ANNIVERSARY LAYOUT

Hello everyone!

I must have caught the creative bug again! The last few days I have been wanting to make something but I just didn't know what it was! Well yesterday I sat down and started going through our wedding pictures! We just celebrated our 7 year wedding anniversary last week so I decided to make a layout! Now I have a wedding album that I made several years ago but I wanted to highlight just a single layout with some favorite pictures! I used a ton of Stikles and even used some liquid pearls that I got from the Expo!

I also made a card with the scraps from the layout! I feel the card has a kinda masculine feel to it! I would most likely give it to a guy for a birthday! My friend Pam(YorkieMom's Creative Corner) made a card similar to this so I thought I would try my hand at it! I think it turned out pretty good. I used the Cuttlebug(Vintage) dies that I got from Ebay to help me out!


And of course a cute picture of my faithful scrapping buddies who sit down at my feet while I craft! In the winter this will be great because I can tuck my feet under them and keep them warm! We have not put any flooring down yet so it is all cold concrete!

FUN WEEKEND

So the last time I posted I was talking about meeting my friends Klo and Erm from Pazzles at a local Rubber Stamp Expo! Well the weekend has come and gone but my memories will last forever!
I had so much fun with them that I spent the entire day Saturday and Sunday with them working at the booth! I was not technically invited to work the booth, but I kinda took over! I even got to meet Klo's best friend Steph who also works for Pazzles. SHE IS SUCH A KICK!!! It was like hanging around family...only no fighting!! This is the Card I made to thank Klo for coming all the way to Colorado just for me...LOL
Here are a few pictures from the weekend!

This is Klo, Erm and Me after the show on Sunday!!

SCRAPBOOK SHOW THIS WEEKEND!

I am so excited! This weekend is the annual Rubber Stamp and Scrapbook Expo in Loveland! I go to this every year and spend the entire day there looking at new stuff for crafting, shopping and just watching and learning!
This year will be extra special for me because my friend Klo from Pazzles will be there! I had asked her last year why Pazzles never comes to Colorado to do a show or teach any classes. She told me that they had been thinking about it for a while. A few weeks later she asked me which show I would be going to, the one in Loveland or the one in Colorado Springs? I told her it didn't matter I would go to which ever they would be at, but I usually go to Loveland! She informed me that they would be coming to Loveland this year! I was thrilled!
So this weekend I will be in Loveland most of the weekend soaking up as much information as I can from her and everyone else at the show! Even her MIL Erm will be coming with her! AGAIN...THRILLED! I have been communicating with them online for a few years now and I will finally get to meet them!
So if you cant find me this weekend I will be in LOVELAND!!!
WOOOOOHOOOO!!!

OUR NEWEST ADDITION!!

Hello Everyone! I bet you thought i had fallen off the Earth! Well no I just got a bit caught up in life.
This is a layout that i did the other day of our newest family addition! Her name is Abbagail and she is a puggle just like our sweet Baxter! She is about 10 months old and a rescue from the Denver Dumb Friends League!
My hubby decided that it was time to add a new princess to our family. Since Emma passed away there has been a bit of a void that needed to be filled. So the boys and I went to the "pound" and found this sweet little girl. We fell in love right away.
She has been with us now for about a month now and let me tell you....SHE IS ALOT OF WORK!!! She is lucky she is cute! According to the people who gave her up for adoption she only barks when she feels her family is being threatened! THIS IS ALL THE TIME...day and night! She has found every single hole in our fence and has spent a lot of time stuck between the two fences until someone realizes that she is back there. Luckily Baxter loves her and plays with her most of the day. They do fight when she tries to steal his "babies". She does not like our cat Keke however! They have gotten into many a fight and the last one resulted in both being bloodied! So now I have to carry the cat from room to room when he wants to eat or drink or lock Abby in her box so he can investigate the rest of the house for awhile!
Needless to say we love her and all of her little and BIG quirks!! How could you not love that beautiful smile of hers!!
Thanks for looking!
