More de-cluttering today - have a closet in the basement that needs some serious attention.  

Enjoy your day!

Have a great day!

Have a great day!

The card -  butterfly is from Hero Arts, sentiment is A Muse, not sure about the flourish.  Colors are pear, black and saffron.

Thanks to my techie friend I think the whole picture thing is fixed now.  Whew!    I really need to focus this week and get some things done.  I have a whole week free - no commitments  - and that doesn't happen very often.  Household chores, class projects, I have quite the list of things to do!

Have a wonderful day.

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Colors are espresso, riding hood red and white.   (I really need to get some more 'projects' and scrapbook pages done to post on Sundays:)

Still thinking about cleaning house - but thinking about it is as far as I've gotten.  Somehow it just doesn't sound like fun.  Maybe I can motivate myself to get started today - or not!  I did get some stamping done yesterday so the day wasn't a total loss.

Enjoy your day!

A note:  The picture of the card doesn't seem to be showing up on the published post - I have no idea what the problem is - sorry 'bout that!

Photo Saturday - a bit of a different view of Grand Mesa.

Clean house today?.....um...maybe.  I'm leaning more towards stamping.  We'll see what the decision is after I finish waking up.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped images are from SU - sentiment is from A Muse.  Colors are kraft, celery, and black.  The image in the center was embossed in white on the printed paper, then I sponged a bit of kraft on top.

Whoa, when I said yesterday that I needed some sunshine, I should have said I needed sunshine and no wind!  Holy cow - I thought we were going to get blown into Kansas yesterday (I think some of the shingles from my roof probably ended up there!)  It was not nice.   Hopefully today will be better. 

A couple of errands today and then class tonight.

Enjoy your day!

Oh, spring, spring, wherefore art thou?   It's supposed to be windy and cloudy again today - yuk!  I need to see some sunshine!    Also need to get things cleaned up and organized for class tonight.  But I do have a lunch date with a friend today so that will be a nice break.

Have a fabulous day!

Photo Saturday - took this picture last week when I was playing with my new camera.  Corn Lake with Mt Garfield in the background.  

I am going to try and get some household stuff done today - I've put it off all week so hopefully I can get myself motiated today and be productive.  (it's a good plan anyway).

Have a great day

What's up with the winter weather?  I just broke out the flip flops, now it's cold, raining and dreary.  Ugh!   Good day to stay in and get some household chores done I guess.  (or take a nap and read a book!)

Have a wonderful day!

May soft be the grass you walk on,

May fair be the skies above you,

May true be the joys that surround you,

May dear be the hearts that love you.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

A new look for the ol' blog.  What do you think?  I was trying to get away from plain and boring - might have gone a bit over the top.    I think it might be a work in progress so you may see more changes.   I also changed the comment  section - it's much easier now to leave a comment!

A play day today!  Judy and I are off to Delta for lunch and a little scrapbook retail therapy!  Yea! 

Have a wonderful day!

Have a great day!

The card - background stamp is from First Edition - leaf and butterflies are Hero Arts. Colors are kraft, and pear. I used copic markers to color the butterflies.

Not sure what my plans are for the day.......maybe after a little more caffeine I will be able to come up with a plan. (or not!)

Have a great day!

Scrappin' Sunday - well, at least it's the beginning of a scrapbook. This is what I spent the day yesterday doing- sorting and organizing photos from Tracy's wedding. They are all organized now - I'm ready to start putting them on layouts!

The last week has been a busy one - I'm ready for a little r & r today. Maybe a little stamping.......

Enjoy your day!

Photo Saturday - sunrise on Wednesday.

This is the first picture I took with my new camera. I did my taxes early (for me!), anxiously waited for my refund, got it! - and ordered my new camera - a Canon Rebel T1i! I'm so excited! I had SLR cameras for years when film was still the thing - when I switched to digital I thought I would like having a smaller camera. I do love my smaller ones, but have wanted a digital SLR for a LONG time! So......I splurged. I did only get the body (without a lense) since I have 3 lenses from my film cameras that will work. So, the camera came on Tuesday - my excitement for the week!

The Good Time Girls are coming to crop today - fun! I am going to start working on Tracy's wedding album - have a ton (over 600) photos to work with so it is going to be a major project.

Have a wonderful day!

Tonight is our Shoebox Club and believe it or not I got my card done yesterday - woo hoo! Today I am going to start sorting and labeling Tracy's wedding photos so I can get started on the wedding album.

The pattern and instructions for the quilt card from yesterday can be found at Split Coast Stampers.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - a quilt card. Have seen a lot of these lately so had to give it a try. The 'quilt' is pieced together then embossed with an embossing folder. Colors are kraft, baja and white.

Not sure exactly what direction I'm going in today. Have lots of things to do, just need to decide what has priority.

To answer a question from yesterday - the stamp set I used is SU's Nature Walk - it's in the current Occasions Mini Catalog.

Have a great day!

Class this morning, then again tonight - maybe I can get the laundry finished in between.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - butterflies are from Hero Arts. I used Tim Holtz Distress inks for this card. The side panel was sponged with 3 different colors, then spritzed with water. I used the same colors for the butterflies.

I have a big pile of stamps downstairs that need to be sorted and organized - since they're piled all over the tables I need for class tonight I guess it's time to get that organizing job done!

Enjoy your day!

Scrappin' Sunday - a layout with pictures from Christmas. The background is a layout we did in Scrap Class - just had to add the pictures.

Almost finished with card class stuff - just some cutting and bagging left to do - yea!

Have a wonderful day!

Photo Saturday - 'the bird with perfect timing' - just as I was taking what would have been just an ordinary sunset picture this bird flew right into the shot.

It's March - yea! That means February is over - yea! (February is not my favorite month of the year). That means spring! It's supposed to be another beautiful day - sunshine and temps in the high 50's. Woo hoo!

Have class tonight so need to get the kits cut and the class area cleaned up.

Have a great day!
