That's How I Roll.....

Have you seen the ADORABLE new release stamps over at Hambo?!?! When I saw this Roller Bunny I literally squealed out loud! Isn't he SO so CUTE???!!!


I also love this sentiment that goes with it "How I Roll", or you can choose to say "Just a Hare Late....in wishing you a special day!" to make a belated birthday card!


Make sure to stop back tomorrow, to see my next card! Can you figure out what this little peek is?! LOL!
See you tomorrow!

Cheese Louise

Is it really August 23rd already???? Where has the summer gone?! We are leaving for Florida on Saturday for a week's vacation, then when we come back my son will be starting Kindergarten! Forget about where did the summer go, where did the last 5 years go?!?!  I am getting the tissues prepared for his first day!

On another note, I just love this little Hambo mouse, don't you?!? He's so fun to color and cut out, I had loads of fun making this little ATC.
I punched circles in different sizes from the yellow Basic Grey DP to look like swiss cheese and the little banner is cut from a Pink Paislee embellishment.

Thanks for stopping by today, your comments always make me smile!

4 Years In Heaven

I love and miss you every day Mommy!



My Mother seems so far away from me,
On that beautiful white shore across the sea.
Yet I remember love’s soft glow upon her face,
And the feel of her touch and tender embrace.
When I am weary from the burdens I’ve borne,
And the path is unclear and I feel so forlorn,
I remember her loving support was always near,
And her advice made the path ahead seem clear.
When I feel there is no one who seems to care,
Or when the heartache seems too hard to bear,
I remember how she always stood by my side,
And would tenderly wipe away the tears I cried.
When there are moments of great joy and pride,
And I wish my Mother was standing at my side,
I remember she saw more than I thought I could be,
And know I owe my triumphs to her belief in me.
When I reminisce about the things she used to say,
And I miss her and think she is so far away,
I remember what she gave lives on through me,
And one day I’ll see her on the shore across the sea.

What's on Tap Tuesday

If you've been over to Cindy's blog today for What's on Tap Tuesday, then you will know that she had a "twist" to her post today, she took her WOTT "on the road"!
Well, my post has a certain twist to it today too. First of all, I don't have a project to share (i know, boo!), but I am so excited to be leaving work later and driving with my sister to Philly for On The Road with Amuse Studio! We signed up at the last minute last night because we weren't sure we would have babysitter's. My lovely husband has so willingly agreed to take Dominick for the evening to hang out with Luke, so we can get our craft on in Philly! So that is what I have "on tap" for this Tuesday!
Yay! I can't wait. I will share projects later in the week!

My Minds Eye Blog Challenge #26

I came across a sketch challenge on the My Minds Eye blog the other day and decided to make a layout of my son riding his bike for the first time.
Here's the sketch:
 And here is my layout based on it:


As you can see, I stuck very close to the sketch and was able to complete the layout in no time at all! I combined elements from Breaking Free with paper from Abbey Road. Everything here is MME except for the buttons :)

Hope you are having a great weekend!
