Dawn's #14 color challenge

Hello! I have been missing in action again! I spent the last 2 weeks in Minneapolis and Omaha with my hubby and twins. I wanted to squeeze the last life out of the summer. We did a ton of kids stuff in both towns! My twins start Kindergarten on Thursday and I am afraid I am going to have a nervous break down. I just dread giving up the care of my girls. I have been the sole care giver (besides my hubby) for 5 and a half years. I feel like I am getting laid off or something. So sad, I just can't believe how fast time flies....... WOW! I remember being pregnant and thinking when will they ever fit into these HUGE clothes (12mo.). And they are 5 now and going to school! Just can't believe it! Anyway, thought I would get my mind off it and take part in Dawn's challenge for the first time. Hope you like it!

Jack-in-the-box card

Hello, I am stamping/scrapping with my stampin friends this weekend. It is fabulous fun~! My friend, Kriss even had a princess birthday party for me last night. Princess happens to be what I call myself, to my hubby, when I don't want to certain tasks (mowing the lawn, killing spiders etc). Anyway, I am stamping lots of cards. I will have lots of new cards to post this week. I love this new hostess set from the new catalog (stinkin cute!). Hope you like what I created!
