Luau Party

This is Todd's Graduation Party! We had fun with the Luau Theme! This is just a sampling of the great Luau outfits that our guests wore. Thanks to everyone for coming and I hope you had a great time!

Hole in One!

Last Saturday, my father-in-law, Dean Johnson, hit a hole in one on the golf course! We are so very proud of him! Congratulations! That is quite an accomplishment!





I was so happy for him, that I made him this card to celebrate the event. I was inspired by Kazan's Sketch #21 at 2 sketches 4 you.

Happy Birthday!

Monday, March 16th is my friend's birthday. She loves bright colors, so I made this card especially for her. I used a rubber stamp for the flip-flops and colored them in with some of the brightest markers I could find.

Thanksgiving Cards

I was busy today making these Thanksgiving cards for a swap on The Crafty Table message board.


This first one is made from a page sketch by pagemaps.com. I'm entering it into their contest as well.



This second one is from a sketch on the Taylored Expressions Blog. It's also for a challenge that Stacey posted for the online crop over at All Moments Remembered.


I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Finally Fall Colors!

Fall has finally come to our home!


Along with the fall colors, came a strange man in a purple duct tape jacket.

This is really Todd's cousin, Stevie. He came over to work on some Physics homework with Todd and also to play Rock Band.
His girlfriend, Jessica is in the background.

Boo! A Halloween Card

BOO! Here is a Halloween card that I made:



I made it for a Halloween Card Swap on The Crafty Table message board.

The Inspiration for it came from a sketch featured on the Limelight Papercrafts Blog.

My Cosmos Flowers

I planed a Cosmos plant from seeds earlier in the summer. I thought it was too late to plant the free packet of Cosmos seeds I received in the mail, but I tried anyway. Well, here it is, October, and they bloomed!




I posted some more pictures HERE.
