so cute i'm hoarding it!, pio, and a rak!

i know we all have some cute die cuts that we bought because they were sooooo cute! soooo cute that we just couldn't use them! well while working on this weeks pio challenge, i used some of those very die cute! i used my valentine 2/10 wip kit and added october afternoon die cuts.
i added glitter glaze to the milk cap then made holes with my cod and added the twine so it looked like a button. then on the the bracket i outlined it with stickles.

this weeks pio challenge... no more winter colors. i think i have pink on the brain this week. my little peanut is turning 7!!!! and we have pink-itis going on here for her party, and her school cupcakes etc... so i incorporated the pixie cottage challenge (red white and pink) for this one!



ok so who's up for a challenge/rak?
i challenge you to combine some challenges, and USE THOSE DIE CUTS!!!
if you do both, and put your link in a comment, you will be entered for a rak!

can't wait to see your work!

a moment to remember

it was just a couple minutes, but it was just so cute! alexa was showing gavin how to drum on the (very noisy) metal bench while wil was having soccer practice.

used my jan wip kit.

cupcake banner feb v-day wip kit

the kids and i went to michaels this am. i found this cute cupcake cb book in the $1 section. a lightbulb went off!

i came home and got to work! i used the feb valentines wip kit and my mini book, added bobunny alpha that i covered in db glitter. added the glitter hearts (from target $1 section) and instead of inking i glittered the edges!

i used the cupcake papers we are using for alexas birthday to make the flowers, and added pearls to the flower centers. i used some really old mm velvet ribbon, and thats it!

alexa loves it!!!






take note

here's a little journal i made with the january mini kit from wip! i added the sr cb house and some rock candy crackle paint!

lot's to share

soooo i decided since i never scrap on my desk, and it was such a total disaster area (scary actually!) that i needed a new plan for my spot.

i think this is a much better solution for me. it is so much neater! i just grab what i want to use and go find a comfy spot to scrap (coffee table, kitchen counter, etc...)

i am so very happy with it!



these three are from assorted wip kits (you know how much i love a wip kit!!!!) i used the letter paper to disguise the title on the lo with ds and the rhinos butt lol!!!!





these were both done with apron strings goodies!

happy 5th birthday wil!!!!



i can't believe he is 5 years old already!!!! he is my little miracle boy! i am so amazed by him everyday! i almost lost him at 12 weeks gestation, he was born at 33 weeks and had to be resuscitated, and lives everyday with neuro-fibro-matosis type 1! he is an amazing little guy

XoXoXo Mommy loves you wil!!!!!

i made his cake with a 9x13 chocolate cake, vanilla frosting a colored yellow. then used a simple 10x sugar and milk icing that i colored in orange, blue, black and left some white for the details of sponge bob. funny thing is he is not allowed to watch the show lol!!!


i made this gift topper from the feb scrapbook sussies kit!!! i am the feb gdt and soooooo very excited!!! i can't wait to share all the pages i made with that kit!!!!!!
