Finally got some time to stamp!!




I have been wanting to stamp for weeks but have had no time. Tonight I decided to make some time. The only bummer was that I had a ton of cleaning to do before I could even find a spot on my desk to stamp. I really need to better about cleaning up after myself... that probably won't happen though! Anyway, this is one of the cards that I will be doing with my club on Saturday. I hope that everyone likes it. It is supposed to be a Mother's Day card. I wanted it to be somewhat generic in case some of them wanted to give it to someone other than their mom. These little felt flowers were a lot of fun to play around with. Oh, and I dyed the ribbon to make it match the card. Well, I am off to clean up the huge mess that I just made stamping. Does anyone else have this problem?? I can't seem to stay organized and neat while stamping.

Have a good night and maybe I'll post more pics!

Let me just say one more thing... I can't get these pictures to look good. The colors do not look so weird in person.

Tagged!!

How did you meet your spouse? Don't get the wrong idea when I tell you how this happened.... I was dating a guy named Jeff. Well one of Jeff's friends brought Leif over to a get together we were having. So I guess I met him at my boyfriend's house :)

Where did you go on your first date?
I hate to say this, but I REALLY do not remember. Leif and I were always doing stuff. We were usually running off to Yellowstone for the day or going to concerts. We really did BIG things when we were together. I just called Leif at work to get the answer to this and he couldn't remember either. We are pathetic.

How long have you been together? In May it will be 5 years!!

Who eats more? I would have to say that I eat more. Leif works so much that half the time he only gets dinner.

Who said I love you first? Once again.... I don't really know. I wish that I had Danielle's memory, but I don't. I can say that we both love eachother though... does that make the fact that I don't remember any better???

Who is taller? Leif... not by much. We are both pretty small people.

Who sings better?
Leif probably sings better. But when I sing... I sing BETTER songs!!

Who is smarter? Oh this is EASY!!! Leif is probably the smartest person that I know. He knows everything!! I tease him about being a nerd all of the time cause he is so dang smart :)

Who does the laundry? What is laundry?

Who does the dishes? Me. I can't seem to get my family to put a dish in the dishwasher.

Who sleeps on the right side of the bed?
Leif does. I, like Danielle, feel safer putting someone between the door and myself.

Who pays the bills? Leif does! He is great with money so I'd rather he handle that!

Who mows the lawn? Once again, I'd have to say Leif.

Who cooks dinner? I do. Not as regularly as I should. I really don't like to cook.

Who drives when you are together? ME!! I want say anything else just in case Leif decides to read my blog!

Who is more stubborn? Anybody who knows us will tell you that I am more stubborn. I really like to get my own way.

Who is the first to admit when they’re wrong?
Leif. He is always the first to say sorry and admit that he is wrong. Sometimes when he really wasn't wrong but wants me to feel better. By the way, I am rarely wrong! :) LOL

Who kissed who first? Hmmm.. maybe I should have written all of this stuff down. I am a lady so I am going to go ahead and blame this on Leif.

Who proposed?
Leif did. And, it only took 3 years to marry me. 3 years and a couple of kids!

Who is more sensitive?
Me. I am a baby. Leif's job has taught him to be a rock. Nothing bothers him.

Who has more friends?
Neither of us have a ton of "friends"... we both have a lot of acquaintances though.

Who has more siblings? Me. I have 5 and he just has one sister.

Who wears the pants? This is an easy one.......... DEFINITELY ME! ( if you don't count McKinley )

I am going to tag: Sarah, Cheryl, and Gina

My little cowgirl!




Leif and I went on a little trip to Park City, Utah for the weekend and left McKinley with my grandparents for a few days and then she went with my mom and dad for the rest of the time. Here are some cute pics that my grandma took of Kinley being a cowgirl. She was so excited to go to my grandpa's and see his horses. Before we took her there, we stopped at WalMart to pick some stuff up and she insisted that I buy her a cowboy hat so she could be like grandpa. She wore her hat and her pink cowboy boots with lots of pride. "My grandpa is going to love my new chocolate cowboy hat and my boots!" She just kept repeating that the whole way to Idaho Falls.

I thought that the pics were cute so I had to share them with you.

McKinley and Jade were so cute posing for pictures yesterday. I just had to share with you! Easter was fun... but I must say that I am glad that my whole family only comes to my house once a year!! IT WAS CRAZY!!!

Cute pic of Kinley with her hair curled!


McKinley was so excited to get her hair curled. When I was done curling it she turned and said, " My dad is going to say Kinley is so gorgeous. We have to be careful so daddy can see me." She love it when her dad tells her she is beautiful. (Those of you who know him know that he does this about 100 times a day.) She is such a daddy's girl. Anyway, I thought she looked cute so I had to share!

My new nephew!!


This is my baby brother's brand new baby, Sean Jr. I guess that we will be calling him by his middle name, which is Rylee. You can't tell from the picture, but he has very RED hair. So far, I have been the only red head. My two kids don't even have red hair. I am excited and I think that he is so dang cute. Only a few more months and I will have my own little baby to ohh and awwe over!

Valentine for HUBBY!!


One last card to share. I made this one for Leif for Valentine's Day. Masculine cards are always a challenge for me but I think this one is okay! He seemed to like it... but, I guess he knows better than to say otherwise! Don't you love those eyelets?!?

Lovin' my Sale-a-bration sets!!

This may spoil it for those of you "We Stampers" who are in the same swap as me. Sorry. I made this card for a swap I joined. I think that this is one of the cutest birthday sets ever. The patterned paper is some of my new favorite SU paper too. I thought that this would make a great birthday card for either a girl or a boy. The picture is a bit crappy, but you get the idea!

Celebrate


Okay, this is a card that we did at card club last month. I love the new star punches!! The white on the large star is actually a rub-on! Love those too! This card makes you want to sing... I know... but it's cute anyway!

Excited for EASTER!!

I'm not really sure why, but I am really excited for Easter to come. I have been thinking about it all morning. What to have for lunch... how many eggs to hide.... what to put inside of the eggs... and on and on. For the last 3 years, I have had my family out to my house to eat lunch and then we have a huge egg hunt with at least 100 eggs. Today, I am going to call all of my brothers and sisters and see if they want to come over again.

Anyway, I love this card and it reminded me of Easter so I thought that I'd share it.

Have a great day!
