Make A Flake

Thanks to Scrappin Cop she lead me to the neatest site and I have wasted several minutes there and possibly go into wasted hours of making my own snowflakes. The prettiest one I have made have been totally by accident and cutting off way more than I intended to. LOL! Here is one of my snowflakes.



I ended up downloading it to photoshop and playing with it to give it some texture and colors. I know it doesn't look like much of a snowflake now. But it is a really cool design and I can still play with it for whatever design I want. Really cool! I could turn this into a star or a metallic looking snowflake. Anyways, just wanted to share the fun!
Go and make yours at Make-A-Flake it is a cool stress reliever and it is free!

Also, I want to give credit to Cyndi Wetmiller from WetFish Designs for creating the beautiful paper that I used on my snowflake. Thanks Cyndi!

Some old photos



I ran across this group of photos that I took shortly after we moved to Missouri. These were taken out in my moms backyard. Neither of the "boys" knew I was shooting away. This group of pictures have become some of my favorites. Makes me smile everytime I look at them. Big A is in love with his daddy!

Iron Man and Danny Phantom Paint the Town Red!

Last night with the boys was a real treat for me. Aaron originally wanted to be a spider for Halloween and then we went to the store and he saw the Iron Man costume and he never turned back! :) They have been talking about this night for weeks. Aiden came up with his costume on his own. I really enjoyed them. This is the first year they have been really amped up and thought individually about what they wanted to be dressed up as.
I know that Aaron has the peacock look with his hair and I know that Iron Man does not have spikey hair BUT I had the hairspray in my hand already from working on Aidens that I just couldn't resist and proceeded to make Aarons hair stand up on end. :)
