Oh Wow...Has it really been that long since my last post? I swear I don't know where the time goes!
I've been quite busy making things for my stepsisters baby shower that was last weekend. Her theme was all about puppies. She's is a dog lover! I feel so bad for her though. She just lost her 3 yr. old Great Dane who was the love of her life. Long story but after 17 days the dog had surgery, survived the surgery but when she went to go see her after, she died before she got there. She is devastated. And she is 8 months pregnant. I hope she doesn't go into premature labor from all this! I'm working on a frame today to give her. I will post pictures when its done. So sad...
Onto my Julie Nutting stamp card. This is one of her paper doll stamps but it is smaller than the others. Great size for cards. I have so much fun making them with all their little details.
These are the puppies I made for the shower to put on the Thank you for coming gifts. I made 50 of them. They turned out really cute! I also made props for the photo booth but forgot to get pictures of those. I couldn't believe when she opened her presents, how much puppy themed baby stuff is out there! Plus so many new kinds of things they didn't have when my kids were born.
Have a great day and I will post pictures of the frame when I get it done.
Tootles!

Hello! Staying warm? The snow has been so pretty but I am ready for it to leave now..LOL! But its only February so I think we still have more to come....
This weekend I had my "grand kitty" here since she just got spayed and my daughter wouldn't be home. She's a cutie but I am glad she went home today. My cat spent the whole weekend hissing at me. The kitty was locked in a bedroom but I guess my cat could "smell" her on me and she was NOT happy! Plus my dogs camped outside the door whining to get in. Made me decide I will not be getting another cat in the near future. It upset the whole house!! I like my peace :)
This is a mini album I have been working on. It started out as a kit that I bought but I only did 1 page like the instructions said then I did my own thing. I doubled the pages since I had matching papers in my stash. Most of the Papers are from the London collection by Pink Paislee.. On the cover's right hand corner I am going to add some black lettering. Might put Memories but not sure yet. I really like how it turned out! Haven't decided if I will give it as a gift or keep it for myself.
Hope you have a wonderful day. Thanks for stopping.
Toodles!

Hello! Happy Thursday! It's cold here with a little bit of snow. I am so thankful to have a warm roof over my head! I LOVE this stamp! I've had it for awhile but just now used it. Its from Stampavie. I cut out an extra kitty and popped it up for a little dimension. Added some Wink of Stella clear glitter on her wings and clear glaze on the flowers. Hope your day is great whatever you do.
Toodles!

Howdy!
Finally finished this project! It looks better in person though. She wanted it in reds & blacks and lots of SPARKLE! The letter B is sparkly and the silver "curly Q's are real sparkly. There is also some white ribbon with sparkly silver edges. I found a cardboard fire truck sticker to use on it. They live in an apartment so it wont be hanging in the elements. I sure hope she likes it! I'm being too picky and just want to get it out of here so I quit fussing with it!
The temperature is much better around here. Still cold but not unbearable. I am sooo thankful that I was able to unfreeze the pipes. I know several peoples that froze and then exploded and they sure have quite a mess on there hands...
Have a great day!

Hello!
What a difference a day makes! Yesterday we had record cold temps (worst in 20 years!) I woke up to a cold house..furnace was working but couldn't keep up. The warmest it got in here was 60 degrees. Then I discovered our pipes were frozen. Got out the hairdryer and finally got that fixed. And my tire on my car has a big bubble so no car since Sunday. Fun,fun,fun!! But...I am thankful they were (are) all curable problems! And I am thankful I HAVE a house and running water and all the stuff we take for granted. I cant imagine being homeless or in such dire straits to not have money to pay the utilities. Sad to think about.
Worked a little yesterday on some valentines cards. Have 2 more started but didn't finish them. Heading down there today to craft. Have a little space heater to keep my tootsies warm so all is good!
Hope wherever you are, you are warm.
Happy Crafting!

Hello! Quick card for you today. This cute little dog is a dollar stamp from Michaels. He reminds me of my little dog. She has a mind of her own and sometimes I can just picture her doing this when I call her! We are expecting terrible low temps today. Supposed to be the worst in two decades. I've been grocery shopping, have gas in my car and plan to stay home! I Should clean but I'm going to craft instead! Cleaning will wait until tomorrow....
Stay warm & Happy crafting!
