Los Cabos

We're back from a week in Los Cabos as Las Ventanas. It was our friend Gary's 60th birthday party celebration. Boy was it hot . . . and HUMID. Probably the hottest and stickiest it's ever been when I was there. While Las Ventanas was a beautiful resort, it was a bit snobby for me and it was amazing what they charged for food and drinks. I guess I'm just an Espie girl. My sister and BIL have a place there and it is still my favorite. Here's a few pics of our week.

is filled with Fancy Pants yumminess. These are my favorites that I made with the kit



and these are a few pages from a name badge holder mini album



Caardvarks challenge - A Card to Die For

The latest Caardvarks challenge is to use a die cut. I used a MME "adore" diecut and used pop dots to adhere it to the card. It's a little hard to tell, even in the detail, but I then coated the diecut and flowers with a little MM glitter glaze.

My Little Girl is Two

Little Hailey is turning two today. She certainly doesn't act her age - she still thinks she's a wild kitten running around the house and chasing her brother. She struck a nice fall pose for her birthday photo here.
