I got together with a dear friend the other day and we created all day long....now that's what I call a super fun day! One of the cards that I created was a CASE from the fabulous  Dawn Olchefske Her creativity is wonderful ~ I love popping in on her and I know that you'll enjoy your time there as well ~ so what are you waiting for...go have a peek! I needed an anniversary card for some dear friends of ours and Dawn's card was just screaming at me... pick me, pick me...oh how I enjoyed creating this card! Here is a picture of my CASE of the card that was inspired by Dawn ~ thanks Dawn!!! Please ignore my crooked border along the bottom....oh how did I do that and I was using my Stamp-a-mig????  I thought I was lined up properly ~ obviously NOT!!! I loved this so much ~ I'm actually going to teach this to my girls...I know they'll go crazy with delight as they put their card together!

No Card...just a bit of Bragging!

I'm looking very forward to my club class tonight ~ with my card classes scaled way back in order to help care for the needs of my wonderful in laws, I needed to rethink my schedule and do some major revamping! so I haven't had a class in a month and can't wait to spend time with my friends this evening :-) But in the mean time, I'd love to share this with you ~ our son Marc was a guest on 100 Huntely Street and I'd love for you to have a listen and be blessed. Marc is a wonderful young man with a real heart for others and the Lord ~  we are so proud of him and the rest of our family ~ we are so blessed!

I need a birthday card for my brother in law.   He has such a beautiful tenor voice and moves me to tears as he sings.  I knew that I wanted to use musical notes on his birthday card and this sketch by Mary Fish was perfect.

Color Throwdown & Paper Players

Image
Dean & I had an evening to relax (after he buzzed in the city to show is parents how to use the remote control once again)...wow...what a week...and what a fun evening to sit, chat, create a card for a dear friend and watch Dean flip from American Pickers, Super Bowl...and whatever else he chose! and I played and shuffled paper around, shuffled a little more...but it did come together! Oh what fun to play...and I get to do this again tonight, the girls are coming over and we are working on whatever we choose, nothing to teach, just sharing my toys and lovin' it! I followed two challenges as I was creating my card ~ CTD #117 was fabulous and I couldn't wait to play and this absolutely perfect sketch was from the Paper Players...and as I was putting my post together, I realized that I was toooooooo late to submit to the PP#80 ~ oh well, I still had a blast :-) Thanks girls for this wonderful challenges that you throw our way! I love joining in the fun  here is my dear fri...

No Stampin ~ but lots of Knitting!

Image
Well I was really hoping to have some stampin' time this week, but it ended up being 6 days in the hospital ~ I had to rush my father-in-law into emergency after a routine check up ~ So my week consisted of visiting with my mother-in-law (really struggled with leaving her alone) and then bringing her up to see dad every day and then visiting with both of them...so...no stampin' for this girl...but knit, wow, did I knit...here's a shot of a hat that I knit for our grandson Isaac, this one was too small for him, so I whipped up another one and it fit him beautifully! I should have taken a picture of Isaac with his hat on so you could see how adorable this looks on a childs head! So now I own a smaller version of the same hat....hmmmmm...maybe I should sell some of my creations...I seem to be knitting more than card creating...oh how it hurts to say that! I also knit two adorable baby beanies, but I haven't taken a picture of those yet...I will post them, hopefully some...
