My Obession....

It is offical I am obessed with "Coffee".  Not only to drink at my desk in the morning and frankly the stronger the better.  I love coffee paper (scrapbooking), stamps, and anything else coffee related.  So the next few pics are what I have been working on in the last month. 

I had to show the Chloe...

I use the cartiage "From my Kitchen" the eggs and hide the shadow and cut all of them out.

I acutally had a stamp that is two coffee beans.

I cut this from Quickutz and then the foam is from one of the cricut cartiages. 

I then used Puffy Paints. The first time I let it dry over nite. But you can use your heat gun.

Don't ask.  It took me forever to scrap this off.

Later for now.....

Its still Summer.....

I have a few minutes this afternoon.  Thought I would at least post a pic or two.  I am so ready for winter.  Yes, I said the cold to your bones weather.  Bring it on.........Ok here are some old pics from my vault. Hope you enjoy.

Thanks for all your support.

I made card for my Great Great "Auntie" and her twin sister for their 90th Birthday.
Sadly in fall of last year she went home to be with her Heavenly Father.

Happy Birthday to the Queen for the Day.

As for me and.....

Good Evening Fellower Bloggers.....(and none bloggers)  I just realized that I must have thing about the end of the month.  I last updated May 29 and today is June 28.  Kind of funny.  Not has happened since the last time I blogged, the first part of June I was the ameature photographier at a friends wedding. I enjoyed the experience and had funny doing it.  Then the organizing all the pictures and then I went ahead a made a video with my favorite pictures with two classic songs.  One with Nat King Cole and Natalie Cole "Unforgettable" and another from Natalie Cole.  I learned alot last weekend.  And yes to it did take me all weekend, by Sunday I finished at 430pm.  Any whooo...

This past weekend I got to go to a scrapbook retreat-well I didn't actually scrap book I made "Home Decor".   A few weeks ago I bought a BIG picture frame 12x18 no glass and damage for $12.50 the orginal price was $49.00.  Anyway here is the protect I did......

fix the frame

and fix it more.....

I used my gypsy from the cricut with the font of Lyrical Letters.  I love this cartiage. 

Thanks to my friend Ms. "J" I didn't bring my Xryon.  She let me use hers. 

the scallop punch was used the make the shingles.

I started at the bottom and just kept layer...

The house that I cut out was from Kate's ABC cartiage.  I used the doll house and cut it out then I just kept adding to the bottom of the house.  On the yellow paper.  I ending up making it a 3 store house and I did cut the chimmey off.

see the yellow house-I ruffled the shingles or rolled them up.

the windows and door was from the Wild Card Cartiage the house card.  Adding black frame and transparcey to the windows. 

And the finished project......

"As for me and my house I will serve the Lord..."  I hope you enjoyed the project.  Great gift idea..

Later for know........

Easter come and gone....

I never said that I would post on the actually month -but I just had to post these pics to show my projects for Easter 2011.  I had seen these Carrot Boxes some time go-and I just had to try one time to make them.  The pics that follow are there supplies that I used and the finished project.  Hope ya'll enjoyed. 

I cut these out of the Cricut Tags, Bag and more Cartiage....with the whole in the middle.

I managed on the cricut Expression to get 2 different sizes. One a medium and then smaller.

Transparency Film cut into triangles

I used one sheet of transparency film to made into a triangle for the window.

  I had to make it the a sharpie marker.

I love my Score Pal...need I say more.

I love my ATG gun...

I tape the inside flap--not the square for the back of the boxes and Hot Glue can be used too

I poke the back to put some grass thru it.



Finished project with hard candy in them both.

Happy Late Late Easter.  I hope you enjoyed the project.

And not to forget Thanks to all the Military Men and Women for their past, present and future service. 

 GOD BLESS THE USA

It was so sad....

I haven't blogged in a while.. had a few things that have happened in the last month.  I had to have a funeral...nor family or animal just ................................ready my dear sweet computer.  It bite the dust, dirt, went to the great beyond of CPU Heaven.  But the best part is that a someone managed to salvage everything onto a portal flash drive. 

You know me I just had to take a picture of it.....And thank you to my mom and dad.  One of my dad's friends had a computer that needed a good home and my mom worked it and got it all ready to come home with me.  Thanks again for all that you did on "Bertha".  

It was weird bringing home my computer and getting it all connected and setting up my email and everything else.  I lost all my old emails and old contacts--before you cry for me.  I was actually ok it was almost like wiping the slate clean.  I guess kind of like God does when you come to him as your Lord and Savior.  He wipes your hard drive clean and you get a new start.  Kind of ironic how somethings work out. 

Happy Birthday
