~*Birthday Time*~

Well, today it's my favorite man's birthday!!  Of course he had to have a card!  We had a great cake and dinner to celebrate.  I can't believe another year has gone by so quickly.  I also have another very special birthday coming up this week, so I will be making more cards! 

The card was made using some of my old Sassa Frass Lass paper... I love that paper company!!

Have a great week!!

Food Fun

Hello there! Well, the summer is always "SHOWER TIME" and this summer was NO exception.  I enjoyed helping host showers for many dear friends.  I attempted this fruit tray for the first time ever and LOVED how it turned out.  I just thought all the different colors looked so pretty together!  The dip in the center was EASY EASY EASY to make and a TOTAL hit!  Hope you enjoy the picture of this healthy art! :)

PS- I hope to etch more this weekend so be looking for more fun projects!!

First "Official" Paycheck

Well, this layout is about 4 years overdue....  However, I still remember the excitement I felt when I received that orange envelope!!  It was my FIRST paycheck in my profession.  Although I was a student, it still felt GREAT!  Just remember- EVERY major event in life is a scrapbook page just waiting to be formed!

Have a great week!

Home Decor by me :)

Well, when we moved recently I wanted a new look for our home- but we were on a budget (eek!).  So with a little help from my Silhouette, vinyl, a HUGE canvas, paint and some patience I ended up with a big painting to go over the couch that I absolutely love!  Part of it was stenciled, and part was freehanded.  I started out with a blank white canvas.  I hope this will inspire you to make something for your home that you love!

~*Cards & Cookies*~

Doesn't that just sound yummy? I am so VERY excited that I got a scrapbook table for our guest room over the weekend!!!  Now I can scrap and create and not have to worry about the dining table. :)  I made a card for a few friends who are very dear to my heart this week.  Also,  I was in a baking mood over the weekend and created these DELICIOUS peanut butter and chocolate chip cookies.  I WISH you could taste one!  I'm pretty excited that they turned out alright, because to be honest- I haven't baked completely from scratch in a little while (since the bread incident :) ).  Enjoy!!

~*Rockin Back to School Party*~

In the spirit of everyone going back to school, I did this layout of our "Rockstar Pre-Party" for our college's Spring party.  These were my favortie two rockers.  We had friends over and it was a blast!  I love this layout because it is so out of my comfort zone with the grunge!  Thanks for checking the blog and I hope to post more over the weekend!
                                                     PS- Happy birthday to Rocker #1!!!
