You Rock Workshop On The Go.

As you know I have 4 Grandchildren and they all wanted to have pictures taken as soon as they found out what I was doing.

Jordan woke up one morning and he had the perfect "Rock Star" bed head hair and I just had to get the pics for the layouts.  The first 2  LO's are from the You Rock Workshop On The Go and the other 2 are from the How to Books.  

This is Jordan.

This is Zack.

This is Mary.  This LO is from the Imagine How To Book, it is called "Grand Finale"and is on page 108.

This is Hailey and this LO is a kit from my up-line and it is from the Reflections How To Book it is called Bottom Border Overlap you can find it on page 34.

We had so much fun that morning.  I hope they enjoy the memory these pages bring back when they look at them in the future.  They bring so much joy to my life.

I hope you enjoy the pages too.

Wow how time flies.

I can't believe it has been 13 days since I last posted.  I have been busy.  January 2nd was my first Scrapbook workshop, I had everything ready and no one showed.  Jan. 3rd was my Birthday.  My dear hubby took me to breakfast and Miss Hailey was worried that we were going to eat cake while we were out so I re-assured her that we were only going to eat breakfast not cake.  Zack and Miss Mary were busy cleaning the kitchen and dinning room, when we left for breakfast.  That evening My daughter Dawn made Chicken Gordon Blue from scratch for dinner and home made Cheese cake.  It was delicious!!!  My Son gave me a large box, and as soon as I opened one flap, he said "don't open it you will let it all out". It was filled with love.  My oldest grandson Jordan, took some small items from my craft room, put them in my Green M&M tin and wrapped them for me, he said "at least I knew you would like them".  My grandson Zack, bought 2 staplers, one black and one purple and wrapped the black one for me, knowing that purple is my favorite color.  Miss Mary made me a lovely beaded necklace.  Dawn and Charlie gave me a beautiful purple pearl bracelet.  My Niece and great nephew gave me a beautiful glass heart pendent with a purple flower inside it.  My Husband gave me a shelving unit for my craft room, a new skillet and a small crock pot.  My friends and their owners gave me a nice warm pair of slippers and a beautiful scarf with some tea and chocolate raspberry coffee. Yum!!! The boys even signed my card.

The boys are Silky Terriers.
This was such a cute idea, our dogs foot print would take up the whole inside of the card.














On Saturday January 9th Dawn and I took the kids to The Dalles to see my Brother and Sister-in-Law.  We spent the day and had a great time.  My Mother-in-Law's birthday was Wednesday the 13th, so Steve and I drove to The Dalles to spend some time with her.  It was good to see the family.  I haven't seen most of them in over a year because of my back.

Since Wednesday I ave been busy getting ready for todays Card workshop I hope someone shows up for this workshop.  Here are the cards I made, and they are all from the Top Stitch paper pack.

I made a smaller version of the Mini Milk carton for my Valentine project.  I will post the instructions tomorrow.


Again I am behind on Birthday cards.  Tomorrow I will post my Workshop On The Go pages and cards.

Family Photo update at last.

We went tonight and had our Family photo taken. Our last one was taken in November 1994.  We have expanded slightly.  I couldn't wait to share them.

From left to right in the back row: my Son James, my SIL Charlie and my Daughter Dawn
in the front row: my DH Steve and myself.




Here we have Grandma and Grandpa with Jordan(11)  in the back and Zack(9) over my left shoulder Mary(7) is hugging Grandpa and Hailey(4) is sitting on my lap.

From this picture you couldn't tell they see us everyday could you?  These are my little monkeys who live with us.  They bring so much joy to my life.

The other day Hailey wanted chocolate milk and it was about 1/2 hour before I needed to start dinner so I said well it is almost time for dinner so I think you should have something else right now.(otherwise she won't eat) Hailey says Pleeaassssse Grandma just a drip, I'm counting on you.  How do you say no to that?  And  where did she come up with that?  And how do you mix just a drip?

Thanks for letting me share my Family photo with you.

Need help choosing a color for your project?

I just went to SVGcuts.com to see if they posted who the winner was of the Cricut package they were giving away was and I couldn't find it.  But I did find and watch a video tutorial on a website to help you choose colors easier.  Click here to go to COLOURlovers.com this site lets you search by key words, by palette and by patterns.

Check it out, this palette is called Vintage Christmas, it doesn't tell you the color name but I know Close TO My Heart has colors very close to these.


I wish I would have known about this site before I made my Christmas cards this year.

I love my Cricut!!!

I made Zack very happy today.  I finally cut out a skull to put on his backpack for school.  He was getting ready for bed when I took this picture, and was a little embarrassed that he had no shirt on. Can you believe I actually got it all done in one day.  That never happens.
