The card - just some pretty patterned paper with a stamped sentiment and a bit of twine.  Soooo  quick and easy!

No boys today - Hudson's test came back negative - yay! - so both boys are back at school today!  Hmmmm.....have so many things to choose from that I can do.  Don't have a clue, but I'm leaning towards doing some stamping!

Have a terrific day!

The card - I stamped the flower (SU) on the card front in the same color as the card stock.  The smaller panel is a piece of patterned paper.  The flower is stamped, die cut and popped up.  The sentiment piece is die cut and popped up.

'Grandma time'  with both boys today.  That's all!  (I did get the house cleaned, the laundry done  and a couple of errands done yesterday, so I am good to go for the week!!!)

Have a wonderful day!

The card - flowers are stamped on a small piece of cardstock.  Stampd with black and colored just here and there.  The piece is matted and popped up.  The dragonfly is stamped in black, colored, punched out and popped up.  The sentiment piece is die cut and also popped up.

No 'Grandma day' today.  Sara has the day off since it's a holiday.  There's been another positive Covid test in Hudson's class so they're trying to get him in for another test today or tomorrow.  I will probably have him the rest of the week so I probably should get my chores done today!

Have a wonderful day!

Looking forward to an 'adult day' today.  Have a friend coming to stamp today - don't even care if I'm super productive, it will just be nice to have some adult conversation for a whole day!   ðŸ˜€

Have a great day!

Crafty Saturday - and the 'other hat' is done!  Yay!  Jeff was excited that it fit!  (me too!)  So, now the whole family has matching hats!  LOL!   Glad that is done - now I can move on to other projects.

'Grandma time' with both boys today.  Poor Hudson was a bit under the weather yesterday - hope he's feeling better today!

Have a great day!

The card - just a cool sentiment (SU) on a die cut panel with a bit of grunge in the background.  Panel is matted and then added to a panel of patterned paper.  Super easy!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - a little bit of grunge in the background.  Bottom strip is washi tape, striped strip is stamped.  Dragonfly is stamped with black, colored with copics, punched out and popped up.  

Thought I was going to have Hudson today, but turned out Sara had the day off so she's keeping him.  Because of a Covid case at Pre-K, his section of the school is closed for the rest of the week.  So, I will get some extra Grandma time the rest of the week.  Yay!  But, that leaves today to try and be productive - doing what, I have no idea yet!

Have a terrific day!

And that's the truth!

Not sure what the plan is today.  I did get some organizing done in the stamp room yesterday which felt good.  Maybe I'll do a bit more - or maybe I'll just do some stamping.  

Have a great day!

The card - new stuff!  New paper, new stamps, new die cuts, new embossing folder!  (all from SU)  Yay!  The background is patterned paper, smaller panel is embossed.  Flower is stamped, die cut and popped up.  Sentiment piece is die cut with stamped sentiment.  

I've been fairly productive the last few days - woo hoo!  Now it's time to  clean up the mess and regroup.  Need to take photos of cards and get some things organized.  Looking forward to an evening stitching (or in my case, knitting!)  with friends!

Have a great day!

The card - right side is stamped with a background stamp.  Leaves are stamped directly on the background piece.  The flowers are stamped with black and then I stamped over the flowers with a grunge stamp to 'color' them.  Flowers are cut out and popped up. 

Going to try for another stamping day today.  I have quite a lot of free time this week so hopefully I can use it well and be productive!

Have a super great day!

The card - an easy one using patterned paper.  I die cut the rectangle out of the paper, matted the cut piece and then just popped it up where I had cut it out so the pattern lined up.  So easy!

'Grandma time' with Hudson today.  That's all.

Have a wonderful day!

Crafty Sunday - the beginning of another hat - Jeff's hat was too big, so now I'm starting  one that will fit better. (I hope) Sara liked the bigger one so eventually the whole family will have matching hats 😂

Didn't get much stamping done yesterday - made a big mess and got 1 card done.  I borrowed some new stamps from my friend Emily, so here's hoping that will get me more motivated and I'll have better luck today!

Have a terrific day!
