Just a little something to share

It's a warm and rainy day for this time of year..... let's just say a great day for scrappin'. I really enjoy being upstairs in the scrap room when it's raining and you can hear it hitting on the window. Just a very relaxing atmosphere. Of course, it doesn't do much for giving you lots of "mojo", but it feels terrific. So I just put together a little distressed card today, something different for me.

I got this LaBlanche stamp during the Christmas holidays and just decided to use it. They are beautiful and stamp so clear.

Well, my friends, that's all I have for today. Thanks for stopping by.
Take care and God Bless.

Two posts in two days...wooo hooo

To continue on with my BFF's needed cards, I have finished the Easter Card for her Secret Pal. Out in the mail they go to my BFF and I hope the Secret Pal enjoys receiving them, when it's time to send each one to her, as I have had creating them.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek. I enjoy comments, so if you have a minute drop me a line.
Take care and God Bless.

I'm baaaaackkk!!

Hi all, I hope everyone had great holidays. Mine were fine and of course busy with out of town company, cooking and all the holiday duties, so of course I did not get to scrap. Well, I really needed to get moving here because my BFF's birthday is soon, plus she needed a Mardi Gras card for her Secret Pal from high school, (fifty plus years ago) WOW!!

The school girls gathered for a Christmas get-together and it just so happened her Secret Pal brought the Christmas card with her (and was sitting next to her) and was telling everyone how her secret pal sends such wonderful cards. Needless to say, I really felt great when she called and told me as I have been making all her cards for her. LOL I need to finish her list as she still needs, Valentine, St. Patrick, and an Easter card and then in May the pals get to meet and find out who their secrect pals were. They also, get to pick another one, so I will have to continue to keep my BFF in supply. LOL It's been fun.

So first of all, here is my BFF's birthday card she will be getting soon.

And I did finish the Mardi Gras card, so here is my BFF's card for the occasion.

I did go visit her between Christmas and New Years in Louisiana and we had the greatest time together. We may not talk for a few weeks by phone but when we do it's like we've been together all the time. She is really my BFF, God Bless her.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek, I enjoy your visits and comments.
Take card and God Bless.

OH My Gosh By Golly

She is such a cutie I just can't help making cards with her. She is one of the cutest digis I have seen. Thanks to Inky Impressions for such a great design.

Well, you know Grandma got run over by a reindeer and all other sorts of things have happen to her, but this time I think she is just over the hill. ;)

The card sentiment is not too clear, but it says:

People really act weird at Christmas time!
What other time of year do you sit in front of a dead tree in the living room and eat nuts and sweets out of your socks?

I hope you've enjoyed my little humor here and if it made you smile, then I accomplished what I set out to do.

Take care and God Bless.

What a gorgeous card!!!

I just had to show y'all the most beautiful birthday card I received. It was created by my great friend, Joy, purttypaperz,who makes the most beautiful cards. You really need to check out her blog and see her creations.....they are awesome.

It is an easel card and oh, so fab. Thanks again Joy for remembering my birthday, but especially for making such a fantastic card.

Oh, what fun!!!!

The first Saturday of each month my daughter and I have a card class and crop with about 30 of the greatest, funloving ladies ever. There is so much laughter, sharing and having such a wonderful time I thought I would share a few pictures. We have it in our fellowship hall at Messiah Church, Prattville, Al.

We teach a new technique every month and it's lots of fun. We have some advanced scrappers and we have some beginners, so we have a fun time.
We really enjoy each and everyone of our scrapping buddies.

So again, thanks for stopping buy and taking a peek. Take care and God Bless.

Morning Y'all

It's been a little crazy around here, the family had some sort of crud going around, sinus infections, and my daughter had pneumonia. Everyone is healthy and my daughter and I are feeling Scappy again. There has been soooo much going on I can hardly wait to share. We received our, well, really hers (she paid for it), ;-) , new cutting machine, BaZINGa, we thought that was a cute name. You need to go to her blog and read about the excitement on it's arrival.
Her Blog is Sassy Scrappers Studio, it is so funny.

Now,on to the next morning during my first cup of java while trying to get all the functions working for the day, when you're old it takes a while, I always look at all the great blogs I follow and then some and stampTV had a tutorial for the bleach technique, which I have never tried, so I decided hey, lets go for it. The cardstock was the Deep Gold color and after the bleaching the flower petals turned to such a delicate Ivory. So here is my card for my very first bleach attempt project. I was really amazed.

Thanks to Gina K. on stampTV for doing the tutorial.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek. Take care and God Bless.
