Happy Friday the 13th Stampers!! Nothing creepy about this posting….it’s all about love or should I say Amore’!

Kristina Werner is now having every Thursday a Basic Inspiration Scrapbooking Class.  I simply love Kristina’s style of cardmaking and scrapbooking.  She’s such an inspiration to me!  So if you haven’t seen her video tutorials come over and visit her at KWernerDesign.

So for this class, I followed her layout.  I used some Basic Grey paper as well, but lost the main page of the title…..lol!  So I used her basic techniques she used in her video but added some changes to it.

Those 2 love birds are my parents. We went to this Mexican Restuarant called Casa Sanchez and they had awesome food and entertainment. Being together for so many years and still in love!

{Amore’} Supplies:

Cream CS, Basic grey paper, American Crafts Stamps and buttons, Cloud 9 Stamp sentiment. Circle punch and heart punch.

Have a great Friday!

Hello Crafty Friends!

Sad news today, my dear little buddy Rudy passed away today.  I know dwarf hamsters have a short life span 1 to 2 years.  But, I didn’t really expect my little Rudykins to pass so suddenly.

Last night around 11:30p before I went to bed, I saw him and he was his normal self.  He was running around and playing in his little exercise wheel. But then this morning around 9am, I found him laying outside his little tikki house. I called his name and he didn’t move. I knew instantly something was wrong. He couldn’t walk, the only movement he made was wiggle around.  I held him and wrapped him in his little blanket.  Through out the time I knew he wasn’t going to make it.  I cried and told him it was ok to go God and with all the little angels.  After 20 minutes, he was gone.

I’ll always remember the special moments of my little Rudykins.  Usually before I go to bed I take him out to pet him and give him little good night kisses and give him a small treat.  He was the sweetest little thing ever. He loved playing, and climbing up my arm and hang out on my shoulder.  Even my 2 dogs and cat got used to him while I put him in his purple ball and he be rolling around in the living room.

Yeah, I’m going to miss the little fellow so much. Never did he once bite me. He was such a sweet, sweet little hamster.  I made a special scrapbook page layout in dedication to him.  Rest In Peace my little friend, I’m sure going to miss you so much!

Hey Friends! Happy Thursday to ya!

It’s finally June now! Yeyyyy! Woo-hoo! Which means summer is just around the corner! No more gloomy days & rain here in sunny California! Hot weather and breezy air is all we get in my area! So excited for this season!!

So, for today’s post I got several challenges I submitted my scrapbook page layout! Since most of all stamping & scrapbooking blogs is all about SUMMER I decided to submit my layout.  Since June is all about summer, we are also having a special challenge over at The Treehouse Blog.  Today’s theme is “Beachy Vacations”.  This scrapbook layout is all about my Carnival Cruise vacation in the sea to Mexico.

For this scrapbook layout I used a lot of Treehouse Digital Stamps that you can find here! I used Photoshop Elements to color & transfer my images to my page layout.  So, come on over to The Treehouse Blog and join us in this Thursday Challenge and link your creation.  Love to see what you create!
