spring cleaning

hi all! thank you for all the comments in my previous entry! i will be picking my blog candy winner midnight wednesday/early thursday am.

been 'spring' cleaning a bit today. found some more crafty things that hasn't seen the light of day. perhaps i will have another blog candy giveaway end of the month to celebrate my birthday. i found 2 brand new issues of cards magazines that are both dups that i already have. don't ask me how that happened! i will give those out as well. stay tuned!
speaking of cards magazine.....my tweet heart card was one of a bunch of fantabulous cards that was selected for their blog challenge gallery. see it here.

had some time this morning to make [another] baby card. something has GOT to be in the water......this was fast & easy: punch, stamp, cut, tie and sticker. supplies: dritz, hero arts, colorbok, martha stewart, sticko, love my tapes
just a card for a sweet friend who always sends me happy mail weekly! she sent these beautiful butterfly diecuts and demensional stickers. the teeny tiny butterflies made great centers for the flowers. supplies: marcella k, hero arts, making memories, love my tapes

well, i had a busy day. i even made time to do some gardening/weeding. the boys are napping and i am ready for a snack. something i wouldn't dare eat in front of the boys like cookies, chips and ice cream! since they're asleep---i won't have to share!

thanks for stopping by!
