I won 2 Awards!!

OMG! (as my 4 yr old would say) I got two Stylish Blogger Awards and the Liebster Award within the last two weeks! Kickin! As you all  probably know by now,  I am totally winging this whole blogging thing.  I still can't figure out my 3 month old phone and here I am trying to blog! Me, who totally hates technology and cannot even figure out my sons Leapster Explorer hand held game. Why? Oh why did I purchase that thing? (don't even get me started on the Tivo!)
Anyway, I think that Sherrie at Sherriescraps.blogspot.com and Jarna at Raineydaycrafts.blogspot.com are great to have sent over the Stylish Blogger Award and Misty from deliteful-glifts.blogspot.com rocks for sending over the Liebster Award.  Since I am not the best blogger, get distracted easily by pretty things, and can't remember what I did 5 minutes ago, it may take me a bit to send these awards on to some very well deserving individuals.  However, I totally appreciate them and will do my best to forward these along.

So Saturday Challenge #4-Anything That Sparkles

My son is moving into an older 4's class tomorrow.  I wanted to thank his teacher for all her hard work and for teaching him so much this past year in the 3/4 yr class.  I made this Thank Ewe card for her and put a little sparkle farkle with my new I-Rock tool(which, by the way, totally rocks!).  I used stickles for fur.  I found this beautiful pink sparkly paper but the picture just doesn't do it justice.  I think this little lamb is precious!

Terrific Tuesday Challenge

I don't have a lot of carts(I have like 4, whoppee!) since I only just got my Cricut a few months ago.  But, my favorite has to be Create a Critter, I love it!  Those little critters are so stinkin cute! Scrappy Moms Stamps have great clear stamps!  I only have two sets of stamps and one set is from them. "Simple Sentiments"  is great and  I hope to add more from them to my collection.  The other set I have is from My Pink Stamper called "Punny-licious" so I used a sentiment from that. Check out Scrappy Moms here: http://scrappymel.blogspot.com/

Glorious Treats

If you haven't ever seen Glory of Glorious Treats, you are missing something spectacular!  She makes the most beautiful cookies and has designed the most beautiful parties!  I once told her I was jealous of her and she told me she was just like everyone else! I'm thinking, get real Sister, I can't even roll out Pillsbury cookie dough and you're making beautiful cookies that look too pretty to eat!  She is celebrating her one year anniversay and having a great giveaway so, head over there and look at her page that just makes me smile and wish her a happy anniversay! http//glorioustreats.blogspot.com/2011/02/host-party-of-year-giveaway.html

All About Spring Challenge

So, I have been a busy "chick" today and made this Spring chick card for a challenge at Cardz Tv. I have been following Mary with her tutorials and videos and she is just great. check her out at http://cardztv.blogspot.com/  . I had to use my camera phone, the lil one broke the "real" camera while in Disney so the card looks a little loopy! (seriously, the right side is cut straight, it's the pic!!")
  I am soooo not into computers and how this blogging thing works! I keep googling how to blog and then have to flip from my page to the directions! Yikes! So, bear with me while I try and work the kinks out!
