Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween!
Today is one week since my surgery, and
I am sharing the cards that I made for our grandkids
 For the girls I used a Unity Stamp because I fell in love with that darling owl
 Both girls have the same middle name - named after Dale's mother, Katherine.
For the boys.  Not sure, but Tyler might think that he is getting too old for Halloween cards, but as long as I can I will keep making them for him.
Hoping that maybe I can sit out front for just a bit to greet the neighbor kids as they trick or treat tonight.  We will see how it goes.
Thank you all for you well wishes on my behalf!
Seriously now ladies - TODAY IS THE LAST DAY to take advantage of these 2 deals!!

Cherry Nice!

Sunday, October 29, 2017
Today is Gracie's 12th birthday!  Happy Birthday to our Sweet Gracie-Girl!!
We had to celebrate a little early, but that never bothers this sweet girl!
This is the card that I made for Gracie for her birthday (inspired/cased by Tanya Bell, a talented demonstrator from Australia)
Gracie collected the cute little Shopkins for several years and has accumulated MANY of these. This Shopkin is named Cherry Nice Cupcake. 
Gracie doesn't play (much) with the Shopkins anymore, but when I saw this cute punch art I thought she would still really like it.  
In fact, Gracie adopted the name Gram-Jam for me from one of her Shopkins

Here are the products that I used on Gracie's Card:

Gracie got to choose the restaurant of her choice.  This year she chose to go to On The Border
This is the outfit that we bought Gracie for her birthday

I love these cards because they combine my favorite little piggy (THIS LITTLE PIGGY Stamp Set) and the very cool Coffee Cafe` Stamp Set/Coffee Break Designer Series Paper  Even though I am not a coffee drinker *gasp! I still appreciate everyone else love for it.

I know it's kind of crazy, but this is my favorite paper in the package of the COFFEE BREAK Designer Series Paper, and because of that I struggle using it because I just want to save and hoard it all.  What a cute card, though, to feature it!!
Also featured on this card:

Happy First Birthday, Miss Lily!

Tuesday, October 24, 2017
Our Sweet Little Lily is ONE YEAR OLD today!!
Where in the world has this time gone??!!
This is the birthday card that I made for her (inspired by Ann Schach) using the LITTLE CUTIES stamp set.
So adorable isn't it!! I love to copy talented stampers!
I decided to  make this matching box
 And I did the Poppin' Box Technique.
 When you open up the tray, this cube pops out!
I thought it was perfect since Lily has 4 letters in her name.
I cut the letters out using the LARGE LETTERS DIES and the Sweet Sugarplum Glimmer Paper that we received during Sale a bration earlier this year, and behind it is the DAZZLING DIAMONDS GLIMMER PAPER. 
Since I had the letters I thought I should do something with them so I put them on the envelope to her card.
Since I having my back surgery today we celebrated Lily's birthday a little bit early.  Please enjoy pictures of our darling Lily!
 Such a big girl sitting up to the table and eating big girl food
 A crown for the little Princess
 She was totally into the cupcake that mommy made

 She does this cute little scrunchy nose thing that makes us laugh every time
A pretty dress for a pretty girl!
Lily is standing on her own, walking along furniture and eating like a champ, and so many more accomplishments in her first year.
Since I made Lily's card and Poppin' Box earlier this year, several of the items used are retired, but HERE is a list of Stampin' Up! products that I used..
