Yes, this is the “official” graduation week, but now it is all over! My neice graduated from a local school last night, a very LARGE local school, so we were very late getting home. I usually work on the blog late at night before I go to bed, but I was too tired last night! I am thankful for the last day of school (yesterday) and all the graduations are over! Summer is officially…
Good morning! Yesterday was Lindsey’s Middle School graduation. She is now an “official” high school student! I am feeling a bit older today, now that I have TWO high school kids! This card was made for Lindsey and I am making a few more (in the appropriate school colors) for my neice and some other friends. I used some chipboard stars, colored them with White Craft Ink, and added the rhinestone brads for a feminine…
As promised……..here are the projects from last night! We had a blast, as usual, and had a delicious dessert called an Apple Nut Ring. Thanks Sherry!!!! Project #1 was a miniature Composition Book embellished with a chipboard flower. We inked the flower with Old Olive Craft Ink and embossed it with Clear Embossing Powder. The paper is from Summer Picnic in the Mini Catalog. The photo makes the flower look very dark, but in real…
Good morning! Sorry I didn’t post yesterday…….I took the day off! Just from blogging…….I did not take the day off from laundry, taxi service, or chef — just to name a few of my daily tasks! 🙂 I also mananged to find a little time for some scrapbooking this afternoon with my girlfriend Tisha (listening to Josh Groban and Ryan Dan while we worked). Could it get any better??? Then tonight I decided to finish…
I hope you had a very Happy Mother’s Day!!! We had a very nice day — went out to lunch with all of Charles’ family after church and then came home for a fairly calm afternoon. I ended up taking the girls shopping this afternoon for some new shorts — the weather is getting hotter and hotter around here, so they thought they needed some new clothes! Great excuse to get out and shop, huh??? …
Good morning! I am feeling a little under the weather — cold, allergy, sinus, something! YUCK is the best way to describe it! I am bummed because Charles and I are leaving town tomorrow for 6 days and I really do not want to feel sick! Let’s hope it is just allergies! I feel like that commercial where the head grows and grows and grows — are you familiar with that one??? So, I…
It’s May! Remember when it was January and May sounded SO FAR OFF??? I am not sure where all the days went. I am really not sure that they all had 24 hours in them! Seriously, the clocks seem to be moving faster and faster these days! But, new things happen when a new month starts…….so here is the NEW Stampin’ Up! promotion. It is all about CHIPBOARD!!! I am thrilled with this promotion,…
Welcome to my blog! I love sharing my creative projects with others! I enjoy stamping hand-made cards, quilt-making, sewing anything and everything, traveling, and drinking coffee. We stay busy with 3 grown children and an active 9 year old.....my creative time is my "therapy" and I'm constantly planning my next project.
