Flowerpot Tilda





This is another 2009 creation. I actually
made several of these and just adored
this Tilda stamp. The flowers, flowerpot
and garden tools are cut from Walk In
My Garden. The paper is from a big
pack that I got as Costco.

Wish



A 2009 birthday creation. This is a
Whipper Snapper stamp and he is so
cute. I always love coloring him in.

Flowery Tilda



This is another sketch that I tried
and cannot remember the site I got it
off of because it was back in 2009.

Tilda on a tire swing



Tree, branches and tire were all cut
by hand (tire with the CM circle cutters).
This is another 2009 card.

Tilda in Brown




Tilda in Brown and Pink. This is from
a sketch that I saw somewhere but do
not remember where. This is a 2009
card.

Too Stinking Cute












I had this idea in my head for a couple of days
before I ever sat down to do it. Nathan is so
cute and he is easy to work with. When I got my
Create a Critter Cart, I knew it was going to be my
favorite cart and I used it quite a bit on this LO.
The tree is from Straight from the nest and the
bird is a SU punch but the rest of the critters are
from the CAC cart. I used pooh font and just drew
the outline around the letters for a whimsical look
to go with the critters.

Alexis





Alexis being the oldest, wrote a very long story so
I had to make a page with a pocket to hold her story.
She wrote 2 pages and it is quite interesting reading
her take on the weekend. You can tell that she is 16
and will probably get a kick out of reading her own
story years from now but even better, we have proof
for her children just how her thought processes work.
The background went on crooked and it was so stuck
that there was nothing I could do to fix it so I just
digressed and dealt with it not being perfect.

Tylers Snowy Story





For Tylers story I thought it was important
to write what he said so it was clear later on.
I think he is going to look back at this and just
think how far he has come when it comes to
writing. Being my last baby, these times
can be bittersweet and I want to cherish every
last moment and step with him.

Snow Angels








This is a LO of Ryan when we went to the
snow in February. I had all of the kids
write about their adventure in their own words
so that I could add it to the pages. I wanted them
to be able to look back and read what their
thoughts were and not just my point of view.
I hope they appreciate this later in life.

Bright Tilda







Well, I am trying to use up my scraps of paper,
especially my PP. I am not thrilled with how this
one turned out so I am putting on here to remind
me how much I do not like using bright colors on
my Magnolia stamps. My camera is doing funky
things too because this looks rather muted in the
picture compared to how it looks IRL.

Feel Better


This card was made for my MIL who I wanted
to cheer up when she was having a bad day.
I used Zooballo, Pooh, WIMG, Doodlecharms
and a flower punch that I have had forever.

So Cute


I altered this frame for Michael to
put on his desk at work. Nathan is
3 1/2 months old. Picture taken 4/3/10
at the Easter Egg Hunt.

Spring Frame


Here is a picture frame that I altered for
Carol for Easter. I took this picture at the
Easter Egg Hunt in downtown Glendale.
