Another wedding, Another wedding gift

We just attended the beautiful wedding of my Husbands cousin Mandi, this weekend. Mandi & her new husband, Ted, were a stunning couple & we felt blessed to be able to be in attendance.
So... that meant another wedding gift. Its basicly the same idea as the previous gift I made a couple weeks ago. Since I use old yard-sale find frames this one is slightly different along with the paper line. I love how the easel sets it off so perfectly.




{details}:
{paper}: Bella Blu by SU!
{ribbon}: Offray
{monogram charm}: making memories
{stamp}: Floral/Dings by making memories
{flower}: Prima
{pearl}: Kaiser Scrapbook
{fonts}:Kunstler Script & Baskerville Old Face
{paint}: Delta, Sandstone
{frame}: yard sale find
{easel}: bought at Real Deals Home Decor
Also a big THANKS to bbcrazy who's card on splitcoast stampers {inspired} this frame. You can see the origianl card HERE.

It was wonderful to be a guest and spectator at the wedding rather than the crazy running around photographer, but that didn't stop me from bringing my camera! Here are a few shots of the evening.





















Congratulations Ted & Mandi!

EnJoy!

With a Cherry on Top..

Summer is here- yeah! So I just had to use this stamp on SOMETHING!

I thought this sentament was pretty clever, and it was perfect for an upcoming "get well" card swap!


I really wanted the cherry on top to stand out... a rhinestone was the perfect solution. However unfortunatly I didn't have a red rhinestone. Then I had an idea!

Any permanant marker would work. Make sure to give it a few layers of color, and let it dry for a few minutes.

Just think of the possibilities, an rainbow of rhinestone colors!

Better late than never...


Happy Belated Birthday to my wonderful friend NANCY! Her B-Day was really last week but I just could not find the time to get this card done before hand, sorry 'bout that Nancy! I made sure to add lots & lots of purple just for you. Hope your day was great!!

Details:

{stamp} Whisps of Joy (I believe that is the name, it was from an image swap, but I do have to say I LOVE her and I think I might have to HAVE her!!)

{markers} bic, sharpie (Ok I'm too cheap for copics...), Prisma, & Marvy Twinkellette gold glitter

{paper} Chatterbox (old old scraps from my stash)

{embellishments} acrylic heart by Heidi Swap, felt Flower by American Crafts, button, Glitter, Corner punch by EK Sucess, Ribbon by bazzel, & Cats Eye Ink by Colorbox


Part of the reason this card took me a little longer than planned is because I had help. (actually Matthew was the culprit, but Abby decided it needed some more color)See what I get for leaving my stuff out & unattended (darn I only had 2 images from the swap too! Anyone want to RAK me some more???)

So after the coloring incident I needed to keep Abby busy so I could get the card made (and not mess up my last & only image) so she made this sweet bella card. Pretty good for a 5 year old!




EnJoy!

Somewhere over the RAINBOW....

These cookies were so fun to make and just way too cute not to share. My kiddos had a blast making them!

Rainbows

INGREDIENTS:2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup white sugar

3/4 cup butter, softened

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:

1.Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg, vanilla and almond extracts. Gradually add the flour and salt. Beat at low speed until well blended.

2.Divide dough into 10 equal sections. Combine 4 sections of he dough with red paste-type coloring until smooth. Combine 3 sections of the dough with green coloring until smooth. Combine 2 sections of the dough with yellow coloring until smooth, and combine remaining dough with blue coloring. Wrap each section of dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

3.Shape blue dough into an 8-inch log. Shape yellow dough into 8x3-inch rectangle; place on waxed paper. Place blue log in center of yellow rectangle and fold yellow edges up around blue log, pinching to form seal. Roll to form smooth log. Roll green dough into 8x5-inch rectangle. Place yellow log in center, pinch edges of green to seal; roll smooth. Roll red dough into 8x7-inch rectangle. Place green log in center, pinch edges of red to seal and roll smooth.

Not too old to *ROCK*!

We were so lucky to have KUTLESS and the "Welcome to the Family Tour" (including Stellar Kart, Esterlyn, and Desciple) come to Boise! The concert was AWESOME!!! I had so much fun jumping, screaming, singing along, and rocking out!! It was an awesome high energy concert that left my 11 year old son wondering "who is this person that used to be my mom?" LOL!



One of the coolest things was Liz & I winning a drawing & getting to go back stage and MEET Kutless!! So cool!! Here we are with lead singer Jon Micah (isn't he so young???).

Here are a couple of my fav. shots of the night...






So I thought it would be appropriate to share with you another Rockabella card (had to play with her again, before she had to go back to her real home at my friend Cindy's house!!)
