i love you

Happy Valentines Day! 

You're out of this world!

I love the boy stamps that Papertrey Ink has. This little rocket is too cute. I used the Sweet Sunday sketch #151 and came up with this simple encouragement card. The stamps and cardstock are PTI and the patterned paper is the Bo Bunny Blast Off collection. 

Thanks for stopping by!

typewriter birthday

I placed a Stampin' Up order a while ago. Got to play with some of my new goodies. :)

Made a birthday card with this awesome typewriter image. I love the vintagey feel. Everything on this card is Stampin' Up, I have to admit that sometimes I love it when it's all color coordinated for me and I don't have to think about what to use. :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Forward

Here it is, already the first week of February and I'm just now picking a word. Nothing was feeling right to me. Then while browsing on Pinterest I found it.

This year I want to focus on moving forward. Last year was a really hard year. Really hard. Some days I feel like life is always going to be hard. Maybe it is, I don't know. But I do know I have to choose to keep moving forward. I cannot change the things that have already happened but I can choose to accept those things, learn from them and use them to benefit my life.

Cookies

Headed to dinner at our neighbors house tonight. We're in charge of dessert. I made cookies. Pretzel Rolo Cookies. Oh yeah. Yum.

 (crappy cell phone pic- sorry)

I adapted this recipe to make them. Instead of chocolate and peanut butter chips I chopped up half a bag of Rolos. And I didn't have any pretzel salt/sea salt for the top so I sprinkled a little regular salt on them. It's not as attractive but it worked.

I'll have some craftiness to show you next week. Pinky promise. :)
