Totally TURTLES

I can't believe it's been almost a month since I posted! I really need to get busy and take some pictures of all my creations. I just have been doing a lot with my family lately. First I did some camp training with Girl Scouts. It was a fun weekend and I enjoyed learning about the outdoors, tying knots, using a compass and spider sniffing. So much fun! I even went on a night hike and learned that Wintergreen Lifesavers make a spark when you crunch them. I'm for sure going to show my troop that one at our camping trip in April. They will love it! Also I have been busy with my Stampin' Up! business. Taking orders, doing classes, workshops, delivering orders, etc. I'm not complaining. LOL. I love that I have so many new friends and customers lately. It does take some time to organize myself. LOL. Hopefully I'll slow down a bit to catch up on my blog. This weekend is my daughter's birthday party. I have been making some awesome things for it. She told me a...

Here's the card we are making on March 21st. I'm going to show how you can jazz it up too. Visit my blog to RSVP. Thanks for looking!

Here's something I came up with when trying to think of a beach themed card. A customer actually thought the star looked like a starfish. It's the 5-petal punch. I textured it with the lattice embossing folder. This is the class I'm doing at the Gulf Coast Scrapbooking store. March 7th, 10am. Make 10 of them. How cool is that? The perfect card to send to friends when you want them to come visit you in Gulf Shores. RSVP because there's only 8 spots. Jackie

Here's a 12 x 12 scrapbook page I did using My Digital Studio and the Sale-a-bration CD that I got for free at Leadership. My daughter decided to do Locks of Love. We took 10 inches off. She's so cute with short hair. I love it! Remember you can try MDS for Free for 30 days. Check it out here:  My Digital Studio Have a blessed day!

Well the day is here. The last day before Ash Wednesday. We call it Mardi Gras! Did you know that Mardi Gras originally started in Mobile, AL? Just a hop, skip and a jump from where I live. My girls enjoyed a parade on Friday night but we really loaded up on Moon Pies and beads. I guess they didn't need any more because they turned down going to parades on Sunday. That's okay because I've been trying to get my craft room straightened out. Hopefully it will be perfect by tomorrow night. That's my Mardi Gras party! Steve will make his famous gumbo. I can't wait to eat some! I'm also having a little something special for my guests. I will post pictures soon. Have a blessed evening and come back for some more projects soon. Here's a few pics of Cards I've made recently: Have a blessed day!

I hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day. I certainly did. My best friend asked me to lunch for some all you can eat sushi. YUM! We had a wonderful time visiting with friends and eating spicy tuna rolls. I also visited my husband for a bit at work, got some more Girl Scout cookies sold, made a wonderful dinner for my family and watched a movie with my two daughters. Here's the card I made for my oldest daughter: My daughter made some paper roses at school so I thought I would give it a try. She really was impressed by what I did. Another part of the card she liked was the BINGO cards. I used My Digital Studio to make them. The BINGO card download is only $1.95 I think and I can make them any color and any size and print as many as I want on my own printer. I love it! I did Pool Party and Poppy Parade. I was surprised how close it was. Actually kinda perfect. LOL. I also used some of our pleated ribbon and bakers twine. She really liked it. :) You can try My Digit...
