Making Cards

I love making cards, but I love receiving them more!!! Nothing says you care more than a homemade card, and people actually keep them!
I made these cute little boy cards the other night. They all turned out so cute! It's so nice having a little stash of cards on hand, you never know when you might need one!

Tip: Try to make a few cards with the scraps after you're done scrapping a page, it's a great way to use up all those extra supplies!

Hand Print Pie

I was telling my sister about the delicious dessert I made on Sunday, and she thought I should share the recipe with everyone. I was actually making Pies to take to family. Needless, to say they only got one of the pies. I had just taken them out of the oven, I put a towel on them to cool. My eight year old came to see what I was doing, as she went to get up on the kitchen stool, you guessed it, her little hand went right into the pie. Well first I screamed, then I figured, "What's done is done!", so I went and grabbed the camera! Taking pictures really is good therapy, by the time you go get the camera all the anger melts away, and you usually realize that what ever your child has done can be mended, repaired, or sometimes just laughed at. We gave the good pie away and we ate the damaged one, with a lot of extra whip cream. I know that one day when all the kids are gone, I'll think back on the Sunday afternoon, that we made Hand Print Pie.

Happy Monday!

A man came home from work and found his three children outside, still in their pajamas, playing in the mud, with empty food boxes and wrappers strewn all around the front yard. The door of his wife's car was open, as was the front door to the house and there was no sign of the dog. Proceeding into the entry, he found an even bigger mess. A lamp had been knocked over, and the throw rug was wadded against one wall. In the front room the TV was loudly blaring a cartoon channel, and the family room was strewn with toys and various items of clothing.

In the kitchen, dishes filled the sink, breakfast food was spilled on the counter, the fridge door was open wide, dog food was spilled on the floor , a broken glass lay under the table, and a small pile of sand was spread by the back door.

He quickly headed up the stairs, stepping over toys and more piles of clothes, looking for his wife. He was worried she might be ill, or that something serious had happened. He was met with a small trickle of water as it made its way out the bathroom door. As he peered inside he found wet towels, scummy soap and more toys strewn over the floor. Miles of toilet paper lay in a heap and toothpaste had been smeared over the mirror and walls.

As he rushed to the bedroom, he found his wife still curled up in the bed in her pajamas, reading a novel. She looked up at him, smiled, and asked how his day went. He looked at her bewildered and asked, "What happened here today?" She again smiled and answered, "You know every day when you come home from work and you ask me what in the world did I do today?" "Yes," was his incredulous reply . She answered, "Well, today I didn't do it."

My Favorite Thing

I am having so much fun playing with the Bind-it-all... a little machine that lets you bind your projects together!!! It is awesome! The reason I love it so much, is your pages can be any size... You create your own book and then bind it together. The possibilities are endless. It's great for gifts, school projects, scouts, and much more!!!

Check out this darling book I just made!!!
I love the little calendar and punch out cards!
