HIMCR #65 Freestyle

Happy Saturday Everyone!!
I went with a friend last night to scrapbook and had so much fun!!  I worked on my kids albums for a change.  It was so nice to get pages done for them.  I'm working on my goal for this year to stay caught up on their albums.  I hope to start packing up my craft room tonight and tomorrow.  It's going to take me some time but I want to get it done so we can start painting.  I bought my paint on Monday and have an idea for a desk that I want!  I can't wait to post pictures and share my craft room when it's all done!

This week challenge at HIMCR is Freestyle!  I made a Composition Notebook for my DT Sister AJ!  I used her favorite colors and used my new Crafty Girl stamp from Fresh Brewed Designs.

I used my Creative Memories Custom Cutting System to cut out the shapes.  The pocket and folder inside the notebook was cut on my silhouette.

Happy Anniversary Card

Today is our anniversary!!  I can't believe it has been 13 years already!  As I told the kids the other night that most of those 13 years Daddy was gone alot of the time since he was out to sea alot.  It's so nice to have him home now on our anniversary and not have to worry about duty days or 
sea time anymore!   
I wanted to share with you the card I made to give to my husband tonight.  I love how it turned out and it was so simple to make :)  I used my new die from  My Creative Time!  

I wasn't sure which picture I wanted to use for the card so I printed off some extra ones.  So I decided to give this a try and make a wall hanger with the rest of the pictures to hang up by my desk.  I saw this idea on the Blog Hop for the release of the die back in August!

Halloween Basket made with Creative Memories Punches

I'm so excited to post my Halloween Basket I made yesterday!!  It was so easy to make I found the directions on how to make this basket from another Creative Memories consultant Becky Omel.  I used Border Maker System from Creative Memories with the new Rustic Fence Cartridge and Pumpkin Chain Cartridge and my favorite punch of all the CM Tag Maker.  I used an older punch that we used to sell to punch out the cat, ghost and spider.

If you have any questions let me know!
