HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!!!!!

Happy Halloween!!!! I am so excited about Halloween this year. My cousins are coming over and we get to go trick or treating. This will be this first year I have been able to go, since they have been in Alaska. So, I am VERY excited.



Today is a going to be a quick post. I actually got so many projects done, so I promise to have new posts everyday!!!!!



My project today is another altered composition book. I needed one for my Choir class. My mom found me the perfect designer paper from Joann's.

I was tagged today by Monica, I will do that tomorrow :)

Hope everyone has a safe and fun Halloween!!!!!!

Green & Red Christmas

I love the Blue Christmas card so much, that I decided to try it in different colors!! I made one in green (Stampin Up Certainly Celery) & red (Stampin Up Real Red).

I hope you like them.

Blue Christmas

Today my mom was trying to figure out some ideas for our families Christmas cards. So I decided to sit down with her and figure out some of my own. My mom was working on a pink/white card and I thought I go with the light blue. It actually came out better than I thought. The card base is white and all the bottom corners are rounded. The blue cardstock I used white ink and embossed the snowflakes with white glitter embossing powder. The main image, I stamped the santa with blank stazon and then used watercolored crayons(which I got to use them before my mom, LOL!!) to add just a little color to him. The fuzzy parts of his robe I put stickles for some glitter and his mustache and beard is Ranger White Pearls. It actually has added texture to the beard and mustache so that is cool. The ribbon is see thru light blue with white dots from May Arts. All the stamps are from PaperTrey Ink.

I hope everyone has a great day!!!!!!

Have Your Cake and Eat it too!!!!!

We just got in the new Papertrey Ink stamp sets. I love the set "Piece of Cake", it has so many cute cakes and many different ways to use them. I wanted to try the Tri-fold card with the slice of cake. It worked perfect in the center of a scallop circle. I added some stickles to the layers of the cake and also the centers of the flowers.

I picked two new numbers from the first Blog Candy since I have not heard from the two ladies I said from yesterday.

The first new comment is number 32, and that is Brenda Waldner.

And the second winner is number 1, and that is Cheryl KVD.

Please email me your address so that I can get out your "JoAnna's Jems" to you!!!

Pokemon Frame Update

I wanted to show you the coolest thing.

I made a Pokemon Frame earlier this month out of some extra cards that I had. I received a comment from Lorie about how much her son loves Pokemon and would no way let her make a frame out of his cards. I decided to email Lorie and find out if I could mail her son the frame as a gift, and guess what, she said yes!!!! So of course I had to ask my mom if she could mail it for me and of course she did. I saw a comment from Lorie that it arrived and she would put a picture of her son with it on her blog and here it is. Isn't Kyler the cutest? I love it. I made him smile BIG!!!!! That is so cool. Thanks Lorie!!!!!


Kyler, I am so glad you like the frame!!!!!!

WINNER!!!!!!! and some news......

Hello, boy did my weekend get away from me. My Aunt, Uncle and cousins finally got here from their move from Alaska. They were at my house all day on Saturday. I had so much fun. Thank you to everyone about the words of encouragement about my grades. I think I will be ok, I just have one class that I have to talk to the teacher tomorrow, so we will see, but I am sure it will be ok. I just worry when grades come out, my mom likes them to be good and so do I.

Ok, enough about school...... I have to announce the winner.

The winner of "JoAnna's Jems" is comment number 12 and that would be resmith!!!!!!! Please email your address so that I can get out all these wonderful goodies.

And now for some news... most of you know that I gave away 3 blog candies a week ago and only received and email from one. If I do not get an email from Paula or Jailbird by the time I get out of school tomorrow afternoon, I will do the random.org for two more people.

Where have I been......

Hello all, I am so sorry I have not been on in a couple of days. Friday is the last day for my first quarter at school and I have been working very hard these past couple days to make sure my grades are where they need to be before then. I have so much to show you.

Don't forget to scroll down and post your comment to be entered in "JoAnna's Jems". It will be open for comments until Friday night and I will post the winner Saturday morning.

Thank you to everyone for making this project so much fun!!!!!!
