Cards for hero's

I decided to join the Operation Write Home organization, which sends hand made cards to US soldiers in many different places all over the world, so that they can send cards home to their loved ones. If anyone is interested heres the link :)

Just a couple cards I made... I figure the "Miss you" pretty much says it all...

and this card I made for a challenge on 365 cards- the challenge was The 3 B's: blossom, blue and emBoss... this one will go to OWH also.

Thanks for looking :)

white pizza... mmmm

Color challenge, week # 4: Make a recipe using the color white:

I made white pizza last night... it was sooo good :)
I cheated and used pre-made dough (Winco's dough is really good) and sauce from a jar. I added cheese and butter to the sauce though. Easy and yummy!

toppings:
cheese, chicken, onions, mushrooms and red peppers and fresh basil leaves for a little color :)




I'm looking forward to next months color- pink :) with three girls we never have a shortage of the color pink in our house... just as my poor husband!

"Gramma Sue"

I've been working on this for a little while now, and finally got it finished this morning...

My Gramma Sue died on January 10th... She'd been wanting to go home for years. She got her answer to prayer on a Sunday evening, surrounded by her family. The last thing she saw before she passed away was her Lord... waiting for her with outstretched arms, to welcome her Home! We will miss her, but we know she's much, much happier where she is :)

a perfect pear...

WEEK # 3: Use white in an unusual way-

So this is my try at using white in an unusual way... check out Karens blog if you're curious or want to join in the color my world challenge :) This week was kind of hard for me!

I saw this idea on a blog somewhere (can't remember where!) and thought it would turn out super cute... I was a little disappointed in my result! But... I thought I'd post it anyways :)

"today is a good day"

This is a card I made for a challenge on a card making blog, 365 cards. The saying on it had to rhyme :)

I'm drooling...

I scrapbook in phases... a "phase" usually lasts about a month, and during that month I'm a crazy, addicted scrapbooker! Its all I think about and all I wanna do :) Then I get burned out for another month or two. Then the cycle begins again... its a sickness, it really is! I can feel another
scrapbooking phase coming on... I'm starting to drool over papers, buttons, flowers and inks :) here are just a few scrapbooking products I'd love to add to my stash right now...




Love these little journaling spots.....

This paper is by one of my all time favorite company's My minds eye- I LOVE it :)

I'm really into buttons lately- usually I use them as the center of my flowers, but who knows what I'll do with them next?

And these... I don't even have the words, but I've REALLY gotta get some!

I love this cartridge for my cricut... I love the little bird on the branch- how fun!!!

and more journaling spots- they'll be perfect for the cutest little school themed albums I'm planning on making for the girls teachers :) I found little apple shaped chipboard albums for only $1 at Michaels! I couldn't resist!

Oh and all these products were on acherryontop.com- I've ordered through them before :)

So, anyways, I think I'm gonna go shopping now!

project white

whew, I managed to finish my white craft project in time! I've had a super busy week- I knew what I wanted to make... I just had to find the time to DO it! I finished it tonight, yay :) I made it for Tylia's bedroom... I know its not ALL white, but I tried! the frame is about 11x14 I think. I originally wanted to make a really large one, and still might someday.

I was inspired by this gorgeous fabric butterfly frame on Sew Eco blog. I just love blog surfing for fun and cool decorating projects :)
