Kiddos

I need to start taking more photos. I need to start scrapping the ones I do take. I need to follow in the footsteps of the girls on my design team scrapping their kiddos.

Everytime I hear Flo Rida singing Right Round it automatically brings me back to the days of Dead or Alive singing this. The year was 1985 and I was a senior in High School. Did I just share that? Now lets see what my 10 year old daughter thinks of the comparison. Lol.

Here is some more round goodness...

Chickie Cake Pops

These were the Cake Pops that Tatum & I made for Easter. We laughed at how alot of them turned out. It took me a little while to put my finger on it but I am thinking little yellow Yoda's...lol. I should of taken a photo of one of them. I improvised on what I could find to make them. I cut the yellow candy melts for the wings. This is where the Yoda part came in. I think the ones that were high looked like ears. I couldn't find the edible markers but we did find the funny little sugar eyes. You should check out the whole Bakerella blog. I just noticed she posted a bunch of Easter Cake Pops that readers made too.

Justlulu

I am a couple of days behind seeing the good news over at 2peas. Laura aka Justlulu was the spotlight designer on the GG blog the other day. Congratulations Laura!

Laura's cards are so unique. She has a definite style. I always look forward to see what Laura creates and how she interprets a stamp. She has a great knack for using them in unconventional ways. Remember this tree card Laura did? It is still a standout for me.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!

This was a little felted bunny that I made a few weeks ago and sent to my Sister down in Florida. I hope he is enjoying his new home. I also wish I had taken a better photo of him before he left. The grass behind him sure looks good...lol.

I am about to go figure out a display set up for the chick Cake Pops. It won't be anything elaborate since I have about 20 minutes to do it in. I'll still try to take some pics.

Late Night Bunnies

For all you late night bunnies here is the cute Easter Gift Bag project that Julie did. Julie was over at Splitcoaststampers again and found this Box in a Bag idea. It would be a great gift bag for any occassion. Take a ~~pop~~ hop on over to Julie's blog and you can see a few other gift bags that she made.

stamps used: Flower Definition, Doodle Flower Set

Well this bunny is off to finish decorating eggs, bake some lemon squares and pack up the chick Cake Pops we just finished making. I'll try to snap a photo of them tomorrow before they head out to a friend's for Easter dinner. Some of them are pretty funny looking. I guess they didn't come out bad for our first attempt at them.

Bunny Time

Could I wait any longer to post some Easter ideas? Every day this week I had plans to start posting. It just seems that there is never enough time in the day. So, before I run to finish up dinner let me get a few things up here for you all.

Have a fun Friday night!
