a real "note" book

This is another one of Michaels $1 books.  I just love these little books, so cheap and easy to re-cover!  The paper is from the paper studio and the die is from sizzix.

Sorry the "the" got covered up by the ribbon.  I didn't notice until I had already loaded the picture.  Just pretend you can see it.  It really is there.

a pretty card

I made this birthday card a few weeks ago.  I used the white ribbon flower and a blue heart pin.  There is some glimmer mist, sparkly pearls and prima leaves.  Just simple.

have you seen these?

I found these on a blog called the greenbeans crafterole.  OK, not THESE specifically, but ones just like 'em!  You should visit her blog, it is really cool!  I would like to personally thank my Mom for supplying these gift cards.  Scrappin' Sister gave me a hand full the other day and I need to get them made up!

Thanks for peekin'!

another drum roll, please!

This is the card made by my next Guest Blogger, Scrappin' Sister!  You need to know that there is a story behind this card...

Oh, for the love of crazy friends...OK, here is the story.  On Wednesday, Scrappin' Sister, Sassy Sister and Cardsister were hanging out at Hob Lob.  We walked by the aisle where all the feathers and boa's were hanging.  We noted that they had some really cute and pretty feathers.  That's when it happened.  I knew when the words came out of her mouth that this would be a challenge and Scrappin' Sister never walks away from a crafty challenge.  Well, Sassy Sister (and this is only ONE of the many reasons she got this name) said, "You know, Mom, I bet you could use those green feathers as leaves on a tree..."  Of course, the rest is history.  We now have the cutiest card ever with green feathers as leaves.   I hope that Sassy Sister never challenges her to use food on a card...unless it's chocolate!

introducing...(drum roll please)!

Sassy Sister!  She is an accomplished card maker and also happens to be the wild "card" of Scrappin' Sister!  How cool is that!  She has been picked to be the guest blogger for tomorrow.  Yes, I am posting this a little early, but so what!  I love it!

Sassy Sister has been entertaining her Mom with her card making ability and has kept us all in stitches (and not the sewing kind) for the last few days.  She's pretty talented, don't you think?  Now, all you peepers need to show this newbie some love!
