First off I have to say that I have a VERY busy week planned! Monday - replacing the Air Conditioning unit. Wednesday - furniture delivery for the livingroom (now that we have a formal living room again, we need furniture to fill it)!. On Thursday, my mom and step father will be in town through Sunday. We are going to the University of Miami vs Clemson University football game on saturday plus visiting some family.
And then I just found out that my Aunt is having surgery on thursday for either Ovarian or Uterine cancer that they just found out about! I'm not sure which one, my uncle's email mentioned both. Please keep her in your prayers!
Anyway, onto my project today...
As I mentioned, yesterday was my son's 5th birthday! I can't believe my baby is FIVE!! Where does the time go?
So, since I made a birthday countdown calender for my daughter (here), he wanted one, too!
I made this one for him earlier in the month using one of "his" stamps! This is Super Ryan illustrated by Crissy Armstrong for Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber Stamps. I created the calender on the computer and added some punched stars and Papertrey Ink buttons. The DP is My Mind's Eye "boy" pack. The Black Ric Rak is from my store.
Now that his countdown is over, I will remove the elements and recycle them into a card or scrapbook page.
This project fits the ABC Challenge this week..."F - Flying"! Ok, so maybe he can't really fly...but he can pretend to, right?! LOL
Here's a few pictures from his birthday party on saturday. We had it at a bounce house place. It was great, really clean, and the kids had a ton of fun!
Ryan getting ready to slide down one of the huge slides.
Check out this huge inflatable chair!! Ryan is standing on it (yes, that is the table at his feet...that shows how huge it is). I added the signature over the girl's face because I couldn't figure out how to use the "blur" tool in Photoshop.
Blowing out the candles on his Hot Wheels cake (he picked it out just so he could have that car on top!
Only one of the few shots of Ansley at the party. I had to crop this one to get the other kids out of the shot.
Anyway, it was a very fun birthday party.
I have a bunch of new stamps on their way to my store Stamp and Create. And don't forget about the Wags 'n Whiskers Rubber Stamps pre-order.
Thanks for stopping by! Happy Stamping!
