Rainy Rainy Day

It is so gorgeous here right now....rained last night and showers rolling in all morning.  I love this weather a few times a year...always makes me appreciate the weather in Southern California after I've been to another climate. 

It's my friend, Christina's Birthday today so I made her a cute and simple card.

My card:
My neice turned 6 this week and we threw her a Flamingo themed party. Kept it pretty simple with just family and a few friends. So much fun...found most of the items at the Dollar Store than fudged them a bit to make them blend in with the theme.
My niece displaying her ring my sister got her at the Queen Bee Market from Love Stitched.
My son's and their favorite girl cousin (okay their only girl cousin)
My niece looked so lovely in her dress from Lemon Tree Studio. Love everything in that shop.
Happy White Wednesday!! I created this sign for sale at the Queen Bee Market and it was snatched right up. Miss it..one of those items I thought I would keep if it didn't sell. Cest la vie

Queen Bee Market Utah Post 2

Now that I've been home for a bit I finally feel like I can relax a bit after catching up on laundry, dishes and all the other little things that pile up when you leave home for a few days. A few pictures of my booth...I had a double space this time around so my first time working with a space that size. I think it turned out pretty good however slightly overpacked so I have no idea how I would have fit all that in a space half that size.

Queen Bee Utah Post 1

The past 48 hours have been a whirlwind. My sister and I drove up to Thanksgiving Point, Utah for the Queen Bee Market at SNAP!. The drive was a bit long and I think I now know every lyric to Katy Perrys "look at me". e
The venue was so adorable! The Show Barn was just perfect and packed by the time we opened.
v
Sweet Old Stuff booth...love the vintage industrial look.
Jeka Tree had the most amazing bohemian style bags and accessories. My sister got this super hip purse and I couldn't resist the iPad case. The show was so great and the gals that run it as usual make you feel so invited. love it! Will be posting pictures of my booth soon!

Big Top Circus Party

This past weekend we had my eldest son's Birthday party at the Park.
Under the Big Top Circus theme!
It was a blast however the wind was in full force so my Photo Booth kept falling down and popcorn kept escaping out of the containers. So much fun to finally get this party together. All the printables are from RV Parties







My son and neice were fascinated with a few squirrel holes and got nice and close.



Took my Photo Booth pictures and inserted them into PhotoBoother and created the Thank You Cards with the strips in them.

Tomorrow is my son's Birthday and I finished all the preparations last night so I got started on my neice's Birthday party. She is in love with Birds....especially Flamingos. So we are doing a pink flamingo theme....here is a cute moodboard I found....so stinking cute!

Wild Animals

Today the family and I headed out for the Zoo Safari Park. Love that place it was slightly overcast so hardly any crowds. The Butterfly Jungle was amazing (only happens for about two weeks every year). William cried when the lady at the Bird Show didn't pick him to go on stage. Poor guy.
Before we headed out today my baby decided he needed some Fiber...so cute!




Created a few cards....First one combining two challenges:
Pals Paper Arts Color Challenge


Stampin 411 Sketch Challenge



This particular card will be going to my neice who will be celebrating her 6th Birthday this month. Crazy how time flies.

Second card also combining two challenges:
Mojo Monday Sketch


Paper Players Color Challenge


Shabby Chic Sweetness


A beautiful treasury to inspire and bring on a beautiful day!

One Layout...Two Cards

Had fun last night working on my card for Mojo Monday's sketch challenge of the week. Also worked on cleaning out all my retired cardstock....as a demonstrator I rarely use it and now is the time to just create a bunch of cards with it and get rid of the rest.

Mojo Monday 235 Sketch:


My card:


Card #2


I'm going to miss Poppy Parade....love it. However I defintely won't miss Concord Crush. Never really used it and honestly not one of my favorite colors.

Hop Hop Hop to Easter


Easter is almost upon us and I am not ready. I have a few little decorative touches for the holiday in my craft room and that is pretty much it. Purchased a few PlayDoh eggs and of course Cadbury Caramel Eggs for my hubby. Aside from Christmas, Easter is my next favorite holiday. Celebrating the resurrection of my Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
