We're Off to See the Wizard the wonderful Wizard of Oz


We're Off to See the Wizard the wonderful Wizard of Oz to hopefully get the Tin Man a heart, the Lion courage, and the Scarecrow a brain! But there's the poppy fields to beware of as you could get very sleepy! The Wicked Witch but we know she's afraid of water. The flying monkeys . . . just totally freaky looking!!!! You're probably still dizzy from the spinning whirling twirling house and watching all those things passing by like a nightmare expecially that Miss Gulch on her bicycle! Poor Toto hiding in the basket, but can you blame him? Don't pay any attention to the man behind the curtain as he knows not what he speaks! And then there are the delightful munchkins that sing 3 octives highly than humanly possible. I almost forgot the good witch Glinda - how could I forget her --- she was just too sugary sweet to my standards but as a Good Witch goes, she was the best, but why didn't she just tell Dorothy she had the power to return all along and wait until the end - geesh!And then only bad witches are ugly --- come on now! Its the Merry Old Land of Oz! I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore Toto. . . .

We're paying homage to the Wizard of Oz today with our blog hop! So, grab your beverage of choice and those ruby red slippers of yours, click them twice and repeat after me - "there's no place like home, there's no place like home"!

For Blog Candy we have a 7 - piece paper assortment of 12 x 12 pieces of paper by Paper House Productions

We have a great line-up for you today and you should have arrived from Suzanne-http://cricutcraftingrammy.blogspot.com/. If not, or you just dropped in to visit today, we don't want you to miss a single story of the travels of our "characters" from start to finish and would love for you to begin at the beginning of our hop -
My search for Ruby Red Slippers sent me here :

As every good story, it has a beginning and a happily ever after - Dorothy went home and all was well with the world and Dorothy told Auntie Em - there's no place like home!!!!!! AWWWW how sweet!

Have you ever watched a butterfly just casually meandering and fluttering by - it look so peaceful, tranquil and free! They get to land where they want, smell all the flowers and just let the world pass them by. The colors of the butterfly are magnificent with seeming to be no two alike!!!!

Today, we are going to be fluttering with our butterflies and takin you on journies whether it be sniffing the flowers, watching the world pass us by or just showing off our magnificent colors!!! A nice lazy day, so, let get fluttering.....

If you stopped by to visit me today, I really appreciate it but would love for you to see all the butterflies in our hop. The butterfly journey starts with Lynne at Her Craftiness (http://slasewcraftiness.blogspot.com/). If you fluttered here by < http://scrappingrookie.blogspot.com> then you are on the right mark to sniff the flowers.

We have a wonderful sponsor today for our Butterflies Are Free - Susan Bermudez, Creative Memories representative.

I am so very happy to be able to sponsor Miss Lynne's Butterflies are Free Blog Hop. I am offering $10 worth of product from Creative Memories. You can pick what you like from my website: http://www.mycmsite.com/sites/susanbermudez. Good luck and Happy Scrappin'.

Ok I must share because  these cards are very close to my heart. Yes they a were were done 2 years ago or more.
They  contain my 2 very first  cut files I ever made from
 tracing with MTC.  I love them . The main paper on the bottom card was
covered in chalks and rub to get that tye dye look. The paper used in the middle card I think was DCWV.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out my butterflies and thank you for not catching me and letting me fly around free. I would love for you to stop and visit < www.lauraleesdream.blogspot.com> to see what kind of butterfly enchantment that has been created for you to see next.

Mardi Gras Blog Hop


Welcome to our Mardi Gras parade. I must warn you though while you may enjoy jumping up to catch beads, doubloons, cups, stuffed animals--whatever! Please yell at the float riders "Throw me something, Mister!" Bring a large, sturdy plastic or cloth bag to hold all the treasure you'll be catching - if you try to put all of your beads around your neck, you'll have a hard time standing up straight! Be prepared: some people get so overcome with excitement they will occasionally jump in front of you to grab what a rider has thrown to you. Don't get into a tug-o-war....there are many more floats on the way! If you're from far away, some visitors hold up a sign saying where they are from.. our local riders love to see people from far away have a good time and will throw to them to make sure they do!

The colors of Mardi Gras are: Purple which reprsents justice; Green which represents faith; and Gold which represents power.Mardi Gras is always held the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday. Mardi Gras is music, parades, picnics, floats, excitement ... and one big holiday in New Orleans! Everyone is wearing purple, green, and gold; and adorned with long beads caught from the beautiful floats. They sit on the ground throwing balls, playing music, having a picnic, and watching the crowds walk by between parades.

Instead of beads, coconuts (which apparently is the most prized throw from floats) and other baubles, we have a great sponsor:  

Sew, sit back with your beverage of choice, just keep in mind the police will be in full force watching for drunken lewdness as this is a family event! Feel free to watch in costume, as this is a festive hop!! If you have arrived from on the parade route, then you are sitting at the best seat in the house! If you have just happened to be visiting me today, don't get me wrong as I always love visitors, I would love for you to start at the beginning of our parade route at Lynne, your hostess, at http://slasewcraftiness.blogspot.com/ along with our marvelous co-hostess, Kimberly, at http://scrappingrookie.blogspot.com/.
Please enjoy my card , I had a BLAST colouring her!




The scroll is from  http://www.makeitcrafty.com/
And Lady Victoria is from http://www.kennykdownloads.com/

Hope enjoyed my float in the parade. To continue on the parade route, Your next stop is Kari - http://purplefuntastickcreations.blogspot.com/ . I would love for you to throw me your comments as to my tribute to Mardi Gras!

My Very own SMASH BOOK and I sure smashed it ....

Well once I got over the fact that it was my book , for me , by me , and it had no theme other than to inspire me and make me smile. ..... I think I was okay. LOL.
I ended up buying a journal at walmart because I wanted lined paper. Not much colour selection but oh well. It came for 200 lined pages and was only 3 dollars.The first 2 photos are before the rest are after I attacked it. I knew I wanted some dividers so I dug out some DCWV paper I was hoarding and could " never use" because it was just to pretty. I also used draw and cut with my Gazzy and made the calender pockets supplied by Irishmist( i think) and Thank you. There is a calendar for each month. I also used Nelda's paper clip as my portable tabs. I decorated the pages and put pockets on the back of each divider. When at this point I tried to get it all back onto the O rings and it was a very very very tight fit So I had to change the O rings up to 1 inch wide. I thought I had to break it in so in 1 pic you will see part of my prisma pencil list , by colour. And you will notice a dragon pic that as off center when cut but rather than throw it away I stuck it in here for me to slowly colour. I also made a gloss nail polish (i use instead of smooch) list by colour. I knew if I did not use it right away I would not use it because it was too nice. I put the calender pages at the back with 2 lined pages behind each .. for notes. There is an Idea section and a House section. Elastic is looped over the front cover to hold it all into place. Oh and yes the T on the cover is ment to be at an odd angle ...... It suits me I am always off kilter. Yes the cover is busy but oh well I will get over it lol.
Sorry this post was so long please enjoy!
