The card - just some scribble circles from Papertrey Ink , an added sentiment (also from Papertrey) and some bling.  Super easy!

Not sure where to start today.  I have a pretty uncommitted week coming up - I don't always do so well when I don't make plans.  Maybe I should figure out what I want to accomplish this week - yep, that would probably be a good idea :)

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - one last pillow cover to complete the seasons.

Ah, I did actually do some scrapbooking yesterday.  Now I'm rather excited to continue - there's lots I want to do, I just sort of lost my momentum somewhere along the way.

Have a great day!

Photo Saturday - San Diego California

Have some friends coming to scrapbook this afternoon - what?  Scrapbook?  Gosh, I haven't done that in so long.  Not sure if I'm going to try and scrapbook something, or find something else to work on.  Hmmmm... we'll see what happens :)

Have a wonderful day

The card - flowers at the bottom of the small panel are from SU.  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

It was a beautiful day yesterday and I got totally sidetracked from my original intention of doing some cleaning - just needed to spend some time outside, so I did a bit of yard clean-up stuff.  Maybe I can get back to the cleaning today.......   Looking forward to Friday night crafting tonight!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - a little more 'grunge' in the background with an added butterfly that was stamped, colored, and punched out.  (from SU)  The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

My goal today is get some cleaning done....hmmm....it sounded like a good idea last night - not too excited about it this morning.  We'll see if I can get myself motivated after a little more caffeine.

Have a great day!

The card - a simple black and white with a touch of color on the flowers.  The flowers are stamped with black and colored with copics.

Looking forward to an afternoon of stitching - a new block-of-the-month work day!  Yay!

Have a great day!

The card - background images are from SU - I love this new 'grunge' set!  Sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

Lots of cleaning up to do today - not sure how I can make such a big mess when I stamp, but I do.  But I have to say it I've had a couple of productive days so that is a good thing.  But I have to get ready for class tonight so it's time to clean it up!

Have a great day!

The card - I love the look of kraft and black.  Dug out an older SU stamp for this one.  

Not sure what I'm doing today - probably should try and get some more stamping done before I have to clean up the mess I've already made.  We'll see......I don't seem to be very motivated yet this morning :)

Have a great day!

Project Sunday -  the 'summer' pillow cover

Off to breakfast at my cousin's this morning and then.......not sure what I'm doing today.  I may try to get some stuff cleaned up in the yard if it's nice.

Have a terrific day!

Photo Saturday - Seal Beach, California

On the mend and feeling much better.  I'm going to try and get some stamping done today.

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The background on this one is all done with SU's new grunge set.  Added a sentiment and some twine.

Think I'm on the mend now.  The rash seems to be better today - not as red and not quite as itchy.  The Dr. thinks I had a reaction to the dye they used for the CT Scan in the hospital.  So I have to make sure if I ever have another one to tell them I'm allergic!  Looking forward to a nice, calm evening of Friday night stitching!!!

Have a terrific day!

The card - some printed paper for the background with a panel and flagged piece on top.  The flower is from SU, the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

Back to the Dr today.  The swelling has gone down but the rash is much worse.  Good grief!  I hope they can figure this out - it's starting to itch and it's driving me nuts!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are all from SU.  I stamped the flowers on the background in the same color as the card stock.  I used the same color on the flower on the banner.  The stamp actually has three steps for this flower but I only used the outline one for this card.  

Going to try and get a bit of housework done today - the laundry has piled up and the kitchen needs a bit of work.  The Dr gave me a prescription for the rash and swelling yesterday, said it could be a couple of things and we'd just have to wait and see.  Hopefully this first go around works :)

Have a wonderful day!

The card - just a simple flower stamp (from Inkadinkado, I think) with some punched butterflies and some added ribbon.

Sorry I've been missing for a few days.  Ended up in the hospital on Friday night with what turned out to be a small bowel obstruction.  Very painful!  But, I was lucky that it was taken care of without tubes or surgery - yay!  I came home yesterday, feel fine, except I'm a little tired - AND something they gave me in the hospital caused some kind of an allergic reaction and now my face is all swollen.  Have to call the Dr today.  Geez, what a mess I am :) Hopefully we can get the swollen thing taken care of and I will be back to normal soon!

Have a great day!

The card - just a little grunge in the background and some punched hearts - pretty darn easy.

Another baby shower this afternoon and then Friday night crafting to enjoy.

Have a terrific day!

The card - more grunge from SU.

Our Shoebox Club is tonight - that means I need to figure out a project today.  And I probably should make a trip to the grocery store sometime soon!

Have a great day!

The card - another super easy one.  Just some patterned paper and some punched hearts.  

Nothing too exciting happening today.  I do have a few chores I should take care of and I need to get ready for class tonight, but that's about it.

Have a great day!

Tuesday, February 9, 2016



The card - a little of this and a little of that.  The hearts are all punched, the strips are all washi tape.  The stamped circles are from Papertrey.

Have to get ready for class this morning.  Not sure what's on my agenda for the afternoon - plenty to do, just not sure where to start.

Have a great day!

Monday, February 8, 2016



The card - a super easy one.  Letters are die cut, heart is punched and background is embossed.  Pretty darn easy!

How about those Broncos!  What a great game!  Super Bowl Champs - yay!  But now it's time for me to get to work.  I still need to finish the class projects so that is my priority today!

Have a wonderful day!
