Good Evening! I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. We had an awesome few days with family and friends. Didn’t get much work done but many memories were made.
Loving the Fall Colors
My sister made place cards for all of us!
Before all the food and fun!
We continue to have really warm weather. I think it was between 40 degree and 50 degree weather which is t-shirt and shorts weather here in Wisconsin- although you southerners might think that was winter coat weather!
I got a couple of new Cutting Dies on the Michael’s website during the Black Friday week that I had to try out.
Good Evening! Looking forward to the weekend! Wanted to share this fall card. I think I was made for fall. One of my favorite times of the year ! I love the colors of fall. The trees are so beautiful in Wisconsin. I hope you are all blooming where you have been planted!
We’ve been pretty quiet on the blog lately. Just a lot going on. I was diagnosed with a nerve sheath tumor on my wrist which are really rare and we’ve been gardening! I did have the tumor removed and it was benign which we knew going in to surgery but was glad to get it confirmed. I have two numb fingers as a result of surgery but I’m hopeful that the feeling will come back. It doesn’t stop the stamping! I love fall colors. I hope this finds you all healthy and happy!
Summer has arrived here in WI! In the form of hot and muggy but I’m not complaining. However, I did turn on the air conditioner! Lovely sweet card today using my four square Cutting Die!
I made this sweet card yesterday for a friend of mine and even already mailed it. One of the best things about being off the road…is all the cards I make actually go to people to enjoy instead of winding up in the booth!
Hello! I purchased a Tim Holtz cutting die set at Hobby Lobby over the weekend and so I made a few cards. This Cutting Die reminds me of a coffee stain so I made a coffee card. What a fun card!
Good Evening! A quick card tonight using some of the pieces of paper on my desk. Sometimes you ended up with all these pieces while you are creating. I wasn’t quite sure what to do with this yellow paper but thought the card was fun.
Good day! I needed a card to send a friend that I was thinking of them and so the new layout made it a quick card. Enjoy the weekend- hopefully you get some stamping in!
Good Morning! We have a very cold morning here in Wisconsin. Many of you may know that we left the road, not because of Covid, but because my knees where bad. So on Dec 14, 2021 I had bilateral knee replacement! Yep I did both at the same time. It’s been a long recovery road but I’m getting there. That is one tough surgery! I had a friend who helped me a bit because I was having trouble sleeping and so I needed a card for her. Today’s card is a couple variations that I came up with.
It’s really takes a huge group of people to get someone through knee surgery. My kids were here for days helping us. We could not have done it without them. In the middle of recovery Kevin got Covid so that added a bit of a challenge. So glad those days are behind us and now just lots of physical therapy and hopefully some stamping!
Happy Thursday! I love my copic markers and using them mostly on dull glossy paper but you have to use dark markers unlike white card stock that usually likes lighter markers better. I have charts with the colors to help me match to paper.
Sorry the picture is not very good but these charts really help me with my color selection
