And there is still no baby! LOL He must be mighty comfy in Mommy's belly. :o) Time for me to get him uncomfortable and out here to meet everyone. HeeHeeHee So many people waiting to meet my little bundle of joy. Gosh, I can't wait to see him, and kiss those chubby cheeks, and smell those tiny toes. Ooooo-weeeee yittle baby come out!

Here are some fotos I've taken... They're from last week..
























I hope all you Mamas had a fabulous Mother's Day! I had a great Mother's Day. Anytime spent with family is always the best! We went to my brother's house where he BBQed and then everyone jumped in the pool. The weather has been getting so hot. It was like 93 that day! WOW! That's nuts for May. I dread this summer. Ugh. I'm already running the AC. I can't stand the heat. Anyways back to Mother's Day here's a picture of the flowers I bought for my mom and her card.






























Also my Roses from Mother's Day...















Here's a Mother's Day card I did for the Prima blog...















And just because I adore this layout so much of my niece and her funny "Punky Tails"... Used lotsa Sass! So delish! Look how bright and fun this stuff is!











And some close ups to show you how much I adore the new Sass Blossoms! And using pop dots! And sewing! And distressing the heck outta my papers! And And And... LOL

Before I go be sure to check out the Pink Paislee Blog tomorrow! It's my turn to post a project! So much fun stuff being posted by all of us DTers over there, be sure you bookmark it! ;o)

So you know what's awesome about scrapbooking and internet? The people you meet! Truly I am constantly amazed at how sweet people can be. Just recently I received this package in the mail from Elle's Studio. I wasn't expecting anything seeing as how I didn't order anything, but Elle is so incredible she sent this to me as a congrats on my little bun in the oven. Thank you so much Elle. You are so the best chica! xoxoxo














And that's not all. Oh no! The kindness continued! :o) Ashley from CocoCupcake Kits sent me this gorgeous crochet blanket. Oh my gosh, I had been dying for one of these, but didn't know anyone who made them. You totally made my day Ashely when I received this and so Thank You from the bottom of my heart! I adore it! You have been so amazing! Hugs~














Oh before I forget... I've got a page in ScrapbookTrends this month. Let me know if you find me. "Sweet Puppy Love"

Hey.

Wow look I'm blogging. It's been a hard month. Too hard to blog. Not really. But I just haven't felt "up to it". You know?
Still pregnant. Due on the 13th of May. Definitely feels sooner. :oP Having those few and far inbetween contractions already, even ones that almost make me fall. LOL Catching me by surprise. Hoping I don't fall though. HaHa Trying to stay home and just relax as much as possible. I think I've been cranky. **said as she innocently bats her eyes** But not extremely. I just don't feel up to doing much of anything. Grumpy I think. Hmmmm can't put my finger on the right word to describe... Or wait... How's this... 9 month pregnant. Ahhhh yes there it is. The right word. LOL

I am very anxious to meet my new little man. I must take fotos of his cradle. It's gorgeous! My parent bought it for him... I picked it out. HeeHee I'll try to get pictures of it and post it soon.

Anyways I'm just here for a minute of course, cause I gotta get to bed.
I just wanted to come and share my Pink Paislee DT work for this month. I absolutely adore this company! Gosh. I love everything I did with it. Here are my projects...

So everyone ready for National Scrapbooking Day? Well I have a surprise coming. Here are a few peeks. ..



















And if I don't pop by then be sure you come back on May 3rd for the reveal and a special surprise you're gonna wanna take part in!I'm out~

Happy Happy Joy Joy

Yup that's me. Cloud nine. I'll tell you why in just a few. :)
I promised to come back with scrappy goods and fotos. So lets start with a few fotos...


The other day I was sitting here at my desk when I glance up for a moment and noticed these two stacks of ribbons by two jars of candies. It was funny how they perfectly matched and so I took pictures of them. They made me smile. Hopefully they'll make you too. The colors are so spring and so pretty! Mmmmmmmm































Lookie what came to me in a the mail a few days ago.





















Guess who's been playing too. I never knew stamps could be so much fun! I plan to incorporate them into my scrapping now as much as possible! I love the look stamps give... Perfect touches. :)

So here's a page using ALL Pink Paislee that I've finished. I have other "Pink" projects in the works and just looking at this stuff makes me wanna create. I love their products. And if you love distressing, you will adore the way this paper distresses. It's freakin' awesome!

Now onto another layout. This layout is using the latest Sassafras papers. I "heart" this orange floral piece of paper very very much. It's makes me ga-ga. It's from the Pocket Full of Rosies line, it's called Piccadilly and it's the reverse side. Omgosh it makes me happy just looking at it's wonderful orange self. LOL Love the way this page came out too. :)

I was freaking out when Miss Hayley asked me. I was like for real? I pretty much had to slap myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming.
She was totally for-real!
I am sooooo excited to be part of such a fun and amazing team.
Thank you so much Hayley! You make my life fabulous. HeeHee
Am I lucky errr what?!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Oh and more about the Sass... Have you guys checked out the Sweet Spud's Kit this month. WOW! I got my Woodgrain kit yesterday and there is seriously soooo much stuff in it. I was drooling for like 10 minutes straight. HaHaHa Gina totally rocked this one. I can't wait to play with it all. :)
Sad news though...
This will be my last month at Sweet Spud's. With all my new opportunities and a baby almost here I just know I won't be able to give it my all. So to be fair to this awesome kit club I decided to step down. Gina has been so awesome about the whole thing too. Thank so much girl for all you did and allowing me to be a part of your rockin' kit club. I'm gonna miss stalking my mail man for the Spud boxes. It was fun! :)

Well how bout some good news?

Have you all heard what's going on on Saturday April 12th?
There's gonna be a party...
One that everyone can join in on cause it's right here on the web...








Make sure you don't miss out on the fun!

Well it's off to bed for me. I've got lots to do tomorrow and I'm exhausted...
Nite
