Punta Cana, Dominician Republic

Hello crafters, hubby and I are really enjoying ourselves on this vacation. I am so happy that I brought along my junk journal to play in while hubby naps or when we go to the beach. Here I have all my gear layed out in our suit on the table in the sitting area.  I had stuck some stamps in my bag and I am so happy I did. This sunshine stamp is from My style stamps. I used my polaroid camera to print out these pictures. I am upset I brought along my canon selphy printer and the Wi-Fi is so weak here that I am not able to print anything off my iPhone and I probably have 100 photos already.  

 

 

 

I wrote about my first impressions of Punta Cana on the drive in and I wasn't impressed at all thinking oh Lord what did we get ourselves into. The area is nasty looking like a third world country. Once we entered into the property I felt much better. It is so sad that something like this can be so beautiful and you know that on the outside people are living on the streets in filth. The weather is wonderful here as I was talking to my sister in law back in KS and she sated the high was 54 so happy for this high of 90 degree weather.

 

I have a picture on my phone with hubby sleeping on the plane that I will add right here on travel notes lol




I used some of the my big ideas travel project life note cards


I just love this view off our back balcony I have even taking my scrappy items out there and just sit and played.



this is from our front balcony



this is the VIP section of the resort that we are staying at



hubby enjoying that nap


now since we live in Oklahoma the nearest beach to us is in Galveston TX 8-10 hour drive so I am really loving this beach


This was me going out to dinner and man it was so good but tonight we ate at a different restaurant that wasn't good to me but I don't do Mexican food but we tried it.

for breakfast I love omelets, bacon and pancakes and that was what I am having every morning



this is Jean Claud and his sister who works on the property really sweet people.

 Oh my goodness this is what I had last night it was some meat lasagna I have my journal all done and hidden behind the pictures.

Because the Wi-Fi is so slow I have managed to complete today pages but I am sure I will not upload anymore until I get home to frustrating.

Boss Lady "Cookie"

I can't believe I managed to complete all the images for Empire.....This is a rush job as I am on my way out the door but I am putting this on schedule for tomorrow so I will be laying on the beach tomorrow when this post. Cookie's challenge was to use the word Boss or Boss lady along with star or stars and some bling

UP UP & Away

Good morning crafty friends, today hubby and I will be leaving for our vacation and I thought I would make this quick card. It is my first shaker card and I really enjoyed making it. Of course I used my explore machine 

This is a ctmh stamp for the inside

Not sure if I will be able to post anything next week if not be bless until my next posting

Birthday Boy

Today is my oldest grandson Kendrian's Birthday he turns 8. His favorite turtle is Raph and so I made him this card with the Explore machine

and here he is :)

Today is also his friends birthday and he asked I make him a card of his favorite game. I can't think of it right now but I used the explore again with the print and cut

Vacation...Junk Journal

Hubby and I are getting ready for our vacation Friday to Punta Cana Dominican Republican and I knew I had to make a little junk journal mini to take with me. I can just picture laying on the beach writing down my thoughts and gluing in my pictures...

Warning PHOTO Heavy lol

 

I used a Zutter cover that I purchased last yr or yr before at Tuesday morning. The main paper I used was Echo Park Sunshine along with some of the stickers but I will be taking the others with me to add as I go

I pulled out project life cards to add in I can't tell you which ones are which because I just have them all unloaded in my CTMH container.


I cut some of the pages with my cricut using mini album cart and on this cut I did it upside down the sun is at the bottom but I will just cover it with a picture.





I used my Cinch to put the pages together






















I added some pockets for receipts























I found this cute bag at Tuesday morning for my little junk journal to go in along with a id pouch



I am going to take this digital camera and goodies to add to my junk journal see I am all set to play and enjoy the resort at the beach

Empire Challenge #5

This has been such a busy busy week. We are trying to get ready for our Anniversary trip so no time for scraping since I am giving my job 120 so I wont be so backed up wen we get back.

This week's challenge is Lucious the Lion - it must have a record album and the word Family on the card. Well as you can see I didn't put family so when I submitted it on SOC I added a flag with family

I need to get some more markers just can't seem to get the black hair down but I am getting better with each week challenge.

 

 

I used my wink of stella pens for his shirt I just couldn't resist giving him some bling bling.

Happy Birthday Sascha

Today is my baby girl Sascha birthday. She turned 25 today so hard to believe that my kids are growing up. Oh well Sascha is just like me she loves purple and purses. So I used my explore to make this card from Artfully sent cart and the pen feature to write her name on the banner.

I used the Anna Griffin card to get the sayings on the inside of the card and used the negative purses to glue down.

This is my mini me
