There's a rumble in the jungle!

I made these two cards on Saturday using stamps from Penny Black. My favorite is the hippo, I think she is too cute. I used the prisma color pencils that I had sitting on my desk for the past six months. I am not to familiar with the blending technique and attended a class given by Margarita at our local stamp store. I was so happy I attended this class because she gave us alot of tips on blending. I plan to use these color pencils more often since I now have an idea how to blend. Hopefully with time I will get it to perfection. I plan to make more cards with these awesome jungle animals I am sure they will come in handy for kids birthdays or even a birthday invitation. Last night I worked on my baby shower cards, I completed 5 cards last night, I still have 11 to go! Well I gotha go, I have to visit a few of my friends blogs. Thanks for visiting!

Finally got some scrapbooking done!

To celebrate National Scrapbooking week, I got together with a few friends on Sunday, May 4 and we did some scrapbooking. It was an all day event but I only stood for 4 hours. We got together at Bebe's house. She has such a beautiful house and she made all of us feel so welcome. I finally started on my summer vacation photos from last summer. I completed two full layouts, one from our vacation and my daughters graduation. Attached are a few photos from our scrapbooking gathering. We had lots of fun, I can't wait for us to get together again!
