Gardeners' Digest Blog Hop

Whew! It's just one hop after another around here! I guess that's how it is in the spring--everyone is getting crafty!

I have a layout to show you!! It just hit the Garden Girl Gallery over at 2peas. It's my easter layout! I went with pastels--as usual! There's some Hero Arts stamps, Echo Park papers, Pink Paislee diecuts, and some random gems and buttons. I love doing two page layouts for holidays--we usually have so many pictures that I need to scrap anyways so I just make them small and put them on two pages. On this layout, I chose to leave the right side for just my title and journaling.

I've been really inspired lately by so many things--pinterest, blogs, new products, etc. But I'm just in love with Laura Craige's AMAZING cards. Look at this new one from her:

Love all of it--the papers, the brads, the flower, the little buttons. SOOO cute! I really need to break out my card stuff and get to work!!

And now for my new FAVORITE picks from the Two Peas Store:

Studio Calico's Wood Veneer products--so many fun new shapes!

Crate Paper's Tag Cuts

 

 

 

Chalkboard Numbers Washi Tape

October Afternoon's Sasparilla paper pad

Hero Arts and Studio Calico Clear Stamps Weekdays

Time to hop along!!

Kandis - this book is absolutely gorgeous! I need to get my hands on it :) I love all the scrumptious goodies on the front and can't wait to see the inside :)

And now I have a picture share.... here's my boys playing basket ball at Grandma and Grandpa Smith's this past weekend. They LOVE to play on the old hoop that's been in their driveway forever! Logan loves to play the most, but Landen will jump in sometimes and play around.

Happy Little Birthday...

It's my little Cooper's 1st birthday today--I can't believe it's been a year already! We are having a little family party for him tonight, complete with cake, ice cream, airplanes, loves, kisses, and everything else his little heart will desire. He's such a wonderful, happy baby, and I don't know what I would do without him! :)

Happy Birthday Coop!

I also have a little video for you.... I did the Finally Friday card over at TwoPeas. I wanted to make a card with some rolled flowers on it and My Little Shoebox has the cutest diecut rolled flowers. I hope you'll take a peek at my video. Excuse my sniffles--I didn't even know I was doing it! :)

Have a wonderful Day! :)

What a week can do...

Hey everyone! I'm soooo sorry I haven't had a chance to post my winner for Jen's class! I hurt my back really, really bad two weeks ago and I couldn't hardly move for a week. Then I found out that I have two bulging discs! I had to crawl everywhere--and my knees are all bruised up now. I'm still recovering--having a hard time bending over or picking things up. I NEVER want to do that again! It's taking me forever to catch up on everything I missed. Grrrr. I hate that.

And now for our winner.....

Congrats:

A quote

Don't you just love it when you are scanning through Pinterest--always-- and you come across the perfect quote that just fills you with happiness because you know you were supposed to read it? This one jumped out at me yesterday:

So. True.

Landen thought it would be fun to give Cooper a ride in his "airplane" which is also known as "the box". Cooper laughed and laughed as he was pushed around the furniture and down the hall. Then Landen decided he needed to jump in the box with Cooper and make me push! I really got a good workout!

Look at that crazy hair! :)

 

 Cooper is sure loving his brothers right now... as long as they are not clobbering him!

Hugs,

Kandis
