The card - found a pile of paint swatches in a drawer when I was looking for something and decided I might as well use one....remember using these?  The flowers are from SU, embossed in white on the paint swatch.  Sentiment is from Savvy Stamps. 

I decided my main focus this week would be to get my class projects done....so, that's what I'm working on.

Have a great day!

The card - leaves are from SU, sentiment is from A Muse.  Colors are artichoke, cajun, kraft and vanilla.

As soon as I figure out what I'm doing today I will get busy doing it :)  It's a pretty free week for me so I really want to take advantage of the time and get some things accomplished.  Just not sure where to start........

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - another snowman applique piece.  This one will be a pillow as soon as I get the sewing machine out to make the pillow casing :) 

Looking forward to an afternoon of stamping fun with Judy S today and then an evening of football - Go Broncos!

Have a great day!

The card - floral stamp is from SU, sentiment is from Hero Arts.  Colors are cajun and white.

Wow, I slept in a bit today, that's pretty unusual for me!  I'm hoping my body is getting ready for the time change in a couple of weeks :)   I did get some stamping done yesterday, although not as much as I would have liked.  But, heck, anything is better than nothing, right?  Now I need to figure out what to work on today!  There's plenty to choose from, that's for sure!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped image is from SU.  The brick embossing folder is a new one I got at Hobby Lobby - I had been wanting one that went sideways instead of up and down and couldn't pass it up when I saw it!  Colors are black & white.

Have a lot of things Iwant to get done in the next few days.  Guess I'll just pick one today and get started!

Have a great day!

The card - flower is from Bo-Bonny, sentiment is from Hampton Art.  Colors are kraft, vanilla and black.

Somehow the things I have intended to do the last few days just haven't gotten done.....I keep getting side-tracked and it doesn't seem like I have really accomplished much.  Never got around to doing my errands yesterday so I guess I should get those done today .... and since I have class tonight I need to get stuff set up for that....... and just maybe I can can focus and get some other chores done :)

Have a great day!

The card - just some printed paper, a die cut leaf and a sentiment (from Printworks).  The panel on the right is a sepearate piece and is popped up. 

Have a couple of errands to do today,  and then I really need to start thinking about some class projects for next month. 

Have a wonderful day!

Project Sunday - this is a small applique piece that I just finished.  It's in a 5 x 7 frame.

Not sure what I'm doing today.....I do need to make a trip to the grocery store at some point, but other than that I have no plans.  Maybe some stitchin', maybe some stamping, maybe just an r & r day!

Have a great day!

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!
