Hi Honey, I'm Home!

You can tell we are from the Midwest by the fact that we don't care how cold or cloudy it is, we are going to the beach, by golly! The first few days in Myrtle Beach it was a bit cold for our liking. That meant it was really cold and windy at the beach. We toughed it out and had fun anyway. The kids had boogie boards and they were going to put them to good use. We drove home Friday and Saturday just in time to turn around and drive to Fort Wayne for Easter with Scott's family. Seth loved the easter egg hunt, but this year Scott's parents did not out any candy in them. The kids just hunted for empty eggs. Once in a while my in- laws do something that just makes me want to go "Hmmmmm..." But Seth had fun and each of the kids got five bucks so they were very happy.

The kids got their usual loot at home. Seth wanted the Easter Bunny to leave a photo of himself, but what he got was a little blurry. Really, the Easter Bunny is pretty busy so I am sure he could not hold still for long, and he head to take a self portrait! What did the biy expect?!

Scott's niece is getting married in about 12 days and the family is pitching in to help with the reception. I volunteered to bring buns for the hog roast. Anybody know where the outlet store is? They think 300 people will come. I am guessing some people will eat their pork without a bun? Any idea how much I should buy? I have a feeling I need to start stocking up my deep freezer in buns right now. I chose buns as they don't have to be cooked or kept cold for the road trip. It seemed easy enough at the time.

Too Much Fun

I tell you what, Granny Hanny is crackin' me up. The set is from Hanna Stamps but the saying is from River City Rubber Works. I don't know why, I guess I was just born with an odd sense of humor. I am loving the Granny Hanny set like no other.



I promise to show you something more, whenever I come home and can craft again I'll post aagin with our fresh new sets.

Cats

Do you know I am not really a cat person? It comes in part from being horribly allergic to them. I do enjoy the cats that are in the Granny Hanny set however. They are totally allergen free. I could not resist making my own saying on the computer and using the cat stamps. The cats in the set look perfectly mangy, which makes the saying even funnier in my opinion.

I am still on Spring Break, I hope you all are finding happiness wherever you are.

Granny Hanny

I love the new Granny Hanny set coming out at the Hanna Stamps release party tonight on SplitCoast. The set just cracks me up! Check out the gallery or party for more images. Or click on the hanna ladies links in my sidebar to go straight to their blogs. There are three new sets and two new Riley Moose stamps available starting tonight at 9PM. Come and join the party! It is all happenin' at SCS, come on over!

I Love My Doctor

If you are my friend in real life, you know one thing for sure, I love my doctor. He is nice and handsome and smart and kind. Goodness gracious, is he kind. He stole my heart the first time I met him. Don't worry, my husband knows how I feel, and once he got over the oddity of it, he grew to accept my weirdness.

So, it was natural that when I got my medical set from Hanna Stamps that I made a card for my doctor. See...it's me with my clothes on and my doc pointing at some girly parts, but of course the nurse is in the room to make sure no boundaries are crossed. I even have my clothes on!

The splayed legs are from the Hanna set that was released this fall. I can't remember the name, but it has Hanna jumping into a leaf pile.

My doctor will laugh out loud when he gets this card. I always make cookies everytime I go to the doctor, sometimes they have even gotten pies. The upside is that they never forget me and I always get free samples.

Check out the awesome Hanna sneak peeks that the other ladies have, just click on them in my sidebar. Don't forget to party with us on SCS Monday night starting at 9PM.

Release Weekend

If you are a follower of Hanna Stamps you have realized that we are now releasing new stamps and sets on Mondays, rather than Thursday nights. this time around there is a new set being released that has another man in the set. I wonder how many of my readers can name the other two legs in this set? The legs on the left belong to our newest release, which is a medical set.


I couldn't resist making this as a little sneak peek of what is to come. If you want to see more of this set, check out the other Hanna ladies' blogs or SCS for more images.


The paper is from a Basic Grey pack and the sentiment was made on my computer.Don't forget to come to the release party Monday night at SCS and be sure to check out the other ladies' blogs for new sneak peeks as well!

No Mojo

I don't know where my desire to create went, but it's gone. Possibly buried under the piles of laundry I have to do so we can go on Spring Break. I did manage to get Seth a birthday cake, which he helped decorate.

And I ordered some new stamps from Art Declassified. I met Karen Desmet, the owner, this weekend in Michigan and I fell in love with the possibilities of what could be done with her stamps. I thought that since they were unmounted that she would just throw them in an envelope and put them in the mail. But no! Look at her great packaging. The stamps come with a cd box bearing their image so I can store them easily and keep them organized. I do love great organization.

I could not wait to get out my laser paper and stamp in StazOn to see how the stamps would work. The laser paper gives a great slightly glossy look that make sthe stamps look more photo realistic. Now I just have to play with them and see what I want to make.

I did make some dominoes. I know, you are not surprised. I did pick up some Adirondack alcohol ink markers this weekend as well and they are great on dominoes. I just have to decide if I want to color these images or leave them in black and white.

Sorry for the slight fuzziness of the picture, it's just the way it is in my world. I am going to put a pin back on one of these immediately because I can't wait to wear them.
