Chelsea's Stinkin' Cute Scrapbook Layout

My sweet friend Chelsea made this stinkin' cute layout with the pink and green heart winged glitter butterflies that I created. She did such an amazing job on the layout. She's such a talented artist. I luv everything that she creates! Stop by Chelsea's blog to see other cute things she's created. I have several butterflies in different colours on sale at my Etsy shop.

Our New Home & Packing

Our new home is going up so quickly. The brick has been completed. The dry wall be be going up next. I'm looking forward to seeing the inside with all the dry wall done. I finally get my very own craft room and it will be upstairs right above the front door entry. The three windows you see on the left above the front door entry is were my craft room will be. That's my sexy hubby and sweet shih tzu in the pic. Right now we are doing alot of packing, cleaning, etc so that we can put our current house up for sale. I'm taking a bit of a break from crafting because I don't have time right now with trying to get the house ready to sell. It was sooo depressing packing up all my crafting goodies :o( There is no trace that a crafter ever lived here :o( Hopefully we can sell our home quickly so that I can start crafting again. I will still blog and post other pix but no crafting pix for a few weeks. I will post more pix of the inside of our new home soon so check back.

Chicken Dinner

I made chicken and veggies for dinner. Snap peas and mushrooms are my fav veggies. I luv boneless & skinless chicken thighs because how ever you cook it the chicken remains juicy even with no skin on it.

Ingredients:
Boneless & skinless chicken thighs
Snap peas
Carroots
Mushrooms

Wedding Bear Card

There are lots of summer weddings so I decided to make this bear wedding card. More pink and brown...luv it!! I used Stampin' Up!'s Sanded Background Stamp 109294 on the pink cardstock. I luv, luv, luv this stamp!! It's makes boring plain cardstock so pretty. The sweet sentiment is from Stampin' Up!'s Heard From The Heart Stamp Set 111644. This is one of my favourite sentiment stamp sets because you get all occasions like birthday, wedding, christmas, etc.


This card is currently for sale on Etsy.
