Let Our Story Begin

Our blog has been severely neglected. But, we are hoping to change that! Rebecca and I have joined the 'Project Life' band wagon and hope to share that with you soon. I personally started Project Life as a way to try and catch up on my scrapbooks and to document my family's story as we "write" it. I have realized that, as much as I love traditional scrapbooking, I often struggle with creating layouts and embellishing in a timely manner. While I work on my Project Life albums, I hope to be inspired to work on traditional scrapbooking again. For now, I am totally inspired in Project Life and can't wait to share what I have already created!

XOXO,

Deanne

Where has February gone?!? This month was jam packed with birthdays, Valentine's Day, basketball, ballet, a midterm and potty training for me! Can you say crazy busy?!?! And I looved every minute of it! OK, maybe not the midterm... I am so excited that on top of the everyday craziness I was able to spend some time making cards for those I love! Here are a few Valentines I made! Hope you enjoy! XOXO Deanne

Good morning! Can you believe it's already February?! I wanted to jump online real quick and share with you a very simple card I made for my niece. She turns 2 this week and for Halloween last year she was dressed up as a baby super woman, so when I saw these stickers in my stash, I thought of her! Enjoy & I hope you have a wonderful weekend! Make sure to come back next week for our Valentines goodies for our kids classes!!

Here we are, 2013... Time sure does fly! While life is keeping me insanely busy, I am still trying to take time to do what I love, crafting! I have high goals for my scrapbooks and am being quite ambitious when it comes to cards, DIY projects and other crafts! So stay tuned! I made a few cards and projects last year that I never got post and I wanted to share them now...

This was a Christmas card that I made for 2012!

This is a Halloween card that I made for my Godson!

Here's a birthday card for my Godson! He's really into trains! XOXO Deanne

Spoil yourself today...

Is the sentiment that I used on my card that I am posting for you today. I haven't been able to create anything lately, my Imagine is not working and last night I found out that I ran out of adhesive! So I thought I would share a card that I had made in a card making class. It's says "spoil yourself today". This card goes out to all of our followers, weather it be a mini-shopping trip, a quick mani/pedi, or even a trip to your favorite coffee shop, we want you to "spoil yourself today" and have a fabulous weekend!

❤Rebecca :)

Halloween Treats!

Good morning! Happy belated Halloween! I wanted to post some pictures of Halloween goodie bags my son and I made the night before Halloween. I wanted to post this last night but we were all so tired from having a great time trick or treating and enjoying a fall festival that a local church put on! Here are some treats we handed out to his classmates...we gave his teachers caramel apples drizzled with white and semi-sweet chocolate! Well I'm off to make baby shower and birthday cards, have a great day!

MCT Pinterest Inspired Challenge

Where has the time gone? I know Rebecca and I have been crafting on and off, but finding time to actually sit down and post on our blog has been quite a challenge. Over at My Creative Time For Me, Emma has a fun new challenge going on. I'm sure I missed the deadline, but I wanted to share what I made! Here are the details for this challenge: 1. Use Pinterest for your inspiration by making ANYTHING crafty OR even if you see CUTE cupcakes/food items you want to try, I mean ANYTHING you see HERE that inspires YOU! 2. Please put the LINK of the website where you found your inspiration on your blogs! PLEASE do NOT post the original picture of your "Inspiration", ONLY the link to their website! 3. Please link your projects HERE below this post. 4. Deadline for this challenge is on Tuesday, September 4th @ midnight! 5. Last, but certainly not least......HAVE FUN!;) My daughter started her first season of t-ball this month and her first game is this weekend. Let me just say that she is a girly girl from head to toe! So we have been trying to get creative with accessories and "blinging" out her uniform. I saw the cutest hair bows on pinterest and knew that I wanted to try to make them for her! This is the link http://thefrugalgirls.com/2011/06/how-to-make-korker-bows.html that I found on making the korker hair bows and here is what I did...

I had so much fun making these! I will be making more soon and will hopefully get some more pictures up to share!
