My spidey, princess


So my 4 year old decided he was going to be Spiderman the other day for Halloween, since he got up this morning he has worn his Spiderman costume all around the house. He LOVES it, however my dh and I felt that since he couldn't have the candy or the hot chocolate or the smores at our church that I would stay home with him and my dd. He also doesn't do well with crowds, or changes in routines well either and so we thought it best we just rent "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything". He has been giggling through most of the movie, so I think I got a good movie for him. Meanwhile my dh and our oldest, have gone to the church to help out with the Halloween Harvest for the hungry...which is a great cause :)! I was going to take a bunch of pictures of him, but he isn't one to like a lot of pictures taken of him.





Here is my dd all dressed up in her little butterfly costume, I let the children wear their costumes around the house to show our Early Interventionist and they actually have kept them on all day. What a cutie pie :)!










Here she is in the morning just after we took her oldest brother to the bus stop for school this morning. She wanted to wear her wings over her sweater, and to run around the house with them on. She paused just for a minute or two for this picture to be taken...










Here she is posing for me, little did she know I was sitting next to her taking her picture...she was too busy watching Dora :)!


Have a great weekend everyone,

Snow Peas, lol


I found this stamp and another stamp like this one that said "Peas on Earth", I believe that I mentioned them about 1-2 months ago...or perhaps a few weeks ago. Lol, my poor memory...it's sad :(! Anways, the other day Julie and I went to Carousel to pick up all the light pink cardstock she carried so I can make my sisters invites for her wedding. While we were there I picked up this stamp, Julie made me do it...well, actually she said that she would allow me to get it in the post awhile ago. So here is the card I created using this stamp...this is the kind of pun my dad would get a kick out of!

Happy Creating,

beautiful cards gals


The other night, Julie had the usual gals over to have a crafty night and I was unable to go but I did drop off our card challenge that we had to do. Our challenge to our group this time was to make a Christmas card, then we draw names and then exchange the cards we made. I apparently got Deborah's card, look at this beautiful card...will have to get her to show me how to do this technique. I LOVE Deborah's cards, they are always so beautiful and done with different techniques too :)!


Then I also left another card I made for a previous challenge that I accidentally forgot at home, I actually nearly took Julie hostage and drove back home to get it. Anyways, I was to exchange my card with Louise when I saw her the next time and here is the card I got from her. I LOVE this card Louise, and the asian look to it too...she used the "Matchbook" card technique.

Elegant xmas card


I just love these angel stamps that I have found over at my fav. rubber stamp store called Carousel, these stamps are made by Stampendous and here is the newest one I picked up yesterday. This afternoon I decided I just HAD to stamp her out, color her in and use her for a card :)! I also picked up this xmas holly flourish from PhotoMemories a few months ago, it is by Inkadinkado. Here is the card I created around this angel stamp, LOVE it :)!

Hugs,
