Conniecancrop Monthly Challenge #9


The Challenge this month was to include a pun. Since my husband didn't get it I don't want to assume anyone else will....


so the card reads "Eyes been missing you!"

Connie Can Crops Monthly Challenge #9 (for April)

Shout Out!

A quick shout out here for any of my new friends joining me. I hope you will realize my site is under construction - ALWAYS. I don't know much about blogging but I am getting to this. Not all of you are on FB so this would be a good place to keep up with what is going on in my life-if you should care.

I also will be getting some of my pictures up here from trips I have been blessed to go on. I will post some scrapbook photos- mostly from challenges I participate in.

Oh and of all the beautiful children in my life. ;-) If you know me, you know they ARE my world.

Welcome to my Random Thoughts!

Connie's Monthly Challenge #8 Happy Birthday

For Connie's Monthly Challenge #8 Happy Birthday I used the required buttons and bling to make a birthday card. The Cupcake is stamped and then colored and Stickled.

The paper is from the All Dressed Up Stack by DCWV.

Inside I used a Happy Birthday sticker by American Crafts.

Happy Birthday Connie!

Unbelievable!

Unbelievable! Another month has come and gone. Literally! While it held enough woes it also blessed my socks off. My son-in-law shared his family for a whole month. He left my daughter and their two precious babies with me for three weeks and then he came back and spent a week with us.

Gramma had two of her grandbabies here to celebrate her birthday. As well as two of her three children.

But the biggest celebrating was my daughter, my oldest child, turning 30! Yes, I had her when I was VERY young. (JK!) How did I get to have children this old???? ;-)

For one day both she and her husband were 30 so we had a party for both of them. Bounce house included. Well, it was supposed to be for the little ones but some of those bigger kids jumped in as well.  Fun was had by all.

Next up is Easter then less than a month after that is my grandson's first birthday. I will head up north for a week for that.

Mother's Day will sneak in the day before I fly out to Denmark for the big wedding! It is coming fast! My baby will be a Mrs. in less than two months!

Happy Spring!

Happy Easter!

HE IS RISEN! HE IS RISEN INDEED!

Don't Forget!

Happy March! Happy Spring! Happy St. Patrick's Day! Happy Birthday Me! Don't forget-at least here in CA-we jump ahead one hour this coming weekend. (3/10/13) Maybe my visiting grandchildren will sleep until 7:30 then, instead of this 6:30 stuff! ;-)

Sweet Hearts Challenge



Conniecancrop Monthly Challenge #7


Last minute me...last month I missed the Challenge...this month I am down to wire. Gave up my original idea and went for this quick and simple card. Covered my chip board hearts with Stickles, stamped Happy Birthday on white card stock, used two eyelets to attach to another paper, used pop ups to attach to paper from an 8 X 8 stack and there you have it. A birthday card for a heart loving friend!
