Scrapdango Spice Kit

And it is SpIcEy!!!!!!

I love to say that word....Spicey..... She's spicey...it's spicey... ;)

First up are some projects from the Bo Bunny papers in this kit. I loooove them. BoBunny does plaid, strips and polkas like nobodies business. KWIS? {that is know what i'm saying? LOL}

This is henry's new buddy, Toby. They were best buds and become closer and closer every time we go to Amber's. Owen even calls him his buddy...it is sooooooo cute! i wish i got a close up but henry was so mad that he couldn't catch a fish (the water is 20 ft deep right off the dock and he is using a net, LOL) so I put a chippy fish in his net for him :) I like to call it mama bear-ism.

And a card for some fun....

I used my Gel-a-tins stamps on here for the "thanks"

And these are some of my favorite photos from Memorial Day weekend. AND I had to pair it with this CRAZY, flippin' awesome shark from these papers!!!!! I love Owen's face as Brian is looking at him. It's just one of those moments you catch on camera and think..wow...this is so awesome. And he is getting SO big. And you can see that in Brian's face, too. Owen would stay on this tube ALL DAY LONG if we let him. Well, if Uncle Greg did, LOL!!!!!!

Have a good one!!!

Altering...Again!

here are a few projects i did at the crop this weekend over at Citrus Tree Studios. I really love hanging out overe there..it is really relaxed and it is so fun. And i ended up winning the gradn prize! can you believe it? cindy is so generous...she gave a way a mini Clip it up! woot woot!

i used some BoBunny Birthday papers on here and I added tons of Glimmer Mists and colorwashes to the crepe paper to get it to match the papers. i love all the greens and yellows so i accented the hat with some Yellow Art Institute glitter.

he actually stands on the button!

We got some Clear Scraps in a product trade with Core'dinations and I used one of the ornaments on this altered frame. I heat embossed on it with my {fave} beeswax stamp.

I sprayed the frame with Glimmer Mists and Colorwashes and then added a crackle medium to allow the colors to show through. I used my Cuttlebug, Core'dinations and BoBunny goodies on here.

Bo Bunny and Masking

yeah, baby! it's the weekend...what a WEEK?!?!?!?! i taught my first class this week at a local community college and am totally stoked it is over...i got the first class jitters out of the way. i am so looking forward to next week and hoping and praying this is a new career path for me, i have always wanted this and worked so hard for it. I have been playing around with my instructor website all week, brain keeps yelling at me to get off the p.c. hey, at least i am not on here scouring the internet for all the new cha goodies, right? ;)

besides that...i got some time to scrap last night and made some cards. it felt good to snuggle in the whole with some vino and paper and chill {sigh}.

Here is a card i did for the BoBunny sketch this week. It is a BBQ Invitation. I just loved the Calypso line, BBQ'ing is a summer staple in our house and so is kissing the cook ;)

Of course...all these projects have Core'dinations on them! today is the last day for our contest so make sure you check it out!




For this layout, I cut out this cool swirl paper from BoBunny and it totally reminded me of water. so i traced it on a scrap piece of paper, cut that out and then used it as a mask...this way it would match the cut out. then i adhered the patterned "off" a bit so show off the masking.

These are photos of my crazy hubby, brain {that is my nickname for him for those of you that don't know that-his real name is brian--get it ;}, my dad and brother-in-law getting the paddle boat to work...turns out the rudder wasn't down so they kept going in circles. it amazes me that i even got the camera out between laughing and crying so hard.

Caardvarcks, Core'dinations, and stuff

Check this out! Whitewash is one of my favorite things to use out of the Core'dinations products so I cannot wait for this! It is coming in August and will be fun!



And here are a few cards I did for Serendipity Scrapbooks this month. I got the Just Enough Kit Please and it was loaded with Bo Bunny, Jenni Bowlin and Core'dinations!

A blonde Serendipity DT Call ;)

Serendipity Scrapbooks has posted the DT call for the August-January Team. This place is my home away from home and if you get a chance you need to check it out.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....

who loves to spend their scrubsters money? lol...since we both work {well, techniquely he is still laid off}, when i get to spend his money it is extra special! jk. it's all ours...i am just in a good mood.

so, i went blonde! i use to get lowlights and a few highlights but these are all high! i love to change it up and an i haven't been blonde in a looooooong time...since before owen was born, actually.

and here is a layout i did for the blog hop at Urban Anthology. It was fun! there were a bunch of requirements...using crepe paper {the bottom of the hat..it was white and i used color washes and glimmer mists} a big shape, masking..and lots more. TFL! it's LOaDeD with BoBunny goodness.
