The card - my favorite card from August (I think it's the colors on this one :)

Catch up time - our friend Sherry is coming for a visit this weekend and we're going to be celebrating Christmas and Deb & Emily's birthdays.  Guess who hasn't finished gifts?  Yep, I'm way behind.  Need to work on that today - I'm running out of time.  Have to get ready for class tonight too.

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - the October mat from Black Sheep - I only have 2 more left to do - yay!

Chores to do today - trying to get a door painted to hang up for the spare room.

Movie review - went to see 'Hidden Figures' yesterday - great movie!  For local people - if you haven't been to the new theater you need to go - the recliner chairs are awesome!

Have a great day!

The card - a pretty flower one from April....I do love these flowers from Altenew....I think I need to get these back out and do some more!

Tonight is our Shoebox Club and we're celebrating a couple of birthdays tonight....so, I don't have to worry about cards, but I do need to get my house in order and cook dinner!  It will be a fun evening!

Have a great day!

The card - one of my favorites from March  (I did a lot of flower cards that I really liked in March :)

Lots of chores I want to get done today.  I can't believe the Christmas stuff is still scattered all over the garage.  I'm hoping I can brave the cold out there and finally get it all put away!

Have a terrific day!

The card - I always like black and white with a bit of color.  This is my favorite card from February.

Wow - it's a mess outside.  I'm glad we postponed  this morning's class.  No sense in driving if you don't have to.  There's not much traffic, but what cars go by I can hear the ice crunching under their tires.  Yuk!  Stay safe people!

I'm hoping to get caught up on a few things since I'm not leaving the house and I have some unexpected free time today.

Have a great day!

The card - a couple years ago I posted some of my favorite cards that I had done throughout the year.  Since I haven't had time to get much stamping done, that's what I'm going to do for the next few days.  This card was one of my favorites from January.  I copied it from a calendar topper that my friend Judy S did.

"Grandma time' today.  I'm hoping I can get some class stuff ready, if not during the day at least this evening.

Have a great day!

Project Sunday - the last one of this set of 'Block of the Month'.  We started a new one this month which is really fun!

Off to breakfast (after shoveling some snow again!) and then it's on to Black Sheep Sunday for an afternoon of stitching.  Yay!

Have a wonderful day!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - sorry, couldn't find a name on this one so I don't know who made it....   This should be the last of the cards from my friend Emily's swap.  All of these cards the last two weeks have been from Stampin Up demonstrators, so all the products used are from Stampin Up!

More snow...yuk!  And it's only 4 degrees out there - even more yuk!  But I need to go out and shovel before Hudson gets here so.....

Looking forward to 'Grandma time' today and then Friday night crafting!   (both nice, warm indoor things!)

Have a great day!

Shoveling snow was NOT on my list of thing to do today.  But, it looks like that's what I'll be doing sometime soon - although it's still snowing, so I guess it will wait for a while.

Looking forward to an afternoon of stitching at our Wool Gatherer's group this afternoon.

Have a terrific day!

Card is by Audra Moncur

Why is it that I always think I'm going to accomplish more than I actually end up doing?  Just life, I guess.  Still tons of things to get done this week, so back to work.

Have a great day!

The card  is by Cathy Miller

The Christmas card/letter (well, ok, it's now a New Year's card/letter) is done and ready for the mail.  Now it's on to some other projects that should have been done before now.  I think I better start with getting some stamping done :)

Have a great day!

I hope everyone had a great holiday.  I couldn't have asked for a better one - 2017 is off to a terrific start!  But, now it's back to daily life and I have a lot I want to get done this week.  But, today is a 'Grandma day' so I will just enjoy the time with Hudson and hopefully make a plan for getting things done the rest of the week!

Have a terrific day!
