More Heritage Pages

Here are two more pages of my Mom. I have one more page to go but ran out of time today. The colors are a little off in the photo. The red paper and the red in the circles is actually a pinkish burgundy and matches the ribbon much better IRL than it does in the photo!

My Mom tells me that the Santa was a younger Santa and liked the ladies to come sit on his lap! It's a little wierd to see her being silly.

Grace's Preschool photo - 2007















My Great Grandparents on my mother's side. My mom says he might have been a little "hen pecked"!


And Below is my monther - I have about 3 more pages worth of photos of just her from when she was young. I will post them when I get them done in the next day or so.

Split Coast Stampers Challenge SBSC122

I found this challenge on Splitcoaststampers it is challenge SBSC122. I couldn't put a title on it because the page turned out to be much busier than I planned on. There was really nothing to journal and I am not real big on journaling anyway so I left that part off too. I have no idea who made the paper (I got it at Walmart), the flowers are Prima's. I had the buttons on hand.

What Was I Thinking???

I made some Thank you cards this week. After I was done, I took a good look at them - awful! I used the Thank You Cuttlebug folder on plain white cardstock then I chalked over the image. I came to the conclusion that if someone took the time to give me or my family a nice gift then the least I could do is take the time to make a "nice" card. So, here is a sample of the first card. Pretty sloppy card making.

And here is the one I made today (actually I made 10!) It looks so much better. I found the basic design on Split coast Stampers but I can't remember who actually made it first or I would give them credit. I used SU Perfect Plum cardstock, the flower paper is DCWV Posies Glitter - Petite Purple Posie, the stripe paper is Deja Views - Plum stripe. I got both at Michael's. The ribbon is from American Craft and the word stamp is from SU - Love Blooms and the Cat stamp is a Fluffles from Stampendous

Common Figure Flaws

I found this when I was going through some boxes of old cards. Today I fit into the "Poorly Drawn Head" category.

Trip Down Memory Lane

I was cleaning out the basement yesterday and came across two boxes that I had stored cards, letters and other mementos in. I was going to throw the contents away, but then I started looking through the cards and realized what great friends I have. So, I am keeping EVERYTHING in the boxes. I also found a bunch of concert stubs. From the amount of stubs I have, it is now wonder I have some hearing loss!
Here are some of the concerts I went to:

1) Jefferson Starship - 1981 - first concert I ever went to, I was still in High School.
2) Rick Springfield - 1982
3) Journey - 1983 & 198? - saw them twice
4) Billy Squier - 1983
5) Styx - 1983
6) The Who -
7) Van Halen - 1984
8) U-2 - 1985
9) Huey Lewis & the News - 1985
10) Bob Seger & The Silver Bullet Band - 1987 - once of my favorite bands and I just don't
remember seeing them!
11) Yes!
12) Phil Collins - 1985
13) Bon Jovi - 1987
14) Huey Lewis & The News - 1987
15) Poison - 1991 - I took a guy I was dating for his birthday - I had such a crush on that guy!
16) Bruce Springstein


If you were ask me now who I want to see it would probably be Bob Seger, Bruce Springstein and Bon Jovi, the Eagles and Neil Diamond (I know, he is for the old ladies but I like him!)
There you go: a little insight into my younger days!
