Sami's Aunt's Puppy dog is having his first birthday, so Sami and I made this card today. The baby is baby hannah and her puppy muffin. The big girl is Sami and "her" puppy Doc. Doc is the birthday dog... I sure hope they enjoyed the party as much as I enjoyed spending some stamp time with my angel.

I used all in the family and Simple sayings II for the stamps. YoYo yellow and perfect plum for the paper, and perfect plum ink.

Ok, so there is no stamping to it but I did use stampin' up paper and ribbon. This is a smaller notebook. you can't really tell it but the white paper is embossed with a straight line of hearts across it. I would take the picture again but I mailed it to a friend. She just had a baby and I think this will slide down in a diaper bag.

I made this little notebook for myself. It was really really easy. I may trim the ribbon a little more, but other wise I am thinking it is a great project.

I cannot seem to get everything back into my desk that came out of it. Hopefully tomorrow the guys will put up my shelves so I can reorganize things. :) I am thinking of making these little notebooks to sell to raise money for autism. It takes me about 5 to 10 min apiece and one sheet of paper if I don't go into as much detail as I did here. If you know of any other really cute really fast projects please let me know.

This is my desk with the top rolled up. I put my stamp pads and refills back in the desk along with the 48 cards I am making for my friends baby announcements.
This is the drawer of scraps of paper, large stickers, and templates. I figure they will be totally scattered if Sami sees them.
This is tub one of the stuff I took out of my desk.
This sat on the CPU shelf under the desk.
The rest of this stuff all came out of the desk somehow. Not really sure how I had room to stamp in the desk, but I did it somehow.

My desk is a source of "pride" in my life. I have always wanted a nice roll top desk for as long as I could remember. I have always said think of all the stuff I could hide in one of those desks if I had one.... Well I was right about one thing I can hide a lot of stuff in one. I finally finished my scrapbook room and so I cleaned out my desk so I could move it into the room. WOW. I have a lot of stuff. And that isn't near all of it. That is only the stampin up stuff not the creative memories or random things I have bought over the years. :) It is amazing, anyway my room is done, and I am waiting on my dad to recover from minor surgery so I can move the desk from the basement to my room. I'm thinkin maybe I need to call some guys over to help him. ;) anyway. This is the current state of my stamp life. Hopefully soon it will get fixed up again. I need some serious stress relief.
