Bella Sopia

My oh so sweet husband took our boys out for lunch and games at Dave and Buster's and brought me home a great surprise......I was shocked but he found Bella Sophia.......This cutest little gift set of soaps and lotion.......I know it's not the same as our Bella's but she could be a sister or other family member.....Just love it.....

MIA

Well I sure have been MIA.......I have been pretty busy I guess........Valentine's Day was busy since of course I had to make favors for Jared's class oh and cookies.......We also made favors for our friends that we had to go and deliver.......Jared sure loved Valentines this year........My dear sweet husband went out and got take-out from California Pizza Kitchen (my favorite) and red velvet cake and we rented cookin mama for the wii and a few movies so we had a nice quiet night in.......It was perfect........Here are a few pictures of our Valentines Day Fun........More to come....

Happy Tuesday!

First I just love these colors.......I used Doodlebug paper, SU stamps and Bella stamps oh Copic Markers........
This is a Bella Card and I used some Basic Grey paper.......So cute....Just love these stamps....

This is a card I made with my Hanna Stamps.......I used some twinkling H2O's to color her in and so with the picture it kind of looks shinny huh.......

We have been so busy........We had a great time at the pro-bowl and got some great pictures of our son.......Now it seems like Valentine's day is already here and I'm trying to get everything done with that.......But I finally got around to getting some pictures taken of some cards I've been making.......So here are a few........I'm still waiting on an order of Bella Stamps.......Wow shipping with them takes forever........Have a great day.........Love Love

My Bella Storage System

Well I had to come up with a way to store my new bella stamps as well as some other single acrylic stamps that I have and when I remembered these boxes from the boys night lights I thought that would be perfect......So I painted the edges and then added some pattern paper.......Pink and Brown of course cause that is the colors of my craft room........well kind of my favorite colors.....So I was showing Dominick and he was just shocked with what I had done.......So he says mom I'm going to start calling you Transformer and I was like what.......He goes on to tell me that I have to transform everything........Even stuff he would think was trash.......It was so funny listening to him tell me about what he thought.......He did like the boxes and then tried to think of how they might be more useful for him for some of his cards that he collects.......Funny funny boy he his......Have a great night........Love Love

My Bella Book

This is a Bella book that I'm working on......I have it mostly put together just need to finish a few of the pages and add some more embelishments.......Love it.......Love these colors........Well Just love Bella........Cant seem to add to my collection fast enough........I pulled out this old doodlebug paper that I have had for a long time and thought that Bella would be perfect for it......Just wanted to share and will post the pictures when the project is actually completed......What do you think.......Love Love

12X12 Hawaiian Waters Layout

Well finally I have taken some pictures of the things I've been working on......These are some really old pictures that I pulled out and this is what I came up with.......I love when I use stuff that I have been collecting for way to long......I even did a little sewing.......I try not to sew straight lines cause that just doesnt work out for me so uneven works best......I used the orange glaze pen to outline the tags and chipboard letters just to make them pop a little.....Well I hope you like and I will try to keep up on posting.......Love Love

The Boys Door Signs

The Day Before Superbowl!

So I was looking at my blog today and I realized that it's been a week since I posted.......I need to take pictures of the stuff I have been making.........I have been doing a lot.......We have been so busy and the boys have been sick and home from school which isnt really a lot of fun for me.......

Some great news to share........Dominick (my oldest) has been playing football for a few years now and is just this total football fan now.......We are San Diego Charger fans......So he has just got so into this whole thing.........You know me I could take it or leave it but really dont care......So him and dad went to the Pro-Bowl last year and that was a great time for him and they always have to get good seats up front.......This year my husband was going to be in San Diego so we didnt get tickets when they went on sale........No big deal right......Well I got a phone call from Coach and he said that the team has been invited to participate in the Pro-Bowl doing something at half time and getting some time with the players........But the parents would'nt be able to come unless we had our own tickets.....So he would be sponsoring the kids........Well my DH actually comes home today and this week I scrambled to get tickets and they had to be good seats or what's the point of going........So we are happy to say $300.00 later we got great seats and I'm on the asile so taking all my pictures wont be a problem........I will be using my big lens and hopefully will get some great shots.......So we are a very excited family........As for tomorrow my husband is home so we have our usual friends coming over to eat and drink and chat which is always a good time.......Except that I always feel the need to 1. Cook To Much Food 2. Clean house like crazy........Hey maybe we should have friends over more often.......What does that stamp say "A CLEAN HOUSE IS THE SIGN OF A LAZY STAMPER".......Well when I have to clean and cook then I dont get to stamp and scrap........Not good.......But I should be back to it tomorrow night and hopefully will get all my pictures posted.......Well I just wanted to check in and tell you where I've been.......Oh I got a package in the mail today........I'm so hooked on Hanna Stamps and Bellas right now it' just crazy....Love it Love it...Well have a great weekend.......Love Love

Hanna Stamps

This Hanna shopping for Shoes maybe.....Love these colors and she is just so cute.....Oh how I love to color.....I used my copic markers......I also used some teal embossing powder.....Love it...
Here is another Hanna set and she is way to cute......You cant really tell but I used glitter on the shoes and the bag.......As an added touch I added the Heidi Swapp flower gem to her hair...Cute
This is Hanna Shopping again......But I think the colors were a little to light......She is still cute though........Hope you like........

Jared Lost A Tooth

So I'm not sure if this is "The Many Faces Of Jared" or "I've lost a tooth mom"......He is so funny when I come with the camera......Always trying to do this phony smile.......Then he claims the flash is to bright and he cant keep his eyes open.....So he holds them open......Such a funny boy......The story with the tooth is even funnier right....So he's in the bath and I go to take a shower and I told him I would wash him up when I get out.......I was going to be fast......So I'm in the shower for about three minutes.....Long enough to get the soap in my hair then I hear him calling me crying for me to come in there.......I got scared that he had hurt himself and I jump out of the shower soapy hair and all dripping wet and run in there and he is bleeding from him mouth claiming that his tooth broke.......I was like what.......What did you do....nothing he says.....then he tells me he was trying to open the soap........I guess with his teeth huh.......So out it came......He wasn't hurt but he sure was scared.......Poor baby.........The tooth was already loose so I guess he just helped it along the way........Now he keeps telling everyone he broke his tooth.....It's so funny because soon he front ones will all be gone.....Growing up these boys.....

And Jared Stamps!

When Jared was little he would come into my room and play with my little hammer and carefully place all my eyelets and brads in their little containers.......He even had his own stamps and ink pads and that would keep him entertained while I was busy trying to create......Long since then has he wanted to do anything like that......He is older now and much to busy with, friends, playing outside, playing X-Box 360 or wii to want to spend time like that with mommy.....And I know my baby isn't so much baby anymore and that part of him just has grown up.........I knew it would come just like it did with Dominick........So when he came into my craft room the other night and asked where his stamps and markers and pencils were not only was I shocked I was so happy.......That is the little boy I remember that always wanted to be doing what mommy was doing.......So he stamped and colored for awhile and then he was done and on to watching SpongeBob as if that was better than stamping.........But anyway I enjoyed that little bit of time and had to snap a few pictures........Where has my baby gone........I keep repeating this to myself but still have no answer........

Hanna Stamps!

So I got my Hanna Stamps in the mail the other day and have been having so much fun stamping her.........She is so great......I have a few more but I'm not completely done yet.......I just love to color what kind of nerd am I........Enjoy
