This is the first ever “Bind It All” project and I did a lot of cussing! My O Wire is too small so I have to order larger and redo the binding but…C’est la vie!

I wanted to make this Italian Cookie Recipe Book for my mother. There are 10 cookie recipes inside (mostly my favorites) and I know she will love it- she better since I put countless hours into this! Not too shabby for the first attempt,

 The stamp set is Voilà by SU and I drew the cookies on the tray since it seemed fitting. Hope they look yummy. I took a picture of one of the inside pages on top and the cover (closer up below) I made a lot of mistakes since this was my first time doing a home made book- but I won’t point them out

This is a Stampin Up set only available in the UK, I had to get it. This is not one of my better works (lol) but I love the Beer mugs and look forward to creating more drink themed cards with this set.

2/18/08 Heres another one since everyone just loves a froofy drink every now and then

OK so my roses are 3 days old and I’m a little late in posting. I was so surprised to get a delivery at work Thursday and a mighty BIG delivery at that! 4 dozen roses. I can’t say its the first time ever cas’ well.. I have a great hubby and he’s done this before

Here’s a photo of the bunch to share. I know, I’m spoiled.

Love my “Skin Deep ” Set by Technique Tuesday.  I wanted to use the tribal band too but had trouble with the layout- keeping it simple has never been easy for me. I cuttle bugged the white- leaving the middle bare for the sentiment which is actually from Kitchen Sink - 3 step hearts and roses set. The wings are glittery with stickles and the heart is glossy with liqued appliqué. Photos never seem to do it justice. I actually like this years Valentines Day card for the hubby. Its personalized and very rock star

Speaking of Rock Star.. Went to Foxwoods casino this weekend and stopped dead in my tracks when I saw this in the window! Had to take a picture - I love BONO!! They weren’t selling the poster in the window only the T-sheets:)

How cute is that! Pretty much says it all!

I made a card for each of my sisters using the MFT “How Sweet it is” set. I personalized each of them with letter tiles/beads and colored them all in with the MM Markers by SU.  I think they came out cute and I’m sure the girls will love em

I couldn’t waist to play with my new “3 Step Hearts & Roses” by Kitchen Sink Stamps. Such pretty results every time and the roses are the most realistic you will get from rubber stamps!
