Different Color Ribbon, For Different Kinds Of Cancer!

Ribbon Color Meanings

Am I the only one who did not know there is a different color ribbon for each kind of cancer? 

I know pink is for breast cancer, but I kinda thought is was a symbol for women with cancer. My

sister who was a few years younger than me died from lung cancer that spread to her bones and 

throughout her whole body. You think I would have known. My 22 yr. old son even knew .

 So I found a link that gives you the color of each ribbon, for each cancer. 

I just hope you don't even need it! I almost feel like I shouldn't tell anyone I did not know. 

I used all Papertrey Ink products ,but the embossing folder is from Stampin Up

Ok finally got around to the MIM card. I did not have a brayer so I made one out of a wooden fondant roller and some peel and stick craft foam. Im either really cheep or smart, :) take your pick. I honestly did not want to run out and get one, last night. I think I would have had a much crisper image if I had though. You cant see it to clearly in this photo, but I made the bow-tie out of the cat ears. All PTI products! Thanks again for stopping by. Take care and have a wonderful weekend.

Sympathy Card using Tag Sale #5

I cant believe I received this in the mail today as it was my second placed order from release night . Well, glad I did, because I needed to make a sympathy card for a friend . I bought this set because I loved what  

Maile Belles did with her card. I changed it up a bit. Its was quick and simple and I know I will be using this often. Everything is PTI but the dry embossing is Stampin Up . I see the red smudge I will clean it up. Thank you for stopping by and for all the congratulations on our 11 grandchild who is now home and Out of NICU.

Erin Lincoln: Pumpkin Totem cardI love this card by Erin so much I wanted to make up some card kits for my grandchildren so they could make some to .

NEW GRANDCHILD # 11

We have a new grandchild! He was in the NICU for about 5days but he went home today. ThankGod

We had some very scary days but all is well now and he will be going home to his other 5 siblings. I have to say my daughter Nichole is super mom. After being with her in her 30 some hrs. of labor I then went to my house to take over watching our other 5 grandchildren my husband had them by himself for day in a half. He is a great dad and papa. We are very blessed to have so many grandchildren even though they did come fast  The oldest is only 9

Janelle is nothing but inspirational to all of us and she is truly amazing. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Hugs and prayers.

My Yearly Halloween Scene

This is the Dept. 56 Halloween scene I put up every year. These pictures from last year, but I do almost the exact same each year.  I will start putting it up today or tommorrow. It takes me about 5 hours because I also do a Halloween tree next to it. Then the tree turns into a fall tree ,after that a Christmas tree .This is all in the dinning room .  Almost everything has moving parts that I have to carefully plan and hide all the cords. It lights up and  the middle haunted house has lighting ,thunder , screaming and creaking sounds. We have almost 11 grandchildren oldest only 9 years old. They all love it and not one of them ever touches it. I have seen them stand on a chair and just watch it. It makes me so happy to see them enjoy it.  The cloth I use over all the game boxes to make different elevations is cheese cloth that I tea died. I will admit I kinda like what I came up with , that is why I don't change it up

Truth be told my husband is the one who loves it the most and got me started with it. Yesterday I said I think I might skip putting it up. He loves it so much I have to say I do it for him, he does not ask for much . My husband loves me to decorate the house. I also do 3 Christmas trees, because it makes him happy. The last picture is what I put up for fall, when I take it down, 

Sorry know this is long . Thanks for stopping by.

Tranquility Trilogy Stamp

A few days ago I was inspired to use my Tranquility Trilogy Stamp Set  by a blog friend Janelle 
http://showandtellblog.typepad.com/show-and-tell/2011/09/triangular-trilogy.html 
Janelle likes to use the stamps she has before she will buy new ones. I think its a great idea. So with the new release coming up I thought I would do the same. The side triangles are just some printed paper I had and I used a bit of Martha Stewarts glitter.  Other wise, its all Papertrey Ink.

Hi ! Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

I know they have been used a lot so I tried to come up with something kinda new. 

To make the pot I just cute off the handle and spout off.

Used my Sees candy wrap again for the printed paper.

Make It Monday # 27 Custom Copic Striped Ribbon

Hi everyone hope your all doing well. I have been so  busy. One of my daughters lives near Sony studios  in California . They just finished filming a movie and then a few days later filmed a national Hunts commercial, in her home that her husband built.  My son in law is a great builder. So she and my three granddaughters stayed with me for a few days while they filmed. Wow she has her hands full. Ages 5,3 and 1. We had a good time. I love spending time with them, but I didn’t  get anything else done while they are here. That is ok though!

I made this card on Sunday Aug 8th and didn’t post till now. I made it from Sees candy wrap, that  was a birthday gift. I love how it looks but I did change up the ribbon so I could enter it in MIM for Papertrey Ink. I was also pleased to see that this pattern will be a new stamp on the 15th. My ribbon did not turn out great as it is the only grosgrain ribbon I have until my order comes in tomorrow. I wish I had white ribbon and a black copic marker. the one below is a ribbon I had first then colored it in with a green, didn’t turn out to

well.Take care and thanks for stoping by.well.Take care and thanks for stoping by.

Papertrey Ink Make It Monday # 26 Decreasing Apertures.
 One of my favorite parts of the MIM challenge is using clear postal tape, sticky side facing outward, then pitting glitter on it. I love the way it turned out. I did have to piece it because I used a large die. I did stamp under the glitter but you cannot see it. I could only decrease once because of the die I chose. Again I did not put a sentiment on my card yet as Im not sure how I will use this card yet.

Yosemite Camping Thank You Card

Last week I went camping in a tent, the first time since church youth group as a teen. This was my husband and my first time to Yosemite National Park. We have been to Yellowstone many times, but for some reason  this was our first visit to Yosemite. Is only about 5 hrs. away . It was beautiful we camped next to the water so when it got warm in the middle of the day we would just take a cool dip.We lit a campfire in the evening and first thing in the morning.
 As I was looking at all the campsites I noticed how everyone had a line with clothes and towels on it. I thought oh I hope my order came in the mail by the time I get home, so I could make this card.
