Scarlett Graduates Kindergarten!!!

Hi all, So glad you could stop by. Earlier this morning my Grand Daughter Scarlett Graduated Kindergarten. She has been so excited. She has been counting down the days. Everyday she would tell me, Mamaw only (What ever day it was)  days left and I won't be a baby no more. So Sweet, She will always be my Baby.

Thought I would share a few pictures from today. As Scarlett said when we were leaving it's the "Best Day Ever".




                                                                               

She's the dark haired girl in the center. Can you see the Excitment in her face?



                                                                              

They were all getting a little sqwirmy in their chairs having to wait so long.




                                                                         

Yay, She received her Diploma!!!




                                                                           

  Enjoying some Cookies and Juice after Graduation.



Also thought I would share a picture of the little gifts that I made for the Teachers. They are little Tissue Holders for them to sit on their desk. I had made another one to that had Apples on  it. But I forgot to take a picture.

                                                                                 

 These are so easy to make. Used Stampin Up Old Olive Cardstock and Stampin Up Cranberry Crisp. I can't remember where I got the Alphabet Paper. I wish I had some more. For the opening I used the Small Oval Punch and Scallop Oval Punch from S.U.  Thought these were perfect for their desk. The Teachers Loved them.

Going to have Scarlett a Graduation Party this coming Weekend. I will share the Graduation Card that I made her then.  Thanks so much for stopping by. Hope you have a wonderful Day!



Congratulations Scarlett River, So proud of you!!!

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Hello all you Crafter's and Happy Mother's Day to all you Mommy's to. Yesterday went to the Church. They had a Mother's Day Banquet. Had so much Fun and It was so pretty. The colors were Black and White with Hot Pink.  My Sister Christy is in over decorating. She always does such an Amazing job. They had a sharing time that if you wanted to come up and talk about your Mother you could. My little 6 year Grand Daughter Scarlett went right up there and shared how much she loves her Mom. Saying how Beautiful her Mommy is and that they sleep together and that her Mommy tells her that Jesus loves her. It was just Precious. Just wished I had brought my Video Camcorder.


Thought I would Share a picture of me with my Beautiful Daughter Jade and my Beautiful Precious Grand Daughter Scarlett River.




                                                                               

Also wanted to Share the Card that I made my Mom for Mother's Day. I used the Stampin Up Stamp Set (The Art of Life). The Cardstock and Inks that I used are Stampin Ups,  Summer Sun,Purely Pomegranate and Green Galore. S.U. Oval and Scallop Oval Punches and Fiskars Scallop Border Punch.



                                                                           

My Sister Tonda's Birthday was yesterday and I made her the same Card just used a Birthday Stamp.

My Yard Sale finds!!!

When I was a little girl and would visit my Aunt Betty. I would love to look at her little house with a Thermometer on it. If it was a Sunny Day the Woman would be out and if it was a rainy day the man would come out with his umbrella. I always wanted one. So Friday I went to a yard sale and there was one sitting on a table. I couldn't believe my eyes. I picked it up and it was only a dollar. Whoooo Hoooo!!!
I'm so excited!!! When I got it the woman was out and now it has been raining and the man is out. It works but I don't know how it works. Have you ever seen one???

Thanks so much for stopping by. Hope you have a Great Day and don't forget to stop by those Yard Sales. You never know what you might find.   Cindy  :o)

Happy Easter and little Easter Treat Baskets!

Hi, Hope you all are having a wonderful Easter. I thought I would do a quick post sharing some little Easter Treat Baskets that I made. I made the Brown one for my Daughter. Used Kraft Cardstock. Rubbed Close to Cocoa Ink on the Square Lattice Embossing Folder from Stampin Up and ran the Cardstock through the Cuttlebug. Sponged the edges. Used two Brown Brads to hold the handles.

                                                                               

                                   
                                                                   
                                                                             

Made a Blue one for my Grandson. Used Bashful Blue Ink with Bashful Blue Cardstock and Blue Brads.
The Pink one I made for my Grand Daughter. Used Almost Amethyst Ink on it and used White Brads.
They thought they were really cute and they are pretty simple to make. I just added some Hershey Kisses.  I think these would be so Cute to have on the table for Easter Dinner to give to everyone.

Easter Cards and Winner!!!

Hi and welcome to my Blog. Wanted to Share some pictures of the Easter Cards that I made for my two little Grand Children. They are Simple, nothing Fancy. I didn't even use my Cricut Machine. For my Grand Daughters Card. I just Sponged the Sky and Grass. Stamped the cute little Silhouette of a Girl. Punched out three Flowers and added Pearls. The pink Cardstock I did stamp with a Stampin Up Stamp Set. I can't remember what it's called now.



                                                                             

For my Grandsons Card, The Bunnies Face was made with my Martha Stewart Circle Cutter. Ears made with Large and Small Oval Punches from Stampin Up. Nose made with a tiny Heart Punch,Hand drew the mouth. Added Hemp Twine for the Whiskers. Added some googly eyes. I seriously think I made these two Cards in record time. They were that Simple. Simple is a good thing. Right!!!




                                                                                   

I want to thank you all that left the Super nice Comments about my Crocheted Owl Phone Holder that I had made for the Hoo's Ready For Spring Owl Hop. I was so surprised that you all liked it as much as I do. I really did have a fun time making it.
