I made something!!

Hello everyone! I have finally had a chance to create! I told my husband this evening that I wanted to stamp something tonight and being the great guy he is, he took the girls down in the basement and they've been playing for over an hour now! It's been really, really, really nice.......really.

So.....this is what I have come up with. I had plans to make a card...but for some reason I didn't feel like it and went the scrapbook route.

This is a 12x12 using Kraft, Pale Plum, Perfect Plum, and Close to Cocoa prints dsp. I used the new hostess set that all of us demonstrators got for a Christmas gift "Time Well Spent" and just colored the flowers in with a white gel pen and close to cocoa marker. I added the "C" monogram cut with my Cricut and tied some ribbons onto it. I added some scallops using our scallop circle punch (this is the new technique I've been seeing everywhere the last few days)

I wasn't sure how it was going to come together, but I'm satisfied. (especially after being less than crafty these last few weeks)

Thanks for stopping by...have a great evening!!

She's Here!!

Lydia Grace
born on 12/27/07 @ 9:20 am, 8lbs 7oz, 19 1/4 in.

We're all doing well here. Big sister is so proud of her baby! You can see more pictures on our family blog: www.redmanfamilyblog.blogspot.com.

It's been an interesting adjustment here at our house. Cassidy seems to be really moody and seems cranky and we think that it was because of Christmas last week and the fact that she was with grandma & grandpa (who don't know how to say "no"). My husband calls this time "deprogramming" because she has to get used to being at home again. Hopefully this phase only lasts a short time :)

Lydia has been a super baby! The last 2 nights she has only been up twice and sleeps very well in her crib. So now we're finally catching up on our sleep!

Have a Happy New Year! Thanks for stopping by!

Still waiting...

Yes, that's right (sigh) I'm still here and waiting (impatiently) for this baby to come. We've got 3 days until my due date and really really hoping to go into labor soon. I had a visit with my doctor last week and found out that since I'm going for a VBAC, I cannot be induced. Something that I didn't know about and kind of bums me out. That means if I do not go into labor by my 41st week, I'll have another c-section that I will not look forward to. Although-I did hear that if you opt for a cs without laboring, the recovery is much easier, a little reassuring, I guess.

So here I am waiting and watching the minutes go by. I did get my new Stampin' UP! Catalog today in the mail which brightened my day :) It is so beautiful...I cannot wait for you all to see it if you haven't yet. I'll be taking that to the hospital to memorize every page, I will guarantee that!

I made this little journal notebook this afternoon. It uses our new Ginger Blossom DS papers. Aren't they gorgeous?!! I just love the color combo. For the letter 'j' I actually printed a mirror image of a 'j' on my computer onto the backside of my ds paper and card stock and cut it out with my paper snips.

Thanks for stopping by...Enjoy your Christmas. I'll keep you posted about baby!!

Cricut Cartridge Variations

The other day Vera asked which Cricut cartridge I used on my scrapbook pages. Just wanted to let everyone know that it was the Plantin Schoolbook Font cartridge but I used the "Tall Ball" option, which I love.
So in this image I have shown all of the different options for the font on this particular cartridge. Hope this helps!!

My First Time

Remember a few weeks ago when I won the contest over at Papertrey? Well, I finally got my prizes (Snowflake Serenade, Spiral Blossom, Eat Cake-Thanks Nichole!!) and finally used one of the sets! I have to admit...this was the very first time I have used acrylic stamps! I know, I know...you're thinking: get with it, right? LOL!

I made this card for my parent's 37th anniversary which is today...Happy Anniversary Mom & Dad!!

Don't know if you can tell but each little snowflake in the background has little dots of glitter. I just love glittery snowflakes. And the snowflake in the scallop circle has dazzling diamonds all over it. I also used Lauren's Saturday Sketch from last week...such an easy layout!

Trying to catch up...

Is there such a thing as catching up in the scrapbooking world?

Here's a bunch of pages I made recently. I guess I work best under pressure! (no pun intended LOL)
Not much stamping here, but used my Cricut and a bunch of Splitcoast sketches.

Getting closer...

Hey everyone!
I'm so sorry it's been a while since I've posted anything. I will promise you I've got some projects that I've been working on that I'll post later today.

We woke up to snow this morning and it's so pretty! Now I'm in the Christmas mood!!

I wanted to show you some pictures that my SIL took last weekend. There are so many good ones it is hard to choose. This family picture of all 3 of us makes my neck look really fat, and I've tried to smooth it out in my PSE3 program, but it ends up looking really bad. Would any of you have any spare time to fix it for me???

I'm at 37 weeks now, officially full term. YAY! She can come anytime now :) Everyone has been telling me I look small for being 3 weeks away from my due date, but I really feel like I'm as big as a house!

I'll be back later with some stuff!

Crystal Lite Container

Here's a quick project I made a few weeks ago to show at a party. The hostess requested some cheap gifts for teachers, aides, and others. I thought that this would be fun to fill with homemade candies, or cookies (would have to be small) or any type of chocolate...Easy!

I used:
Stamps: Snow Flurries, Happy Everything
Paper: Wintergreen DP
Ink: always artichoke
Accessories: Always artichoke grosgrain, celery brad
Tools: Sm & Lg tag punches, Lg circle punch, Slit punch (for scallops)

Thanks!

Hey guys...
Just wanted to thank those of you who commented on my blog candy. That was a lot of fun to read! I love to hear all of your stories. I have some ideas now of some things I'd like to do with my own kids.
It is also nice to meet some of you that read my blog that I didn't even know about!

Have a great evening...I'll be back on Thursday with some projects.
