mini album!

i started this cute little mini album last year sometime, with year old pictures...so that means that this has been 2 years in the making! i'm so glad to finally be finished. i guess i was a little intimidated once i glued in the base paper...but i had it on my list of things to do and now i can cross it off! this little mini album (creative cafe chipboard mini album) documents my family's first trip to my new home in kentucky - october 2007. hope you enjoy!xoxo andie...

Color Challenge no15

friday night michael went fishing and i went to the mall! fun fun fun! i hadn't been to the mall in so long. i got a sweet little stamp set from archivers with lots of cute woodland animals. the little bird stamp i used on this card for dawn's raspberry suite color challenge is from that new set. i just love it! at the very bottom on the card i punched a strip of paper with my ek success border punch...i really like how subtle it is and how it just blends in with the background because it's the same color.

SPCC #10

I thought I'd play along this week with a new challenge that I've never done before. This one is from spcolorcombos.blogspot.com I had this little pumpkin that my mom cut out for me last year or so...and when i saw the colors i had to dig for it...but surprisingly i found it and i think it was perfect for this color combo!

you can't tell from the photos, but the yellowish orange zig-zag ribbon is velour and sooo soft. i just love it! what do you think?

Raspberry Suite Color Challenge

i made this sweet little thank you card last night to play along with dawn's challenge this week. i gathered my supplies from my little craft shop upstairs last night and had to bring them downstairs to glue everything together. it is soooo hot up there! i do not understand why none of the air-conditioning reaches up there? am i missing something? the people we bought this house from said the loft was the "bedroom" for all of their kids as they were growing up...those poor kids! guess they never had to exercise...as you break a sweat just being up there for 4seconds!

what do you think?

kittens

just wanted to share some pics of our cute kittens...they are getting big. i've been postponing naming them because we really need to give away 2 of them. it costs a lot to feed 4 cats now instead of just one...i sure wish they would take some bird-catching tips from their momma!

but they sure do steal my heart! they each have their own little personalities...

happy friday.
