Exciting!!!

No project on this post.  I just wanted to share my excitement.  My hubby let me spoil myself a little!  I LOVE when this happens!  I am getting some sweet packages that are going to be arriving in the mail and it really does feel like, 'Christmas in July!'  I have Papertrey Ink Kraft paper on it's way (always a favorite of mine.)  I have some cricut cartridges coming, one of those would be the pop up cartridge that I have been trying to track down for months!!! It is always sold out.  I got my Bow Easy and I am already head over heels for it!  Such perfect little bows.  AND... I had over 1500 cricut rewards points so I got a cartridge and a silicone cover for my Gypsy!  WA-Hoo!!! I am so excited! :)









I am now singing in my head...     "These are a few of my favorite things!"

Birthday Card - Pearls




I made this awesome Birthday card and I got the background idea from the blog, "Scrappin Navy Wife," she comes up with the coolest things.  Basically I took a normal piece of white cardstock covered it with music notes I cut out from contact paper.  I stuck the contact paper on my cardstock and then covered my paper with Tim Holtz Distress ink.  Once dried I sprayed with ranger ink perfect pearl mist to give it a shiny look.  You can't really see it in the picture but it is really pretty in person.  Once it was all dried I took the contact paper off and had the cute little pattern!  Love it!  My Birthday cake came from the Sweet Treats cart and I used stickles to make it all sparkly!

This is a cute little doggy card... Not sure what to use it for yet... Maybe if I was mad at my husband one day I could say something like you are in the dog house.  Ha ha!  Just teasin!  I would never tell my hubby that.  But it is a cute card.
