While I was going through all those photos and organizing my storage binders I became obsessed with scrapbooking 2008. It was just a year of so much change, and excitement. The remodel, the pregnancy, grandpa, travels. I feel like I’m on the verge of forgetting it all. Of course 2008 was also the year of …

Easy gift – initial shirts
I can’t remember where I saw initial shirts initially (ha!), but they were love at first sight. The shirts I saw were screen printed but I wanted to try out my new fabric interfacing with my Silhouette so I chose that medium. Donna made one up by hand with Ws for William, but I used …
The first party.
If you can believe it this little lady is almost one! It certainly seems the last year has gone by in a blink. I’ll never forget having two crazy toddlers playing at 4:30 in the morning at my house! Ha! Of course I had to volunteer my services to help celebrate since I never pass …
custom
First off thank you so much for the kind words. Someone in our extended family had a medical problem, and while I wish I could say it was all fixed up it turns out medical mysteries are not solved as quickly as House would have you believe. But we are home now, and I’m happy …
Tea party!
When Tuesday and I found out Chloe was coming to visit we asked our little play group if we could skip art time and do a tea party instead. In true Amber fashion I got a bit over my head, but we still had fun. I made these cute invites on the Silhouette, trying the …
Scrap date
Sarah and I often have scrap dates at my house and they are always a treat. Our fun time last weekend was no exception. I move a little folding table into my craft room (and the upholstered chair out) and we are quite comfy with all our supplies right at hand. My first layout is …
cut it out, gift it up
Our favorite twins turned two this week and we celebrated in style. I wanted to do something fun for their presents and decided to go with matching (well coordinating) tee shirts. Carmen’s husband came up with the idea to flip flop the colors for each twin and they came out great. The cow thing isn’t …
Sweet Tee
Ok, sure that tee on the last post was super cute, but I didn’t make it (I got it here). When Sciarrino told me she needed to know how the Silhouette handled that iron on stuff I got a while back I had to answer sheepishly, “um, I don’t know.” The transfer material was in …
The scrappy result
I’m actually surprised how much scrapbooking Sarah and I got done on our little adventure. I think not having a lot of supplies to dig through makes things go quicker, at least it does for me. If only I could remember this when I’m staring at a cute new patterned paper. You saw my “warm …
Mist making
Oh I feel so smart. I figured out how to make my own mist, which is just ink after all. Obviously I’m not the first one to figure this out, since Ranger makes these great little mister things (they come empty), but still I felt quite smart. And less guilty because I have all this …
