Up for another day, another dollar : ) Yesterday was a bit busy at work & I'm sure today will be the same, so not really looking forward to it, but what ya gonna do!!!! I will say at least there's a; big bright sun out today w/blue skies & no prediction of snow!!!! Actually by Friday we are suppose to be near 45 degrees- oh, can't wait!!! Just for the record though, right now it's 10 out! brrrrr!!!!!


My honey & I had a very nice relaxing Valentine's Night : ) Can't say it was really all the different then any other night, except I got a couple presents -lol!!! We had a Walmart open by our house not to long ago & my husband found their scrapping section-yeah!! Needless to say I got some scrapping goodies & a box of chocolate for V-day. My honey really can be soo cute & then there are those other times -lol : ) I know I said no more V-day cards, but just wanted to share the one I made for my honey : ) With his cards, I usually try to use black & I have lots of "skull" pps, so it's usually one of those too. He raved about his card & said how "cool" it is- that put a big smile on my face. Hope you like it too!!

I have no clue where I got my button, but I love it & wish I had more. Thinking about it though, could make my own like this, just use a marker -hmmm, going to have to try that when I get home : )





Since I promised no more V-day cards & since I had most of my weekend to make cards, I have another one for you today.

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Happy Valentine's Day to all my family & friends!!!

I wish the sun was out today, but it is 40 degrees, so around here that's a heat wave-lol!! My awesome husband got my yellow roses for V-day, so I'm considering that my sunshine for the day : ) We do exchange little presents, but not until tonight---oh, I"m hoping for some new scrapping supplies-lol!! We had quite the relaxing weekend, which means I got quite a few cards made-yeah!! We did actually get a little snow both Saturday & Sunday morning, enough to call in for plowing, so my honey had to work a little : ( I'm so glad a lot of snow is melting w/the warmer weather today & yesterday, but now everything looks so dirty. Where is spring w/the flowers & the new green grass?!

As I said last week, I think it was, I'm done w/Valentine cards, so my new card for you today is a wedding card. I think it still works for today, it's about love & has a lot of RED on it, what more can you ask for on V-day?!

I don't have my product list w/my today, typical for a Monday : ) I hope everyone has a great V-day!! TFL!! Lynn

Thursday already & NO I'm not complaining-lol!

Brrrrrrrr- it's 5 degrees this morning, but there is blue sky & a big sun!! I can't say it's making it feel any warmer out, but it does lift the spirits : ) I thought we were going to get a night of uninterrupted sleep finally...it seems like my husband has been called out to plow for work every night lately & once again last night they called him in to salt the roads. I didn't even know we were suppose to get any snow. We only got about an inch & at least the phone didn't ring till 330am-yuk!!! Needless to say Wilson cuddle up w/me & we had the whole bed for the rest of the night-lol. Wilson is a snuggler-cuddler : )





I've been busy making cards, as usual. I just can't help myself. Besides the fact that I absolutely LOVE to make them, it's a stress reliever too. Don't get me wrong, my life isn't overly stressful- just the normals of life & work!! I have a bunch of orders for St. Patrick Day cards & I'm having a slow go w/those. I've had a hard time finding "cutesy" St. Pat's things. If you follow along w/my cards, you'll know I'm big on stickers- I use them on just about ALL of my cards, kind of like some people do w/stamped images. It's just my style & my thing-lol. I need @15 + St. Pat's cards & have 4 done so far, at least I still have the rest of the month : ) I hope you enjoy my new card- green green green : )






products used: green circle pp: Target. border punch: Fiskars. grass punch: Martha Stewart. Cricut. rub-on clovers: DCWV. stamp: Studio G. Ink: Stampabilities. * sorry I dont' know the other pps- they were in the scrap drawer & the rainbow sticker is from an old scrapping kit, but have no clue the brand.


Enjoy your Thursday- stay warm!!!! As always thanks for looking!! Any suggestions on where to get some cute St. Pat's things are always appreciated : ) Lynn

I'm a bad blogger-lol

I'm a bad blogger, I know I can't make it a whole week w/posts - sorry : ) I'm crunched for time again today- typical- oh, but the weekend is alllmoooost here : ) I wanted to at least post a new card, so I didn't feel like I was neglecting you...............

Yes, another V-day card to show you : ) I promise, soon a different type of card, but how can this little card w/that cute little pooch not make you smile.

Everyone have a great Thursday!! Stay warm, it's only 5 degrees here today, but the sun is out!!! TFL! Lynn

Another weekend over & baaackkk to work-yuk!!

Why are weekends only 2 days?? Mom came to visit this weekend, had a car starter put in her new car-yeah!!!! They are sooo handy, especially when you live w/cold weather, it's so nice to get into a warm car to come home from work...enjoy mom : ) We also did some shopping this weekend. Went to Joann's & Michael's. Mom got a Cuttlebug, yeah!!! Michael's had all sorts of clearance items, some of them were pretty good priced. Plus yesterday you got 25% off regular priced items. I've got a bunch of orders for St. Patrick's Day cards & let me tell you how hard it is to find cute St. Pat's things, everything is 4 leaf clovers- I need cute leprechauns & pots of gold-lol. I had a very good week (last week) w/selling my cards. I had made @25 V-day cards & I sold them all. My one customer is just "card crazy" & I love it!!! She bought 17 V-day cards, what do you do w/17??? It's almost time to put the v-day embellies away : (

I hope you enjoy my new card- I always forget about my little charms, but I didn't on this one : )
Sorry about the tilt on my picture. My great husband got me a new camera for Xmas. I"m still learning to use & still have issues. The colors are so bright & pics look good, except for the tilt, which is obviously the users fault-lol.

We are suppose to get snow storm this week, but it's a bright sunny day here, so I'm going to enjoy it well I can. I hope everyone has a "fab" week. As always, thank you for looking : ) Lynn

Where is the sun??

My first thought this morning- where is the sun? Keep in mind I do get up before the sun comes up this time of year-6am-yuk!!! We haven't had a sunny day in at least a week, it starts to get annoying & makes people miserable : ) Though my new card doesn't have a sun in it, i still think it's very cheerful. Hope you do to : )

Just wanted to report, my mom made it to vist w/no problems & YEAH- she got a new vehicle!!!!! Just nice to have the done with, huh mom?? We even found time to do a little scrap shopping ( of course). My mother-in-law gave me a gift certificate to Joann's for Xmas- it's all gone now-lol. They have a pretty good sale going on there through this Saturday- most of their scrapping goodies are 40% off. We also went to AC Moore, but there sales weren't all that good, gotta a couple things, of course-lol.

Have a great Wednesday!!! TFL! Lynn

Monday-yuk- COLD-yuk!!

It is too cold out today....brrrrr...it's -8!! Way to cold to have to be out & about : ) Mom & I were going to try again this past weekend to car shop for her, as her lease is up very soon. Anyways, can you guess....it snowed again this weekend. Every morning when i got up it was snowing really good. Mom's ride to my house is all country & alot of open fields w/blowing snow-yuk!!! I miss her & was really looking forward to our weekend, but didn't want her driving through crappy weather. I stayed home & made cards all weekend, I got soooo many done. Thank goodness too, it's going to be a busy week w/card sales for me-yeah!!! I did get to meet our new customer this past weekend, super nice lady & she plans on coming back for more cards-double yeah!!! Now if I could only get done all the cards I need to for the customers I have now-lol. Well better show you my new card & get to work. Mom is on her way here now, it was a bright sunny morning, hopefully good for her drive. I'm hoping to get out of work early to see her : )
