Stamp Club Projects

Hi everyone! We had our Stamp Club this weekend and it was a GREAT time! If you haven't joined in you are missing out! We learned new coloring techniques and we will all be adding Dazzling Diamonds to every card we do! Here are the pictures of our projects



This card is featured in the Stampin Up Holiday Mini catalog. It uses the Home for Christmas Stamp Set which I love,love,love!


This is the triangle treat box from Beate's blog (fresh and funky) she writes amazing tutorials on SCS and the instructions for this one are on her site. I used Snow Swirled for the stamps on this one.

Here is another one using Snow Swirled. Simple but adds so much! Again I found the idea on SCS

We would love to have ya join us! Next month Emily is hosting.

Why can't I post pictures?

I try to upload them and then IE times out and then I get empty posts on my blog. Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong?It's very frustrating!

Menu Plan for this week

This is a crazy busy week so we'll be doing a few crock pot meals instead of just one this week. Usually Wed. nights are crock pot nights because of church. Last week I wasn't able to do my Eggplant Parm. Sandwiches so I'll be doing that tonight :)

Monday: Eggplant Parm Subs with Sweet Potato Fries
Tuesday: 10 minute Fettuccine from this website http://orgjunkie.com/2008/11/10-minute-fettuccine.html I'll be doing it with Shrimp
Wed: BBQ Sandwiches with Fried Asparagus (going to try a beer batter with these)
Thursday:Pot Roast with Carrots and Potatoes and Yeast Rolls
Friday: Is my birthday I'm hoping for Sticky Fingers :)

Have a great week!

Great quote!

My friend Cheryl saw this quote over at 2peas and she had to share it. It is a GREAT quote!

"Whatever you give a woman, she's going to multiply. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So - if you give her any c.rap, you will receive a ton of s.hit."

Just a little update

I've been using my blog more as a "favorite tracker" than a blog so I thought it was time I updated it.

Stampers that check here, wait until you see the November projects I have for you. The card looks so time consuming but it is sooo easy. I'll show you 3 different ways to add color to your cards. The 3D gift is adorable, and the unexpected is something your kids will enjoy. Stamp Club isn't until Nov. 22 so you'll have to wait until then to find out more (I know it's killing you isn't it!).


My menu plan for this week is a little well little. I was totally unprepared and had no clue walking through the aisles of the grocery store yesterday, but here's what i came up with

Tuesday was Tortellini with Pesto
Wed. baked ziti (it's all Jacqui's fault she had it last week :) )
Thursday Unstuffed Pork Chops-I may have to post that recipe it's sooo easy
Friday Is a crop Wendy will be doing the food ha ha ha!
Saturday Eat Out

My just in case meal this week is Red Beans and Rice and Cornbread :)

And finally I have to tell you about this weekend. We had a wonderful time camping, it was very relaxing and the I did not once hear "I'm bored". Ofcourse once we walked in the door the fighting began over the computers. We will definitly have to do it again soon. The littlest blueberry keeps asking when we are going to go camping again.
