Photo Saturday - at Riverbend Park in Palisade

A couple of the Good Time Girls are coming today - yay!  I'm going to get my Smash book caught up and then if I have some time I'm going to work on Jeff & Sara's wedding album.

Have a fabulous day!

The card - leaves and background splotches are from SU, sentiment is from Clear & Simple Stamps.  The leaf in front is cut out and popped up.  Colors are vanilla, espresso, kraft and cajun.

I'm going to try and get started on cleaning up some stuff in the basement today.  Doesn't sound like much fun but it needs to be done!

Enjoy your day!

The card - playing with a new die - got this hexagon die (from Die-namics) on our trip last month so I had to see what I could do with it.  Kind of fun......just scraps of paper and a sentiment.

Went to see the movie 'Here Comes the Boom" yesterday.....go see it if you can....it was a great 'feel good' movie....very funny! 

Have no clue what I'm going to do today....need to figure that out I guess.  I will have to get ready for class tonight at some point. 

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped imaged is from SU.  I inked the stamp with markers (cajun & espresso).  I used a border stamp from Cuttlebug along the bottom.  Colors are kraft, cajun, espresso and vanilla.

Finishing up some projects this morning and then Judy S and I are going to the movie this afternoon.  That will be a nice break!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Colors are white and eggplant.

I actually got some stamping done yesterday - woo hoo!  Now I just have to take pictures of the cards I did :)  Today Deb and I will be doing some stitchin' while her car is in the shop.  Sounds like a good day to me!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - really liked this layout, but think I might like it better with different paper.  (or maybe just a different background piece!)  I will have to try this one again :)

Not sure which direction my day is going..... haven't quite recovered from my 'busy week' yet I guess.  I think I may just do some stamping....after all, my room is all cleaned up and we can't leave it like that, right?

Enjoy your day!

Oops - it's another Photo Day - I just realized I hadn't taken any pictures of new projects.......I'll have to get that done before next week :)

Need to finish up some chores this morning, then it's stitchin' time at the quilt store this afternoon.  Then I have company coming for dinner.....it's Judy's husband's birthday today (Happy Birthday Bob!)  so we're doing chicken and noodles tonight.  A full day, but mostly filled with fun stuff :)

Have a great day!

Photo Saturday - on Grand Mesa

It's time to get some household chores done - laundry would be at the top of that list for sure.  Then I need to head to the grocery store.  Oh yeah, lots of fun stuff today :)

Enjoy your day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  I used SU's postage punch for the squares.  Colors are limeade, black, white and tangerine.  (had to laugh - I glued the square with the ghost on upside down and didn't even notice until now :)

Whew....it's been quite a week.  Now today I find myself with a free day - no commitments, nothing that has to be done.  Lots of things that need to be done though, and I guess I should start with cleaning up my work room...I've made quite the mess the last couple of days.  So, I'll start there and then see what else I can be motivated to do. 

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  I stamped the leaves on a piece of vanilla, then cut it into strips before adhering to the card.  Colors are cajun, cherry cobbler and olive.

Shoebox Club tonight...and I still haven't got my calendar topper done.  I worked on it all day yesterday and couldn't make anything come out right....don't you just hate those days?  So, it's back to work on that today. 

Have a fabulous day!

The card - super simple - just some srtips of paper, a sentiment and a button:)

I've been jumping from season to season lately with Halloween, fall and even Christmas.  Now I've got to think spring and come up with a calendar topper for May for our Shoebox Club tomorrow night....so that's what I'm working on today.

Enjoy your day!

A full day today - class this morning, stitchin' time at Laura's studio this afternoon and then class again tonight!

The card - not a lot of stamping here.  Die cut leaves, die cut chevrons and a leaf embossing folder.  I do wish I had crumpled up the leaves, they look a little blah.  Colors are kraft, mustard, cajun and vanilla.

Lots of stuff to get done today so I will be prepared for this week.  Looking forward to our Stamp Club with Deb tonight  - that's always fun!

Enjoy your day!

Project Sunday - a simple table mat with mittens. 

I did get my class projects figured out yesterday - yay!....but I made quite the mess doing it (as usual) so I need to get that cleaned up this morning because Judy S is coming over to play this afternoon.  

Have a wonderful day!

Have a great day!

The card - this is the card I did for our Shoebox Club last month.  The images are all printed using SU's MDS program.  I added the chevron die cuts from Die-Namics for a little dimension.


Yard work today....I'm determined to get the yard cleaned up before it gets too cold :)


Enjoy your day!

 The card - time for a little Halloween.  Stamped image is from Inkadinkado (I think).  Patterned paper is from Authentique (this is one of my favorite Halloween lines this year :)  

Yard work today....and if I have any ambition left after that I need to get the fall decorations out. 

Have a wonderful day!
