...and sounds painful :( Thankfully, as of right now, we are both starting to feel better!!
So, today's project is for Exploring Cricut! Our theme this week is Easter! You can create any card, scrap book layout, or paper craft that has to do with Easter.
My card, sadly, was not my best work. I was very disappointed in it, but I just couldn't sit any longer at my work table, and I was getting upset with myself for not being able to think straight because of the pain and steady coughing!
One day this week, I think I will jazz this card up and repost it, but for now, here is my card:
SUPPLIES:
Simply Charmed Cricut Cartridge
MME Paper
Cricut Expression
Jaded Blossom Bunny Poop Stamp
Please be sure to stop and see the rest of the design teams projects! They all have worked hard on them!!! Show them some love :)
Then, be sure to link up YOUR Easter Card for a chance to win a box of goodies from Diane!!!

Hey all!!
So sorry, but I am STILL not feeling up to par...UGG... I totally hate when I am sick...Its the worst! I AM glad that my booger is feeling better! His cough is still horrible, but I can tell its not AS harsh as what it was!
Anyway, before work today, I decided that I should just stop to "stalk" out my Michael's to see what they happened to have out. Well, let me tell you that I am SO glad that I decided to go today (even thought I felt like a bus hit me :( ) because my friend that stocks up the paper section KNOWS I go on Thursday's and she hooked a girl up!! Lookie what I found today:
Simple Stories Pink SN@P Binder with inserts!
Simple Stories SN@P 3X4, 4X6, & 6X6 paper pads!
New SMASH stuff!!!
I am really so glad that I went today also BECAUSE she said that the SN@P stuff wasn't supposed to go out for another week! OOOO I was SO glad to hear that I got there today and she hooked me up!! I can't wait to use this stuff!!
Also, when I got home, I had a little present waiting in the mail for me:
My FIRST Unity Stamp of The Week Sets!!!
So, since I got home late tonight and I am still sick, I'm sorry to say I have not projects to show, BUT I have a haul video to make up for it!!! All the goodies I showed above with be in the video!!
One last thing before I leave you with the video...All of you lovely crafters that submitted to the most recent Paper Craft Magazine Call...they will be picking for that issue TOMORROW!!! Make sure to watch out on their Face book page! Its always pins and needles to hear if you are picked, but its fun to be around such good company!!!

Hey All!
So sorry this wont be a long post today...BUT...I...AM...SICK..and so is my little guy :(
Its actually Wednesday night, so I am getting ready for bed, but I wanted you guys to be greeted bright and early by an AWESOME haul video by me! You should know that this was a TOTAL mail haul (with the exception of the 3 things from Joanne's!). I cannot believe everything came in the same day! WHOOP WHOOP!
Also, before I leave you with my video, Paper Crafts Magazine has a new call for submissions! I think this call is PERFECT for all of us! EVERYONE has something in their home that makes them qualified to try out for this call! Check out the details HERE.
Here is a quick picture of my new SMASH pages that I did...Not too much...and I just finished up a page from last night as well!
I added ANTHONY and the rum and coke picture and arrows to this page.
Whole new page..sorry its crooked...I cant get it to go right side up!! WAAAHHH!!
Also, I wanted you to see how the pictures look when you use Pic Stitch and your Selphy:
They printed at 1.75 X 2.75 (roughly). I did ruin 3 pieces and some pics cause I saved the pictures to the 4x6 horizontal setting instead of 4 x 6 VERTICAL setting. I learned, and now I cant wait to get smashing on these pics!!!
One last thing before you see my haul video...Did you know that Our Kreative Karma blog has an AWESOME monthly challenge going on right now? Any SPRING or PASTEL project can be submitted for a chance to win by the end of the month! Come on over and check it out!! Ok... NOW on to my video!!
OK all! Hope you enjoyed! Hope to catch you Craftin' and Stampin'!

Hey All!!
Its one day closer to my Michael's having the SN@P items and I can just about STAND it!!! I want them all NOW!! Boy...do I need to learn some patience!!
So, for today's post, I figured I would show off some more of my SMASH book that I got done today! My kiddo still isn't feeling up to par, so while he relaxed and watched tv, I SMASHED.
Here are a few of the pages I completed! I am including 1 page that I cannot remember if I showed off or not. It wasn't done today, but it may not have been seen yet!
Probably one of my faves that I got done..The saying at the bottom says CRAZY ADVENTURE
This was our Top 10 moments from the trip. I found all types of icons that matched what are moments were and fussy cut them to go on the pages!
This idea I got from Corene's Creations. I tweaked it a bit...
...To include an interactive first page. It tells you a little back history of the picture!
Then when you open it up, it opens to a waterfall effect. I got 7 cards to fit on that! And if you lift the last picture up, there is my journaling card!
These were the last two pics I had to add cause they were printed Vertical instead of Horizontal! Because of that, they got their own page!
So, that's all I got done for today! Make sure you stop back later this week to see more that I got done!
