Riley bring you a chocolate chip cookie recipe....


Hello! Its hot as can be in TX right now. The heat can just zap the energy right out of you. I am trying to get motivated to make some cards but would rather go get a pedicure...who knows what the day will bring. I made this recipe card as a "make something flat" challenge from Hanna Stamps awhile ago! I love the way this turned out. I will have to try the cookie recipe out but I don't think I will be turning on the oven today.

I am excited about my upcoming trip home to see my family and of course my favorite local stamp store. Nothing but stamps well and some paper but mostly stamps! Yeah! Unfortnately with my trip right around the corner so is my friend's to travel home for three weeks! UGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH what will I do without my stampin buddy to hang with on Saturday nights???? Hope you enjoy the recipe card.....and the rest of your Sunday!

I don't do Moosework.......


Hello! I am enjoying two days off but haven't gotten too much stamping done. I have started coloring the little rainy days girl from MFT stamps. She just came in the mail yesterday. I don't know why the mail comes so late when you are expecting something. I will be scoping out the UPS man today with my STAMPIN UP order (the in colors are on their way)!
The card I am sharing today I made for my husband. He spent most of the weekend weeding and cleaning the back yard like a trooper in the TX heat. The yard looks gorgeous. I did clean too but he let me stay inside! I really love this moose stamp and think the saying is just too perfect with it!
Also b/c I would rather wear wrinkles than iron...not my favorite chore.

Hope you have a great day!

Also check out my friends blogs who just made it to round two of the HANNA Guest designer challenge over on Splitcoast.

Remember me?


Hello everyone...well I have been on a much needed break from blogging. I love doing it and am glad to be back. I am so excited about two new purchases that are hopefully on their way to my house. I purchased the in color pack and new ribbons from Stampin up! (YEAH) They look bright and fun and I can't wait to create with them. The new in color ribbons are POLKA DOTTED!!!! Yeah....a good polka dotted ribbon can always make you smile. I also ordered the newest set from My Favorite Things www.mftstamps.com and I have to say....I think it is going to be one of MY FAVORITE THINGS!!! Check out Susan's blog www.susiestampalot.blogspot.com for the awesome card she made with it. It is the card with the girl in the YELLOW raincoat with the saying "These Boots are Made for Splashing!". GREAT JOB SUSAN!!!!

Well...I know today is the big day for the Hanna Stamps design team deadline and I have two friends that are in the running! Four leaf clovers for both of you for the bestest of luck in getting the design team spot!!!

My card today is using the Bikeabella stamp and the urban prarie paper by Basic Grey. I really like the way it turned out. Hope you have a great weekend!
