June Cards and Cocktails

Here are just a sample of the fun cards we made this month at Cards and Cocktails!  It was very relaxing and everyone made at least five cards, with plenty of paper and supplies to make many more,  and all while enjoying a festive beverage and great conversation:)  The paper pack we used was Lucy X7149B and the stamp sets shown are Delight C1452, Card Chatter-Birthday D1475 and A Blossom A1121.  Even I was impressed by how many cards you can make from just one Close to My Heart paper pack...I made 16 and still had half of my paper left over!  This just makes me want to tell my hubby Kyle what a great deal my favorite hobby is and why I should order more stamps.  We haven't purchased a store bought card in years!  I hope to see you at cards and cocktails next month at 6:00 on July 26th when we will be making cards with the Pemberley paper pack.

No smiles...

We had Eva's three month pictures taken yesterday and I was so bummed because she wouldn't smile at all...no way...not for anything.  She is such a smiler too.  All you have to do is smile at her and she is ready with a grinner of her own.  Of course she didn't want to when it counted:)  babies, you just can't count on them!  Hopefully they get some good shots of her looking serious.  I wanted to share a few pictures I took in our yard earlier this month.  I am going to try to do another shoot soon.  My problem I have in our house is lighting.  Does anyone have any good suggestions?

Stampaganza!!!

Don't forget that June is Stampaganza month!  That means that for every two stamp sets you buy, you can get one for free!!!  Of course I had to take advantage of this and get some fun new sets.  I didn't have very many little boy stamps...and it seems like all of my friends are having boys so I needed to stock up.  One set I got was Roar! (D1505) and I have already used it to make some simple thank yous for some little boys!  I am sure it will get a lot of use for future little boy birthday parties!!!  Head over to my website if you would like to purchase this set or take advantage of the Stampaganza.

Baby Play Date!

We watched Eva's friend Sam for a couple of hours and got a taste of what it might be like with twins...wow!  I can say for sure that Eva is enough work for me right now:)  I am loving all of the fun pictures and can't wait to scrapbook them!  More baby love to come soon...
