Crazy Life!!

Hello again!

It has been very busy around here.  Seems as though I am never home anymore...and crafting????  What is that?

It has been forever.

The reason for that is that we are trying to sell our house & I have had to pack up the craft studio so that it is not distracting to a potential buyer!

I am missing it a lot! But I am keeping busy without it!

~sniff~

Well...since I have nothing really new...I will share something not so new! haha

This is a card that I made for my parents anniversary! I colored the image with Prisma pencils. One of my first attempts at it!

This is the card opened up. It is called the tri-fold card. If I had more time I would link it to some instructions.

Sorry!

Well...take care.

I sure hope this house gets sold so that I can unpack and craft again!!

Take care & thanks for popping in!

An Older Card...

Here is an older card that I made...not sure if I have ever shared it with you before.

These are among some of the first I ever made.

Not sure why...but I did crop this one in iPhoto but it came out like the original!!

It keeps doing that to me for some reason!

A thank you flower pot...my first of many.

This is one that I did a long time ago for my niece.

Well...that was a bit of "history"  haha

And....by the way...could someone out there please tell me if my blog background has changed. From my end it is grey with white polka dots instead of the old damask pattern I had. I tried to install a different one...but it wouldn't change the look. Strange!!

Thanks & have a warm weekend!

Hi again!

It is very busy times around here so I am sorry for the delay!

But I want to share something with you that happened way back in June!!

I entered a give away on Janes Journal.
There's a Bear in the woods..and the results of my giveaway

And I won a prize.

I have finally put the photo's on the computer!! And I cropped them all nicely...but

computers often do not listen so...  =(

This is a tea towel from Cath Kidston!

Very awesome towel! Thanks to Jane who send it all the way from the UK!

And I apologize for the delay in telling of my spoil!!

Take care!

Snow will be here soon!

I was just thinking...Winter will be here soon and I never posted my flowers!

This was early spring...we put a lot in this year and they all got huge!!

Too bad I didn't pull the camera out again to show how much they have grown!!

Have a great weekend & thanks for popping in!!

I am finally back!!

Well...I finally have some time to sit and do a post!!

There are a lot of things to share but...I will do my fave first!!

This is my nephews baby shower!

It was at my place...but my mom (aka:nana) did mostly all of it!

She is super talented!

The theme was...

"Sock Monkeys"

My mum did so much work.

The favors are in the little bags to the left. They are magnets that I made with sock 

monkeys.

These are the favors.

 Mum even did candy jars!

Here is the sock monkey 'diaper bike' that I made.

I loved doing this one because it is so different from my usual bikes!!

And the "man" of the hour???  He was pooped out! What a party!

Love this little guy!

He is my "lil Nacho"

=)

Hope to have more for you soon!

I have linked this post to 

one of my FAVES!!!

It's been a crazy long time!!!

Summer has taken me away!!

haha!!

I have been working on a home project that I will soon share with you all...

but the photos will not load so I will share something else with you.

I can not miss this opportunity to share when I am here already!!

So.....the home project will have to come at another time.

For now though....introducing....my new nephew!!!!

This is Knox.  My lil' nacho!  I love him so much! 

Isn't he super cute!

Here is a card that I made for  when he was born!

We are having a shower this weekend so I will have to post a few more photos soon.

Our theme is ...."SOCK MONKEYS"  One of my favorite!!

Well...I will have loads to share with you ASAP! So sorry for my absence!

Hope you keep popping in!

Have a great long weekend!

baaaaah!

Hi everyone!  Sorry it has been so long!  Summers are so busy!

But....

I have something that I think is super cute to share with you today!

It is a Thank EWE card for friends that had us over for a awesome supper!

I love the "wool"!!  hehehe

I did that by using liquid applique.  It is very cool stuff.

You put it on your project and then heat it up with the heat gun and POOF!!!  =)

Used some thick twine on the edge.

The little Thank EWE embellishment issomething I made by using 'shrinkadink' paper!  That is pretty neat stuff too!

Well...thanks for stopping in!

Put these in some challenges:
