I guess Mother Nature didn't like me complaining about the weather, because today is gray, wet, snowy, coooold- made the rest of the week look like a tropical paradise-lol!!! This would have been the perfect day to snuggle in bed for a bit longer : ) Then to spend the day making cards...oh a girl can dream, I'm already at work getting ready for the fun of it all. I am making headway on the report due end of next week, so that's a good thing and tomorrow is Friday, that is a wonderful thing. We have a birthday party on Saturday for both our niece & nephew, so that will be fun, they are such good kids!!!!
Well better get to my new card, I'm certain this card is bright enough to get rid of some of the gray around here today-lol!!! A customer asked me for a " Vegas Wedding" card...my mind went to bright, neon fun Vegas....next thought, can't make a neon wedding card, just couldn't........so bright RED it was.........
I have to say this card in my head was 100% different & I did change it up a couple times when I was working on it, you know how it goes, not always easily : )
products used: all pps: We R Memory Keepers. cricut. nestabilities. chapel & gem heart: K & company. "vegas" sticker: Paper Studio. Ink: Studio G. bling: Michaels.
Have a wonderful Thursday, the weekend is coming!!! TFL!!! Lynn
Half way to the weekend- wooohooo!!! So far we've had very sunny days this week, which I think helps w/everyone's mood : ) Ooops, except my boss who just walked in & doesn't seem overly happy-yuk!! I guess that means I better get to work-double yuk!!! Nothing much exciting is happening w/me anyways...I did get some card orders last night, so have some extra card to work on.
Still working away at my Easter cards, I think I have @ 6 done so far. I hope you enjoy my new one. This was a quicky card for me : )
products used: sticker: Bo Bunny. green pp: Echo Park. border punch: Fiskars.
Have a great day!!! TFL Lynn
I know I've said that before, but really Mother Nature needs to take a hint : ) Right now it's only 21 degrees out, thank goodness there's a big bright sun!! Usually by now our average is @40 degrees, we've got a ways to go. I'm pretty sure I've been wearing turtleneck sweaters since October, I'm ready to switch my wardrobe over...it's kind of like having all new clothes, know what I mean?!
I spent most of my weekend w/Mom. We had a fun weekend, we went to Shea's & saw Frankenstein, it was surprisingly entertaining. We've seen some boring shows before luckily this was not one of them. We of course got some shopping in, went to Joann's they had a very good sale going on. We also had lots & lots of food. Went to Red Lobster on Friday, yummy!!!!!!!
Well better get to my new card & get to working. We have a state report due for work in a week, so need to concentrate on that today- oh what fun : ) I'm trying to really kick myself into Easter Card mood & I have managed to get a couple done-yeah!!
products used: duck: Darcie's ucuts. ribbon: American Crafts. rub-on: Target. Cricut. gems. button. Epoxy. sorry, have no clue of any of the pps.
I hope everyone has a sunshiny Tuesday!! TFL! Lynn
Woke up to snow this morning!!!! I know it's only March (did I say only?), but really, enough snow! It was a sloooow drive to work. The top layer of everything is snow & then you get to the crusted ice packed on the roads, so not only a slow ride, a bumpy one too. Anyways, made it to work safe & sound, now gotta get ready for another fun filled day : )
It's been slow going for me this week w/the cards & the ones I have gotten made I haven't had a chance to photograph, so today's card is a bit older. I never knew it, but I must have a thing for owls, as I tend to use them quite a bit on my cards...but - look how cute he is : ) I love being able to use playful sentiments w/my embellies on my cards....My husband calls me cheesy- that's me -LOL!!!
products used: pp: Target. owl sticker: Recollections. Cuttlebug. Nestability. pearls: Queen & Company. ribbon: Paper Studio. Ink: Stampabilities. button.
Have a great Wednesday (half way there, you know what I mean)!!! TFL!! Lynn
Typical Monday- gray & rainy, not all that cold though-yeah!!! I had a very nice relaxing weekend, making cards-double yeah!!!! Did watch a bit of NCAA basketball- what happened to Syracuse & Pit (sorry Jeremy)??!! Well as usually for a Monday morning, I"m running late, in a funk & my desk is a MESS.
Need to get to my new card......it's nice & bright & hopefully will put a smile on your face : )
products used: stripe & polka dot pps: October Afternoon. Journal tag: Best Creations. bike rub-on: American Crafts. stamp: Hero Arts. grass punch: Martha Stewart. Ink: Inkabilities
Happy Monday!! If the sun it out where you are, send it my way!! TFL! Lynn
Everybody has green on today....I hope Mother Nature takes the hint....I'm looking for green grass, some buds on the trees and even some flowers to poke their heads out. The sad part is around here it stays kind of chilly until almost mid- May and we have some time till then. Today's high is 55 degrees though- woohoo!!!!
I've had a very slow week w/my cards, been kind of in a funk. Can't have a "good day" everyday, unfortunately that's the reality of life. Good news though, is I did get 2 cards done last night-yeah!! I friend asked for a male get well card, boy I have the hardest time w/those. Probably because I love to do cutesy, happy colored cards & men aren't really into that. My husband does a great job pretending though. He's very very supportive of my hobby- thank goodness, as I've taken over the house w/it-lol!!!
We did get our new bed yesterday & I promise I will take some pics this weekend. I love it, now our room looks finished. We did a big addition on our house 6/7 years ago, so we've been in that bedroom for that long now & have never had an official bed. Kind of felt like we were still in college & believe me that was too many years ago to count. The other bad part is both of our spare bedrooms have real beds- couldn't have guest sleeping on the floor-lol. Wilson has tried out our new bed too & gives it his "paw" of approval : )
Well better get unto my new card, so I can get some work done-yuk!!!
products used: all pp: Basic Grey-Kioshi. cuttlebug. Nestabilities. ribbon: American Crafts. stamp: Fiskars (I think). vintage button. pearls. very very old rub-on couldn't even tell you the brand.
I hope everyone has a great Thursday. Just think 1 more day till the weekend. TFL!! Lynn
What a bright beautiful morning, though still a little cold, but I heard high of 50 at some point this week!! Yeah, we'll take it!!!! I'm of course, late again today & my desk is still a mess. I had to drop my car off at the dealers this morning. My check engine light has come one twice. I tried to get into the garage last Monday, but they were booked up. I may sound kind of snobby here, sorry for that, but I lease my vehicles, so I don't have problems & when I do I expect them taken care of right away. I make my payments on time every month, I expect service. I wasn't very nice about it last week when they told me I had to wait a week plus. There are so few BIG purchase that we make w/guarantees. I can honestly say I won't be buying another vehicle from this certain dealership,notice I never said where, we all are entitled to our own opinions. Sorry for the bitch session, I'm just waiting for the phone to ring & them to tell me I need to pay for something.....I'll keep you posted, keep your fingers crossed for no major problems!!!
Okay onto better things, which is of course my new card for the day : )
I have a thing for cupcakes lately. I think this is my 5th card in a month w/cupcakes, but I can tell you I don't have any of them left : )
I forgot my product list again today, so I'm going from memory...
product list: felt cupcake: Martha Stewart. scalloped square punch: EK Success. border punch: Fiskars Ink: pearls: Queen & company. gems: Michaels. Stampabilities. truq pp: My Minds Eye. I love the pink pp & right now can't remember the brand & I know I know it!!
Everyone have a great day & I hope you get to see the sun too!! TFL!!! Lynn
