Karli Graduates!

 Happy Tuesday and so glad you could stop by. My Grand Kids are here today. School will be starting soon. I think they start school way to early. When I was in school we didn't go back until September. I thought I would share a few things with you, while they are watching a Cartoon. 

My Great Niece Karli Graduated from High School (She grew up way to fast). Makes me feel old. First thing I want to share is a Card that I made her. (The Butterflies are her School Colors).


                                                      

For her Card I cut the Graduation Cap from the  Cricut Cartridge A Childs Year. Added a Black Brad. Also used the Butterfly Die from Stampin Up, S.U. Large Oval and Scalloped Oval Punches, Congratulations Stamp is from a set of foam stamp that I got as a Christmas Gift and the Swirl Stamp is from Bo Bunny.

Karli is going to be going to College in Florida. So I thought I would make her something that she could use. So I Crocheted her a Set of Coasters.I used the colors that she has her apartment in.  This was my first time making Coasters. They were easy and Fun to make.


                                                        

                                                         
                                                       


I also made a Gift Box. Used my Martha Stewart Score Board. (Love that you can make boxes with it). I used Tan Cardstock. Rolled Close to Cocoa Ink on it using the So Swirly Jumbo Wheel Stamp from Stampin Up and used Tempting Turquoise on the little flowers. Flower comes from the Borique Motiff Stamp Set from S.U.  



                                                     

Congratulations Karli

Baby Pooh Card and Princess Scarlett

Hi all you Crafty People! Glad you could stop by. Thought I would post a Card that I just made for my new Great Nephew ( Maverick Ridge). Oh, He is so Sweet.

I made his Card using the Cricut Cartridges Pooh Font and Pooh and Friends. We all have seen Pooh wear his red shirt. But I thought he should wear a Blue Shirt. I thought it turned out Cute.   




                                                   

I also thought I would share a picture of my Grand Daughter Scarlett. She got Princess in our County 4-H Pageant.

I don't do tents anymore. Wish I had a Camper. There were so many of the family that couldn't make it this year.

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.
