I'M BACK!

Yikes! It has been a whole year....Sorry for the lack of posting, but I hope to change all that! There are fun things happening at Stampin' Up with the Last chance list coming out tomorrow and the new catalog coming July 1st!!

To start off a better year of blogging, I have a fun challenge. Each time you post a comment on my posting, I will enter your name into a drawing at the end of June. I will draw 6 winners; 3 will get 20% off any stamp set and 3 will get $5.00 off their next order. You can only win once.

I hope to bring this blog back to life and share some ideas with you all.

More to come....

Congratulations cards

I couldn't resist the wise ol' owl for graduation cards this year.
I love punch animals and so do my kids!!

This one was for a Confirmation card. I made the cross using the Dahlia fold,
which is easier than you think.
The bonus with this fold is you get to enjoy both sides of the DSP!!!

Have great day,
Treena

Quick Kid Card

Here is a quick birthday card I made for a classmate of Josh's.
I got a call from his teacher Friday wondering if he could go to the party after school....
oh, what party would that be!!!
So, I need a quick gift. Luckily I work with Shanna who just so happens to keep some gift certificates for the Scenic Theater with her. Lucky me!!
Got the gift, now a quick card....
On my way home I planned this card in my head.
I ran downstairs and whipped it out in 15 minutes and then off to pick up Josh from his party.
I thought this card went well with the movie pass, popcorn and pop.
Sorry, I didn't take a pic of the inside, but it was the full image of the robot,
which says 'Happy Birthday Human'.

Hope you have great day!!

A Spongebob Birthday

Here is the invitation I made for Josh's B-day party.
I thought they turned out really cute!!
It took a looong time to make them, but was worth it.

After school, we walked down to the Pizza Ranch; 17 kindergartners in all!!
Ben and Bethany and an extra Mom helped get us there.
We ate pizza and pop and started off the festivities with a rousing
game of pin the buckteeth on Spongebob.
A few well placed circles on a piece of yellow tag board and voila
a giant spongebob!!
The kids loved it!!

Here is Josh holding his treat he brought to school that day.
I made dirt cake complete with flowers and gummy worms.
I think it will be a memorable day.

I love that Brown UPS truck!

The kids beat me home from school and called my cell phone to tell me the porch was filled with boxes!! They carried them into the living room for me and I waited until they were in bed to open them....how fun!!
One box holds a gift for my hubby....can you guess which one??

Not all are mine.....but it is sure fun to unpack these boxes.
Ladies....your Big Shots are on their way!
