Some pictures

I finally had time to dig out the camera and take a few pictures of some things I've done lately.

1st though, is hubby and Amy getting ready to go see the Steeler game. It's her 1st game ever and she was SO excited! She's hoping they see Hines Ward, her favorite player. She'd only agree to me posting the picture though if I wrote she's pregnant. LOL

Next is the SU camp I attended Friday night at Kim's. We made these altered notebooks and then 4 notecards(2 turned each way). I decided to gift my niece with them. I think she'll appreciate them. Made using all SU products.

Here's a few pictures of layouts I made when I went to the weekend crop.

The products I used were all from Tara of the Magpie Club.

She sends FABULOUS stuff each month. Check her out HERE.

This picture was taken a few days before I delivered Zach. I'm waiting to add the then picture since I'm getting closer to goal and want a pic of hubby and I then.

This one was Zach and his Scout friends on a trip to Niagara Falls.

And this layout I did using Debbie Mumm paper. It was one of my favorites that I did.

It was Zach when he was younger at Schramm's.

Tag Created

This past weekend I won a scrap kit (Flirting with Elias) from the talented Pixie and her Team Kissed. She has some extremely talented ladies in the store they opened and I'm lucky enough to know many of them through the Muse Inspired list. Check out the store for the kit and many other items at their store: TKO Scraps
You can find the tag I created using Pixie's scrap kit on her blog found HERE.
Thanks so much Pixie!

Thank You

I've said it before and I know me and I'll say it many more times.....I have the best friends a girl could want. My friends are EXTREMELY important to me. I was blessed in more ways than I can ever express that some how, some way Judi reached into my head and I saw the success she was having with Weight Watchers and it motivated me to do something. Needless to say, I owe her big time. Along the way of losing weight she's offered encouragement and support beyond belief. She's also given me clothes that you can't even imagine so that I had to buy minimal things as I was losing because I was so fortunate. But even more important I think has become the close friendship we've formed in this past year. Whether it be a text, an email, a phone call or a visit, I know I can count on her for ANYTHING! When it was time for my son's graduation party I honestly do not know what I'd have done without her. She was a complete godsend keeping me balanced. Even my hubby noticed that I didn't get all frazzled because she was here helping. I'm not good with words so I can't even begin to express what she means to me. She leaves for 10 days to Alaska tomorrow and I can tell you it will be a long 10 days for me!
OK...enough sappy stuff!


Recently I showed you one thank you card I'd made for my good friend Carol. I couldn't show you the other one I made because I know Judi reads my blog. LOL I FINALLY got the other one done I wanted to do for her so thought I'd show them off. Nothing fancy but definitely me.

This was the 1st card I made Judi.

It's a digital image from Elizabeth Dulemba. Colored with my SU watercolor pencils.The buttons, ribbon and cardstock were all misc. things I've picked up.

This is the 2nd card.

Made using my Cricut and one of my new cartridges. (Simply Sweet)

Used a SU stamp to put the background on the side.

Paper was misc cardstock and the yellow was from a DCWC pack.

Layout with Helly's Kit
