It's Snowing in Northern California

Brrrrr.....My dogs are loving the snow.....I on the other hand, think it's beautiful, but it can stop now!
My Mid-West children will think this is a dusting....Somebody get out the dust mop!

Our little wind mill is working overtime lately.... Well, I'm off to Weight Watchers. My buddy is driving...she's much more brave.
Have a warm week in your world!

Can You Guess My Granddaughter's Favorite Color?

Perhaps this isn't the standard 4 year old's birthday card, I can only tell you this isn't the average 4 year old. Excuse me, almost 5 year old. Her favorite color is pink. I think I have that covered.
She loves flowers, and ribbons and anything shiny (hmmmm wonder where she gets that? I wanted to make a card that stands up, so she can keep it on her dresser. Though we are separated by thousand's of miles, I want her to know I always am thinking of her and sending love and butterfly kisses. Her birthday isn't until March, I wanted to make sure her card would be finished and mailed in plenty of time. She's my little crafter....can you guess what her gift will be....

All card stock is from Paradise Scrapbook Boutique. As were the flowers, ribbon and crystal pick. Greenery punch is Martha Stewart. The patterned DP is from Three Bugs In A Rug - April Showers Collection. I've got to tell you...it's a large collection of double sided DP and the backs are as beautiful as the fronts....I hope you'll check them out...

Today was a play day with Brenda. It's always fun, and sometimes we spend more time talking and less time creating....today, it was about equal. Thanks Brenda for a fun day.

I hope tomorrow will be a wonderful day for all. May the sun shine warm upon your face.

Hugs to all,

Guess What Today Is....Hint....Wednesday

Good Morning....well, it's Wednesday and that means....It's time to show the world what your work desk looks like....Check out those who are playing along this week. I thought I'd start by showing one of the results.....
Then I'd move right into the desk. Now....this below photo is where I moved because my craft room somehow turned into a dumping ground...So, below is where I moved to make the above card.
And this is why I moved.....
In fairness to me....I have been busy this week, I taught a class on Tuesday of last week, and between then and now, I've been in creating mode for my March class, as well as yesterday I spent the day with friends playing at Paradise Scrapbook Boutique, the second Tuesday is our SOS day where we take whatever we want to work on and spend the day with friends exchanging ideas, sharing our toys and laughing.
When I came home, I found the nice mailman had delivered my order from Crafts U Love. Well I couldn't get started soon enough playing with the new embossing/cutting folders. Let me tell you, they are amazing! So, today it's the day to clean my craft room, which is where I am headed next.
Until later....have a most wonderful week, to all my friends in the mid-west and east....hang in there, spring is bound to come soon....
Hugs to all,

Easter Card Class

I'm trying to get organized and have my card class cards done well in advance. Sooooo for my March 1st class at Paradise Scrapbook Boutique...these are the two cards I'll be sharing with everyone. FYI....my classes have been changed to the first Tuesday of the month. So...for March it will be: March 1, from 1:00 PM to 3:00PM. Remember to give Karen a call
and she'll add you to the class list. Do you remember the little bunny search I did last month. Well, no one knew him, but everyone agreed...he is the cutest bunny ever. I'll be adding this graphic to my second card. The question remains....if you know him and who created him, PLEASE let me know. I'd love to give credit to the artist.
I hope you like the cards and I hope to see you in class.
I found this great blog page, one that is fun to play along with. I'll tell you what you need to do to play along. Take a photo of what your desk looks like on Wednesday.... easy yes? Check it out here. If you look at a past blog post, you'll see I got lucky and my desk wasn't too bad...however, I've gotta tell you, while creating these two cards it was pretty messy, actually really, really messy. I'm going to try to play along this week, I hope to see some of your work spaces too.
Tomorrow is SOS day, hope to see some of you there. Until then..... Have a WONDERFUL Week.
