Where does the time go?!


I need to keep my blog more current....especially when I have a few followers (thanks Sue, carddoodles, and Gail!) It's so much more fun when you have visitors to your blog! I've been stamping quite a bit this week but don't have the cards finished yet. I love to stamp and color and then I procrastinate about finishing up the cards.

I love these little monkeys; I think they make a great birthday card for either a man or a woman. It's always nice to have a few birthday cards made up. Kristen does a good job of keeping mine depleted ;-) Anyway, thanks for stopping bye. I love to hear from you.

This year's Easter card


After posting last year's card, I felt so guily that I hadn't made any for this year that I went downstairs and made one card. I'm definitely not going to have all the cards to send out that I usually do, but oh well. I'm also working on another card that I cased from Tori Wild's blog. I'll post a picture of it when it's finished. Enjoy your week and thanks for stopping by.

Will last year's card do?


I just haven't been able to get much stamping time in lately. It's looking like I might not get Easter cards made this year. I did find this card that I made last year at Easter time. I want to try out a few new stamps I have, so hopefully I'll drag myself downstairs sometime soon. My friend Gail is coming home Thursday so that usually motivates me to stamp when I have company ;-) It's nice here today and I am so looking forward to getting out to golf. We have the golf cart at home right now, but should have it in working order soon. Thanks for stopping by!

Las Vegas


No card to share today but thought I would post a picture from our Las Vegas trip. We were only gone from Saturday through Tuesday night, but I feel like I walked miles and miles. We had a great time! The last time John and I were in Vegas was probably 20 years ago; boy has it changed! In the picture with me is my daughter Kristen and her boyfriend, Brandon.

Seems like forever!



It really does seem like forever since I've blogged! Life gets in the way sometimes and it's been so hectic here. We are all taking turns with a bad cold at our house and I few awful right now, but hopefully it will clear up in a couple of days. We are getting ready for a trip to Las Vegas! Woo hoo! Can't wait. I'm sure I'm going to come back much richer. Ok - it's alright to dream, right?! ;-) One of the poodles had to go to the vet yesterday with a sore on her leg. Seems she caused it herself by licking her leg; a habit she has developed.

This card is one I did a long time ago but thought I'd add a little eye candy. If I don't post something, you all won't come visit my blog anymore and I'd hate that. I expect a daily entry on alot of the blogs I visit. I know...I don't ask for much.

Birthday fishes!



I just wiped out my whole post! I swear, if it can be done; I'll do it. How annoying :-( This is a card I made awhile back. Thank goodness I have some cards made up in reserve. My mojo has gone on a leave of absence and I need for it to return. I did work a little today on my St. Patrick's cards; they are coming along.
Thanks for visiting my blog!

Blog Candy

Be sure to visit http://paperintheworks.blogspot.com/. She's offering some great blog candy.

Get well wishes



Sympathy cards and get well cards are probably my least favorite to make. However, this card was simple and fun! Love all the images from this Hannah set. See the get well card on a previous post with the girl in bed; this is the same set. The images are so cute and fun to color ;-) I'm also enjoying making the small cards with the spellbinders dies. Can't wait to see the new ones. Leave me a comment....I get to feeling like I'm talking to myself.

Mojo Monday - Week 76


Can you believe it? Two posts in one day! This card is for Mojo Monday - Week 76. The image is from a Hannah Stamps set. The image is up on dimensionals. Click on the image for a close-up view. Thanks.

Dreary old Tuesday!


This is a card I came across in a drawer. I had alot of cards made up but haven't photographed them (pre blog days) I decided it would be nice to have a little stash that I can post when I don't have a new card ready to go, so I got busy with my camera ;-) I used microbeads on the footprints which really made the card. My stamping buddy is back in Arkansas so I don't get as much stamping in now. Darn!...Sure do miss her. Looks like a good TV night tonight with Idol and Biggest Loser and I guess there is more about the Bachelor. What did you think of last night's episode? wow....
