Be Creative

Giveaway Day 2...

Mud, mud and more mud... I would have to seriously relax if I lived here. Kylah continues to destroy outfits at a record pace. Tonight Niguel and I mucked out the horse stalls together, we talked and laughed and it was really fun to work along side of her.

She's a horse lover just like her momma. Such a natural!

 

Today's card...

 

Favorites on this card... Bazzill buttons, Prima Paper and Pink Paislee.

Leave me a comment today and tell me where you're going on vacation this summer or maybe what you're doing if you're staycationing... or just say hi... what ever just get in your comment. I so enjoyed reading the comments from the last post!

Let the give aways begin

Super fun filled first day of vacation. Within 40 minutes of arriving Kylah had caught a snake with her cousin, brought a bull frog in the house, loved on Feather the bunny, run through the fields, Muddied up two pairs of pants, fed the horse carrots, and who knows what else. Looks like vacation is going to include some laundry for me. BOO!

We are enjoying this time with family!

Day 1 - Loving this paper from Prima!

 

When I get back i'm going to choose a winner to win all the cards I post this week. One lucky person is gonna win the whole lot. Leave a comment each day!

Today leave me a comment and tell me... do you have more or less time to craft during the summer?

I'm gettin' there

I'm completely wiped out from putting together my daughters birthday celebration yesterday. Oh, and also still coming off my exciting class tuesday night... It was a packed house with lots of laughter and love for my cards! 

As promised I will be posting photos of the party hat cards soon... promise... I already photoed them, just need to edit.

Probably up this evening... Till then have a great day!

Birthday for a friend...

Yesterday I made a card for a friends birthday and i'm in love with how it turned out.

 

I made and envelope from an old wax bag I got from my mother in laws pantry. They are slightly yellowed and crisp... and totally vintage. First hand vintage! I added some lace to the top.

 
Close ups!

 
Can't wait to give it to her! It seems kinda southern to me???

Have a great day!

Another sneak peek

I started to write this really long post about my to do list and how I am going to throw it out the window for the summer and then I decided I would go with another sneak peek for today.

The Holiday Creatables class is coming along nicely... Here is a little sneak peek of just one of the cards. So many ideas and techniques and printables are rounding out the "online class".

I can't wait to release it!

 

Make today an amazing Monday... i'm trying out a new creative biz schedule this week. A new one for summer... we'll see how it goes!

Feature Friday

Did you know this favorite is back in stock? I got a few more supplies for this little lovely and by special request made up a few more... And at a special lower price as well. I love when paper goes to sale from the mfg's! Find it HERE

 

Hope you have a beautiful weekend!

Total Tease

Shippng kits and making videos thats what a fun day is made of... Here is just a snippet of one of the videos I made for my new holiday creatables class. I do mean a snippet, because its just no where near done.

Questions so far:

Will Holiday Creatables be a self paced class? Oh yes, it sure will be. You can do it anytime, anywhere and even in your PJ's

Will there be Printables? Yep, and they are total cuteness!

Got any more questions??? Leave me a comment... Here is the very short video (more to come soon)
