Get Out of Town!

It's that time of year again when school is out for the summer so we take off and have some fun! And time flies when you're having fun, right? Perhaps documenting some of your travels while you're away will help create more lasting memories? I like to carry a journal with me so I can write about some of the things we see or special moments we have and I love to bring one of those mini staplers with me so I can staple receipts and little mementos right onto the pages of my book.

At http://www.cardblanc.etsy.com/ you can find journals for your vacation or maybe you know of a couple about to embark on their honeymoon? What a great gift the above set would make! Well, enjoy the summer and happy trails!

Snips and Snails...

and puppy dog tails...that's what little boys are made of! I'm having a grand time making cards lately and wanted to share this one with you. I can't get enough of the Grand Adhesion stickers from K & Company like the clothes line sticker I used for this greeting. And another favorite product is the Cuddlebug dry embossing folders. That's what I used to make the textured polka dots on the white background card stock. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

All That Glitters

I love glitter and this Madame Royal card stock from We Are Memory Keepers has lots of glam and sparkle! It has me feeling quite creative, whipping out projects like these two greeting cards. To add a little glitz to your summer, log onto http://www.cardblanc.etsy.com/ to purchase some of this pretty card stock or one of the above cards.

Too Cute!

Most of us do not get to see one of these little guys up close and personal. This is Sonic the hedgehog and he is staying with us for a little while since his owner is out-of-town. He is an African Pygmy hedgehog and as you can see he is about palm size. He does not do a whole lot since he is nocturnal. When he is awake a night he is not much more active aside from snacking on some meal worms. Yum! He sure is cute, however! And he loves to curl up in my lap for a little nap while I read.
