Woof You Valentine

Tonight while chatting on the phone with my little sister (got to love speaker phone) I was able to make this card. Usually I will chat with her for a few then tell her I got to go work on a card or page. Tonight I wanted to chat forever with her because our family is extremely thankful to have her with us today. Yesterday she and a friend were working on a school projects (taking pictures of different trees and weeds) when she lost her balance and feel into the pond in my parents back yard. Down she went through the ice. I guess the one time when she went to come back up she ended up under the age. Thankfully her friend who is 12 kept her cool and remained calm and was able to get my sister out. We are thankful for the friend. My sister is doing well, just still shaken up.

For my card: I used the template from SCS (at least that is where I think I got it from, I had it saved to my computer from Valentines Day last year and I'm finally getting around to using it).
The pattern paper and cardstock is from my stash. The green paper in behide the dog I printed from my computer the saying I Woof You being that I didn't have actually paper that said that or any other doggie themed paper that went well for a valentine so I created my own. The dog stamp is from AC Moore. Sorry the picture isn't the greatest.

What Color is Your Brain

This is another one that is right on.

Your Brain is Red

Of all the brain types, yours is the most impulsive. If you think it, you do it. And you can get the bug to pursue almost any passion. Your thoughts are big and bold. Your mind has no inhibitions. You tend to spend a lot of time thinking about love, your dreams, and distant places.

What Color Is Your Brain?

Tweet Thing

Sorry, but I don't have no story to go with this card. LOL! I'm sure your all relief of that.

The embossing was done with the cuttlebug with the Divine Swirl embossing folder (thank you to the cricut birthday club - I received this embossing folder). The stamp is from yup you guessed it from CC Designs Love Ya Much stamp set. I colored some of the swirls in with chalk to match the birds colors.

My Okay Spinner

Tonight I played with my new Stamps from All That Scraps . Well, this card was one of those ideas that was better looking in my head then on paper. The concept of the card and the dog of course is cute but I'm not sure if I'm feeling this card. I don't hate it but it just doesn't have that piazza to it. But I had to play with the dog stamp being that Ellie bought to Buddy (my dog's attention last night that I made a cat card first before a dog card with the new stamp sets - Thanks Ellie LOL)

The dog stamped image is part of the Love Ya Much stamp set by CC Designs. Background paper is from DCWV Everyday Paper Packet. The blue cardstock is from my stash. The stamp that came with the set that said "Your so Dog-Gone Cute wasn't working in my window and I wasn't getting it to work and I was loosing my patients with it so I typed it on the computer (yeah I cheatted). This is my first ever spinner card. It was made to look like the dog was playing in the flowers.

A Pleasant Surprise

When I come home from work the first thing I do is change my clothes (hate those damn panty hose things), then usually its dinner time after dinner I check my email. I am subscribed to Dawn's Blog (I love her blog) and she was given the You Make My Day Award and she passed it on to me and a few other bloggers. Yes ME!! I was so excited and it made me feel so good. Thank you so much Dawn!

I would like to pass this onto those that make me smile:

Dawn

Amy

Ellie

Thank you so much Dawn, you have truely made my day!

Cat Valentine Card

You know by now I can't upload a card or page without a story. LOL! So here goes this story.

On Jan. 4 All That Scraps released 2 new CC Design Stamp sets Love Ya Lots and Love Ya Much at midnight. My friend Ellie and I stayed up till midnight so that we could order our stamps. We had to order them within seconds a part from each other, and we both live in NY (different parts though). Last week Ellie received her stamps and she began to play with them, like any stamper would. I was teasing her because I didn't receive mine yet. She would say she really hasn't played with her stamps that much I would say that's because she feels guilty that her stamps came and mine didn't. My stamps arrived today. I was excited to get them but I had no attention to play with them this evening, I mean I have Prison Break to watch on TV today. Then I felt guilty just a little about all teasing I did to Ellie if she found out that I received my stamps and didn't play she would really give it to me. So this is the card I made.

The background heart paper is by Making Memories StarDust Hearts and Pastel Pink, its hard to tell in the picture but the hearts have a little glitter on them (that's the way the paper is). The pink dotted paper and pink cardstock is from my stash. The Stamp is the cat from the Love Ya Lots Stamp set. The Cat is holding a flower I had a prima with a brad over the image.

What does your name mean

I found this on Ellie's blog (that girl always has great sites to share whether it be another blog or a shopping site). Also, Thank you to Ellie I came across Alison's Blog (Where Ellie orginally got this from), great blog check it but of course not until your done reading my blog ;)

This is pretty much 100% accurate.

What Christina Means

You are very open. You communicate well, and you connect with other people easily. You are a naturally creative person. Ideas just flow from your mind. A true chameleon, you are many things at different points in your life. You are very adaptable. You are truly an original person. You have amazing ideas, and the power to carry them out. Success comes rather easily for you... especially in business and academia. Some people find you to be selfish and a bit overbearing. You're a strong person. You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something. You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense. You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong. You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know. You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do. You are a seeker. You often find yourself restless - and you have a lot of questions about life. You tend to travel often, to fairly random locations. You're most comfortable when you're far away from home. You are quite passionate and easily tempted. Your impulses sometimes get you into trouble. You are very intuitive and wise. You understand the world better than most people. You also have a very active imagination. You often get carried away with your thoughts. You are prone to a little paranoia and jealousy. You sometimes go overboard in interpreting signals. You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection. You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive. You have the classic "Type A" personality.
