Are you ready for some football?

I'm not a Raiders fan...but I was asked to make a card...
I had fun making the footballs with the Tiny Bubbles Cuttlebug folder.
The shapes all came from Everyday Paper Dolls (my favorite cartridge!)
Except the banner, that was from Birthday Bash.  I got the green 
ribbon at Stamper's Corner scrapbook store in my hometown.

I hope the person I made it for likes it too!! <3

Happy Birthday Madam President



My latest card went to my little sissy who is now 19.  She was elected CA state's FFA President this year...so I made her card to represent that...actually the card was requisitioned by my grandma and she was the one who gave it to her :-)  I thought Everyday Paper Dolls did an excellent job of helping me find the perfect FFA outfit...of course I had to cut out the emblem by hand...but that was no problem!  :-)

Adventures of a 2 year old

Abigail is almost 2 1/2 now.  She loves playing and climbing...so her Nana and Papa (my husband's parents) bought her a jungle gym/playhouse for their backyard.  She has so much fun climbing up the rock wall and playing in the house!  But her house needed curtains...so Mimi (my mom) got out the sewing machine and quickly made two 2' x 1/2' panels and hung them on a tension rod for her.  Now she has an "awesome" house, as she says, and a safe place to climb!!  <3

Love You a Latte

I just love this card that I made using my Cricut.
I used my Just Because Cards and Once Upon  A
Princess cartridges.  JBC for the saying and OUAP for the
coffee cup.  The paper and embellishments are from Joanns.
I love you a Latte!!  <3 Sarahendipity 

SCRAP-BO

A bunch of friends and I have taken the "bunko" idea and decided we need a Scrap-bo Night!  Actually it will be a day (10am-4pm)...but we don't need to get technical ;-).  I took it upon myself to be in charge of the game boards and prize baggies for the day.  I think they turned out cute for how quickly I put them together. 

Luckily I've been a good girl and saved my wrappers from when
I buy scrappy things...so I'm reusing a bunch of them for this project.  :-)

The base tags are a piece of cardstock cut at 6" x  4" and then folded in half.
The white cardstock is cut at 5" x 1 1/2".
Then I just ran a strip of adhesive along the inside of the folded base cardstock before
attaching it to the baggies...The baggies open at the bottom, so I don't need to worry about filling them first before putting the tags on.  :-)

I decided to make a "stickle" embellishment.  I used my Simply Charmed
cartridge and cut out the glue bottle.  I modified it a bit and am only cutting
out a few of the pieces so it looks just right.

It's not the straightest...but, the "scrapbo" title was cut from  the Jubilee cartridge
and I used the shadow button at 1 1/2" ...I added stickles to my
embellishment and now the prize baggies are ready to be stuffed. :-)
I hope our Scrap-bo Day goes well and that we all get a lot of scrapbooking done...we better, my Scrap-bo cards should keep everyone busy enough!  Happy Scrapp

Organized and loving it!!

I feel so much better!!  I went from a messy nook to a clean and organized nook in a matter of a day and now I feel like I can get some things done!!  Watch out hubby, I'm going to be spending a lot more time on the Cricut and in my scrap drawer!  <3 it!

Birthday Card

For this fast card I used a sheet of Doodlebug popouts.  I love how simple it was to throw together.  I hope the birthday teenager I made it for loves it as well!  :-)
