'Grandma time' with Hudson and Ethan today.  That means I'll have some extra help with grocery shopping and making dinner tonight :)

Have a wonderful day!

Project Sunday - finished this wool applique piece last week and finally got it in the frame.  Just in time!

Great overnight with the boys!  I think Jeff is picking them up fairly early this morning so thinking I still might get some time in the stamp room today!  Since either one or both of the boys will be here all week it might be my only chance to do some stamping for awhile :)

Have a great day!

Saturday Quote......

The boys will be arriving in a while to spend the night.  Hudson decided he wanted an overnight :)   I guess my plans for spending the next two days in the stamp room will have to wait  😂  It's all good!

Have a wonderful day!

Busy day coming up - a special Thanksgiving lunch today at Ethan's pre-school, then on to Grandparent's day at Hudson's school.  Early release today so Hudson will be coming home with me.  Then dinner tonight with a friend and back here to meet up with a couple of friends to work on our calendar projects.  Won't have time to be bored today :)

The cards - look at this!  These are the cards I made on Sunday.  18 Christmas cards in one day!  Super simple layouts using patterned paper  (49 and Market), rub-ons or a stamped sentiment and sometimes an added die cut border.  I felt very productive!

Today I'm meeting a friend for breakfast and then I need to come home and concentrate on  getting this month's card class stuff done!  That's my goal for today!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - background is embossed and is cut at an angle at the top.  (just for something different).  The stems are die cut.  Add some bling and twine.  Super easy!

Time to do a bit of housework - seems I've been putting it off for too long :)   So, I'll try to get some laundry done, the sheets washed and maybe even do some dusting.  Then I can enjoy my afternoon with the Needle Keepers.
