Hedgehog

I have always had a thing for hedgehogs. 
 I was looking through the "Live Simply" cartridge, and noticed this guy.
 I am not sure who he is going to be for just yet. Just that I needed to make it. LOL ;)
Actually, It's going to be for my Riley.  Jason's daughter.
She's just cute enough to appreciate it.

Girlfriend Reading

I have this girlfriend that reads a lot.  She use to tease me because I would always say I can't read above a 2nd grade level.  That's why I read Dr Seuss all the time.  Actually, I read Dr. Seuss, because I run a childcare.  With everything else I don't time for reading.  Until last August, Jas and I took a trip to Cali.  I came back a couple days before him, he stayed for training.  He dropped me off before training, so I had a 2 1/2 hr wait for the plane, and 1 1/2 flight, and 2 nights before he got home.  I stopped at one of those little shops in the airport, I was going to grab a couple magazines.  This book, caught my eye, and I bought it, and I read it, and I read the next 4 in the series.  So this card is a tribute to my girlfriend who inspired me to read.  Happy Birthday Kandi Pants! Love ya girly!

Chicken Birthday Card

My sons first job is at Kentucky Fried Chicken.  I googled a cake to make for him. I will make something like it...... When I was cleaning out my stamp closet, I ran across this set.  How cute will this be to make a chicken theme birthday!  So I started with the card!  It will be so funny to see the look on his face, when he sees all the birthday decorations. Poor kid!  It's a good thing he has a great sense of humor.

Snowboarder

Another fun cake I made this last weekend. This was made for one of my son's friends. I guess she called all over looking for a snowboard cake, and couldn't find one~ they didn't have the figurines. Then she remembered that I made cakes. Luckily for me! And her~ because I feel like she got a really cool cake for her BF.
~Take care and have a great day!
