Quickie Card Today...off to Sue Chaney tomorrow. :-)

I'm going to actually try to be good about mailing cards and thinking of others more than I have.  It's wonderful having time off to heal my foot.  I could learn to love this. 

Recipe Box

Just a great blank cardboard recipe box with added paper, ink, stamping and embellishments. 

Cards from a Weekend at Sara's...my card inspiration person.

This box is a Sara creation...it's gorgeous!!

These are a couple of cards, ok...most of the cards I did this

past weekend.  Sara, and other women that show up on her

weekends, are great inspiration.  I could use a MORE weekends

with this group!!  Again and again!!

 

Who Will Ripen First???

Whisper sure found her place for a sunny Fall day...so did some of the final tomatoes.  I love the feel of Fall though I don't like the fact that winter is just behind.  Soon I'll be having foot surgery and I'll be able to stay home and get caught up on FUN TIME!!  I might have to make Whisper move over! hehe

My Dream Car

Ok...NOT my car, nor my Camero jacket, BUT I do thank my buddy, Dave Beyer, for stopping over with his (my perfect dream car) ONE OF ONLY 5 convertable Cameros of this limited edition made...and only one in this great shade of gold metallic orange...way nicer in person.  Be still my heart! lol  This was my day's highlight!!  Thanks Dave! (as if he'll ever read this...hahaha)

Busy day...

Ok...I worked yesterday and over night...came home around 10am and found out the guy doing our kitchen flooring is able to come on MONDAY!!!  YIKES!!!  Holy gotta move stuff!!!  AND my computers were acting up...ugh...annoying to say the least.  After most of the day I finally got my desk top computer and printer working again...but not internet on my laptop now.  Sheesh.  That's for another day, I guess.  Then a friend stopped over with my dream car.  oooh baby it's really a dream...maybe I'll post a pic on here...hmmm...anyway, the company took me away from preparing for the kids group at church I work with tonight so that was a rush job.  Then home to plan for the library stamp camp...and here is the ONE card (for Dec) I managed to complete.  More to come.  whew...did I mention I work tomorrow...and Sunday...and Monday...and..............................................

Stamp Studio Fun Room!!

Well...now I say...LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!  Don't forget to come over and play now, B. :-)  Still need to rearrange drawers and containers but it's workable now.  YAY!!  Hugs to all!!

Cropping at Lake Ellen Retreat in Crystal Falls, MI 10/01/2011

Scrapbook Weekend Away

Ah, here I am up in da nort woods in upper Michigan.  It's a stamping/scrapping weekend away at a lovely camp on a great little lake.  Leaves are turning beautiful.  Sooo nice!  Wish I had all my A/S stuff so I could begin making my cards for the swaps I'm in.  It's going to be a stamp-a-thon when it arrives.  Get ready, B, for some fun!  SOON!  Well...back to designing some pages.  Perhaps I'll download some tomorrow.  We'll see, inso?  Hmmm, dis here nort woods is getting to me, or no?   :-)

A Work day...sort of. :-)

I am still at work...12 hr day but no complaints since the 911 calls were low today.  YAY for good health!  I hope to have my stamp room complete tomorrow and ready for play time!!  Get ready B!  I place an A/S order last night and now it's a waiting game again. ugh!  I'm so impatient when it comes to the fun stuff!  Soon I'll be posting some new card samples.  I may even begin to join some swaps etc...if anyone has any suggestions for the good ones. :-)  Petra? Claire?  B girl???

The Stamp Room Progress

Well, it's finally beginning to look like a place for lots of stamping and scrapbooking fun!!!  Can't wait.  Get ready to come over and play, B!  I've worked through the cold and I feel pretty good for the most part.  Still lots to do but I really do see the light!!

Thanks so much for this, Claire!!  It's just beautiful and Birdie told me you haven't been stamping all that long and this is just WOW work!  Your use of the markers is fantastic!  You have a gift!  You go, girl!  Again, THANKS!!!

Another Day...

Packers won...isn't that all that matters today? :-)

Saturday Night...in bed already...

Yep, I'm just chillin' in bed and letting this cold, or whatever, run it's course.  My mind is wishin' it was in the other room stamping or organizing.  Can't wait to feel better.  :-)

A/S Loving Memories Sympathy Card

Unfortunately THIS has to be the first A/S card I make. My friends lost their dad. I used Black Dot paper, Fern green paper, Grass ink, random ribbon.

A/S Birthday Card

I used A/S flowers(?) from Avian Notes and Happy Birthday from Sampler Three.  Shell and Bubblegum were my inks.  Random gems were applied. Pink Gingham paper.

Autumn Leaf #1

Not much stamping but my Big Shot got a workout! :-) I used an embossing folder and Big Shot for the background and the leaf was die cut and folder embossed too. I Versamarked the entire leaf and sprinkled different embossing powders and set for the final ta-da. The rest is pretty basic. Hope you like.( happy now, Birdie? hehe)

A Few Blasts From The Past Cards!
