Thank You Cards Batch 1

Hi everyone!

Here is the first batch of thank you cards I needed to make & while I was at it I decided to make a few more to put into my stash so that I would have some already made, you never know when you'll need them. I think I need to do that with every category...so note to self make extra cards for every occasion to put into my card box. Do you have a stash already made or do you create as you need something?

This was another card I saw on Dawn's blog, I just used a different stamp set.

Well gotta go, have a great day!

Here Kitty, Kitty!

Good morning peeps!

Did you like my title, did it catch your attention & wonder what the heck I was talking about? Well, I saw this cute little jar (it was for a dog) on Jody Morrow's blog, she is a design team crafter for MFT & I just had to make one for Jessica's kitty Millie, so I ordered the cork sheets & stamps & waited patiently for it to arrive & when it did I got started right away. I'm so thrilled on how it came out...after I took the pictures of my project I had to go get some treats to put in the jar for Millie. When Jessica came over the other day I gave it to her & she loved it. She said that Millie loved her treats & when she shakes the jar Millie comes running for her treat...awe isn't that cute! Hope you liked today's treat, hehehe!!!

I think I'm finally going to start on my windows & cleaning today so see ya tomorrow. Have a great day everybody.

Anniversary & Thank You cards

Hello peeps!

I have to make this quick, we're having a thunder storm...I waited too long to post today, sorry.

Here is a card I made for Dan for our 38th Wedding anniversary which was Saturday the May 29th. It doesn't even seem that long, I feel so fortunate to have met the man of my dreams, he is my rock. Really, he takes great care of me & is a fantastic husband, father & family man. I could not have gotten through some of life's rough spots without him. I love you so much sweetie! Here's to another 38 years!!!

While I was making this card I decided to make another one as a Thank you card. I saw this card (Love it) & copied it from Dawn's blog. Thanks Dawn for always sharing with us.

Gotta go, thanks for stopping by today!

Happy Mail

Good mornin' to ya peeps!

First of all let me give thanks to all the service men and women who put their lives on the line every day for us so that we can enjoy the freedom of this great country of ours. I also thank all the families for their great sacrifices not just in modern day wars but of wars past as well. Thank you all so much, your are greatly appreciated, you are my Heroes.

Sorry I've been away for so long, my mojo took a vacation from blogging as well as crafting but I'm back. I had some cards to make & I also need to start a few projects for some gifts so I will be back to posting this week.

The summer has officially started & the weather has been gorgeous so we will be taking some day trips here & there all summer, so posting may not be every day. Dan & I went to P Town (Provincetown for you non Cape Coders)Thursday & enjoyed the day walking around & visiting the shops, its been many years since we've visited & it's still the same with a few modern changes. It looks like they are renovating a few of the old buildings which is very nice...I love old buildings and their amazing architecture don't you! We had some delicious fried clams at a place called Arnolds...boy were they good!!!

Here are some pictures of the blog candy I won awhile back & just got around to putting on my blog (sorry) I can't wait to play with these goodies. I will have some cards & projects to share with you this week so stay tuned. Have a great day & thanks for stopping by.


I won these amazing Anime stamps from InStyle stamps their "A Day in the Life" collection & let me tell you these stamps are so beautiful, I can't wait to play with them.



Sheer Shimmer Mist by Tsukineko in Gold, Pewter and Sparkle. I won this on Sally's blog, she's an amazing crafter...go take a look for yourself. Thanks Sally, I love it. I used the Sparkle on a few cards I made this weekend & oh my it's stunning!

Birthday RAK'S

Hi everyone!

Sorry I haven't been around for awhile, I've been busy & lazy since I got back from Vegas. My son & daughter-in-law moved into their house the weekend I got back & we took a day to help them & then Jessica had a Pampered Chef party & then on Monday I had to go shopping with Jess, then I was too pooped to pop. My craft room needs a major cleaning & I really didn't feel up to it but I have to do it. That room is a complete mess...way too much stuff on the tables & I need to get organized. Before I left for vacation I bought a few of those cubes from Michael's with drawers & shelves so I will be doing that & my Spring cleaning starting this week. I hope to have a project or cards to post on my blog soon.

I wanted to share my birthday RAK's with you that I received from some awesome friends. Take a peek at their blogs to see how very talented these women are & you will be amazed & maybe get some ideas while your visiting. Thank you all so much.

I hope you all have a fantastic Mother's Day! Thanks for stopping by today.

You did way too much girl but I loved it all & the best part was meeting you, your sister Cheryl & BIL & I will cherish the memories forever...that was the best gift of all! Thanks again my friend!
