Mommy Blog!

Do you have little kids and would love to make something special for them? Then continue reading cause I found some awesome blogs with great and useful ideas.
Today I'm going to introduce you to "Gubby"soon to be your best friend if your home looks like mine with lots of toys here and there,but I'm going to use the creators words to explain better.

"Gummy eats all the toys that haven't been picked up.

Apparently when I was little my mom made one of these. I don't remember it, but she said they'd sing a song. "Here comes Gunny. Yum, yum yummy!" He would eat up the toys that hadn't been picked up and he'd keep them for a while.

Gunny can be housed in your closet until you determine that he's ready to give the toys back







The instructions and more ideas are on her blog:

Joann's Birthday!

I wanted to post this picture of Joann, cause she is a wonderful person, she was the one that teach me how to use my Cricut. We have a Cricut Swarm every month and she is the one in charge of explaining the awesomeness of the Cricut.

"Moses" Sunday School Class

My mom teaches Sunday school class to the toddlers in our church, so I offer to make this for her Moses class.
I use paper dolls cartridge

Made forMemories

My mom, my daughter and I visited "Made for Memories" in Sarasota,Fl. This is a very nice scrapbooking store, it has lots of paper and you run out of money fast with all the cute stuff they have.
It was to bad I just find out about this store, because the store will be closing down in March 20th 2010.

I took a few pictures of their projects, to show you some of the classes I would have love to take.

Valentine Swap

This is the box I receive from my partner DianeWagner, for the Valentine box swap.

I alter this photo box for a Valentine Swap at the cricut.com website. This is my first project altering a box. I use Pantjin Schoolbook cart for the hearts and for the word "love" I use Home Accents. I found the paper at Joann's.

My Trip to Fort Myers,Fl

At Betty's

Firtsof all I live in Florida, Fort Myersisn't far away from where I live but my husband doesn't like driving much. But this time we went there for other reasons , so I ask him to take me to "Betty's", it's a scrapbook/stamping place that I been hearing about, but Oh surprise when I got there! I din't like it much, the paper was old and ugly, butmaybe stamper will like it since it has lots of stamps. I did find a tissue box made of chipboard to alter.

Then while everyone took a little nap I went to Joann's, what a difference from the Joann's that is closer to me. This one is huge, the paper pads where 9.99, many punches were on sale, I discover sizzlets alphabets that I actually like. And I got fabric tomake scarfs for my kids, I will post the final product.

And I know I have to lose the weight!

Playing inthe sand layout

I

I made this cartridge using Sesame street friends, the letters are really nice for kids layouts. The letter
"i" has skittles or dew drops for the point.
