Merry Christmas

 Hello Happy December! How is everyone doing?  I've been busy with family and life. Sure do miss sharing and visiting with you. I do a lot of crafting with my grandkids and we made these gift tags. 

My granddaughter wanted these cute reindeer

 felt stickers at Hobby Lobby. How could 

I so no to these adorable reindeer and her

precious smile. I cut out the tags and she did 

the rest.

I saw these gnomes stickers and just had to 

have them to match my wrapping paper.

Sending you many Blessings in the New Year! God Bless you and your family.

PEACE - HOPE - LOVE - FAITH - May this be your gifts this Christmas season. 

Happy Birthday

 Thanks for stopping by. Have a fun and safe 4th of July. 

Where have I been?

Happy Monday. Sorry I've been MIA for awhile now. Life has just been so busy. The craziness started in April with my TOPS (take off pounds sensibly) state recognition days, three days of fun, speakers and lots of labor of love. 

May is always a busy month. We had a wedding, fun run, grandkids end of year school celebrations and field trips. There were several graduations, Mother's day and more birthdays. 

Here we are in June with more graduation parties and all the grandkids are enjoying being out of school staying with grandma and grandpa. The grandkids keep us busy playing, crafting, reading, swimming and just being with their cousins.

Can you believe I had one day that I spent with Heather my neighbor to make these beautiful cards. We had so much fun.  I wish I could say that I made cards for all the graduations, wedding and birthdays but I didn't. I bought all my cards....(sad face) I received some beautiful handmade cards for my birthday. I will share them in the weeks to come. 

The cups are several layers of 

beautiful colors.

Love this birthday card.

Thank you all for stopping by!! Hopefully the rest of the summer will bring more crafting time. Enjoy your summer. God Bless.

Birthday Wishes

Happy Monday! I hope you had a wonderful and Blessed Easter. Today I'm sharing a card I saw on Mary Fish's blog and just loved the fun shape of the card. A few weeks ago I was able to craft with my neighbor so I'll post those cards next week. 

Inside the card I'm still using the same saying.

Have a super great week! 

 

Easter Baskets

Happy Monday. Are you getting together with family and friends for Easter? My family gathers at my house for a BBQ, Easter egg hunts and just enjoy being together. Everyone brings a little something for each of the kids but over the years its turned into Christmas. The kids get Easter baskets from each family and go home with multiple baskets and goodies. Just to much stuff. 

This year I decided to buy each child a basket and everyone can bring one item to put into each child's  basket. Then I saw the prices of baskets (what? How much?) So I made them baskets instead. At the  Dollar store I bought plastic baskets, bunny feet and tails. The bunny ears were purchased at Hobby Lobby with the grandkids, for a $1.79 at 40% off sale.  Total cost for each basket $3.45. Huge savings compared to buying a premade basket. They were so much fun to make too.

Printed bunny face online.

Bunny ears, tails & bunny feet.

I made 10 baskets.

 We have 9 little ones and 1 preteen. 

One of my granddaughters pick the

 gray ears. 

 You all have a blessed Easter Sunday! 

Happy Birthday

Happy Monday! How is everyone doing today? Can you believe it's the last week of March? Summer is just around the corner. Today I'm sharing a couple of birthday cards, I saw this layout on Pinterest and just put my own twist on it.  

The bow is made with one of my favorite punches

from Stampin UP, the bow builder punch. 

Inside the card

 Enjoy your last week of March, April here we come.......

Bird-day

Happy Monday! Hope your all having a wonderful day. A few weeks ago I was able to go next door to Heather's house and make some cards. It was nice to just do some crafting while visiting and catching up on each other's life. These days Heather is doing a lot of forest animal cards and they are so adorable. 

 Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Birthday Music Card

Happy March Monday! Here is another music card for a family member. Lots of musicians in the family.  

My grandson just loved this guitar

embellishment. Maybe he will play

a musical instrument. 

Inside the card. I'm sure you noticed

I've been using the same saying on 

all my cards. These days I'm limited

on time so the stamp sits on my desk 

to used quickly. 

 Have a great week!

Music Card

Happy Monday Morning! Last day of February already. Lots of birthdays in my family in February. This card was made for my nephew who teaches music in college. 

Music is the universal language of the world. What's your favorite music?
