Kristina's 38th Color Challenge

I love Red and Orange together! Imagine my delight when I checked out Kristina's New Color Challenge - Ruby Red and Pumpkin Pie. She had to throw a wrench in my joy by adding Pretty in Pink. I love pink as well, but I had a DIFFICULT time with this one. I didn't like the baby card as much, so I made another one. I have another two card bases made, but that pink wouldn't work with me. Oh well, that's why it's a Challenge.

Here are the cards. Enjoy!

Supplies used:
Stamps: Bundled in Love
Paper: Ruby Red, Pumpkin Pie and Whisper White
Ink: Basic Black
Misc: Scallop Punch, A Perfect Day Rub-ons, Merry and Bright Simply Scrappin'


Supplies used:
Paper: Ruby Red, Pretty in Pink and Pumpkin Pie
Misc: A Perfect Day Rub-ons, Pumpkin Pie Striped Ribbon, Flower Fusion and Fire Rhinestone Brads

I was hiding out in my closet stamping so I wouldn't disturb Ms. A, but somehow she sensed I was stamping. She wanted to make an "I Love You" card for her friends.

A New Hair Style

Last week when Ms. A was getting ready for the day I asked how many ponytails she wanted. She excitedly said 'Ten'. I tested it out yesterday and it worked alright. She's now old enough to sit still with the proper motivation. When I asked if she wanted the new hair style for church and she was properly motivated. :)





Christmas Through the Eyes of a Three Year Old

Ms. A is loving her new camera. She takes it everywhere and we she's done with the picture taking, she'll ask me to put it on our blog. Here are a few of my favorites that she took.

A Star is Born

Ms. A received this cool microphone for Christmas. It has become a very popular toy. One evening she started singing "I Am A Child of God." I was so impressed that she remembered all the words.



During my mother's visit, she and Ms. A performed a song for us. It was fun watching them.
