Hope you al enjoyed the weekend. Jay did house projects, since the bank stuff looks really good-and we may get to out our house up and afford the new house we want 😀 I stamped (which I rarely do on weekends), the kids danced in the rain-after a HOT day, it was such a cool thing to sit back and watch-got me sort of teary. Then we hit an awesome deal at a yard sale!!
NOTE: If you have emailed me with a non stamp purchase, and have not heard from me-PLEASE just re-email me! I most likely forgot you in the shuffle. I do read all my emails, but often can’t respond right away. Each one is important 😀 So don’t think I ignored you. Thanks for your patience.
OK I know you didn’t come here to hear all that so here we go.
I am so excited for all the releases coming out. Really amazing stuff.
This next set is another MUST HAVE.
I am so into Owls right now (aren’t we all???) that its insane.
Im really excited to share this next owl image-with the NEW! Q.T. Hooty from Pink Cat Studio. This set will release on the 12th.
This particular image is particularly exciting for me because it was part of my input to the set!!! That is part of the fun of some DT’s. With this set all the DT contributed some great ideas that made it into one awesome owl set, thanks to Melissa’s ROCKIN skills.
I also LOVE that this set has some supah cute sentiments 😀 Always a plus.
Hooope you feel better-tea holder
I decided it make a cute little tea bag holder-going with the Hooope you feel better theme. I mean really, why send just a card??? Make it a little pkg instead. Tea always helps those yucky colds.
Inside you can fit 6 tea bags. 3 in each one of the small glassine bags. This one has Chamomile tea. I thought it was so cute.
The owl was colored, then flocked 😀 The paper & branch are from Crate Paper- The Blue Hill collection (hello love it!) The die cut was perfect.
OH MELISSA…………………Are you reading?? You need a branch set for all your lovely owls!!! (hehehe) One that can double as just a pretty branch 😀

Ah next up we have another cute owl 😀
Hoot Hoot Hooray! 28
How cute right?? I wanted this one peeking out from the tag. I loved the lay out.
I used Basic Grey-Cupcake collection for this, and the number are my Red Tag alpha. Now if you are going to ever get just ONE alphabet for your Cuttlebug (and if you don’t own a cuttlebug yet WHY NOT???!!!) THAT alpha is my most used, and most favorite!! EVER!!
This card is for my brother’s 28th Birthday. I think its a cute guy card. He loves getting my cards (or so he says). I doubt he keeps them, which is fine. My mom made him an amazing huge photo frame with a collage of ORIGINAL photos of her and him, my dad as a child-really sentimental stuff-obviously only to my mother, because my brother left it behind at one of the random places he decided to crash at. Now he can’t get it back. My poor mom’s heart is just broken. You can’t replace that stuff you know! This is before digital cameras!!! So the thought he MAY keep this card is a bit of a reach! LOL!
I still have dolls I played with as a child in MINT condition-original clothing. They were like my real babies to me as a girl. UGH! Anyway. I’m amazed how how different we are sometimes.
WOW! Was that ever random. EEKK! I better drink more coffee! LOL!

Can’t wait to make some of these! I love a card or creation that doubles as a giving item! Love the owl! I just got it…Q.T. Hooty! CUTIE Hooty! Lol…I’m slow!
super cute! Yet another set i’m going to have to own… sigh. 🙂
Now you’re enabling me to order from pink cat.
Like Renee, I want to know about the great yard sale find. We don’t come here for your designs only, but also to keep up on your precious family.
You did an awesome job on your cards Lauren! I love the bright and fun colours on the birthday card and the tea bag holder is such a great idea and looks fabulous!
The tea bag card is so cute and such a cute project!! That little owl is darling! She has so many accessories, it’s like playing paper dolls 🙂 tfs
VERY CUTE cards!
Just love the get well owl, and what a fun sentiment to go with him, he looks great on the branch! Very creative get well!
Fun card for your brother too….I am one of those without a cuttlebug, just afraid to spend out the money if I don’t end up using it much, but I get tempted everytime I see a creation from it!
Those owls are pretty cute. That teabag holder is very cool. How do you come up with all of this stuff? I can not wait to see dress up Billy. I have been trying not to order the other Billy set for a while now. This might be the end though. I’m sure something you make with him will push me right over the edge!!! Have a great day! -Molly B
Great cards! You are right…these stamps being released are AWESOME! I cannot wait!
Hi Lauren – just got your package … thank you! I too would like to know what was the great find at the yard sale (I LUV Yard Sales)? These cards are fabulous – gotta check out this set. It sounds like you got the same storm we had last night, expecting more tonight and it is HOT out there – over 100F in the shade!! Keep cool. Marta
Lauren as always you amazing me! Your ideas are such an inspiration to me as well as how you deal with your daily trials. You make me believe that you can do anything you set your mind to. As always thanks for sharing your masterpieces.
Do you have a “how to” on the card with the tea bags?
Congrats on moving.
What was the great yard sale deal?
Cute card andowl design.
What? No branches for the owls?? Ah, use cornstalks instead. 🙂 Seriously, those owl cards are great. I got my package today too. Talk about fast mail service. Now what did you find at the yard sale.
These owl cards are stinkin’ adorable – and I feel like a dork! I bookmarked your site but did not realize I actually bookmarked one post, so I have been checking back and thinking you did not post – duuuuhhhh! I am so glad I figured that out – LOL! Fabulous creations!! And, good luck with the house projects!
*STAMPIN HUGS* Alex
Great work on the Hooty cards, Lauren! That tea bag holder is really sweet… you must push me more often to do things like that instead of card after card after card! Such a neat idea, and that branch is perfect! (Yes Melissa… we need a branch!) 🙂
Love what you did with O.T Hooty…..very cute!!!!
(((Hugs)))
Lauren! Shut up! You are amazing — I LOVE the tea bag holder/card idea!!!!
