Snowman, Winter

cold outsidewe continue to have cold weather but we are up to 14 so that is 30 degrees warmer!  Makes a big difference!  I can actually run to the shop without a coat when it is 14 not so much when it is -15!

Feel for all my friends in Atlanta who are getting the snow/sleet stuff again!  But it makes for a great stamping day since school/work closed???!! Right!

I was busy designing new stamps last night.  Well actually, I was looking at all the things Karissa has sent me and wanted to get some of the images into rubber!  Can’t wait for them.  My house is a wreck though I’m going to need to take a day to clean it.  Hate that. And maybe clean some clothes along the way 🙂

My sister and family are coming for supper tonight so I’d better get to cooking!  I have a recipe for The Cheesecake Factory’s chicken costalotta and it is sooooo good!  Tastes just like at the restaurant ! I’m either a really good cook or it just tastes so good to be home and making home cooked meals.  It’s probably just good to be eating home cooked food 🙂

It’s Hump day!  We are half way through the week! Have a good one.

Valentine's Day

love on valentinesjust a quick post this morning…

We arrived home yesterday after two very long days of travel.  Got ahead of most of the snow but had about a hour and half of snow  Sunday night.  Of course it was dark and that makes it worse but we had no mishaps!

Got home in time to get some groceries and the dog and then we crashed.  Up early this morning to get our special orders out today and it all begins again….make more stamps 🙂

It is very cold this morning -15; the dog has decided the best place to be is in front of the space heater!  I agree but since I don’t have the life of a dog it’s back to work! Have a good Tuesday!

Valentine's Day

love youanother simple valentine’s day card leading up to Valentine’s Day!  I sponged the hearts with ink after using a square punch to punch out of paper.  Stamps Used:  A186 Solid Heart; A188 Stitched Heart; F185 Love you

We had a nice relaxing afternoon yesterday.  After taking care of things in the morning we drove down to Ron and Sarah (from The Paper Cut, Inc.) hotel about 12 miles south of ours.  It was nice to drive along the beach and see all the cool houses and hotels.  We ate supper at Brown Boxer a local bar and grill.  We then went to a few shops.  I like to collect cookie cutters and so I got two, a football and football helmet!  We then went to the beach and just hung out on it.  This morning we got up around 7 had a nice leisure breakfast and then went for a walk.  We will work for a little while now and then head back out to the beach.  Here is the hotel we are staying at…got a super great rate because I booked so long ago.

Valentine's Day

valentine XOa simple valentine’s day card this morning…The circle is actually punched out and the top layer is  3D popped out!  I feel really bad because during the show in GA someone asked me where this XO stamp was and and went to show them and someone else asked me something and I forgot the XO person and then I couldn’t find her 😦 hate when that happens!  So I apologize to anyone I didn’t get a chance to help.

Stamps Used:  B244 KB’s XO; B186 Happy Valentine’s Day Rad

We are in Clearwater, FL waiting for the show this weekend.  The weather has been odd; We had crazy FOG last night.  You could barely see a few feet in front of your face.  But it was warm so I’m not complaining.  We hope to go out and loaf on the beach this afternoon.  Kevin took the truck in for routine maintenance.  I’ve been working on the website and orders and soon we’ll relax!

Valentine's Day

valentine flowerwe are sending love to everyone here in Lawrenceville,  GA.

 A GREAT big THANK YOU to Jaimie for helping me with Make n  Takes.  Couldn’t have done it without her!

We are off bright and early this morning!  Kevin asked one of my favorite customers (I’m really bad with names!) about the Atlanta commute and he decided we better get out of the city before breakfast so we are off!

I’m so sorry Jackie about your Denver Bronco loss!  🙂

We had a awesome time here!  We thank you.  Also my students in both of my classes were terrific. A special Thank You to Cathy for my socks and treats!  You guys really make being on the road fun!  Kevin and I are truly home bodies but I would really miss all of you guys if we didn’t go on the road!  Have a great Monday!
