• i {heart} pumpkins

    It has been a busy time in our household.  My husband had surgery on his shoulder last Thursday and I don’t think I sat down until I went to work on Monday.  I’ve been his “right hand” and it has wore me out!  But I was still able to complete…

  • sneak peek…

    Here is just a little sneak peek at one of the cards I made over the weekend.  I had a super busy weekend and really haven’t recovered yet.  I was able to sneak in two cards this weekend, but I just haven’t had the time to really sit down and…

  • hey… you won Mojo!!!

    It has been awhile since I have posted.  Seems like work, broken dishwashers, demanding puppies and life are getting in the way of my card time!!!!  That is just wrong and I hope to do something about it soon. My friend and fellow awesome card blogger Jeanne won  Mojo Monday…

  • Where’s my mojo???

    Do you ever just lose your creative mojo? I lost it somewhere. I think it might be at Target. Wonder if they have it in the lost and found? Or maybe it is under the pile of mail in the kitchen. Hmmmm, wish I could find it. Well, it will…

  • A leafy Yoo Hoo!

    This was a definite challenge for me from CPS.  I don’t know why the angled center had given me such trouble, but once the idea came, I ran with it.  I also submitted it to the Hero Arts Blog challenge to distress.  The edges are inked to fulfill that requirement. …

  • Caardvarks Challenge – Trees

    Caardvarks’ current challenge requested a tree-themed card.  Trees have really peaked my interested lately but had not quite enter my stash.  Hmmmmm… guess a shopping trip is in order! Oh, I have lots of owls, lots of birds, a few branches here and there but I had no TREES!!!!  So…
