Project Sunday - a 'black sheep' needle case I made the other night
And speaking of Black Sheep - that's where I'm off to today - it's Black Sheep Sunday, so in just a bit I will be meeting my friend Eileen for breakfast and then we'll be spending the rest of the day stitching. Yay!
Have a great day!

The card - this is the card I did for our Shoebox Club in February. The flower is from SU. I stamped it twice (with strawberry slush) and then cut the center out of one and popped it up in the center of the main flower. Leaf stamp is from Hero Arts and background stamp is from Kaiser Kraft. The banner piece on the side is made from vellum.
Haven't quite decided what I'm doing today. I probably should do some laundry and there's always household chores that need to be done. We'll see! I'm looking forward to Friday night crafting though - always a highlight in my week :)
Have a great day!

The card - flowers are from SU, background 'splotches' are from Paper Trey Ink.
I was very productive yesterday (for a change!) The class projects are all done, cut and bagged and ready for classes next week - yay! Now I can go to Wool Gatherer's this afternoon and have a nice relaxing time stitching!
Have a terrific day!

The card - stamped images and butterfly die are all from SU. The background pieces are stamped with smoky slate, except for the leaves which are stamped with pear. The butterfly is black and the sentiment is stamped with black.
I really need to do some errands, but it's going to depend on the weather I guess. No desire to go out in the rain so we'll see what's up with that in a bit.
Have a wonderful day!

The card - flower is from SU. Added some speckles to the background of the 'tag' and the sentiment is stamped to the left. The tag is popped up. Colors are white and marigold.
Well, yesterday got away from me and I didn't get much of anything done - I did go to the grocery store, but that was it. Hopefully I can do better today. But no matter what, I have Friday night crafting to look fowrard to - yay!
Have a wonderful day!

Time to get started on class projects for March. It's hard to believe this is the last week of February. But that means spring is just that much closer! Yay!

The card - just a little splash of color with some grunge stamps from Paper Trey Ink and an added sentiment. Super easy!
Snow! Yuk! We have had such a mild winter (and I've so been enjoying it!) Temps in the 50's is really not a normal winter for us. But it was nice while it lasted. Now there's enough snow on the ground this morning that I will have to go out and shovel the sidewalks soon.
Have a wonderful day!

The card - super simple one. Stamped images are from Paper Trey Ink, stamped in a variety of colors. Added a sentiment - can't get any easier than that!
A free day with no commitments - oh my - haven't had one of those for a while. But I need to finish up the birthday cards for church so that's going to be my priority for today.
Have a super great day!

The card - stamped images are from Paper Trey Ink. I stamped the circle scribble shapes in black and then colored them with copics. Kind of fun and funky!
Time to do some chores and get some cleaning done in the house. Jeff & Sara and our friend Shelley are coming for dinner so it will be a fun evening.
Have a great day!
Monday, February 16, 2015
The card - flower is from Penny Black. I inked the stamp with markers. Colors are white, blackberry bliss and meadow.
I really need to get some birthday cards ready for the church since I never got around to doing that last week. Also need to make a trip to the grocery store since I invited the children to dinner tomorrow night. And I need to get the classroom set up for class tonight. I guess I should have enough to do to keep me busy today!
Have a wonderful day.

Photo Saturday - I finally found some time to take a drive last weekend, so had a nice afternoon driving over the Colorado National Monument and taking some photos.
Going to lunch with a friend from out of town today. We always end up having really long lunches, so I probably won't be too motivated to do much of anything else today - but that's ok.
Have a great day!

The card - easy peasy! The hearts are punched out of printed paper. The sentiment is stamped on a flagged strip and popped up!
Winding down to the end of a very busy week. Need to work on some birthday cards for church - hopefully I can motivate myself to do that today. If not, there's always tomorrow :) Looking forward to our regular Friday night crafting!

Back to work on class projects today. I did get the scrapbook pages done for class last night, now it's time to get the cards done for classes that start next week.
Have a wonderful day!

Not sure where my creativity was yesterday, but it certainly wasn't around here. Now I'm down to the wire - have to get projects done before class tonight - guess I better get to it!
Have a great day!

The card - time for a little Valentine's stuff. This is a super easy one - I stamped some spoltches (from SU) in the background and then added some punched out hearts in two different sizes. Easy!
Time to figure out class projects for this month. Have to go to a Dr's appointment this morning, but then I will be spending the rest of the day trying to be creative.

Have to finish getting my house cleaned up this morning. I have some friends coming for lunch that I haven't seen in probably 30 years. Oh my, how time flies! I'm looking forward to a fun afternoon!
Have a great day!

The card - flower stamp is from Penny Black. I inked the stamp with markers, then stamped it three times without re-inking. Colors are cameo coral, olive and white.
Well, the garage is about as tidy as it's going to get. I think I really need to get rid of some more stuff, but it's ok for now. Today I need to get some laundry done and do a couple of errands. Looking forward to Friday night crafting!
Have a great day!
Thursday, January 29, 2015
The card - some grunge stuff - background stamps are from Paper Trey Ink. Colors are kraft, smoky slate and tangelo.
Have no idea what possessed me yesterday, but I decided it was time to straighten up the garage. I had tubs of Christmas stuff that never quite made it all the way to where they belonged, plus some other stuff that never quite got put away. Of course, it has turned into more than just a one-day job, so I am going to try and finish that up today!
Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU. Colors are cantaloupe, kraft and white.
No idea what I'm doing today. I probably should start thinking about class projects for next month and maybe I can motivate myself to do that today.....hmmm....or not! There's so many things that I need to do I really need to just pick one and do it!
Have a great day!

The card - scribble circles are from Paper Trey Ink. I stamped them in black and then colored them with copic markers. Just something a little different :)
I'm off to do some errands today. Running out of some essential items (like toilet paper) that I need to get stocked up on. After that I will need to get the classroom cleaned up for tonight's class.
Yesterday's background embossing folder was from Darice (no idea what the name of it is)

The card - flower image is from SU. I love this new flower stamp - it's actually three stamps and you layer it to get all the shading effects - pretty cool. The colors are black, white and blackberry.
I'm going to try and get some stuff cleaned up around here today. Since I spent most of the weekend stamping (and I got quite a lot done too!) I need to get some things straightened up and get myself organized for the coming week.
Have a terrific day!

The card - a Penny Black flower, inked with markers, stamped on a piece of patterned paper from 7 Gypsies. Easy!
I'm going to try and get some chores done today - somehow I thought I'd get more done this week since I had a fairly free week - hmmm, didn't happen. The week is almost over and I really haven't accomplished much of anything - how the heck did that happen? Oh well, there's always next week! Looking forward to Friday night crafting tonight.
Have a wonderful day!

The card - leaves are from Paper Trey Ink, flower is 3 different flower stamps/punches from SU. Each flower layer is stamped, punched out and then popped up on top of the larger layer. Colors are meadow and honey.
I had such a good time yesterday. We had a great lunch, did some shopping (Judy watched me spend money) and just generally had a great day. Thanks Judy for a fantastic day (and we didn't even get into any trouble :) Now today I suppose I should try to accomplish something - not sure what, but I'll try to figure out something. (I'm more in the mood to have another fun day!)
Have a great day!
Wednesday, January 21, 2015
The card - stamped images are from SU - same flower as yesterday. I used part of the flower stamp to make the 'greenery' at the bottom.
And we're off on an adventure today - Judy S and I are going to lunch in Delta and see what we can find in the Delta/Montrose area. It's been too long since we've had a day to play, so we're going to make the most of it. Looking forward to a fun day!
Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped images are from SU. I love this new flower stamp! Colors are mossy meadow and cantaloupe.
It's been crazy busy for the last couple of weeks and now all of a sudden I have some extra time.....and I didn't make a plan. Oh oh, I don't do so well when I don't have a plan. I know there's lots of chores and such I want to get done, but for the life of me I can't remember what they were. Hmmm....guess I'll go with the flow today - maybe I'll do some more stamping.....or maybe I'll do some stitching.....or maybe I'll go for a drive and take some photos.
Have a terrific day!

The card - flower is from Penny Black. I inked the stamp with markers - colors are primrose and olive. The 'Hello' is a die cut from Elizabeth Craft Designs.
Time to get some chores done around here - the most important one being the laundry. Hopefully I can multi-task and get the classroom ready for tonight's class too!
Have a wonderful day!
