What A Day...

This is me today!! I got up this morning and wondered all day why I bothered. Do you ever have those days where everything just seems to push your buttons? Well today was one of those days. But I'm sure tomorrow will be better!
I got this cute stamp over at Art Impressions . Isn't she cute? The inside says "perhaps you heard the scream that followed". This was how I felt today.... No special stuff on this one. Just my Prisma colored pencil stamped image and paper I just went in and grabbed. I think I'll give this one to my boss at work. :)

Oh and here is the great stamps I got from HM Stamps . Dick has super prices and great service. I signed up for the House of Mouse stamp of the month. (February is the one with the cherries & the Have a Micey Nice Valentines Day saying)They are super cute. Now I just need to make something with them. I also got the Great impressions January stamp of the month. The one with the hearts. These look super fun to color. I guess I better stamp some up for TV night with honey...
I also managed to do 2 scrapbook pages this weekend along with a bunch of cards so I'm feeling pretty good about that. I'll share those later. I need to get better about writing down the stuff I used so I can list it. I can admit it I suck at that. I just get started and forget. :)
Also a couple of you asked about the Rakle stamps. I added a link in the last post to libet's store. I'm also going to be ordering Collection 4 if your interested in a buy in for that or any of the others you might like when I order again in February. Just let me know.

Fabulous RAK...



Here is the FABULOUS RAK!! I received from Kathy over at Bit's and Pieces my SBS3 swap sister. She has an awesome blog. I enjoy going over there and checking out all her fabulous creations. She also picks some wonderful blog eye candy for us to enjoy. So if you haven't visited her yet hop on over and say HI!!
Kathy I love your flower card you posted for the challenge. It's beautiful....



I also received my Rakle's in the mail. They are super cute!! I haven't had time to play with them yet but I will. I like how some of the girls are chubby (like me). They are going to be great fun to color.
( Kathy do you have any of these? I can stamp you some up to send next time.)
I had to work yesterday, but today I had a chance to make up some cards. I'll share those later.
I have been coloring images at night while I listen to the TV with my hubby. (quality time!) I also took some pictures yesterday that I'm going to scrapbook. For my picture taking day (one of my Resolutions). I need to do that tonight or it might get put on the back burner.
So until later... :)
P.S. You can get the Rakles here or the next time I order I can order you some. I had a buy in posted on here a while back and no one was interested so I deleted it. But if some of you are interested let me know and I'll order some more.

Yippie It's Friday!!

Here's my card for today. I love this little penguin. He's from last months CC Designs release. I got him over at All That Scraps. I used this cute new cuttlebug embossing folder I just got to make the front then stamped him in the middle. I colored him with my Prisma pencils and used a pop dot on the yellow balloon. Very simple and fast... But still cute!!
I had a hard time with the embossing folder it kept creasing the paper. I ran about 15 pieces of paper through before I got it right. I had to run it through sideways. I liked it so much I ordered some more folders at Joann's while they we're on sale!
Off to work.... I'll post the cute card I got from Kathy my SBS3 swapping sister later and the great stuff I received from HM Stamps yesterday... :)

It's Almost Friday....


Yippie it's almost Friday!! It's been a long week already. I'm ready for the weekend. I love this little lady stamp ( Art Impressions) she's just so happy about something.
I colored her with my Prisma pencils I got for Christmas. I really love those. I also used some sparkly brads I picked up at my local scrapbook store here a while back. They are really cute. I also picked up the glitter so I could make my own. But haven't gotten to that yet.

It's not too fancy, but I think it's cute. Now to send it to someone??
I went to my friend Sue's Tuesday night to stamp and I came home with this great assortment of stamped images. She has a bunch of great stamp I don't have so I brought my card stock and stamp pads and stamped some up. Saved me a couple of bucks for those new Magnolia stamps that I want to get. They have some super cute stamps!! And I love the new ones they are going to be releasing!! I have to get some....
Well off to work... Until later.. :)
