The card - has anyone been stamping long enough that they remember this stamp from SU? It's pretty darn old - but I still think it's rather 'cute' so I decided I should use it on a card.
I have errands to do today then our regular Friday night get-together tonight. Hopefully I can be productive and not just social! What a concept.
Have a great day!
The card - flowers are from For All You Do (SU) - sentiment is from Hero Arts. Colors are razzleberry, melon mambo and artichoke.

Happy stampin'
The card - a guy thing - had to play with some new stamps from Stampers Anonomous (Tim Holtz) A pretty simple layout. The car is cut out and popped up.
I have no clue what I'm going to do today. It seems like I had a plan, but I don't remember what it was - oh well, I'm sure I'll find something to keep me busy. (or not!)
Have a wonderful day.

Didn't get much of anything accomplished yesterday - I think my friends passed on whatever cold/sinus thing they have going on. I spent most of the day sleeping on the sofa. So, that means I must get my Shoe box project done before our get together tonight.
Have a wonderful day.

Happy stampin'
Scrappin Sunday - a bit of Super Bowl history (and scrappin' history too!) Couldn't resist. I did this page in 1999 - wow - there's been just a bit of change in my scrappin' style since then.
Work today - have to get my card kits bagged for classes this week. And work on Tracy's 'save the date' cards.
Enjoy your day!
Photo Saturday - this is another picture that Tracy took while she was in Buma - this was one of my favorites.
Too much fun yesterday - lunch, shopping, and a lot of laughs! It was a great day! Not sure what I'm doing today - Linda and I had planned a day trip to Rifle Falls to take some pictures but decided to postpone that trip because the forecast is calling for snow. Dang! So.......maybe some stamping today - I have a few new stamps I can play with.
Hope your weekend is off to a wonderful start!

A play day today! Yea! Judy S and I are going to do something fun - not sure what that's going to be yet, but I'm looking forward to a fun and relaxing day! (and yes, I did get my house cleaned yesterday - the upstairs anyway - woohoo!)

Enjoy your day!
The card - stamps are from Papertrey - flowers from Prima - card is vanilla - ribbon is kraft. Label shape is die cut from Sizzix. Super easy.
Let's see - clean house, laundry, cut and bag kits, or errands - those are my choices for today. (can you tell I didn't choose cleaning the house yesterday? - maybe today!)
Have a wonderful day.
The card - stamp is from For All You Do (SU) - colors are basic grey, durango and saffron. I loved the look of this color combination when I saw it on someone's blog - just wanted to give it a try.
I'm trying to decide whether to work on class projects today or clean house - it's a toss-up - so I guess I'll see what I'm in the mood for after I've had a bit more caffieine.
Have a wonderful day.
Scrappin' Sunday - a layout with pictures from Christmas. Paper is from Bo-bunny. I need to add some names and journaling to this page - oops!

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend.

More snow? Holy Cow! I was just beginning to be able to see the gravel in the driveway and the grass on the lawn again. Now it's a blanket of white again. Geez! Isn't it time for spring now???? Well, Ok, I know it's January and I live in Colorado, but still......... Have no idea what my plans are for the day - guess I really don't have any yet. I might just spend the day watching soap operas and eating bon bons - oh wait - I don't like soap operas and I have no bon bons! Dang! Guess I will have to come up with with a better plan.
Have a great day!
The card - stamp is Upsy Daisy (SU) I stamped the full image and then used a punch to to get the seperate squares. Colors are white and bermuda bay.
I kept getting side-tracked yesterday and didn't quite get all my work done that I had planned. So, today I need to get the kits cut and bagged for class tonight. But, hopefully I can get that done this morning so I can do a couple of errands this afternoon.
Have a great day!
The card - something a little different today - this is a hybrid card. Yep, I did part of this card on the computer using MDS (My Digital Studio) from SU. The kraft piece with the white medallion stamp is the part I did on the computer. I actually printed 2 of them and punched out the inner circle so I could pop it up. I cut the piece to the size I wanted and layered it on soft suede and then on a white card. I stamped the Happy Birthday (Papertrey) and added the ribbon and the pearl.
Need to get myself organized today - have to cut and bag kits for tomorrow night's class, plus get set up for class tonight.
Happy stampin'
The card - a little bit of Valentine's today. This one is kind of traditional - colors are riding hood red and white. I used the Vintage wheel on the white piece. Hearts are die cuts.
Need to get some paper work done this morning - yuk! Not my favorite thing, but a necessity. Then I think I will get started on Tracy's 'save the date' cards. I need to come up with some prototypes so she can decide what she wants.
Happy stampin'
Scrappin' Sunday - this was a layout we did in scrap class and I just added some fun pictures from Thanksgiving.
I'm planning another day of holing up in my stamp room - I think it's time to get started on some Valentine cards. (that's after I clean up the 'creative mess' I made yesterday)
Hope you are having a fabulous weekend.
Photo Saturday - my daughter Tracy just returned from a trip to Burma (which, in her words was 'oh so amazing') She sent me some pictures yesterday via e-mail and I just wanted to share this one with you.I'm going to try and get creative this weekend and get some class projects done - or at least started! I have some awesome paper just waiting to be made into a book, so that's my goal today.
Hope your weekend is off to a wonderful start!

Yesterday was a real scrappin' marathon for me - 10 hours of fun, food and great company and......I got 6 two-page layouts done! Yea! Loved it - I can hardly wait for the next one in February.
I'm hoping Judy S is still planning coming to stamp today - hopefully I can get cards done today and I will feel really good that it was such a productive weekend.
Hope you are having a great weekend.

Have a great day!

Hope you are having a great weekend.
Photo Saturday - sunset and snow on the Colorado National Monument - taken from my front yard.

Happy stampin'
Scrappin' Sunday - a blast from the past. This is a layout I did with some pictures from when I closed the store. (can't believe it's been 2 1/2 years!) The background layout is one we did in scrap class and I just added the pictures.
Deb is coming to stamp this afternoon - a good thing for me! I desperately need to get some cards done - haven't really done much stamping for the last month. So, hopefully I will be inspired and get lots done.
Hope you are having a great weekend!
The card - this is another card that Emily so kindly let us do from her class. Colors are kraft, vanilla and suede. Stamp set is Serene Snowflakes.
