Some Family Photos

We did family photos this past December.  I generally don't like family photos but since I have lost 105 lbs in the past 8 months, I thought it was time.  Our daughter Madi Grace is going to be 3 this summer and time sure flies.  We had a WONDERFUL Christmas as both our families were here at our house in Idaho.  Hope everyone else had a wonderful Christmas!

New Years, Yes I chopped all my hair off

In the spirit of Valentine's Day

Here are two other things I made today for Valentine's Day. 

1) I found these adorable jars at Michaels, filled them with red hots and then put a little holder on them that you can either put a gift card in or some water flavors.  Something fun for a co-worker, friend, teacher and so much more.

2) I did a Halloween bag like this but this time I made it into a Valentine's Day bag. 

Thanks for Looking

For A Friend

I am having lunch today with a friend that is having a hard time right now so I thought I would make her something.  This box is similar to Becky Roberts cupcake box, but changed.  I used clear sheets on the box and lid so my friend can see what is inside.  I used the stamp that says, "Sometimes you just need to know that someone really cares and that someone is me" from the Occations Quotes Stamp Set.  I just tied ribbon on the sides and filled with fun heart candy.  I am sure she will enjoy it. 

Thanks for stopping by

Olivia the Pig Invitation

Hi Stampers,

So my daughter LOVES Olivia the pig so much that I was online searching for Valentine's Day cards that are Olivia and decided that since she loves her so much I would make an Olivia invitation to her Valentines' Day party.  I used a couple punches but mostly free-handed Olivia.

Red Hot gift box

Hi Stampers,

I am back!!!  Starting to post at least once a week, if not twice or more.  This box was a design template I saw on someone's blog and I just can't find where.  So if you see this, thank you for the template.  I filled it with red hots because those are so Valentines Day.  Wrapped it with a red ribbon and then used a stamp that says: Loving you is easy to do.  Hope you enjoy it.  You can also put cookies or other candies in the box too. 

I am working on invitations for a Valentines' Day party we are having for my daughter and her little friends, so I will post those as I get them done.

I want to take a second to introduce my newest recruit. Her name is Amy Brown and she is a militar wife like me.  Amy is also stationed at Mountain Home Air Force Base and is super excited to be a demonstrator.  Look forward to seeing what Amy is designing.  Welcome Amy to the family!!!!
