Inspiration Wednesday!

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome back to another "Inspiration Wednesday!"

For today, the inspiration behind my card were to use a few of my older stamp & die sets that I have not used in a long time!  You can see in my video what sets I used & mixed them with some of my newer releases!  I just LOVE SO MUCH that you can mix & match my products so you don't feel like the older products are going to waste! ;) 

So I encourage all of "YOU" to wipe the dust off of your older MCT products & create something by mixing my old with the newer products! :)  This card was a LOT of fun to create!

As you can see, I HAD to add those clouds! lol.... In my video, I was unsure on what was missing, then of course as soon as I turned off my video camera, then the clouds came to mind!  I also added a few sequins to finished it off!

You can see in my video below how I put this together! :)

MCT Products Used:

~ Stitched Cartoon Cloud Dies

~ Wishing You Were Here

~ Stitched Circle Balloon Dies

~ Make A Wish

~ Hello Baby

Manly Monday!

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome back to another "Manly Monday!" 

First of all, I hope you are ALL keeping cool! WOW, I cannot believe how hot it's been in my area lately.  Today & tomorrow it's supposed to be 104 & Wed - Thurs it's supposed to be 102! It's CRAZY but I'm just making sure we all stay hydrated & I am totally living with my AC on constantly!  

Well, I had a baseball FILLED weekend!  I still can't believe we survived it! lol..... 

I have to take my hat off to the teams that played this weekend in this 100+ degree weather! 

Anthony is on 2 teams the first is the Junior Little League team & the 2nd is the Senior Little League team! LUCKILY him AND Baby Aaron are on the Senior team together!!! :)  Well, Anthony's Jr. team made it to the TOC's  & ended up losing the last game over the weekend :(  But I have to say they ALL played their little hearts out! 

Then their Sr. team had All-Star games this weekend too & they ended up WINNING!!!! YAHOOOOOOO!  They won 2 out of 3 games & they were some CLOSE & nail biting games! hahaha~!  In this picture you see here of the CHAMPS,  it was already after 8pm & it was 90 degrees! Yep, it had finally "cooled" down! lol... ;) These boys deserve a round of applause because they played GREAT! Now they play sectionals coming up! Wish us LUCK! :)

It was such a BUSY weekend for us & being out in that heat WORE US OUT!  When we got home last night after 9pm, we all just CRASHED!  At least we get to rest for 4 days then back at it again! I LOVE IT!   :) 

Now onto my AMAZING team! They have the BEST "Manly" cards for you today!   Don't forget to click on each name to visit each blog to see more! :)

"Do Over" Thursday!

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome to a "Do Over" Thursday! 

Well....my card is not quite a "do over" :(  I looked at the wrong date on our schedule & made a "Thoughtful Thursday" by accident.  I swear I think this heat is getting to me!!! We have been experiencing, (which I'm pretty sure most of you are) some REALLY high temperatures :(  Usually if the boys were in school, I would SOOO STAY in my home, but since they are off, we have been out & about~!  I'm not sure if this is even possible but I feel like I am getting HEAT headaches! lol..... I am trying to hang in there because my boys have a pretty BUSY schedule this summer! Let's just say that I WISH we can just FAST FORWARD to fall already! ;) 

Well, now onto my "non" do-over card! lol.... ;) 

I kept this card real simple by using a few of my products that I thought turned out pretty cute all together!  I had a piece of acetate on my craft table so I was able to make this into an A2 size clear card base!  I just used my More Stitched Rectangular Dies & layered my balloon using the Big Hello Die along with the sentiment from You are my Sunshine!  Then I pretty much did the same concept with the twine like you saw me do in yesterday's video!  Lastly I just added some sequins from Pretty Pink Posh! :) 

MCT Products Used:

~ Stitched Large Balloon Dies

~ Big Hello Die

Tag it Tuesday!

GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome back to another "Tag it Tuesday!" 

First up, I hope you all had a GREAT Father's Day Weekend!  :)   

Before I get to our tags, I wanted to first share with you this picture of my Baby Aaron :'(  Can you even BELIEVE my first born is about to be a Senior???  Yesterday he took his Senior pictures & as soon as I saw him in the cap & gown part....I just lost it!  I seriously TRIED to be strong, but it was rough seeing him all grown up! Where did my baby go???  The funny thing.....well, it was not that funny at the time, but as I was wiping my tears away, the photographer "told" me to join him for a picture! REALLY????....I thought she was joking! lol... The FIRST thing that came to my mind was....."OMG....what am I wearing???" hehehe! Let's just say that is a GOOD thing that I do NOT wear make-up so I did not have to worry about that!  So I found my lipgloss in my purse, put it on & took a picture with my "soon to be" graduate!  Honestly after I saw the picture in her computer, I LOVED it!  I felt blessed that I was able to be here with him for the beginning of his adventures! I LOVE BOTH of my boys to the moon & back & I cannot be any more PROUD of both of them! :) 

Okay, now onto my tag!  Since I had a BUSY weekend with Father's Day and the release, I was not able to create a NEW tag for you today :(  BUT, I thought I would share one of my FAVE tags with all of you today!  This is an "oldie but goodie" tag!  I listed the MCT stamps & dies that I used right below this pic! :)
