The card - a super simple one.  The sentiment is from SU.  It's stamped with mint macaron, matted and then popped up.  Ribbon is also mint macaron.

I'm taking a break from cleaning today.  Going to see Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible - just a little eye candy for some r & r today :)  Also looking forward to our Friday night crafting and some stitching time!

Have a great day!

The card - butterflies are from Hero Arts.  The sentiment is an old one I found in my butterfly drawer.  Colors are turquoise, pear and eggplant. 

Oh my, I'm overwhelmed with stuff.  I should have known better than to start a project like cleaning out stamp stuff :)  But, I'm on a roll - we'll see how much I can get through today!

Have a great day!

The card - flip flops and sentiment are from Papetrey.  Colors are Mint Macaron and white.  

Almost the entire house is now clean - I say almost because I still have to do some cleaning in the laundry room and the classroom.  But, since I'm in the mood I thought maybe I'd finish up those rooms today and maybe get a start on doing some organizing in the classroom.  Would really like to get rid of some excess stuff - we'll see how far I get!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Colors are kraft, espresso, watermelon, mint and white.  The ice cream cone is stamped and then cut out.  The ice cream pieces are stamped, punched out and popped up.

I need to get the rest of the household stuff cleaned up today, finish the laundry and then get ready for class tonight.  The mouse is still on the loose, but I don't know where - haven't caught him, but haven't seen him either.

Have a great day!

The card - background is an old script stamp I found in my drawer.  Butterflies and flowers are from SU.  The background is stamped with kraft, the flowers are stamped on top.  The butterflies are stamped, punched out and popped up.  Flowers are olive and blackberry.

Still haven't caught the mouse, but, I haven't seen it either.  Don't know if I scared it off or what.  I guess I'll put the stuff away in the kitchen and hope for the best.  Maybe I can also get the rest of the house cleaned today.  That would be a good thing!

Have a wonderful day!

Project Sunday - July's 'block of the month'

Well, the house still isn't clean.  Discovered I have a mouse in my kitchen.  So, I spent the entire day cleaning out the bottom cupboards and the drawers and washing everything in them.  I put a bunch of mousetraps around, but low and behold, I didn't catch a mouse last night.  Now I don't want to put everything back until I catch the darn thing.  Ugh - I hate mice!

Have a great day!

Photo Saturday - on Grand Mesa

I got most of the yard work done yesterday, so I guess It's time to get some house cleaning done.  Hmm...not sure I'm in the mood - we'll see - maybe I can figure out something else for today :)

Have a great day!

The  card -  stamped images are from SU.  Colors are white, kraft and watermelon.  A fairly simple one!

Not sure what I'm doing today - I'm trying to decide between doing some yard work or cleaning the house.  Neither sounds terribly exciting, but both need to be done.  I'll decide after I'm a little more awake.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped images are all from SU.  The images are all stamped with black - the flower was stamped with black on watermelon, punched out.  The leaves were stamped with black on mint and cut out.  

I think it's time to get some stamping done - at least that's my plan for today.

Have a terrific day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The clouds are stamped with smoky slate, punched out and popped up.  I punched a couple of extra clouds from vellum that are tucked behind.  I stamped the sun with daffodil and then added a punched circle in the center.

No plan for today - oh, oh, that usually means that I end up getting nothing accomplished.  Maybe I better come up with a plan :)   I do have to get ready for class tonight, so that's a start.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - leaf stem is from Hero Arts, flip flops are from Papertrey.  I punched out an oval on a separate piece of card stock and used it as a mask to sponge the oval area onto the panel.  

Hmmm....I had planned on doing a bit of yard work this morning....it's raining......not sure where that came from.  Maybe it won't last long and I can proceed with my original plan.  Guess we'll see....I may have to revise my plan.

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Colors are vanilla, mint macaron and black.

Time to get some chores done around here - laundry would be high on that list!  Probably should go to the grocery store too.  And I need to get ready for class tonight.  No lazing around for me today.

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - June's 'Block of the Month'

I still didn't get around to do any stamping yesterday - I ended up just having a 'do nothing' kind of day.  Read a book, took a nap, watched some tv - basically a really lazy day.  Today, I'm ready for some action...ha ha!  But I am looking forward to going to breakfast with my friend Eileen and then spending the afternoon stitching.

Have a great day!

Photo Saturday - I decided to enjoy the outdoors yesterday so I took a drive up to Grand Mesa.  It was a beautiful day and the wildflowers were awesome.

Maybe I'll try to get some stamping done today - we'll see :)

Have a terrific day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  This "sprinkles of life" is a fun set - lots of images to play with.

Think I might try to get a little stamping done today.   Now that I have the class projects done, I can do some fun stuff :)

Have a great day!

The card - and on the lighter side...... flip flops are from Papertrey, sentiment is from Deadbeat designs.  

Off to get a haircut this morning.  Then I need to get ready for class tonight.

Have a great day!

The card - butterfly is a die cut from SU.  The stamped 'grunge' in the background is also from SU.  The small flowers are punched out.  Colors are watermelon and smoky slate.

Hmmm....I'm not sure what I'm doing today.  I was concentrating so hard on getting class stuff done that I hadn't really made a plan for today.  Maybe I'll get some yard work done or work on some inside chores or go do some errands.  We'll see.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The background flowers are stamped in kraft, the flower is stamped with expresso and the leaves are stamped with meadow moss.  The leaves are cut out, the flower is punched out and popped up.

Class this morning and again tonight.  (good thing I finished those projects yesterday :)  I may just take a nap in between - didn't sleep well for some reason and a nap already sounds good!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The flower is stamped with black on red cardstock then punched out and popped up.  The leaves are stamped on green cardstock and cut out.  

Almost done with class projects - hopefully I can finish up today and get everything cut and bagged.  (that would be good since I have class tomorrow morning :)

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - a table runner I finished last week.

And now it's time to get back to work on those class projects.  I'm bound and determined to get them finished today.  

Have a wonderful day!
