East Coast Prep

Here is another project from leadership. We used a full sheet of 12 x 12 East Coast Prep DSP. Using the inside of the circle from the On Board Ginormous Pieces as a template, we traced and then cut out a circle. I'm sure you could use a plate or other largish round item for this. After cutting it out we scored and folded it in the most peculiar way. The instructions, and yes I actually read them, were really confusing to me for some reason. If I were the one giving instructions...hey! I am! So, basically, use your bone folder and fold the circle so there is approximately a 1-1/2 inch gap at the top. Then unfold it and fold in the sides so they meet at the middle. You can also use a piece of cardstock and just fold the circle around it. The stamp set we used is the one we got for free at leadership, Sweet Celebrations. It is a very versatile set and great for cards and scrapbooks alike. The belly band is just a 1-1/2 inch strip wrapped around and snailed. The dots and stripe and star are all rub-ons. They certainly gave us some hands on training with the rub-ons. They are fun to use!
Today it is actually chilly here! The sad thing is that my husband forgot the dog outside last night. Poor thing! It got down to 40 degrees last night. I am surprised she didn't bark! We have never left her outside before. He said she was just snuggled against the back door shivering. Poor baby! I think she will survive. ;o)
Have a wonderful Sunday! I"m off to get ready for Primary and Choir.

Birthday blog candy!

In honor of my birthday, I am offering another package of blog candy! All you have to do is leave a comment on this post telling me your favorite thing about getting older. :o) The candy includes a package of cardstock, metal edge tags, sanding block, cool metal border stickers, silver gel pen, and a set of mini gift cards stamped by yours truly. For some reason, my 'rechargeable batteries' decided not to 'recharge' anymore. I am quite distraught about that. I planned to share these pictures a couple of days ago, but....I had to wait til I bought some new batteries. I have to say tho, I was really afraid I had broken my camera! I'm glad it is just the batteries! I borrowed my friend's Precious stamp set the other day and have been having fun with it! I made this card using a square card base of chocolate chip (5-12" square). I stamped the swirlies in blue bayou onto a large piece of whisper white and onto a smaller piece. I cut out a butterfly and stuck i...

Bradley

Sunday, my best friend died. My sweetheart of 20 years died suddenly from diabetes. We didn't know he had diabetes. It came quick and took him from me. Brad was more than just my husband, he was my best friend. I relied so very much on his strength to guide me and my children through this life. I admit I feel a bit lost without him, already. I had planned on much, much more time with him. Brad and I met on January 28th, 1989. We were both at a nightclub for under age night with our friends that had dragged us there. We were both ready to leave when we were talked into one more dance. That dance changed our lives. We hit it off right away and danced the rest of the night. In face, we were together from then on. I remember that after that night, I waited all day for his call. It was love right away for me. I felt something I had never felt before and knew that he was the one for me. We dated for six months before Brad went to Texas to go to school. We talked a lot on the phone, and I...

Soccer, projects and....Blog Candy!!

Okay, I know I promised to post some blog candy a couple days ago but, what was I thinking? The weekend has become the crazy part of my week! We have entered the World of Soccer. All you soccer moms out there will totally know what I am talking about. We are still in the little leagues of it, only one practice a week and one game. Per child of course....I'm glad my son decided he didn't want to play. Two kids is enough! It was a beautiful weekend tho. The weather was awesome. The sun got bright during the afternoon game, but every few minutes it would rain so, it kept us nice an comfy. Only in Florida can you have rain on a sunny day. It is one of the wonders of the world. I put together a few goodies for Blog Candy today. I have been having way too much fun making stuff with coasters and patterned paper lately. Stampin' Up! has made it even easier to use these two items together by offering the Tombow Liquid Adhesive. If you haven't used it, you've got to! It is aw...
