I have a new Inspiration....

I am inspired, tired and excited. My oldest grandaughter Christina gave birth to my first grandson Mason Roy Vines on 2/2/11. i wonder what a numeroligist would tell us about his birth date?  Here is a glipse of my new inspiration... time to work on a new book and keepsake for him.  Love him so much. My husband Ken asked.. righty or lefty? I need to know what baseball glove to buy him.  We feel so blessed and we are so thankful to the good lord above for our blessings.

Valentines Tags..

My friends and I are swaping valentines tags for the first time. We decided that we would do a tag swap once a month.  Looking foward to what they've got in store... Here is what I've made. A lot of layering, and vintage images.. and of course ink, stamps and embellishments.  I also posted a picture of my messy table... just for the fun of it. It amazes me how little work space I need with it all piled up with STUFF.   I love my life!

Christmas Bliss

This Christmas was a very magical year for us. My oldest daughter is 8 months pregnant and baby Mason was putting on quite a show for us, our grandaughter Autumn was AMAZING when she found the pile of presents by the fireplace and all our kids have grown into amazing adults who we enjoy spending time with.  This year we had Dominique ( Anthonys new girlfriend) join us and she is quite a amazing person who added shine and laughter to our family along with Brynns girlfriend Ashley.  We are so blessed with 5 amazing kids... ( let me tell you that they haven't always be.en amazing).  I made autumn and christina matching aprons and oven mitts which they both loved, and Tony is loved by his niece very much.   Last picture autumn was all snuggley with her mommy and baby Mason.  Did I mention that we are very blessed?

Christmas Tags

A 24 hour crop with a ton of caffine and a christmas spirit moved me to make tags for our place settings and christmas tree. My friend Vanessa made 25 tags for a advent calendar.. and it inspired me. so much fun, stamping, glittering, blinging, on and on.... take a look and you can just imagine the fun I had making these.

Stampin up Clock for My son the Cowboy

I made this clock out of a box. Inside it is a scrapbook of him on the horse ranch. He absoloutly loves it... I put on the clock the bucking bronco to symbolize the cowboy he is, with words to inspire him to dream, believe, inspire and fly. I loved making the clock for him... he is a special man.
