    2. mix in food coloring
    3. lay paper face down on shaving cream & gently apply pressure.
    4. pick up paper
    5. wipe off shaving cream using a paper towel
    6. dry (dries quickly)

    I had a lot of fun decorating Neal's teacher's door for Teacher Appreciation Week.

    He's absolutely LOVED this year.  We've been so lucky to have a great teacher every year.

  • Grandmas Coupon Book_page 1I was asked to complete an assignment for the Bo Bunny Blog using Cut Outs.  Any Cut Outs from any line.  There are so many cut outs I like and they're all different depending upon the line they go with.  It was a hard decision.  I did know this: I wanted to make the cut outs the base for my project. That's when I came up with the idea of using them for a coupon book. I'm glad I did! The Cut Outs made this simple gift so quick, easy and inexpensive!!

    I printed the coupons on transparencies so you could see the fun Love Shack papers. Add Bo Bunny flowers, Bo Bunny Brads, Bo Bunny bling and a titch of glitter glue for fun.

    My mom is still my mom (amazing, I know!) so we give things to the Grandmother's that day also.  With Mother's Day coming up, I thought you might want to make some for the Mom's in your life.  Here are the coupons I used.

    Just print them on a transparency and add them to your book.Amber

    Enjoy!

  • 2009_04_25_0006It looked like the game would end in a 1 – 1 tie.  Which still would have been fun! 

    But … in the last few seconds of the game, the ball was passed to Neal and he kicked it in from about 8 feet out on the right corner!  Way to go buddy!

  • I saw this on my friend Natalie's facebook page and thought you might like it.  I'm sorry to all my "Twilight" purist friends who may think this is a bit sacrilegious.  You know I'm a fan, but only when it's convenient!  Just kidding.  There's actually a "Team Edward" shirt I've seen that you may catch me wearing …

    Scene 1

    BELLA: I'm sad to leave the horrible, uninhabitable wasteland of Phoenix to live in a rain-soaked town full of country people that do not understand my city ways. I wish everything about my comfortable and privileged life were completely different!
    DAD: Hi, Bella! Welcome to Forks, Washington. I'm glad you've stopped playing mother to your own flighty, irresponsible mom and come here to be my mother instead.
    BELLA: It will be my pleasure to cook and clean for you.
    DAD: I bought you an old truck!
    BELLA: I …. have no response for that.

    I NEVER get to do crazy hair!  Actually, isn’t every day crazy hair day around here??  With boys who like “faux-hawks”, spiky hair, long hair, bed-head hair … we’re ALWAYS doing something with hair.  Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE having boys who care about their hair.

    2009_04_14_0001 Today was the last day of Spirit Week.  We’ve had “Backwards” Day, “Career” Day, “Twin” Day (Neal and two of his friends were “Triplets” – they wore the same clothes) and finally today is “Crazy Hair Day”. 

    Neal has never let me do anything “different” for crazy hair day until this year.  We sprayed his hair black and tipped the ends with hot pink gel.  Next year … pig tails!

    Hmmmm, looks like I should have done this post earlier.  I told him he’d already worn that shirt this week when he insisted on wearing it.  I have PROOF!! (wink!)  At least it’s clean!Amber

  • Welcome back!  It's so much fun for me to have you visiting again!  I hope you are enjoying "hopping" with us again – I know I have fun "hopping" with Bo Bunny!

    ubugmepreview I get to design a layout for the Bo Bunny Blog using U Bug Me.  (My friend Misty designed this line) 

    I need your help!  This line has so many fun possibilities and I'm having a hard time deciding which direction to go in.  I've narrowed it down to two very different layouts. 

    I thought you might like to help.

    Before you leave my blog, leave a comment letting me know which layout you'd like to see from me!

    (I will alter the pictures to match the line)

    Thanks for helping me!  Here's the deal.  I'm so grateful to you for your help, that just for leaving me a comment with your advice, you'll be entered for both MY giveaway and Bo Bunny's!

    When you are done here, hop on over to my friend:
