B-day card for my little Bro

I made this card for my brother, his birthday is on Monday.

Close up of front:

I googled the farmer image and downloaded it from the web. Colored with regular map pencils used my center point function on my cricut to cut the squared image using my mini mongram cart and shadowed it with the black square. Happy Birthday was cut using the Tear Drop cart. Distressed and inked the edges and added a rope border punch at the bottom.

Inside of the card:

Sentiment is computer generated using scrapbook plus program. I used the rope border punch on the bottom distressed the edges and inked with black and a little doodling around the frame. OMgosh sometimes I'm such a blonde. lol I just realized I use the wrong hey should have been Hay!

Eagle v's Dragons

Good game yesterday between Tiny Mites Eagles v's Southwest Dragons. Game tied
24-24.

Quote from Tiny Mites head coach weplay.com
Mike Finkel commented on the Pleasanton Jr. Eagles’ profile:

“Saturday 9/12/09: Rain at the Eagles' Nest for most of the games against the Dragons (and Vikings PW). The Tiny Mites and PeeWees won by default, even though the scores were tied. The Jr.PW's came up a little short. Mitey Mites got their first win!”

Tiny Mites won by default because the tiny mite Dragon team did not have enough players too play but we like a good game so the Dragon's took some of thier older players from their Pee Wee's and the game was on. I think our little mites did a great job considering half their team were older players!

Go EAGLES GO!

Eagles v's Bulldogs

CTMH card

Okay so finally I get to some girly stuff tonight.

I got this card kit in the mail a few weeks ago from my CTMH rep Ms. Jen, and decided to put it together I inked around the edges with cocoa ink cut out the leaves and flowers and pop dotted it, added a sentiment with chocolate ink. Added some bling with a green rhinestone in center of button and of course added some scrap ribbon I had laying around just to add something differen't from the original creation Jen had.

Thanks Jen for the gift!

Go Eagles!

That's Derek!

Eagles won there first home game today(on there brand new field).

Derek also caught his first pass of the game!

Eagles 24- Bulldogs 6

Football pin

I made this football with my son's # on it to wear to his football games. It was cut @ 3" using Sports Mania cart shadow and football feature. Outlined with black sharpie and embossed with my sizzix. 88 was cut @ 1" using Tear Drop cart and adhered martha stewart green glitter. After everything dried I laminated cut out and adhered a pin to the back.

Officially Football Season!

Derek is # 88 this year, this was a pic from last year, but I just loved it!

It's officially football season for our household. Derek had his first game yesterday.

Eagles 24- Cougars 7

Already undefeated. LOL!

Thought I would share a few pics of yesterday's game!

Derek relaxin before the big game!

In line waiting to be weighed! Official rules!

The run through!

There's my little eagle #88 at the end squating!

Scalloped purse Fold out card

I had a last minute birthday party after my son's football game yesterday and had to come up with something fast. So I relied on my faithful Design Studio and went straight to the Custom Crops website to see which wonderful project I could download and cut out in a jiff! It was a 12 year old having the b-day so of course something girly would be the answer, and there I found it the cutest little card purse, Perfect! Thank you Susan for taking the time and sharing this design. You can view Susan's original design here. I altered the center a bit instead of the flower I cut out the birthday girls initials and added some bling to the letter and flower.

Instead of a gift she preferred getting money so this was absolutely perfect to stash some cash in the the little purse!

Since I was in a bit of a hurry, I literaly flew out the door when I finished it, therefore I didn't get to take a picture of the inside of the card, sorry.

Embelished School Supplies

First Day of school is tomorrow and this is what I spent my day doing. Of course as most of you know all the supplies need to be labeled with your child's name. So to add some fun to it I took out my cricut and Mickey and Friends font and got busy. Nothing to extravagant but simple.

Personalized Binder Notebook

Personalized Spiral Notebook

Simple School Box

My son may only be starting 2nd grade, little smart man asked for a dictionary to add to his school supply list.
So of course mommy thought how cute it would be to make a book cover for it.

I had these extra stars left over from another project to add a little extra to the simple bookcover.

Teacher Project

My sister-n-law asked me to make signs for her classroom for differen't centers that she has set up.

This is what I came up with and she loved them.

The bus is for the road to success!


The next three signs where a surprise I did for her to hang at the front of her classroom door.
