The card - just some pretty patterned paper, a die cut sentiment piece, some ribbon and a bit of bling.  So easy!  (I'm making an effort to try and use up some of the over abundance of patterned paper I have piling up!)

It's a 'Grandma day' with Ethan, but a short one today.  No school for Hudson and Jeff & Sara both have the day off work.  But Ethan and I have Kindermusik so we're going to that and then their family is going sledding.  It will give me a chance to get my class stuff ready for tomorrow night!  All is good!

Have a wonderful day! 

Project Sunday -   another wooly sample finished for my friend Laura.

Looking forward to an entire day of stamping with my friend Karen.  I got totally sidetracked yesterday and didn't get any stamping done.  But I couldn't turn down an invitation from Hudson to come to his house and 'play'.  Then for some reason I decided I needed to clean and organize the filing cabinets of paper.  Still not finished with that, but I'm making progress.  I will have to get the mess cleaned up before Karen gets here so we have a place to stamp!  I'll have to shove it to the side and finish that job this coming week!

Have a wonderful day!

Saturday Quote.......I was temped when I was at the store yesterday, but I resisted!   (so proud of myself - lol)

I picked up new stuff from my Stampin Up demonstrator friend yesterday so guess where I'll be today!  Planning on spending the day playing in the stamp room!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - just some pretty paper with a die cut sentiment label and some ribbon.  Easy peasy!

Guess I'll have to brave the cold today and do a couple of errands.  I'm ready for spring :)

Have a wonderful day!

The card - background pieces are embossed.  The leaves in the background are stamped before the piece is embossed.  I stamped an extra set of leaves and cut some of them out and popped them up.  The flowers were stamped, punched out and popped up.

 Snowed in.  Well, not literally, but the roads are a mess so I have no plans to go anywhere today.  I'll just spend some time in the stamp room!  Yesterday I had a pleasant surprise - school was cancelled because of the snow so I ended up with some extra 'Grandma time' with Hudson.  We had a great day, baking cookies, doing art projects and just hanging out!  So glad I can have those unexpected days!    

Have a great day!  Stay warm!  

The card - top part of background is a background die cut.  Bottom of background is patterned paper.  Flowers and leaves are hand cut from patterned paper.  Add some ribbon and a sentiment.  So easy!  

Looks like I'm going to need to shovel snow at some point today.  Or maybe it will melt before I get to it :)  However, at this point it's still snowing so I think I'll just go spend some time in the stamp room!  

Have a wonderful day!

The card - background is embossed.  Smaller panel has patterned paper added to each side.  Hearts are punched our of patterned paper.  Small hearts are stamped.  Banner is stamped, die cut and popped up.

A few chores this morning and then a relaxing afternoon with the Needle Keepers.  Sounds good to me!

Have a wonderful day!

Happy Valentine's Day!

'Grandma time' with Ethan today.  That's all.

Have a great day! 

Project Sunday - we have such a talented group of ladies in our Needle Keepers group.  Almost everyone had a finished project to show this last week (except for me :)  I should have taken a picture of everyone's projects, but I got totally side-tracked.  But, this is Nancy's finished sheep with her seasonal blanket.  (there will be a blanket for each season!!)  So cool!

Not much happening today.  Being pretty lazy this week!  

Have a great day!

The card - background is embossed.  Strip down center is patterned paper.  Leaves are stamped directly on the smaller panel.  Flowers are stamped on a separate piece, punched out and popped up.

I managed to get a bit of stamping done yesterday.  Hopefully I can get a bit more done today in between doing the laundry.   

Have a wonderful day!

The card - background is die cut and added to the top of a piece of patterned paper/  Flowers are hand cut from patterned paper.  Add a sentiment and some ribbon.  Easy Peasy!

I have no idea what I'm doing today.  There are cupboards that need to be cleaned out and organized but I don't seem to be too enthused about that project.  Hmmmm.....maybe some stitching, knitting or stamping.  Or maybe a little of all three!  There's possibilities galore!

Have a wonderful day!

Saturday Quote.......the story of my life LOL

Doesn't feel like I've accomplished much all week!   No sense in starting today!  :)  I do have a short list of odds and ends I'd like to get done today.   Maybe I'll start with that :)

Have a terrific day!  

The card -   Background is patterned paper with a stamped sentiment and some ribbon. How easy is that!  (I'm trying to use up some of this paper that has accumulated in my drawer!! And there is a lot of it!)

Another day with no plans.  The boys did happen to pass along some germs (I thought it was just a one day sort of deal, but it has been with me all week! )   Sort of tired of feeling tired!  I had to cancel breakfast with a friend this morning to protect her because she's having surgery next week.  Certainly did not want to expose her to germs!  It will go away soon I hope, just not feeling very energetic.  I'm thinking stamping might be a good thing today! 

Have a wonderful day!    

The card - the background is patterned paper.  The two hearts in the back are stamped directly on the patterned paper.  The rest of the hearts are stamped, punched out and popped up.  The sentiment is stamped directly on the large red heart.

My plan today is to get the garage straightened up.  It tends to get piled with empty boxes, etc. and when I'm in a hurry I just kind of toss things out there.  I barely have a path to the car, so I think it's time to do a bit of cleaning up.  We'll see if it gets warm enough to venture out there today!  If not,  I'll try to get some stamping done.

Have a great day!  

The card - background is a die cut.  Smaller panels are both die cut.  Flowers are hand cut from patterned paper.  Sentiment is stamped on small panel.  So easy!

No big plans today.  Not sure that is a good thing.  No idea what I'm doing.  But,  I'm sure I can find something that needs to be done :)  If not, I'll just take an r & r day!   

Have a wonderful day!
