Happy Thanksgiving
















Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!! I hope you all had a wonderful long weekend, with some quiet moments to truly be Thankful for all the blessings in your life. I know I did!!! I had a great family dinner last night at my cousins house. Thanksgiving Turkey is the best one of the year. It's the first one in the season of Turkey. It is always so nice to see the Aunt's, Uncle's and Cousins all together at holiday dinners. Tonight I had a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner with two special friends and their families. Great food, great laughs and really great people!! I also spent some time this weekend making some new cards. A friend asked me to make a wedding card for her so I got going and made a couple and then kept on truckin'. I pulled out a stamp set that I haven't looked at in a long time. They turned out pretty good. I will keep going and get some more made. All in all a great weekend, with so much to be Thankful for. Thank you to all of you for checking my blog, and supporting me. I love to make cards "on demand" so just let me know if you need anything.

Ok, so I saw this layout for a card over the summer and thought I would try it. I have made about 5 cards this way now, and I really like how they turned out. It's a fun layout. The last one was just a way to use the polka dot paper and the butterfly. Now that school is back in, and September is almost over I should have some more time to work on cards. I have taken on the position of Pac President at my kids school and that has kept me running for all of September. I am hoping that October slows down to a slow jog, and then I can make some time for sitting at this desk making cards. Keep checking back, I will add new pic's whenever I have anything made. And, once I have some inventory built up I am going to get them into the two stores that I hinted at in the spring. Happy Fall Everyone!!!!!

End of Summer

Well, everyone, I have some new VERY cute baby cards to post. The problem is, our computer, or camera, depending on which we are currently blaming, is having technical difficulties! The computer won't read the camera, so the cute pic's I have just have to stay in camera memory. The real pain is that the memory card in the camera is full, so as summer comes to a close I can't take any pictures of my extremely cute children! Anyway, keep checking back and as soon as we figure out this little dilemma, I will post some pic's for you!! Enjoy your last weekend of summer!!!!

Home Sweet Home

As summer comes to a close, we have moved to our new house and finally feel like we are "Home!" The kids are thrilled to be moved, my hubby is working like crazy at all those little odd jobs that come with moving, and I am just so happy to be in the neighbourhood! I made a career decision this summer too, and am now again, staying home with the boys and focusing on my family which leaves me lots of time to work on cards. I should, right now, really be unpacking, but thought since I am finally in the triple digits of visitors to this blog, that it was time to add some new stuff. Although our summer has been a little hectic, I have had some time to make a few cards for some special, and one sad, occasions. I am also going to be making the baby announcements for a very good friend who is expecting her third little boy in just a few weeks. I will be sure to post one of those once they have her approval too.

As we head back to school and into fall I will soon have some more selection made for you to see on here, as well as some box sets for all occasion. I will also be selling my cards in "Walnut Grove Vacuum" once I get some made. I will be sure to post on here once they are available.

Enjoy the last few lazy days of summer everyone, it will too soon be back to the routine and craziness of the fall.














Picture for a Friend

This is a 12" x 12" wall picture that I made for a good friend of mine for her Birthday this spring. She commented on this particular card and said how nice it would look as "wall art." I thought it sounded like a good idea so I tried it out. I love how it turned out. It took some creative photocopying and cutting but in the end turned out great!! They are available for order, so let me know if you would like one or something similar. Not all cards would work large, but I can always try!! I hope you all like it as much as she and I do!!
