I am so excited about CHA!!

I miss the Cropping Corner so much it is unreal to me that we closed.  I only went to CHA once and then Miss Carlee Rae showed up and traveling has been put on the back burner :)
Anyone that even has a little interest in paper crafting would love it!  Now if you are hopelessly addicted to scrapbooking and card making like I am........  My heart beat speeds up just thinking about all the new product that is coming out!
I won't be able to buy anything, all my money will go to Unity's new stamps!  OBVIOUSLY!  LOL
Check out their sale.  OH. MY. WORD!  If you spend $125. you get 3 free itty bittys a free stamp set $14 or less and a free stamp set $25. or less!  That is $58.50 of free stamps!!  Plus if you are a SMAK member or a KOM member you get 25% off and a free kit if you spend $35.00.  Some times when I check out I feel guilty for all the free product.  Don't get me wrong LOL  I love the free stuff!  I think those stamps even emboss a tiny bit crisper LOL
Here is a peek at my cart:

Sweetheart!!

Hi!  As I type this I think to myself in 4 years she will be 8 and I will be gushing over how yummy she was at 4!  For now, LOL  I am gushing over how sweet she was at just under 2 months!
My children fight sleep.  They both do every day and have for their entire lives!
On occasion one of them would let me put them down long enough to take pictures of them falling asleep.  Maybe the 47 million kisses I gave them interfered, who knows...... 
I cut out Sweetheart with a quickutz font  and ran it through my CuttleBug with my Swiss Dots folder.  Then I put Stickles on the dots.  The butterflies are from a clearance punch I got at Michael's in the jewelry department.  It's by Jolees's!  I didn't know the jewelry makers were using punches!!  I still have not bought Tim's die, I scored the flower myself and I am getting that die SOON!  The gems are from my stash they are so tiny you can't hardly pick them up!
There are only about 6 more pages in Carlee's album then it is back to Morgan's.  I think she is 8, I can't wait, she is beautiful now at 14.  At 8 she was so yummy you are not going to believe that darling little freckle face!
Thanks for stopping by today!

Have you joined Unity's Stamp of the Week club yet?

Yes?  Isn't it so exciting to get that stamp every week?
No?  WHAT are you waiting for?  :)  $5.79 a fun new stamp every week.  They ship it in a cute tiny envelope too.  My mail comes right into the house, the mail guy opens the flap and throws it in, sort of a mess but the excitement when that little stamp slides across the hardwood floor makes me do a little jump thing and a squeal and Carlee always loves to open the envelope! 
Speaking of my girl, I'd love it if you could say a little prayer for her.  She threw up 3 times today.  It makes a Mom feel so helpless doesn't it?
Here is a super cute picture of her Bryan took yesterday.
Nothing stops our girl.  If she wants to see out the window she just climbs up on the heater!
Her hair is tucked into her robe, it's halfway down her back now and as curly as mine! 
When she jumps down she has mastered the Ninja thing....  LOL
I bought her that Tinkerbell robe and now you have to give her a bath as often as you can and she loves to lounge in it LOL   
OK, back to The Stamp of the Week!
Happy Couple!
You can sign up HERE
Angela has a challenge going on over on Facebook and the prize is 20 itty bitty's!  I'm winning this one!  LOL  I'm not sure why the ribbon on this looks black.  It's really not, it is brown and from Michael's.  Both pattern papers are Union Square by MME my all time favorite!  The day Unity and MME team up I might need to be committed for being happier than any one girl should be LOL
The gems are Studio G!  Walmart has a Studio G section now and there is a ton of them for only a dollar!  SCORE!!
OK, this is it for me today!
Go enter and if you win, for the love share with me!  :)

Please join our challenge!! It's a fun one!

Head on over to our {ippity} Challenge Blog and join us!
Rona came up with a super fun one!  I laughed all the way through it LOL
Something Old - Something New
Something Borrowed - Something Blue
Here is my take on it!
Something New is another fantastic {ippity} itty bitty!  Happy Are Those!  The sale is still on!  ANG39 will get you 39% off this fantastic new stamp!
I would LOVE to be your {ippity} chick!  Please click on my picture if you want to place an order! 
Something Blue is my paper by Chatterbox.  I ran it through my CuttleBug with my Seeing Spots folder.  I think it is my new favorite! 
Something Borrowed.......  Hmmmmmmm BFF moved all her scrap loot into my scrap room.  She had TWO!  So I borrowed one.  *snicker* 
Something old, all of this ribbon and binding came from the GoodWill in super old packaging that also smelled very old LOL  So it has been airing out for about a year. 
Rona was being funny and said we should put a penny in our shoe while we made our project.  I thought I would add it in the card for the next person to get married that I know LOL   I stuck it on the sticky and covered it with a glue dot!
It doubles for dimension!  LOL  I love it!
Thanks so much for stopping by and please join us!  You could win {ippity} itty bitty's if you win!  SCORE!!!

How about we talk punches?

Do you love them?  Really dislike them?
About 14 years ago I began collecting them.  I used them on every page for YEARS!  I had over a 1000 of them.  I even had a little punchies website with my pal Ang!
Well today, I have such weak wrists I can't really even write legibly anymore LOL
However I still know how to work a punch, well I might add without trying to toot my own horn!
Except these two gems I got on clearance when I returned a bunch of stuff I didn't use for all the baby cards I posted yesterday.
EK calls this a Dimensional Punch Carnation. 
Isn't that flower pretty? 
Mine look like something the cat drug in! 
I did master the dimensional part though!  What would one use this on? 
I can READ!  I did what they said only I wrapped it around a tiny little needle thing to try to make the hole in the middle smaller.  Didn't really help right? 
OK, onto punch #2.  Martha Stewart made this one! 
It is called Embossed Petals!  What does that mean? 
That maybe the super cute flower would be embossed around the holes and above the scallops? 
Oh, you can't SEE the flowers?  That is not my poor photography skills and not even my very weak hands.  I have some serious junk in my trunk and I STOOD on the punch.
So....please tell me how YOU use these lovely little punches.  I seem to be a wee bit challenged with these two!
LOL
