These pictures were taken at Taylor's friend Connor's year end party. Saoirse loved the slip and slide. She started off by just walking on her knees but eventually tried using her feet. She came up to me at one point and said "I slipped!" I said "Yes, you are meant to...that's why it's called a SLIP and slide." As soon as she saw William in the evening she asked for one. The other picture is of Sophie and my friend Jen's son Bennett. He usually cries when he sees her as she has been known to torture him but by the end of the party he actually crawled after her and then they sat together.
The 2 cards below were made very quickly and without a whole lot of thought, I stole the idea from Splitcoast. The thank you was for Taylor's teacher and the Happy Birthday for my friend Nancy who turned the big 4-0.
These cards were made at my Stamping Club on Tuesday. I ended up having a great party, originally I had 2 free stamp sets and $70 in hostess credits but one girl who didn't make it bumped me up to 3 free stamp sets and $90. When my stuff comes in I will have 6 new stamp sets, assorted accessories and a scrapbook kit. So excited! See what you missed Joy?
I love this tag book. Most of the tags are stamped with friend quotes. I am giving this to my friend Shelley as a thank you for being such a great friend to me and godmother to Saoirse. And because she keeps pointing out that I haven't made her anything! Oops.
Are you sick of seeing the things I make? I am thinking of making my as yet unused wordpress blog into a craft one. Better get off the computer, there is going to be a huge thunderstorm. Love them!

Love all those cards, they're really pretty!
The photos of the kiddies are cute - I want the slide too! ;-)
Popped over from 'La bellas', I love making cards, I find it a good way to relax. Keep up the good work.
Gorgeous photos of the kids!! Nice weather too....
Again, I say WOW. You are SO talented. And your girls, so cute.
you are so damn crafty! I love the first friends card you have pictured!
and love the bathing suit on that girl, you're right, we do have some good taste!!!
I love seeing all the photos of your family and the cards are great.
You are just getting craftier and craftier! Very cute cards!
Hurray for more pictures!!!! And man all your girls are so beautiful! No wonder you keep thinking about having a fifth! Why stop when you make gorgeous kids?
And as always, your cards are fantastic! I still owe you scrapbooking pages... They will come, I promise...
Why on earth aren't you selling these to boutique card shops? People here pay good $$ for handmade anything.
I love your cards Emma you do a great job even when you "aren't thinking about it"!
I do think your girls are adorable and I love Saoirse's swim suit that would be a big hit here with Madison especially since she is such a camo fan like her brothers. And Sophie? she is just a doll! Love that smile....
Your girls are so cute! The weather looks great too, keep forgetting it's your Summer.
Those cards are amazing! Really well done, I love the one with the tags in the last picture.
I could look at your creations all day lady! Don't make another blog just for crafts! I can barely keep up with this as it is!
For just 'throwing' things together you're amazing. But you knew that.
Additionally...your kidfolk are gorgeous and a half. And the idea of the friend's son screaming in horror at the sight of that angelic girl made me laugh. a lot. :)
Love your cards!!!! You're awesome at it - seriously, can't you sell them? MUCH better than the Hallmark variety.
And your kids... CUTE CUTE CUTE!
(I hate that I have a small cement slab for a backyard - err, a 'courtyard' - and Emma will likely never know the joy of a Slip n' Slide!)
I love the cards!!! they are beautiful!!
Both cards and kids are beautimous.
With extra cheese.
Bummer. Sounds like a great party that I missed. Glad you made out so well at it though. I'm so curious about these parties. Living under a rock like I do I didn't even know they existed. I never tire of looking at your crafts, you do such great work. Good idea about the craft blog too!
Yeah! Slip 'n slides. Fun fun fun.
Love the cards. Very pretty. :)
Not sick of seeing them at all, those things you make (neither kids nor cards).
My kids always start out on the Slip 'n Slide with such trepidation, too...
That pink card especially is adorable! And your little slip and slidder is the cutest ever!
Love the pics and the cards are GREAT!! awsesome job!
Emma I posted an award for you on my blog. check it out!
