Bella Bug

Here is our little Bella Bug. Daycare had a Halloween party and so she got to wear her costume today. These are a couple of the photos our wonderful daycare mom captured for us, aren't they so cute! She made a spider during craft time and enjoyed some Halloween treats. She takes after her parents and loves chocolate,this might be her favorite holiday for now!!! It is so nice to get a little peice of her day in these photos and to know while we are away she is happy and well taken care of, what a blessing.

Unity's TWILIGHT challenge

Here is my card using the 4 novels as inspiration for Unity's TWILIGHT challenge.
Instead of just one element I chose a little something from each of the 4 novels.
The 4 {in the 4 U} represents the 4 novels in the series of books. It was fun and it came together fairly quick. What do you think?

CTMH card idea

Here is a card I made recently for my upcoming workshop. Inside the center has a spot to put a photo, a great little card to send to friends and family for the holidays. The center stamp and border stamp on the belt closure are from the stamp set called "SNOW FRIENDS" by CTMH, one of my favorites. Who doesn't love snowmen??? The paper used is by Close to my Heart.

Click on the Close to my Heart link to the right side of my blog. A new Art & Soul tutorial is there for you to watch (click on CTMH TV then Art & Soul). I hope it gets you inspired to give Close to my Heart products a try.

Simply Autumn

We took the kids out to attempt to get some nice photos of them and the changing colors. They weren't too cooperative but it was fun and they had fun running down the hills and through the leaves. They each collected some "big" leaves to take home.

CTMH-Memory Keeper

Here is the memory keeper I finished tonight. I plan to attach a large photo on right side once I decide who's memory keeper box this will be for. The front closure is magnetic so it will close tight and hold many keepsakes inside. This was a fun and easy project to do. I may make a few for holiday gifts and use it for the package with the gift inside that will be a little extra something to keep instead of throwing the paper and boxes!
Interested in making one like this? Go to my Close to my Heart website, you can find the link to the right. Click on CTMH TV for tuorials and there is also a new section recently added called Art & Soul if you go there you will be able to watch the tutorial on how to make a memory keeper of your own.

The challenge for today is to make a non standard card. My camera was not cooperating for me today so it is not the best photo, sorry. Here is my creation.

Happy Fall

Here a couple of photos of the kids. They were so excited to get their pumpkins.
We are enjoying the last bit of nice temps before the snow flys, I hope to take more pictures of the kids playing in the leaves I will post more later.
