Misc Sunday - I didn't make this little guy - bought him at the craft show last weekend in Parachute - isn't he just the cutest?

Back to work on class projects and Christmas decorations today.  I got a little of both done yesterday, but not nearly enough.

Have a terrific day!

Photo Saturday - sharing Jeff's photo from downtown on Main Street at sunset

Somehow I managed to get through yesterday without accomplishing much of anything....hmmmm...not sure how that happened.  So, today I am going to get some class projects done this morning and then start on the Christmas decorations this afternoon.  And that's my plan!  And I'm sticking to it!!

Have a great day.

The card - one last 'fallish' card.  The leaves are from a die cut - crumpled up and sponged.    The sentiment is from SU, stamped in black and punched out with oval punch.  The leaves and sentiment are popped up.  Colors are wisteria, honey and meadow.

I have class projects that need to be done by next week - and the Christmas decorations have to put up by then too.  Hmmm.......guess I will work on either class projects or decorating today. Glad I have Friday night crafting to look forward to :)

Have a wonderful day!

Counting my many blessings.......

Happy

Thanksgiving

The card - stamped images are from SU.  background stuff is stamped in black, leaves are stamped with mossy meadow and cajun.   Sentiment is stamped and punched out with an oval punch and then popped up.

Have a couple of last minute errands to do today and then I should get a little cleaning done - well, actually probably a lot of cleaning :)

Have a great day!

The card - leaf stamp is from SU.  I stamped the leaf in 3 different colors - blackberry, honey and cajun, and then punched them out with a square punch.  The squares are popped up on the card panel.

Time to get some chores done around the  house - I've managed to make a mess in most every room!  Need to get the classroom ready for tonight's class too!

Have a terrific day.

The card - stamped image is from SU.  The image is stamped in black and then I just added some bling.  The panel is popped up.   Another super easy one!

Off to do some errands this morning - or at least sometime today - maybe I'll wait til it's a little warmer.  But I need to get to the grocery store for sure!

Have a wonderful day.

Project Sunday - a table mat I finished this week.  This is what I would call a medium size - it's about 14".  

Going to breakfast with my friend Eileen this morning and then we'll be coming back here to stitch.  Have lots to get done in the coming weeks!

Have a terrific day!

Photo Saturday - sharing another one of Jeff's photos from the Colorado National Monument.  (I really need to get out and take some pictures of my own :)

And we're off on an adventure today - Judy S and I are going to the craft show in Parachute this morning.  I haven't been to a craft show in a long, long time so I'm looking forward to it.  Should be fun......

The card - hexagon stamp/punch is from SU.  I added a bit of grunge in the background and some small prima flowers.  Colors are honey and mossy meadow.

Hmmm...not sure exactly what direction I'm heading in today.  Looking forward to some stitching time tonight with Emily, but in the meantime I think I need to start figuring out what the heck I'm doing for Christmas gifts.

Have a wonderful day.

The card - leaf stamp is from SU.  Just added some Prima flowers and a sentiment to the panel.  The panel is popped up on the embossed panel.  Super easy!

Hoping to finish up a stitching project today and then I'll need to get ready for class tonight.

Have a great day!

The card - leaves are die cut from SU, sentiment is also from SU.  Colors are honey and midnight muse.

Sorry you didn't see a post from me yesterday - my internet and phone were out most of the day.  I feel so out of touch when that happens :)   I got some errands done but have a few more I should do today.  Also need to start work on Christmas gifts - or at least start thinking about it!

Have a great day!

The card - The leaf is punched out of a piece of card stock that I stamped with an old script stamp. I sponged the leaf after I punched it out.  The strip is embossed with a music embossing folder that I did at an angle.  Colors are white and mossy meadow.

Need to get the classroom cleaned up before class tonight - I made quite the mess in there on Saturday and just kind of left it :)  I also started the laundry several days ago and kind of got side-tracked so I need to finish that too.

Have a terrific day!

Misc Sunday - a couple more of my purchases - I did buy something besides wool stuff :)  Couldn't resist this cute little black sheep for my wool room and the sign just needed to be in my house!!!

I spent the entire day yesterday stamping - got quite a batch of cards done - whew!  Now today I'm taking a break, having lunch with my friend Eileen and then we're coming back to the house to get some stitching done - oh yes, I love days like this!

Have a wonderful day.

Photo Saturday - sharing one of Jeff's photos today.  This was taken just south of Grand Junction on Reeder Mesa.

Let's see, my choices today are to clean house or spend the day stamping......hmmm....hard choice :)

Have a great day!

The card - leaves are from Hero Arts.  Hello is a new die cut that I got on my spending spree while we were at our friend Sherry's.  The card is vanilla and the strips on the side are some patterned paper from my stash.

Aw...the busy part of the week is over - and I even got my calendar toppers done - yay!  Now I need to re-group and figure out what needs to be done next.  I hate to mention it, but I really need to start thinking about Christmas gifts!  And Christmas cards!  Oh my!  I think for today I will just try to get a few chores done around here and look forward to our Friday night crafting and stitching!

Have a super day!

The card - stamped image (presents) are from SU.  I inked the stamp by coloring it with markers.  It's cut out and popped up.  Colors are white, black, bermuda bay and coastal cabana.

Back to work on calendar toppers today.  What was in my head just wasn't transferring well to paper yesterday - darn! I hate when that happens.....frustrating.  Now I can only hope I can come up with something today that will actually work.

Have a great day!

The card - a super simple one today - trying to use up some of the huge stash of printed paper.

I really need to get caught up on some stuff today - tomorrow is our Shoebox Club and I need to get calendar toppers done....... that probably should be my priority today!  Then I will need to get ready for class tonight.

Have a great day!

The card - flower is made with 2 seperate stamps/punches from SU.  Both layers of the flower are popped up.  Colors are black and white.

Whew - got the class stuff finished, but I have to get in and get the class room cleaned up before class this morning.  (cut that one a little close :)  Have to go get a haircut this afternoon and then back for another class tonight.  Busy day.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - leaf is punched, scrunched up and distressed.  I made the small frame by punching a square in espresso card stock and then cutting around it leaving a border.  I stamped the sentiment on a piece of plain white and attached it under the frame - the frame is popped up. 

Whew, lots to do today.  Have to finish up the class projects, get them cut and bagged, get at least a little stamping done so I have something to post here on the blog and I'd really like to finish cleaning up the yard before it gets cold and rains later this week.  Hmm....guess I'll just do my best!

Have a great day!
