Hugs and Kisses

CTMH's "Whoo's Your Valentine" stamp set was perfect for my Valentine's Cards this year. Three stamped images, some random stamped hearts and a few flags using Close to my Heart's new silver glitter paper, helped to create this super cute card.

In addition to the card the kids helped me make some "hugs" and "kisses" to put into the cards we are sending to the grandparents. They were fun to make, especially the kisses. What little girl doesn't love putting on bright red lipstick making kiss marks? Even I got in on the fun.

This card is perfect for this week's Heart to Heart Challenge. Make sure you stop by and see all the great love inspired artwork.

Time goes by way too fast! It seems like it was just yesterday, I was a new mom "learning the ropes," making mistakes and just trying to figure motherhood out. Now I am a mom of 2 school aged childern. How in the world did that happen!

Luckily, I have photos on top of photos to prove that these two children here once little. These photos are precious memories that I love to look back on and remember. Reminiscing always helps me to see that I am so blessed and do have "A Wonderful Life."

I have found scrapbooking to a be hobby that helps me do this. Not only can I showcase my favorite pictures on a layout, but I can also capture special memories and funny/favorite quotes, to always keep thoses memories fresh.

I hope to be able to use this blog as a way to share this hobby with others as well as to share tips I come across along the way that help making crafting fun and not too time consuming. Although, I will mostly share paper crafting, I hope to also include fun "mommy tips" for crafting with kids, birthday parties, fun and easy recipes and just about anything that makes life with kids a little bit easier. Just know there will always something "crafty" here. Crafting just makes me happy!
