family camping trip



Having fun!!
My family and I went camping in the woods behind my sister and BIL house, we had such a great time, I had to share pictures. this was of the creek right behind our tent, talk about sleeping like a baby!!


we had six tents (seven if you count the little one attached to ours) and a screen house, my BIL even made a outhouse. What a great guy!!


I have to share these great photos to, my BIL was trying to get my nephew to go out on the four wheeler, he kept promising him that he would not speed or take him in the water.. he kept his fingers crossed because he does not beak promises.. the next is he (the BIL) cooked bacon, guess he was never taught fire safety in the military.. the grease caught on fire and set the sreen tent on fire.. funny, we had so much fun we are doing it again fourth of July!!

Hair on my neck


Simple card I made for a girl I work with. We have a really grumpy boss. I wrote on the inside "don't feel bad, she raises the hair on the back of my neck too" The stamp is from Stamps by Judith and Heather.

Altered OJ/Limeaide bottle



I am in a altered ribbon swap on SCS. I chose to use brown and pink because they are some of my favorite colors. I spray painted the top brown, I used a scallop punch to make a border on top and bottom of the paper. paper is chocolate chip from SU. the big piece of paper is from a pack of paper that I purchased from Acmoore. The flowers I made with the cricut. I filled it with brown and pink ribbon. I wrapped the ribbon around skewers before putting it in the bottle.

Shot Glass Box



My Niece will be giving shot glasses as favors for her wedding. this is what I came up with. I used a 3 1/2 square and scored at 1 in all 4 sides. I then cut on the score line to form the box bottom. I then took a strip of paper 3in x 8in and wrapped around box. I used sticky tape to hold it together. the top is SU brushed silver paper. I used 4x4 square and scored it 1 1/2 in all the way around. Folded it the same way as the bottom. Tied with 1 in black ribbon.

Steph's wedding invites & response card





My adorable niece Steph will be getting married in Sept of this year. She asked me to make her invitations. I am so excited to do. These are the two she is down to deciding on, she wants black and silver with the hearts. I forgot where the reception was so I wrote I forgot. Made my niece laugh..



3x3 card I made for a swap on SCS. It was black, silver and whaite. paper is all stampin up, the stamp set is from stampin up to, forgive me, I forgot the name of it. I also embossed using glitter embossing powder.




Another Judith /Heather stamp, I made these for my girls at work, We all had to work good friday when we should have had it off. I wanted to show them that I appreciate all there hard work. Judith tought me (I seen her at the stampin expo in Allentown PA) about using the light gray marker to highlight around the little guy. That has been the best tip someone has tought me.
