Christmas Cards

Here is an awesome Christmas card using the three circle die by Die-namics.  I think it’s a cool die but it has limitations.  I wanted a die that just cut three circles but this one cuts a frame around the three circles and then rounds the edges.  I would rather have one that just does the three circles because I can frame it and round the corners.  Then I can frame it however I would like 🙂  Our goal for 2014 is to introduce our own dies.  You’ll see a die with just three circles since it would be so useful!  I like when you can use things for more than just one way.  This particular die really has its limitations but I do like it.

snowso this is what we woke up to this morning out our bedroom window!  Snow!  How pretty!  I told you I would show you the fabric I stood in line so long for….

fabricit really was perfect!  the fabric is all washed and cut and I have about 15 squares sewn,  just 90 or so to go!  well I’d better get to work on that paperwork.  the desk is clear but all the balancing starts and the final paperwork for the accountant.  ugh.  my goal is to have it done by Friday 🙂 we’ll see how far I get.

 

 

Wednesday Madness!

Christmas Cards

joyful

joyful insideSo it is hump day of a week of madness!  Having a terrible time with my madness back pain.  The bright side of things is that when I lay down the pain goes away.  So I work a little, lay a little, work a little, lay a little!  Onward rejoicing we go!  House cleaning day today and then on to pie making.  No kids for thanksgiving this year.  I think this is a first for us.  I guess we raise them to go on to their own lives not to live with us for ever!  Have a great day!
