Jeff is on his annual golf trip this week so I am on kid taxi duty to and from school.  After that I will get a few chores done and then enjoy my afternoon with the Needle Keepers.

Have a great day!

The card - patterned paper, a little card stock, die cut flowers, a bit of bling and some twine.  Easy peasy!

Project Sunday - a finished project my friend Nancy brought to Needle Keepers a couple weeks ago.  This piece is amazing!

Back to the stamp room today.  I haven't accomplished as much as I wanted, but making a bit of progress.  Was hoping to do some yard work today, but it's still really wet from the last two days of rain.  Maybe later this afternoon.....

Have a wonderful day!

Saturday Quote........so true!

Back to the stamp room today.  Slow going yesterday, but I did get a few cards made.  But then I looked at the calendar and realized the next month is going to be rather busy.  So, I need to get my class stuff done asap.  Since it's a dreary, rainy day I think it's a good time to work on that!  

Have a great day!

A free day!  Hmmm.  The car is in the shop getting a new timing belt so I'm pretty much stuck at home today.  No excuses for not getting some stuff done!  Have to finish up a birthday gift and then maybe I can get some stamping done.

April 16, 2008 was my very first post on this blog.  I can't believe I've been doing this for 16 years today!!!    Wow!  I've posted over 4,000 cards and some other misc stuff.  Amazing!  I hope the card ideas are helpful, but I also use this as a sort of journal of my life.  I hope you don't mind the bits and pieces of my personal life.  (what there is of it 😂)  So, for now, there will be more to come!  

Chores this morning including baking a birthday cake.  We're celebrating a birthday for one of the Needle Keepers this afternoon.  Then it's on to card class tonight.  A full day!

Have a great day1
