One more day of 'Grandma time'.  A pretty normanl day though.  I have so enjoyed all this time with Hudson, but it will be good to have a few days this week to get some other stuff done :)

Have a great day!

Chores to get done this morning and then Hudson will be here to spend the night.  So, I need to get busy - so far this morning I've been just kind of  totally lazy!)

The card - stamped images are from SU.  The strips at the top and bottom of the panel are patterned paper.

Another day of 'Grandma time'.  Yesterday at the Pumpkin Patch was great fun!!!  Today we're going to breakfast (or lunch) and out to Canyon View Park.  Can't waste all this beautiful weather!

Have a terrific day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  I stamped the image on the card front first and then just tried to line it up somewhat the same on the square.  

More 'Grandma time' today.  We're headed for the pumpkin patch and lunch with Hudson's other Grandma - it's going to be a fun day!

Have a great day!

Have a wonderful day.

The card - flowers are from SU.  I used a piece of  wood-grain patterned paper for the background and stamped directly on that.

More'Grandma time' this week.  I do have to say I worked really hard all weekend and got a lot of things on my 'to do list' done! - Yay!  There's still some stuff left to do, but there's always next week!

Have a wonderful day!

Whew....having Hudson for an entire week has been awesome, but I haven't gotten much done.  But, that's ok.  I have a whole list and today and tomorrow to get everything done.  I guess I better get busy!

Have a terrific day!

The card - and yet another Christmas card.  The stamped images on this one are from SU.  I added a little patterned paper and some twine.

More 'Grandma time' today.  I think we're going to the library for story time today. 

Have a wonderful day!

The card - one more Christmas card.  This is done with a set from Hero Arts.  This set is going to be fun to play with.  

'Grandma time' today.  We're meeting a friend for lunch so that will take up part of our day.  I didn't get any stamping done last night, so hoping I can do that tonight!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from W Plus 9.  It's a bit early for me to do Christmas, but I this is all I have done!  It's time to get some stamping done!  I do love this wreath set and you will be seeing lots more of it!

More 'Grandma time' today.  In fact there will be lots of Grandma time for the next two weeks - the baby sitter is on vacation.  Today we're meeting a friend for breakfast.  And hopefully, tonight  I will have some energy left to get some stamping done!!!

Have a terrific day!

The card - my favorite background (Tim Holtz brick), some scrunched up punched leaves, a sentiment and a bit of bling.

I actually got some chores done over the weekend and was able to mark a couple of things off my list - not as many as I would've liked, but at this point any is better than none!  Today is 'Grandma time', so no chores today.  Dinner out tonight with a friend.  It's going to be a good day!

Have a great day!

The card - some more of that yummy paper with the gold foil.  It made a nice background for a gold leaf and a matching color of cardstock leaf.

'Grandma time' today.....Friday night crafting tonight.  Another fun day!

Have a great day!

The card - love this background - I embossed the panel and then took the white ink pad and just lightly wiped it across the panel to add some white to the raised image.  Added a scrunched up, sponged leaf and a bit of twine.

Meeting a new friend for coffee (well, iced tea for me) this morning and then I need to figure out a calendar topper before tonight's Shoebox Club. 

Have a great day!

The card - and more leaves!  (scrunched up and sponged)  I embossed the background in one big piece and then cut it into the strips.  I kind of wish I had popped them up on the front - it would have given them a bit more dimension.

I had an extra day of 'Grandma time' yesterday - the babysitter was sick.  Now I'm a little behind in my plan for the week - but oh, who cares.  Now today I'm off to Montrose to get started in a knitting class.  Another last minute thing, but I'm looking forward to it! 

Have a terrific day!

The card - I love this paper with the gold foil dots...yummy!  A simple card just using another scrunched up, sponged leaf.  

'Grandma time' today.  Going to the Craft Studio this evening to spend a couple hours knitting.  Haven't been in quite a while, so it will be nice to see everyone.

Have a great day!

The card - some new flowers I picked up at a local shop.  (Seasons to Follow).  I sponged the opposite corners of the small panel before stamping the flowers.

'Grandma time' today.  That's it.
