Photo Sunday .....

No big plans for today.  Going for a walk.....making a trip to the grocery store and then???   Not a clue.  Hopefully I'll get motivated to do something!

Have a great day!

Yep, that's about the truth!  LOL

Looking forward to breakfast with a friend and then an afternoon spent crafting with that friend!  

Have a wonderful day!

The card - I stamped the image (SU) on a piece of white card stock 3 times and then cut the white piece into 4 even strips.  I matted the pieces on a piece of black card stock and then popped up that piece on the card front.  Pretty darn easy!

'Grandma time' with Ethan today.  Looking forward to a nice, relaxing day of baby snuggles!  Also looking forward to our crafting night with a couple of friends!    

Have a great day!

The card  - just some patterned paper with an added sentiment and some ribbon.   Super easy!


Time to do some cleaning and laundry.  Too much time spent sitting this week - I need to move!  So, today's goal is to get some housework done!   (and I did get a few cards done yesterday - yay!)

Have a wonderful day!

The card - super easy - just some strips of patterned paper with an added die cut sentiment and a bit of border stamp.  Great way to use of scraps of paper!

Spent the entire day yesterday in the stamp room - made one card!  Still can't figure out how that happened.  LOL!  Guess there are just days like that - glad they don't happen too often.  Guess I'll try again today - maybe I'll have better luck.

Have a great day!

The card - background piece is embossed with a strip of patterned paper added to the side.  The flower and leaves (SU) are stamped, die cut and popped up.  I added a bit of bling to the center of the flower.  The sentiment piece is die cut and popped up.

I got a new toy - I finally got a Stamparatus from SU.  Never felt the need for one before, but decided it was something I needed.  😉  So, I've been watching videos and playing just a bit - oh my, what fun things you can do!  Today I'm going to play some more and see if I can actually make some cards using it!  

Have a wonderful day!

The card - the two background pieces are embossed.  The flowers are from a piece of patterned paper. (SU)   I colored them a bit with copics, then cut them out and popped them up.

The card - love this new paper from Stampin up - it's my favorite - black and white.  The flowers are cut out from a piece of the patterned paper and popped up.  So easy!  

A little of this and that today.  Chores and errands to do and a stamping mess to clean up!  

Have a terrific day!

The card - just a simple Valentine's Card (or Anniversary) .  The smaller panel is embossed.  The hearts and the word love are die cut.  The love tag is popped up.

I think it's going to be another stamping day - as soon as I clean up the mess I made yesterday - lol!  Wish I was a neater stamper!!  But, no matter how hard I try it always gets out of control!  Oh well.  Such is life!!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - Images (SU) are stamped in black.  The flowers are colored just a bit here and there.  I colored the dragonfly with copics.

I really don't have a plan for today.....I'm thinking that doing some stamping sounds like a good idea though.  

Have a great day!

A 'Grandma day' with both boys today - yay!    And gotta say, getting the vaccine shot yesterday was so super easy.  They were so organized and so nice!  In and out in 20 minutes!  My arm is a bit sore this morning, but not bad!   Second dose is scheduled in 3 weeks!  

Have a wonderful day!

The card - Each layer is die cut and the bottom two are embossed.  The top layer is patterned paper.  The sentiment is die cut with a stamped sentiment and is popped up.  Super easy!

No idea what to do today.  I've about run out of cupboards that need to be cleaned or reorganized.  Thank goodness!  Still walls to decorate, but I'm still thinking on that one!  Looking forward to stitching with friends tonight!

Have a terrific day!

The card - I used some grunge stamps in the background.  The butterfly is stamped with black, colored a bit, punched out and popped up.  The sentiment is stamped directly on the background piece and I added some ribbon.

Making progress with the whole cleaning and reorganizing thing.  Wanting a bit of change on the wall decor, but can't quite figure out what I want!  Just something different mostly......there may be some blank walls for awhile until I figure it out - lol!

Have a great day!

The card - background piece is embossed.  Smaller panel is die cut.  Strip in the center is patterned paper.  Flower is stamped, die cut and popped up.  Leaves are die cut.

Time to clean house.  That's my only plan for the day - and it will probably take me all day.....still have some messes from cleaning out a couple of cupboards.  (why does it all come out, but there's never room for it to all go back in????)

Have a wonderful day!
