Woo Hoo Finally !!!!

Hello Everyone, Woo hoo I finally got my photoshop to download and work with the new computer. The picture system that was on the new computer had no features. Pictures just downloaded and I could not fix any pictures or crop. It took almost two weeks. Thanks to my son and his laptop I have been able to check everyones blogs and even do some blog hopping. I even won some blog candy. Can't wait till it gets here. As you see in the header photo I have been working on projects just to really calm me down from fighting with the new computer....LOL...... The next card is one that I will be doing a tutorial on. It will be posted later next week.

Then there is the third card that I used several

techniques. This next week I will be working on

posting all the projects that I got done these last

two weeks. I will also be posting these to my Etsy

shop soon. Monday morning I will be posting the giveaway that I

will be holding so be sure to check back in.

Hope everyone is having a Splendid evening.

Good start to a New Year

Hello Everyone,

A while back I told all of you that I was a guest

tutorial writter on Toucan Scraps Blog. I have

been asked to be part of her design team and

writer and I excepted. Starting in January I

will writing tutorials on Angelas blog. I'm real

excited and a little nervous about it. I will give

it my all thats all I can do.

I also found this great giveaway that is to die

for. Ruby of Nanaseasides blog is celebrating

her 40th wedding anniversary so she is holding

a giveaway to celebrate. Take a look at it below.

Isn't it great?

January is my birthday and it was also my

cousins birthday (my cousin that passed away

in October) so as a remembrance of his life I

will be doing a giveaway, so stay tuned to see

what I will be giving away.

We had another storm that came in so we are

dealing with very slick streets.

I have to thank my neighbor that brings in his

farm tractor and makes sure that we are never

buried in. I made him a special card. What do

you think about it?

Hope everyone is having a Splendid Evening.

Be careful and stay safe!!!!!!!

Busy as a Bee

Hello Everyone,

I know it's been a while but I've been a little busy. The tag that

you see in the header picture is one of ten that I did for a tag swap

for Welcome to Kinderstampo. The theme is Wishing you a Pink

Winter Wonderland. Not real happy on how they turned out but

you know how it is we crafters are hard on ourselves.

The next two pictures are of some blog candy that I have won on

some blog hops (rubber stamps). There are a couple more blog hops

that I have won some more blog candy and as soon as I get the prizes

I will post pictures of that. The picture of the first stamps are not even

realeased yet to the public. They won't be till January. How neat was

that?

The lovely ladies in the next picture is a group of ladies that I did

a card class with. I spent two hours with them. It was a lot of fun

and relaxing. They were such awesome ladies and I'm looking forward

to doing a few more card classes with them since they requested that

I come back and teach again.

Oh I almost forgot I was featured in not one but two treasuries on Etsy "Expecting a Blizzard tonight" done by RuralMemories and "Silvery White Goodness" done by edelyn. Thank you two so much for including my snow tag in both treasuries. If your looking for some thing of the years gone by edelyns shop just might have it. Check it out if you get the chance. RuralMemories does some beautiful painting and home decor. Stop in and check the painting that she does. Hopefully this weekend I will get to post all the other things that I have been working on. Till then I hope everyone is having a Splendid Time.

Snow Snow and more Snow

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for taking so long in posting my pictures of our

snow. In the header picture you see the ruler that I

used to measure our snow accumulation.

I went out and found that the snow had not been

disturbed at all on the boat so that is where I took

our snow measurement.

Here is a close up and the measurement I got was 9".

We have been shoveling out for a few days then it

started to melt and in the evenings it becomes a sheet

of ice on the roads. It's been a little wild and crazy around here. So please

forgive for being MIA again.

I don't know if I will actually go do the show this

weekend it all depends on the weather. If we get

the new storm that they are calling for on friday

I probably won't. I'll see what happens.

Hope everyone is having a Splendid Evening!!!!!!!!
