Sew Thankful

I thought this would make a great Mother's Day card. Maybe it's because my Mom likes to sew. Yes her machine is more updated than this one. LOL! It's a pretty simple layout and I added some gold to the machine scroll work just to give it that authentic old fashioned look.

Enjoy!

Sew Sweet

I wasn't sure what I was going to do with this set when I ordered it. Now that I have it, I'm seeing lots of possibilities. It took me quite I while to get this one together, but I finally did it, and I like the way it turned out. I tried to capture the dimension in the picture, so I hope you can see it.

I hope you all had a great weekend and thanks for looking!

What I did on Superbowl Sunday

How 'bout those Packers!! What a great game. Did you see the Darth Vader commercial? If you didn't you really need to Google it. It was the best one.

These are the two cards I made yesterday before the game started. Once the game started I just couldn't focus on stamping. It must be the competitive side of me that enjoys football so much. Anyway, it was a really fun weekend and I hope yours was just as fun. Thanks for looking!

Good Luck

We could all use some good luck these days, don't you think? Are you all ready for Super Bowl Sunday? Even if you don't like football, it's worth watch for the commercials. I'm looking forward to spending my Sunday eating junk food and cheering for the Packers. I just may get some crafting in too. I hope whatever you do this weekend it's something fun!

LOST in thought

Doesn't this frog look like he's lost in thought? Speaking of lost, I know many of you watched this series when it was on TV. I never did. I thought it would be too creepy for me. Boy was I wrong. Since we have Netflix we were able to put the entire series in our instant watch que. We are all addicted now and have managed to watch the first season in about 4 days. We just started the second season last night, and I can't wait to see what happens next. If you haven't seen this show and need something to do on a winter stay at home day, I recommend this series. So for all you Lost fans, I get it now! I hope you are having a wonderful week and thanks for looking.

Outta This World

I'm not sure if I like this card or not. I like the colors and the layout is ok, but it's just not great. So I think I like it, but I don't love it. How does that sound? LOL. I hope you all are having a great Thursday and thanks for looking!

Pick a side

Since none of my teams (Colts, Giants, Vikings) made it to the play offs this year, my husband said I have to pick a team to win the Super Bowl. I decided to go with the Packers (to be read with a Sarah Palin accent). Even though I like the Steeler's, I'm going with Aaron Rodgers to lead Green Bay to a win. Ben (yes, we are on a first name basis) has already won two Super Bowls and holds the record for being the youngest quarterback in history to win a Super Bowl. So, I'd like to see the 27 year old Chico, CA native win this one (besides he has pretty eyes). That's not really the reason I just want to see if my husband is reading this. I think it will be a tough battle as the Steelers are a more seasoned team and Roethlisberger is the biggest quarterback in the NFL which makes him harder to sack. Then there's the whole passing team vs. a running team and a bunch of other stuff I'm still learning (if you read my previous post, you know I'm a slow learner). We'll see what happens on the 6th, but my pick is the Green Bay Packers!

Now that I've dazzled you with my extensive football knowledge, which side will you pick!
