I hope everyone's Valentine's Day was everything you hoped it would be!! We celebrated my husband's birthday with pizza, cake and bowling with the kids and great friends. He really is the other half of me and I couldn't imagine things being any different. Valentine's Day for the boys has turned into Halloween with hearts. Everyone collects candy and moves along. It's sad. My two oldest are just not into the Valentines festivities as they once were. :-( My little one is still young enough to have Valentines to hand out in his class. So stinkin cute!! I stayed up late to finish up his Valentines for class only to have him forget to hand them out when he became lost in the moment of Valentines candies and cards! Oh well.  We'll hand them to his class for his birthday.  Sure.

Now Easter is only two days away and we are sooooo not ready.  Spring break started off with a bang! Moved to a new place and my 13 yr old shattered his ankle.  Needless to say, my beloved crafting stash is still unpacked and sadly been untouched for weeks.  ;-(. On the upside my cake decorating gear is all over the place! Gotta be creative with what's available! 


Not the greatest pic but it was done in a rush before everything disappeared into boxes   :-)



The Old Woman Who Lived in a Shoe? 
That's what I was going for here.  :-) 
I realize my people sculpting skills could use some practice but I was pretty excited with the outcome overall.  

Soon, very soon, I'll be diving head first into my crafting boxes and creating, I mean, sorting and organize my gear.  

Don't forget! Only a few more days left of Sale-a-Brations!! Take a gander and get your free loot!! Also, this is the best time of year to join Stampin Up! Hobby demonstrator or ambitious go-get-'em demonstrator, there's no better time! $99 and you receive $155 in Stampin Up gear including catalogs, order forms and everything you need to get started.  It's a pretty sweet deal.  Just saying....    :-)

Anywho, I can't wait to get crafty again! Keep in touch!!

There's a change for tomorrow's workshop! So not a majorlifechangingchange but you should know.  :-)))).  Workshop is now from 2p-4p! Please RSVP and we would love to have friends out and meet new friends!

Check out this months Paper Pumpkin! Super duper cute.  I'll be honest here, I don't get every months Paper Pumpkin. I love having the flexibility to skip a month when I need to.  My family and I have some changes ahead and skipping a month is going to help.  Anyway, upward and onward, right?

I love love DSP paper packs! So many designs and so versatile! So, feeling adventurous, I used the backing board that comes with 12x12 paper packs and placed nine 3 3/4in x 3 3/4in squares on it.  Then used punches, embellishments, framelits, DSP paper pack and stamps to put together a Valentine's decorative piece for my mantle.  I'm not sure I'm done with it yet. So here's my work in progress! 



Thanks for stopping by! 
Stay classy stampers.  
Always,
Sabrina

It's coming up fast! For most of us, it means A LOT of little Valentines for the kids classroom or rooms   :-))  For us, its Valentines for one classroom (my other two are "too old" for that stuff) and most importantly my husband's birthday!  Well, its the 13th, but realistically that's what we celebrate.  This year is the big one! 40th! Eeek!! So its gotta be good! ;-)

I finally was able to participate in the Paper Craft Crews Challenge about a week ago (it's in my post, maybe two posts ago?)  And guess what?! That's right.  A top pick! So much fun!!  Thank you Paper Craft Crew!!  




Paper Craft Crew





Any whoooo   I've put together both a guys card for almost any occasion and Valentine's Day treat holder.  I used cookies.  Because I bake.  A lot.  I'm super excited about a cake project I have coming up.  A library! You'll see.  **sidetracked** 

Here we go!


     

Fry Box Bigz L Die
Perfect cookies or tossing in some candies. I would think if you're making 30+ of these, tossing in a few candy pieces would be optimum.  I make a ton of cookies at a time, so I'm thinking about it.  Maybe.  




This is the guy card.  You could throw any little special saying on that heart and fit it to your guy's special day or accomplishment.  Oh, and the compass turns. Put a brad on that bad boy and it spins.  Thanks dad! I made him one and he thought it turned.   It did not. :-))  So adjustments were made.  haha


Thanks for stopping by friends and remember, if you're local to Riverside or Corona, I will be hosting a workshop Sunday, January 31st! I asked that you please RSVP just to be sure I bring enough supplies.  Please bring an adhesive snail or any other preferred adhesive and scissors.  It is $10 per person to cover supplies
We're talking pizza (!), drinks (I will not provide alcohol, but feel free to purchase at the venue) and friends! 

Visit my friendsnstampin FB page for up to date info

Best,

Oh I do love everything single piece of this set. The DSP. The pink glitter paper.  The framelits!  It's girly. It's pretty.  It's sparkley. It's just fab!
So here we go. I set aside some time a few nights and got into a flow.  (Night owl here)  I'm so excited about my little coffee cups stash and have yet to add them to a workshop.  Hmm. Soon.  I think.  :-)  Love Blossoms

Eek!  Pink Sparkly hearts!

How incredible is that heart framelit?! 


Picture taking fail! I just couldn't manage a decent pic of my coffee cups but I really really wanted to share! I'll work on that.  :-) 
One more.  It's not pink or sparkly or girly but I love it nonetheless. It's a great way to guy up your card stash and I just love the travel aspect of the designs. I need a road trip now.  I'm itchin to get out on the road! Anyway, hope you like! 
The DSP is stunning.  I can't think of another way to describe it.  Makes me feel like every sheet is precious and I better make the most of it! So I'll be picking up another pack.  You can't beat the price for so many designs and sheets.  
That's all for today!  I'm still trying to get a workshop on the calendar. Life has become hectic these days but who doesn't love a crafting day reprieve! Soon, my friends. Soon.
Thanks for visiting!! 
Always,
Sabrina
