Graduation Time!

May 24, 2016

It’s that time of year again! Graduation time! When the tassel really is a big hassle! Even though it’s been…ahem ahem, ohhh never mind how long it’s been! I can remember all the excitement we had leading up to the big day! The memories and friendships made, so much to look back on. Graduating from high school is a pretty big deal! You should be so very proud of everything you have done. It’s a time to look back and reflect on all of your accomplishments! Give yourself a BIG pat on the back, you did it!! Graduating is not a right and is definitely something you worked so very hard for! You have earned the honor to walk with your classmates and get that diploma! You should be so very proud!

Two of my nieces are graduating from high school on Wednesday. I am so happy and proud of both of them! Their party is this coming weekend and of course I was asked to make their invites! It’s kinda my thing and I wouldn’t have it any other way!

My go to paper for most of my cardmaking is Recollections by Michaels. Their 12×12 individual sheets are just the right weight and their 8 1/2 x 11 paper packs work great for adding the details of the party to print at home. They always have great sales on both items! The file I used is the Rounded Pocket Invite Fold Over by Jamie Lane Designs. I love all of her cards and this was the perfect invite to use to allow me to include the details of the party and individual pictures of the graduates.

To all the graduates, here is to YOU!! The rest of your life starts NOW! Make the most of it, don’t be afraid to spread your wings and fly!! You and only you control where your life takes you from this day forward!

Happy Graduation to the Class of 2016!!

A Birthday Milestone

April 6, 2016

Well, April has started. Is it crazy that we are already four months into the year? Spring has sprung, the weather is warming up (hallelujah, I do not like the cold at all!), and I will have a teenager by the end of the month. Yes, my baby girl, no longer a baby but forever my baby girl will turn 13. How is this possible? Time is a funny thing, especially as we get older. That’s one thing I have a hard time explaining to any of my girls, time. It seems to go at a snails pace at their age. For me, wasn’t I just bringing her home from the hospital? The day I gave birth to her is still fresh in my head, her first day of kindergarten is right there, just like it was yesterday. Her love of sports starting with cheer and seeing the “big” girls cheering on that first day of school and counting down the days when she was old enough to be a cheerleader. Sofia has never been afraid to do and try new things. Her love of sports, in one year playing volleyball, soccer, and basketball.

We were at the grocery store recently and she was going through the cake options. She pointed out a cake she wanted for her birthday. As soon as I saw it I got super, super excited! I don’t think she understood exactly why her mom was going nuts. Why you ask? It was the color and theme of the cake ~ Breakfast at Tiffany’s. I LOVE the color scheme and immediately my brain went to work on what I could do for invites, favors, and decorations for the party.

These invites by far are my favorite! I love the color and how great they turned out They are simple, but elegant. Not too old, just right for my beautiful daughter hitting one of the big milestone of birthdays.

A Weekend of Love

February 15, 2016

Just a quick note to say Hi and hope you all had a great Valentine’s Day and are enjoying your three day weekend!

My weekend started off by going to a workshop, Cupid’s Workshop to be exact! A bunch of crafters got together and made handmade Valentine’s to take to our Senior Citizens in the area! I pre cut a few cards out to be a little more prepared, not to mention two out of the four girls tagged along.

My favorite card, so cute and so simple! I used the Love Bug Folder card, you can get the file here!
With a little sticker bling, some pop dots I am sure this made someones day!

Mailbox Card

February 3, 2016

I came across this card this week on Pinterest! Everyone who knows me knows how excited I get over crafting and creating! When I saw this mailbox I knew I had to have the file! It’s almost like it spoke to me “Andrea, please make me, make me!!”… LOL Handmade cards are so much fun to make and to receive! This is part of a kit over at SVG Cuts, it’s the Hearts Aflame Box Cards, you can get yours here! I can’t wait to share the rest of the kit with everyone!

For the mailbox card, I used a little bit of everything. I had some paper from My Minds Eye and one of my favorite card stock is the Recollection from Michaels. It is not too thick and it is not too thin, perfect for scrapbooking and card making. One of my favorite tools for putting adhesive on the tiny parts is my Xyron Sticker Maker…If you have never used one, you need to have this in your tools. You won’t regret it! Feel free to add a note and share your thoughts! I’d lover to hear from you!!

World Card Making Day

October 3, 2015

Today is World Card Making Day! I couldn’t ask for a better way to celebrate, making the birthday invitations for a very special One Year old…my beautiful niece Isabel…she turns one this month and we will be celebrating her special day on Halloween!

I love the Recollections line from Michael’s. The paper is clean and great for card making. The base is Desert Jewel and the details for the party are on the light color from Seaside.

I had some left over washi tape (first time using that!) and added a three dimensional pumpkin from the Silhouette Online store – you can get it here!

Take a minute this weekend and send out a card to that someone special in your life. Everyday should be a card making day.
