Meander Album



I saw this cool tutorial on SCS for an album that is made with 1 piece of 12" x 12" paper,
2 chipboard coasters, and 4 pieces of designer paper, and I knew I had to try to make it... Well... Here it is; and I have to say I am pleased with the results! This is a cute little book that has pockets for journaling and pages for pics, etc. It measures 3 1/2" by 3 1/2 "

Happy Thanksgiving






Here are some of the pictures from our "Turkey" day gathering. The day was beautiful and the kids had a lot of fun with all the leaves that need to be raked!

Heat Wave anyone?!



I made this card for a friend who is turning 50! I cased the look of the
card from "Splitcoast " (http:www.splitcoasters.com/ga...p'ppuser=10116) from a card I viewed there, changing the papers, stamps, words, etc. Oh what fun it is to make cards for friends and family!

Christmas is Coming...


This is my first Christmas card of the year! I didn't start out to do one, but this is what I ended up with! The paper is Bayou Blue and the designer paper is My Mind's Eye. I used paint samples to stamp the Santa Claus on and to back it! I used color chalk gray to ink the edges of the designer paper. The wording was a gift from my daughter Erica from last year! The snowflakes were added on with pop dots ( I had them left over from an old project I did about 4 years ago!) Good thing I have "Packinsons" disease! I think it turned out great! What do you think?

Happy Birthday...


I made this card for my sister Marcia's birthday... I hope she likes it! I love the blues and greens in this card. I used my favorite stamp set "Be Happy" which you should recognize from my earlier "Happy Fall Y'all" card.

Viva Las Vegas


I just got back from Las Vegas where I deposited all my money... Well, maybe not all of it! I had a blast and got to spend a day with my family out there. I had a great visit with my sister Lynda and niece Jen, nephew Bob and got to see my great nephew Alex! This card was made for my friend Jayme whom I also spent time with. Her and her husband Tom chauffered my girlfriend Cheryl, her daughter Shannon and me around. I know she loves penguins, so I hope she'll love this card. Not a lot of stamping... I used my Cricut to make the penguins, and free handed the mountains. Enjoy!
