Yes, Virginia I'm still here...

Hello to those of you who haven't given up on me. I'm still here but haven't felt the stamping love in a quite a while. Frankly most of this year has been a crap sandwich and most of what I have to say isn't very nice. So, since you don't visit my blog to hear my tales of woe I will share a card I made a while ago. I think she's cute and very Campbell's Soup looking. This style of images always remind me of my Mom who I miss terribly.

I hope you are all taking time to enjoy the Holidays, HUG your kids and remember what's important. Here's hoping 2013 brings great things!! Merry Christmas blogging friends. Thanks for hanging in there with me and Yes, There is a Santa Claus.

Is it really fall ?

Mother Nature. Are you there? Hello! It's October 1st and it's gonna be 104 today! Just sayin'.
I figured if I made a fall card she'd hear me or I'd at least feel a little cooler. So far it hasn't worked. We even put up all the Halloween decorations and still nothing...I hope wherever you are you are feeling the early signs of fall and making some time to be creative.

Faa Laa Laa Laa Laa

So I was without a computer for several days. You just don't realize how much you depend on certain things until you don't have them any more.  I was still able to check my email on my phone and surf the net for than matter, but it's just not the same. Luckily I know a guy ;) (hi honey) and am happy to report I'm back in business! I'm slowly but surely getting a few Christmas cards made. I have 4 so far. LOL! It's kinda hard to get into that Christmas spirit when it's still 100 degrees outside. Hopefully fall will make an appearance soon. I can't wait!! Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Mojo Monday Sketch 259

Happy Mojo Monday! Thought I'd play along this week since I had a little time today. Been thinking about Christmas cards too and managed to get a couple made last week. Seems like no matter how early I start I always come up short. Thanks for looking today!

Just A Note

When I saw this musical note stamp at Michaels I knew just what to do with it. I think it took me longer to find my "just a note" stamp than it did to make the card. I couldn't remember what set it was in so I had to go through all of them. As usual the card is nicer in person because I still can't seem to master the art of photography. Anyway, you get the idea. Thanks for looking and have a fantastic weekend!

OWH Stars and Stamps Sketch Challenge 134

Since I wont be able to do OWH midweek throw down this week I decided to do the sketch challenge. I really like this sketch and the ideas are flowing. It's the first day of school so I have plenty of time to stamp today. Yeah me!! Thanks for looking and happy first day of school.

Midweek throw down

It's time for OWH midweek throw down again. This weeks challenge is to use kraft cardstock and a one or two other colors. I went with something simple this time around. I thought about xacto-ing out the windows so the yellow would show through but they are just too tiny and I'm still lacking dexterity from my injury so I didn't even try. Thanks for looking!
