9 months...and counting

I took a few new pics of my beautiful dd today...we have just a few weeks to go before the arrival! She is feeling good except she says it's not so cute when he kicks and squiggles around...it just is uncomfortable. She is in her nesting stage...LOL...cleaning continuously and working on getting everything just perfect for little Hunter!

She's lookin beautiful!

Yea back online...


My internet has been down for the past couple of weeks...what a pain! I AM so glad to finally be back in the world of technology! I actually had to use a phone book to look up numbers...lol.

Anyway here are a few projects I created!



Below are a couple lo's, card's and a mini album I did for Craft Warehouse, a craft store chain here on the West coast (Oregon, Washington, Idaho). I have submitted them for a chance to get on their design team...keeping my fingers crossed!





















Thanks for looking!

Some new stuff....nope....not an April fools joke!


I had fun creating this mini album using pics from a camping trip with the boys last summer...I just love this line from Rusty Pickle: Under the Stars. I added lots of tags for extra pics & embellishments by cutting some of the pages in thirds!




This mini album"K" for Kelsey & Kenzie will be featured in Scrapbooking.com mag in May...so I can't give any sneak peeks BUT included in the article are complete instructions for completing this chipboard/acrylic album.


Yea back on my blog after the debut in February Scrapbook Trends magazine! I love this lo of my dh & I! Let's see if anyone reads this...lol...I'll send a rak to whoever can guess the story of how we met...no hints...but it was wild fate!

and another fun project that was in the February Handmade magazine! I used clear shelve liner to back this...just add a couple candles behind it for a romantic decoration!


Finally scraped a few of those pregnancy pics of my dd, this one is with the Candyland line from Rusty Pickle...love those bright colors!


Look at that belly...lol...she is adorable! This is the new Chocolate Covered Cherries line from Rusty Pickle.
Hey speaking of Rusty Pickle....word has it there will be another Amazing Race this year...keep your eye out for details if you are wanting to try out for the Design team.
Thanks for looking!

Baby Hunter 3D ultrasound

This is just crazy to me! I wish they had this technology back when I was having babies. He looks pretty darn cute, only 2 months to go. So Hunter is due May 13...which btw is on my birthday, it will be amazing to be able to meet my first grandchild on my birthday. All my children were early by a week or so, so I'm guessing May 7th. Guess we'll see in a few short months!

We also had a baby shower today, I made these adorable flowers pots with an ultrasound pic of Hunter on the back of the flower. And a diaper cake...no not to eat, just a fun gift that makes a great decoration...made by rolling diapers up, hold them together with a large rubber band and use dowels inside to hold the layers together! It was a super fun project to make and I think it turned out pretty cute for my first one! When I walked in with the "cake" my daughter thought it was a real cake...lol... It was fun to meet most of Kyles family and nice to see he will be raised with the love of many!

A pic of the proud parents: my dd Kelsey and Kyle.
Hope life is treating everyone well!
