Snow Fun

playing in the snow .... Aiden was helping Daddy shovel & I made a lounging snow cat on the back deck... snow wasn't packable anywhere else. Click here to see a few more pictures of Aiden.

Birthday Cake in a Box

Ioffered to test cut an svg file for Denise @ Paper Pastime (great blog, terrific tutorials and awesome files~ check her out). She made the file perfect (as usual) it cut just wonderfully for me.
I have to better piece the cake so that there is no space between "cake" layers, but for my first attempt I think I did an OK job. This file comes in perfect timing too... my BFF's b-day is tomorrow, my daughters 5th is next Fri & my sisters is the 28th. I will be a busy bee. Thanks Denise for the great file! Check out the link I included in this post (I didn't take a pic of box w/ lid.) She has it on her blog all done.

SOUS Feb 5th Sketch

WOW! I got two layouts done in one week! That is amazing for me lately. Well anywho , here is my take on this weeks sketch from Stuck on you Sketches! This is my daughter Kira's first time with Buddy Bear. He is the Pre~K bear that everyone gets to have a sleep over with & they have to read him a book (well the parents) and then write in his journal about his overnight stay. Needless to say Kira was super excited to have him for the first time! The flower on top of the layout is part of a pull out tag that I have put the journaling on. I did a little sewing on this one & made a tear bear head to represent Buddy Bear. I hope you like it!

SOUS 1/29 Sketch

Here is my take on the sketch from SOUS

Sweets for the sweet

I decided to only post svg's on Fridays, it gives me more time to work on converting the files. If you download please be kind and leave some appreciation love!!!


Here is a couple of either Truffles or some type of cup cakes, thought they might be cute on a Valentine layout/card since they are a pair... I deleted the speckles out of the svg file.
Enjoy! Click here to download.

OMG!! Had to share...

I think I am going to make this to send into school for my daughters B-day. Its cut up pound cake lightly toasted w/ red frosting for the ketchup!

Isn't this just too cute!? Don't ya think the kids will get a kick out of it??

Storage for 2x2 dies???

Does anyone have a creative/inexspensive way to store those dies? I am trying to organize my stuff but I am also trying to get my 4 year olds stuff done too. Right now I have her dies in a zip loc & would like a way to store them so she could see them all w/o having to riffle through them. (makes a big mess for me)LOL!
