Out for a walk!!

After all these months, Stitch finally let me put this little lizard leash on him. I took him outside for the last two days and all he does is just lay there. Come on Stitch I want to go for a walk. Then again it may take a few house for us to go around the block.



And here he is in the house, Quincie said he looks like a retarded dinosaur when he tries to run on the hardwood floor.

Sketch 120

Yippee!!! It's time for the new sketch at twisted sketches. Head over to the site after looking at my wonderful layout to check out the other girls twist on the sketch.



I used Sassfrass Lass for my sketch this week. Can I tell everyone that they are my favorite manufacturer. I was at a block for the title for this layout but like usual, Quincie can to the rescue. One look from her and the title came right out of the mouth. She does wonders when I need the help.

Sleepover and zoo days.

Here is a few more layouts from the National Zoo. This first layout is for a sketch contest at paper patch crafts on facebook.


















This one if for a contest at for the love of sketches. These pictures are from the girl scout trip to the zoo back in March.

















This one is for a contest at black with two. The challenge was to use blue and yellow with black.




















Here are some crazy pictures from Quincie's sleepover with Jenna and Jada.













Both of these layouts are for contests at for the love of sketches.

It's a lizard kind of morning

I had the camera out so I thought it was time to take new pictures of my babies. My husband found a blue-tail skink at work on Thursday. It is so cute and keeping with the "L" names we decided to call him Lester. As soon as I put Lester in the cage, he went into the hollow tree and have not see him since.





Here is Lenny. The little guy has been climbing up the glass a lot lately.













Larry Jr. He is the smaller of the two babies but he has been getting so very big. He stares at the big cage all day long wishing he could go in there.













This is the second time this month that Leroy shedded. It looks like he was a white mask on his face. Lola is out in front but Luna took off when I opened the cage, so no new picture of her.










Of course, the best for last. Stitch, he is my favorite. He still loves to give me the evil eye.

Good Bye Larry

Yesterday morning I work up and I saw my baby Larry lying on the bottom of his tank. I was so sad that we lost our first baby. I told Quincie that Larry missed Lizzy so much that he went to visit her. He was a wonderful pet, even thought you could not pet him. I would tease him all the time, call his name out and he would look at me. After a few times of doing this, Larry started to ignore me. Love you Larry.

Twisted Sketch 116

I had a lot of fun doing this week sketch at twisted sketches. The twist this week was metal. It did take me a few hours to figure out what I was going to do. I remembered all that wire I bought years ago just setting on my shelve. I decided to make flowers for my sketch.




After I made my metal flowers, I took some white cardstock and painted it with my twinklings h20s. God I love those paints. I cut out flowers from the cardstock and attached it to the metal flowers with brads. Here is a close up of my fun flowers.

A few zoo layouts

I have been working on our recent trip to the National Zoo in D.C. So let me show what I have done so far.



There is Quincie and my two cousins Nick and Krista. They are trying to find the tiger. I used Sassafras Lass for this layout.
















Cute little prairie dogs. What more can I say. I just want to and squeeze that cute little butt. I used Crate Paper that I won last month from Scrapbook Circle.
















I love flamingos, so this is one layout of a few that I will be doing. I just wanted to go in their cage and push them all over. It is so funny how they stand on just the one leg. For this layout I used Glitz Design paper, three different black thickers, and Twinkings H20 to paint the Bazzil border.
