The Wedding Card

This is the wedding card I made for Antonio and Jenna.  I used the stamp set Together Forever, and used God's Blessings for the verse inside.  Of course Taffy had to be up on the stamping desk while I was working on it.  She was picking out flower's with her teeth out of my "Prettie's Kit".  Little stinker....she is something else!  You can't help but hold back a chuckle....she is just like having a two year old in the house.  And she is almost 2 by the way, she will be the end of February.  Then a little while later, I was ready to shoot her as I caught her walking across the curtain rod that is above my colbalt blue and blue & white collection and I about had a stroke!  LOL  I am telling her to get down...and she is backing up across the curtain rod.  Man.....that cat!  Any whoo...I used the new Bride's paper that is in the catalog for the base of the card.  It is so darn pretty!  You will love it....very elegant!

Close As A Memory, God's Blessing, Fine Lace, Fine Frames

Hello! Another busy day in Mayberry. Sandy Wellumson stopped over for awhile and so did Lady Di. Di and I were stamping. I decided to work on sympathy cards today as I needed a few to send and also need some for the flea market. I made 4 of each of these cards today. Close as a Memory is one of my very favorite stamp sets as Di will tell you. I love it. Just love those flower's in it and every time you swap out the color's, your cards looks very different. I also made the Pumpkin Pie cards with God' Blessing and the Fine Frames as this is a popular card that goes well. I think it is because the wide twill tape looks like a book mark in a bible, or perhaps it is the saying, I am not sure, but people like that one. Any hoo...it was a productive day and I need to drop some stuff down to the flea market before it get's dark and my mom sig's the sheriff on me! LOL Stop down to see me and have a Happy 4th! Boo

Carte Postale Sympathy Card

I made 10 of this card last night using the stamp set Carte Postale. My friend in Oregon, Colleen wanted this set and I picked it up for her. It was suppose to be sent directly to her but came to my house instead. So now I am playing with it until I send her package out and she is threatening to hold my stamp set "Punch Pals" as ransom until she get's her Carte Postale. Oh the fun we have....tee hee. I am so glad that she came into my life! She is a blessing! It is a gloomy icky day here today. The weather has flipped flopped and it is so cool that I have a t-shirt, sweatshirt, jeans, socks, and tennis shoes on! It feels so strange to have shoes on as I haven't worn anything but my sandals and capri's for months now. But it feels good...I like the cooler weather.

Today my upline Chrissy from Tastefully Simple was here and we had a meeting with a potential recruit that I have. If any one else is interested in signing up...this is a good time to do it as you receive alot of extra goodies besides what comes in your kit.

I am working on 39 mini notebooks to sell at the moment. I got the pattern paper cut and covered them last weekend and was cutting and tying ribbons on them this afternoon. Now I just need to finish decorating them.

Sarah and Zach have found a house that they like and are very excited about it. Please keep them in your prayers as they have had many disappointments over other homes they have looked at. A lot of homes they have looked at have been trashed...etc. The house they are looking at needs some updating but is structurally in good shape. I remember looking at houses when I was there age and it is so hard because you can't afford a lot but want your own place so badly. So please keep them in your prayers that if this is meant to be...they will get it!

Tonight is my scrap booking class. I am eating a salad right now and I am about finished so better head out. We are having Tastefully Simple's Banana Rum Cheese ball tonight with the Twisty Grahams! Yum! Have a good night! Boo
