State Champs!

We are home from a long weekend of baseball in St. Louis with some great news . Our 12 year old team won the state championship and now they move on to the next level. Next weekend we will be traveling to Kentucky for an awesome regional tournament. It's so exciting(I think)!
They played some pretty intense ball and were awesome. What more can a kid ask for- a weekend away at a hotel with all their friends, playing ball and swimming all weekend!

I did manage to find an incredible scrapbook store in town. It was called The Scrapbook Factory. I thought I died and went to heaven. I think it was even better than Archivers. I managed to spend quite a bit in there and I am sure I spent more than I would have because I was in such a good mood after they won the games. (That's a good excuse , isn't it)! Anyway on to Kentucky next weekend and maybe I can find another great store there too! Now I feel like I am on a scapbook store mission (LOL)!


This Bella stamp was a hard one to pass up. I bought it especially because my daughter is so into her music (she plays in several school bands) and she can make cards for her girlfriends.


This was my first Bella stamp I ordered and I have already made a bunch of cards with it. The paper is all from SU and it's hard to see but I pierced the edge of the patterned paper. The flowers were made from my Cricut machine.
