Hi Everyone... I hope that you are having a great week so far. Here are 3 more layouts that I have made. They are all from last summer. I have been so busy catching up on my scrapbooking, that I haven't made any cards yet this week. I am really hoping to make some cards later in the week. I will share those with you. Is there anyone else out there trying to catch up on your scrapbooking? If so, leave me a comment. I would love to hear about your progress!

More scrappin'

I really hope that everyone had a great Easter. Here are 3 more 2 page layouts that I have created. The first layout is from last summer when my husband and kids had a water gun fight. The second layout is from my son's end of the year awards from preschool last year. Finally, the last layout is from my daughter's Dance/Cheer camp last summer. On all of the layouts I used my Quickutz silhouette to cut out the letters. I love this machine. It will cut out any font that you have on your computer. It is a lifesaver. What I usually do is make a bunch of layouts and then on another day, I go back and cut out all the titles using the silhouette. Enjoy your day!

Scrapbook pages

I have been working on trying to catch up on my scrapbook pages. I am well over a year behind. It gets to be very overwhelming. But I am going to try my best and be caught up by June.... but we will see if I can do it. Over the next week or so I will be sharing with you my pages. I really hope that you enjoy them! I had a lot of fun putting these together. Have a great Easter weekend! Beth

Sketch challenges on Splitcoast

It has been forever since I have done a sketch challenge on Splitcoast. I really liked this weeks sketch and decided to give it a try. Here is a link to the sketch:

Here are the cards that I made using the sketch.

Masculine Birthday cards

I find it really hard to come up with masculine cards. I have so many cards, but none of them would be suitable for a man. So I decided to get this new set from Stampin' Up! called Trendy Trees. I thought it would be perfect for masculine cards. I sat down last night and this is what I came up with. I hope that you like them! Have a great day!! Beth

Easter cards

Can you believe it? I actually made some cards for Easter. It felt really good to get back into the swing of things. It has been forever since I had made a card. Last week, I made some scrapbook pages also. I will show you those in a couple of days. I really hope that you enjoy these cards!

My first campain: Walgreens Take Care Clinic

Have you or a loved one ever gotten sick on the weekend, when it is so hard to get in touch with a doctor? Or the wait at Urgent Care is forever? Well.. did you know that your local Walgreens have their own Take Care Clinic? It is true...the Take Care clinic has highly qualified health care providers such as board certified practioners and physician assistants. They are there for your everyday health care needs, from itchy skin to strep throat. They can diagnose and treat a lot of illnesses and they can even write you a prescription. You also can get vaccinations and physicals there. They are there 7 days a week, including weeknights, don't require appointments, and most insurance plans are welcome. If you are interested in meeting with a healthcare provider, just leave me a comment with your email address. I can mail you a voucher for a $50 coupon book that you will receive after you meet with the provider. So next time that you are sick, or need some medical attention... don't forget about your local Walgreens.

so sorry!

Ok... so it is now March... and I have been in a real rut!!! Totally lost my mojo. I have had no energy or desire to stamp or make anything. I don't even know if anyone will be reading this... starting next week I will be making something!! And I will post it.

I will be also doing some product reviews for different products. I joined a website called Bzzz agent. It is a word of mouth company. They will assign you different campaigns. They will send you products and all that you need to do is test the product and write an honest review. I have been assigned to three campaigns: Take Care clinic at Walgreens, Palmolive Pure + Clear, and The Fragrance Collection by Glade. I am still waiting on the Glade Products. I do have coupons for Walgreens and Palmolive... so if you are interested just leave me a comment with your email and I will email you for your address so that I can send you a coupon. Anyway, more on these products next week. Have a great weekend.... and I will try and not take such a long break!!! Beth

Will be back SOON!

I hope everyone had a great holiday!!! I am so sorry I have been MIA. My husband had surgery and then I got a stomach bug on Christmas and didn't feel well for a week! Now I am trying to get my house in order... once that happens I will be able to create something for you!! So please hang in there!!! Thanks, Beth

Happy Holidays!

I am so sorry I haven't had any new posts lately!! My kids have been sick and I have been running around getting ready for Christmas. My husband is having shoulder surgery on Monday and the kids are now out of school, so I had to try and get all of my shopping finished and the gifts wrapped! I am finished with shopping and only a few gifts left to wrap! I will not have time to post any new projects for awhile... if I don't post any more before Christmas, I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas!!! I do hope to be back before the new year.... hopefully I will get a new toy for Christmas and I will be able to make some new projects! Merry Christmas! Beth

Sketches on SCS

Have you ever used the same layout for your cards everytime? I seem to do this all the time. So I head over to SCS to the sketch challenges. Here are some Christmas cards I made using some sketches.

More digital stamped cards

Here are some more cards that I made using the digital stamps that I purchased through All that Scraps. I just love the snowman and bear. They are really cute. I also love that I can resize these images. I hope that you like my cards..... I have only 13 more Christmas cards to go! Have a great day!

Where does the time go?

I can't believe that we are only 2 1/2 weeks away from Christmas!! Time flies way too fast. Here are 2 more cards that I made.... I think I only have about 26 more to go!! I don't mass produce cards, but will make 2 or 3 of the same card sometimes.... Now that we are getting so close to Christmas and I just want to be finished, I will make them much simpler than I usually would. I like to have more layers on my cards and more embellishments (especially ribbon). I usually never make a card without ribbon, but I am just running out of time and energy.... so lesson learned... next year start making Christmas cards in July!!

Good morning

Hi everyone... I hope that your Monday is going well. Here are some more Christmas cards using the digi stamps from All that Scraps. I have had a lot of fun coloring these in using my Copic markers. Well, off to make some more Christmas cards!!! Enjoy your day!

Tis the season!

Well, I thought I was finished with my Christmas cards, until I sat down and wrote my list and counted how many cards I had and needed. I was 38 cards short. So... I will be busy the next few days. I don't like to mass produce cards, so I will be making many different ones. I will be posting the next few days the cards that I make. I hope that you enjoy them. The ones that I am posting today are from CC Designs digi stamps. You purchase them through All that Scraps for $5 and they send you a link. All you have to do is download them and print. It is really cool. You can even resize them. Have a great Sunday! Beth

Have a great day!

Busy...busy...busy

It has been a busy weekend!! I will post something soon!! Sorry!! Beth

Nugget tins

Here are 2 nugget tins that I have made to give as Christmas gifts. I decorated the nuggets with Christmas paper by Me and My Big Ideas. I just found this paper at Michaels in a HUGE stack. I promised myself I wouldn't buy any more stacks... but I couldn't resist. It was really cute and on sale!!! You can never have too much cute Christmas paper, especially when it can cost up to $1 a sheet now. What are you making for Christmas gifts? Beth

New idea for my message board

Someone gave me an idea for my message boards. She suggested to make a Christmas one to hold Christmas cards. I thought it was a great idea!!! I am making 3 of these for my husband to give to his coworkers for Christmas (along with the scrapbooks). I painted the canvas red and then stapled the Christmas ribbon across it. Let me know what you think. Beth
