I feel very strongly that I must have it in my collection. I am off to find it. Shhhhh!!!

I've Been Tagged!



In fact it has been a few weeks since I have been tagged. I have been busy plus I forgot. Here are 7 random things about me.


1) I love candy with caramel: Rollos (Favs), Caramel Creams, Twix, 1000 Grand, Caramel Kisses, Carmellos, Junior Caramels (Newest Fav) .



2) I love Old Houses. It is a secret dream of mine to renovate an old house and eventually move in it. DH says that we are going to die in the house we currently own. (Boo Hoo)



3) I had the opportunity to perform in a drama competition in Seole, Korea. While there I came down with the chicken pox. (Crazy huh?)



4) I married my best friend's brother. How cool is that!!



5) I LOVE Food Network and I watch it ALL the time. It is a great recipe resource, but I have never used one recipe from the network. (What's up with that?)



6) I have the best kids and husband I am sooo lucky! They are my whole world!



7) Friday is my favorite day of the week. It is date night, movie night, and not get up the early the next day night. Woo Hoo!

I know it has been a looong time since I have posted anything. BUT, I have been a busy girl.
My daughter has had soccer camp, there have been Birthdays for family and friends, my other daughter has had dance, I have had church responsibilities, and the list goes on and on. I made this swap in the middle of July. It is another ATC. I used A Muse stamps and Stampin Up paper.
I just went to a Stampin Up demonstrators meeting this past weekend. It was too much fun. I did a lot of fun projects. I can't wait to put them on my blog. There is only one problem. My husband left our camera at work. His work is an hour and a half away in Charlotte. So I have to wait until I get my camera to post more pictures here. Oh well, what can you do.

Here is my A-Muse "New Stamp Challenge card. This the first challenge where I have actually submitted a card. And it is the last A-Muse Palooza Challenge (sniff sniff) I just loved checking out the A-muse Palooza Blog each week. I had a great time!!!!

Time for another BELLA card!! It has been a while since I have posted a Bella!! I love this Cruisin' Bella. My husband asked me if knew the make and year. I was pretty close. I may have been off a year or two. I had a lot of fun creating this car. I can't give details today. My hubby is calling me to get ready. We are heading to the lake today. Have a great Saturday. Oh yeah...
I have been tagged! I will post that later.

I made these two cards a while ago. The black and white look is my favorite. You can almost never go wrong with these colors. The stamp sets I used were Stampin Up and PaperTrey Inc.
The printed paper is from Die Cuts with a View.

Here is my latest A Muse card. I used the Stampin Up Tropical Blossoms set as well. Just a quick card.

Here is my "Changito" he is a cute little monkey by Stampendous. I found him and had to have all of the current Changito's. Yes, I am obsessed and I love monkey's.
So there you have it. I will be posting more Changito's soon.

Amuse CHALLENGE 7 Card!! These colors are my fav. The frosting is glittery and the cherry is a heart brad. And the little doodles are my own design. Whooops!! I forgot to send it in to Amusepalooza. Father's Day kept me busy I guess.

Here are my swaps for the A muse ATC swaps that Taylor Vanbruggen is hosting. They were a lot of fun to do. Not to mention it was great receiving all of the swaps back. Fun!! Fun!!

Here are two cards created with Rubber Romance Stamps! They have some super cute girly stamps. I still have a wish list going. The paper used in my top card is Basic Gray. All cardstock is Stampin Up'. Speaking of Stampin Up. I placed my order for the new goodies in the preview catalog and they will be here Tuesday. I do not think I can wait! AHHH!

It has been a while since I put a Bella on my blog! I made this card for my very close friend Angela. Inside it I put some Bella images. She hasn't placed her Bella order yet. I used my FAVORITE paper from Doodlebug. I LOVE their products!! I know I have said this before. I also love Paisley. I just can't seem to get enough of it!!

Here is a selection of goodies I made for my Secret Sister. I used Rebecca Paper and Polka Dots and Paisley stamp set from Stampin Up. The coaster box is in the shape of a triangle to use a pen holder. The box was filled with Caramel Creamies ( that is what I call them) I followed the tutorial from SCS. It was very easy to make too!

One more Papertrey Inc. card. I bought this set a while ago and have not had too much time to play. I am thinking this summer will allow me a little time to stamp YAY!!! I have also found out that I stamp best first thing in the morning. Before the events of my day have worn me out.

Stamps: Papertrey Inc. "Green Thumb"

Paper: Stampin' up: Tempting Turquoise & Lavender Lace

Ink: Tempting Turquoise, Lavender Lace, & Pixie Pink

Okay, Here is my late Beate's weekend challenge card. Yes, it was due last night. Oh well, I had fun making it anyway!! I used the stamp set from Papertrey inc. It didn't turn out quite how I wanted it. I was a bit rushed. My hubby wanted to get in bed early tonight. We have been a couple of night owl's lately and it is now catching up to us. Goodnight for now....

My New Banner

Okay, I hit the Shabby Princess website to get yet another banner. I am a bit fickle. Who knows how long this banner will last. I came up with name "Paper Petals" from the banner itself. I hope this isn't someone elses' blog title. All of the good banner titles have been snatched up. I have tried very hard to come up with a cute blog title. Here are a few of my favorite titles:

Paperfections
Paper Truffles
Doodlebug
Stamp Paper Scissors
Paper Patch

Oh now I can't remember some of the other fun titles. Oh well, you get the gist. Hope you'll like my new banner. I dooooo!!!!!
