In keeping up......

Hello everyone!!!!!!

Sorry for the late post I got kind of busy today and just

realized that I had not posted my card on my blog.

In keeping up with my New Years resolution here is

a Christmas card that I put together.

A real simple card. The image is Stampendous Poinsettia

Background cling stamp.  I colored the poinsettias with

water color pencils and embossed the sentiment with gold

embossing powder.

Hope you like this simple card. Until my next post

Have A Splendid Evening!!!!!!!!

I've fallen!!!

 

Hello everyone!

Hope to find everyone doing well. 

Did you think that I had fallen off the face of the earth?

No such luck...LOL... I have been busy taking care of some

things that kind of got left on the back burner last year when

there was so much going on with my family. I am almost

have caught up with everything.

This is just a quick post to show you one of several cards

that I have been working on. I'm not sure where the image

came from. If anyone knows who created the digi please let

me know so that I can give credit where credit is due.

A big thank you to all you wonderful artists

out there that allow us to use thier images.

I want to also remind you about the challenge over at

NMWC blog we would love for you to join in the link is

Thrifty Tuesday 2/5

Hello everyone!!!!!

Hope to find you all doing well. I'm keeping busy alot to do

these days. Before I get into my thrifty tuesday blog I want

to update everyone about my adopted granddaughter. Marion

was released from the hospital late yesterday evening.  She

is now home continuing the road to recovery. I thank you

all who heard my request for prayers and prayed for her and

her family. The power of prayer is so amazing as is our Lord.

Thank You Everyone from the bottom of my heart!!!!!

 

Now on to my picture. I have been watching alot of

scrapbooking haul videos lately and so many were able to

get to their local Michaels store and get some great buys.

For some of us it is a little hard to get to those great sales

because we have to travel a good distance. What is pictured

above is some stamps that I found at Craft Warehouse. They

have their Christmas items at 75% off and since not many

were paying attention to what the other craft stores are clearing

out I managed to get the stamps at $1.75 each. What a great

buy!!!

I also found some Washi tape it was marked $2.50 but when it

rang up it cost $1.75. Not the price that everyone else was paying

at the compition store but still a gret buy.

I also managed to find some of the Lost & Found Santa packs

I got these at 75% off the original price and these were the

only ones that I could find at my local store. Another great buy.

There was so much more that I could have purchased but I need

to use up all I have already before my husband kills me...lol...

Well I better go and see what I can create. Until my next post

Have A Splendid Afternoon!!!!!

 

 

Get Well Soon Card

Hello Everyone!

Hope to find you all doing well. The card in my header

picture is a card that I made for my adopted granddaughter

that became very ill last week and ended up in the hospital.

It was not good for her with all the health issues she has.

I asked all of you to pray and the power of prayer is just

so amazing that she might get to come home tonight or

tomorrow. Thank you to all of you that heard and read

my request. Marion was very ill and the doctors are just

amazed at her recovery.

Now on to my card.
