Scrapbookaholic by Abby Challenge

Hello everyone!!!!! I would like to say that being a part of this Design team has been an HONOR!!!!!!! Abby is such a great leader and the team is so great!!!! I see so much for Abby is her future and I just wanted to say to Abby how thankful I am for having been chosen to join her talented team. I hope to continue on playing along with her challenges going forward. Thank you again ABBY!!!!!!

For this challenge, My final DT challenge, ANYTHING GOES...

I was a the expo this weekend in Saint Charles with some amazing woman ( Jessica, Zoe and Haidee (at Haidee's hubby Jim) and I had so much fun shopping, hanging out, eating, being silly, and of course getting down and  CRAFTY!!! Jessica is starting to sell this amazing paper from Tada so I took advantage and I decided to use some of her papers and a plaque that I bought at the expo with my AMAZING TWINE from the TWINERY and my SAKURA GEL pens in white and metallic green. I am thankful to both companies for providing us with their amazing products. Please click on their links to see the lines and colors available because I promise you will LOVE everything you see and get.












This twine is amazing and so vibrant...I will be posting more stuff I made with The Twinery twine and Sakura gel pens,  soon so come back for more inspiration




I love how the gel pen shines!!!




This title fit perfectly with my little Ahnais, she is such a clown almost all the time just like her daddy. It's so amazing how much of his personality she really has.  

Hope to see you join in the challenge!!! I am now able to make comments so look for my comments more from now on!!

Thank you so much for following (if you do) and I hope that I have inspired you in these challenges!

Now head on over to Scrapbookaholic Abby in case you haven't already so you can join in on the challenge and see the great sponsers and candy of this challenge!!!!!!

Until next time,

Day 2: I Love my teacher Blog Hop

Welcome to day 2 of the the I love my Teacher Blog Hop

You should be coming to me from Abby (link below). I wanted to make simple things today and I have to admit that I have wanted to make a bookmark for a long time now but I never did until now. This is my first bookmark and I wanted it to stay flat so that the teacher can actually use it. If I had more time I would have done more but I think it looks pretty decent.

Hope you like. Please let me know honestly what you think.







Also, leave comments along the way so you can be eligible for the candy on Abby's blog.

I love my teacher Blog Hop!!

Hello everyone!!!! We are hopping today in honor of our teachers. The hop starts with the Talented Abby over at ScrapbookaholicbyAbby (Don't forget about the challenge going on). I am second on the list so you are coming to me from Abby. There are so many talented ladies on this hop so please keep hopping when your done here.

For my project my kids are both getting new teachers this year and I thought this would be the time to make them something.


This is actually a notepad that I altered a bit using my BoBunny papers, Locker Talk Cricut cartridge with Ranger Glossy Accents and my Pink By Design stamps.  This is my second pad and I wanted to keep it simple so that it would be functional on a daily basis for the teacher.  I hope you like it and stop by tomorrow for another simple project. Also, leave comments so you can be eligible for the candy on Abby's blog.  NEXT... The amazing Angelica  http://handmadebyangelica.com/    This is the line up... Abby http://www.scrapbookaholicbyabby.com/
