Happy Father's Day


Happy Father's Day!  I am blessed and fortunate that I still have my father, my first hero and prince. I am so thankful for my father and the foundation that he set for us.  Today's project is a LO of my dad that I may or may not have shared before but since I shared it on FB this morning I decided to share it here too.  I went home to attend church with my dad this morning, it was a very good service and since the male chorus sings on third Sunday I got to here him sing a solo, I couldn't get a very good picture; I only had my phone so I need to be better prepared next time so I can do a more current LO.

Middle School Review


Hello and Happy Saturday, what's on your agenda for the weekend anything exciting?  I don't have too much going on except work and  Father's Day.  I have just one more LO to finish and I will be done with my daughter's middle school album, I'm glad because it has started to wear on me.  Today I'm sharing one of the last LOs that I completed, it is out of order because it is essentially the last LO of the book.  I used misc. pictures from throughout the last three school years, nothing too special just some random pictures.  I used thickers for the title, stickers, metal embellishments, paper from the Homeroom paper stack and some cuts from the Silhouette store.

Take care and have a great weekend!

Class T-Shirt


Hello Thursday, I'm back today with another LO from my daughter's school album, only a few more things to do and the Middle School album will be done!  Today's LO uses pictures showcasing the 8th grade class t-shirt, they wore the shirts on the Washington, DC field trip (which reminds me I need to see if anyone has any pictures from the trip).  I used paper from the DCWV Homeroom stack, cut the t-shirts using the Formal Occasion cricut cartridge and Locker Talk for the pennant.  I used the Storefront and Mickey Font cartridges for the title, added a few alpha stickers and sequins and this LO was done!

Yeah, one day away from the weekend, take card and have a wonderful day.

Wednesday Wanderings


Here's to another  Wednesday  Wanderings post, as I am a bit tired from yesterday's activities.  Our daughter had to have a dental procedure and it tired me and her dad out, mostly me though.  I am up now about to run in my office for a few hours and then back home and I will have one of her friends come sit with her this afternoon.  Today's card is another Father's Day card that I put together yesterday using the Suit stamp set from V's Sweet Ideas.  The papers used were  just scraps from my stash, I colored the stamp with my Spectrum noir markers.  I just really can't get into coloring so you won't see a lot it on my projects!

Take care and have a great day.

Watch Card


Hello and Happy Monday, glad to be here for another day but feeling like the weekend goes by way too fast!

I did manage to play some so I have a few posts lined up for this week once I put the finishing touches on them.  Today I am sharing a watch card that I made, the inspiration for this card came from Father's Day Watch Card, as stated there are certainly other versions but this is the video that I watched.  She did two different variations in the video but I only had items in my stash for one of them.  The papers that I used are scraps from a 6x6 school themed  paper pad (don't have the name handy right now).  I cut the clock/watch face from a piece of card stock from an old DCWV paper stack called HOME and used a piece of brown ribbon for the band.  The stamped sentiment is from V's Sweet Ideas, I ordered the Suit Up stamp set and it arrived in the mail on Saturday so I used it for this card.

I am sharing today's card for the June challenge over at Mema's Crafts, I was so sorry to read that this would be her final challenge but her blog will remain open.  I am also sharing it for Challenge #203 - Super Scraps Saturday over at Hiding in my Craft Room.

Take care and have a wonderful week.

School Dance


Hello Sunday, today I am sharing another LO from my daughter's school album.  Last Wednesday the  school hosted their 8th grade dance (Mardi Gras themed).  I didn't get to go inside the school as I was heading to a meeting.  Originally my daughter said that she did not want to go to the dance so when we were dress shopping for the moving on ceremony we only purchased one dress (turns out she didn't wear that one on Thursday either). So last weekend we had to go dress shopping again.  We mother's do what we have to do so I pulled it off.

The glittered base is from Colorbok, the washi tape is some that I ordered from Pick Your Plum, I use some brads to help secure it, a few gems, the mask is a sticker, the title and other embellishments are  cuts from the Formal Occasion cricut cartridge.  I think I will add the date and some journaling.

Take care and have a wonderful week.
