New Card

This card was made to celebrate the 80th birthday of my husband's grandmother. I used papers from Basic Grey's Wisteria line and I am very happy with the completed product. The photos don't quite do it justice but I posted it to my blog none the less. Happy Tuesday!

A 3rd Card in 1 Day!!!


It was my birthday recently so you'll see a couple thank you cards posted in short order. The saying goes... necessity is the mother of invention... so I bring you the 1st of my thank you "inventions" and I also had to include a picture of the gift I received. It was such a surprise and delight to receive. I think I'd even say it might be my new favourite type of bouquet.
FABULOUS GIFT...

The Time Has Finally Come...

It is a small miracle but I have 2 cards to post to my blog. Since my last post I have also done a birthday card in addition to these 2 but it was completed last minute & I didn't have time to take a photo. I also didn't feel at the time that it was photo worthy. Thinking back now, I wish I had taken the time to grab a quick snapshot.
Oh well, I following 2 cards are complete so a blog post they shall be...

This card is part of a Basic Grey card kit that I jazzed up ever so slightly.
I feel iffy about this one. I'm undecided about it's success but my feeling is that a lot of my hesitation is due to the fact that this card was born of my own creative mind and I didn't use any other ideas as a jumping off place to start. Call it creative insecurity... so for that reason alone I am very proud of it.

Photo Fabulous - Lemonade Purchases

New Basic Grey Lines

Mmmm… pure bliss was the emotion I felt Wednesday night as I logged onto my email and read the “What’s New” update from my LSS to discover they had the new BG line’s June Bug & Lemonade in stock. From the moment I had stumbled across the info BG was releasing 2 new lines & they were set to ship mid-June I have been waiting with baited breath. Just ask my husband. I actually squealed after telling him the news. I promptly checked the website of my favourite LSS, as they have a storewide 30% off sale this whole week, to see if they rec'd the product. Lets just say my hubby should feel extremely lucky I was able to contain my excitement as I felt like soda can that had been shaken and someone had just cracked me open.

Needless to say Thursday was a shop, shop, shopping day for me. I was in 7th heaven. Beautiful stuff. NOW!!!!! Let’s get down to business…

Signing off to go be a busy beaver. Happy weekend!
