New layout created using files from QMC
This layout uses a few files from the last QMC that Chris magically creates every quarter. Chris designs the most amazing files but I really like her “Sparkle” files. This layout uses CD00786 – Holiday Sparkles and CD00790 – I Believe .
Styles and textures have been added to the cutter files to add dimension and interest.

Puppy Love is Real!
|
You know I love using bits of Visual Designs by Chris’ files to create layouts. On this one, I used two and then some other mixed in media. I used the hearts from #CD00654 The Kitchen is the Heart of the Home. BUT, because I am a frugal scrapper, I was using scraps and didn’t get a large enough piece… uggghhh…. so, the heart to the right had the edge cut off. A popped up punched heart easily fixed that. Whew! And added a little texture to the layout. Then I used the “LOVE” from #CD00690 Love the Arts. I could not totally ungroup the files to just get the word so I cut it as close to the bottom of the WB screen as possible and then trimmed it out. Love it! Puppy is cut using my Quickutz Star alphabet. “is Real!!” are stickers from Paper Studio (Hobby Lobby). Bling: heart and butterfly bling from a gem pack in the $1 bin at Michaels. A few little gems on the punched heart are Paper studio. The swirly bling is Prima. Drew in the butterfly antennaes and wrote Valentine’s Day 2010 at the top with a black 01 pen from Prismacolor. My favorite black pens ever!
Happy New Year to everyone!

Christmas Day…. & Secret Sale
First .. I posted the Annual Secret Sale in the store. 50% off all my cutter files. You can find more info here. I run this sale annually for those wanting to finish out the new year with a few files or for those who get new machines. Thank you to those faithful friends who reminded me about it. Your to cute and I appreciate your support.
On to life…
A few pics from Christmas Day. I am not sure I was awake because I didn’t get very many pics the first part of the day. So I plan to add the other side of family at the New Year’s Eve Party. but here are a few pics…
This is the huge amongo box from the Lego’s Police Station I posted the other day. huge box and hours of construction, but happy kiddo
This is my kiddo and niece playing there new DSi. I played with my kiddos the other night. Wow. loved it. I played the braing age game after and was tired. But fantastic. I thought this was a cut upside down pic.
My niece Pea and I. (Pea is her nickname for blog purposes. :)) Anyways. end of the day and she snuggled up next to me to ask me what Santa brought me in my stocking. to cute. and my hubby snapped a picture. In seeing this picture I realized my efforts to eat smaller portions and skip eating those things i really don’t care if I eat are working some. So on to this year with continued better habits. In the past I would have never posted a pic like this. now I have added it to the treasure trove of wonderful memories. yeah!
This is Pea’s brother. I haven’t come up with a name for him yet for the blog.. hmm.. His hair stands up like he is electrified at all times. He is super cute and talked all through the end of Christmas Eve mass cute. And that drink right there is some pomegranite and champagne thing everyone had a little of. I was driver so I didn’t partake but it looked super festive in the glass.
This is my Aunt Jill who opened up her home for the holiday dinner. More on her in another post. And yes that is a gold crown. My Mom was born in Liverpool England. Little british tradition in our family of Christmas crackers. Not the kind you eat, but they come with little paper hats of some kind in them. All of our holiday Christmas dinner pics has someone in these hats. It is fun and adds a merriment for sure to be sitting around a table with a ton of folks wearing hat crowns. haha. always fun!
And here we are in our crown. Oops I lost mine by this point. I donated it to a new visitor to our table. haha.
And here are the guys cleaning up still in their crowns. Like I said lots of merriment .. jokes.. giggles and happiness at Christmas dinner. We are definitely not a stuffy bunch.
Well thats my picture show for today. lots more to come.
Enjoy!

Baptism gift frame
My husband was asked to be a godfather for his cousin’s daughter, B. This was the frame I put together for her. It can be used with the prayer I inserted or the picture can be inserted. Mom told me the little girl’s room was primary colors. I really struggled with colors that were primary. I have a little boy so I so wanted to do purple or pink, but instead came up with these colors. We received a card in the mail the other day that said it was loved. I am glad. It was fun to make. I cut the B on my Klik-n-kut. and the rest are embellishments prebought. and the picture doesnt show it but there are pastel colored rubons all over it. You can just barely see hints of them. Enjoy!

Holiday Project .. QMC File
As is this time of year some of my QMC files come from things I need to create for the holidays. This was a file I created and am loading to the QMC. My mother-in-law loved it. Yeah! I bought a matted frame from walmart and cut the cutter file in two different colors and then went with the blue one. The maroon one made us just a little to pink. More time and I would have added some sparkle, but that might have been to much to. A lovely picture of my little family, but I might be biased. just a teensy bit of course.
Have a wonderful day!
Enjoy!

Favorite things 2010
First let me say. Thank you to my sister for getting this shot.
This year the ladies favorite things basket was again a ton of fun. Every year on Christmas Eve we get a bag filled with goodies that are our family members favorite things for the year. Mine was the canned goods. I had a box of about 21 jars and everyone got 2 or 3 jars. It was done by lottery because I didn’t have many of the same item, but a wide variety. Lots of wrangling for the jars they wanted. My favorite thing I learned this year was definitely canning. I think everyone in the family liked it lots to. The rest of the items ran the gamut of fancy hangers so your shirts don’t slip off. (yeah love these) to eco friendly cups, folders with bling for organizing, a homemade heat pack for the neck when it is stiff, salad hands for tossing salad or pasta, pedicure set in fantastic wild colors, fancy wine bottle stopper, and more. This is a great time to share the find and usually you learn something more about the person who gave it because everything comes with a story. The men do favorite things also only they don’t come with stories as in depth and giggly as ours. Just a lot of oh yeah that’s cool.. cool.. cool. nice.. or sometimes you can hear… “it really works” or “I wanted to try that”. All in all it is a lot of fun and is on a voluntary basis.
I saw this today and I loved it so had to share…

And I am now off to the shower. Seems our propane has run very low and we didn’t realize it. Hoping to get in the last hot shower before it runs out and we hope to get on the schedule for delivery. Yikes. We turned off the heat last night and snuggled up and bundled up for bed. We live in Arizona so it wasn’t really to chilly this morning and already is warming up quickly. But a cold shower. Yeesh that could get your body shaking in the a.m.
Enjoy!

The second lego set is done..
Kiddo did it all himself. Pretty cool. It is the police station. Even has little toilet seats in the jail cell and wanted posters.
Lots of pages of instructions.
Had to share. Enjoy! Chris
