There it is!!!!

Hi

It is finally done!!! Now that I can find my desk I have no excuse so next week after my company leaves I will have a card.

Sat down last night and tried out quilling. I hope I can get a card made since this will be my first attempt at quilling.

Juliet, it is now P.U.T.D. (pile UNDER the desk). lol

Have a Blessed day.

What happens when you lose something????

Hi

Warning!!!! Photo heavy blog

There is nothing good to be said about trying to clean up a craft room

I now know where my blank blank quilling stuff is-----in the Christmas box!!!! What was it doing there? and no, there will be no quilling for awhile. lol

Just saying

In the search for my quilling supplies I decided to clean up the craft room.  I even brought in a 6 foot folding table to sort things on !!  When that got full the floor became the next best solution.  The shelves are done.   To the right of them is my desk which I need to clear to work on. 

When it is sorted and put away I will post again.  Pretty soon I am hoping to get at some cards.  (I know that I keep saying that and I don't actually get at it). 

Have a Blessed day.

Hello Mojo !!!

Hi
It seems as though my mojo may be coming back. 
Unfortunately the reason it is coming back was because I needed a card.
This is a card I made for my brother who has a very scary medical condition and they can't do anything until the end of November.  It is a potentially fatal condition.  We are praying they do surgery before it bursts.
The lattice is an svg by Images by Heather.
Have a Blessed day.

Quilling

Hi
I have nothing to show today but wanted to direct those of you who enjoy quilling to a blog.  This site features some absolutely gorgeous and very intricate quilling projects.

I have had quilling on my mind for awhile now but cannot find my little quilling tool and papers.  A sure indication that the craft room needs to be organized. 
Have a Blessed day.

Not a card

Hi
Just a little peek at what I have been doing.  We took a trip to my brothers in Creston, B.C. and raided his garden.
Here are mustard bean pickles, beet pickles and grape jelly, cherry jelly and strawberry jelly.  Did you know that if you have to reboil a batch you lose about half a jar?  I had to reboil 2 batches as when they were cool they were just syrup and that would never do.  There are several packages of carrots in the deep freeze ready for eating or making carrot cake. 
While in Creston I had an opportunity to spend a little time with my blogging buddy, Gail, who was also visiting there.  It was great to see her but the time was too short.
The front porch is built and the new lawn is in and looks lovely.  My few tomato plants are starting to have a few red tomatoes and my pepper plants have a few nice size peppers.  Just a few more things to be done around the yard and then I hope I am ready for fall.
I love fall and hope to get a couple of fall cards done. I love laying in the hammock and watching the hawks circle the field in front of our home.
Have a Blessed day.

Sparkly shoes

Hi
This is the other birthday card I needed for the month of July.  My dear friend Vivian and I share the same date.  Her birthday and our anniversary (34yrs this year) are on the same day. 
I am so bad in remembering where I got things from.  The medallion was in the P.O.T.D. (if anyone recognizes it as their work please let me know and I will give you the credit) and the flower was from my old stash, the butterfly is a peel off from the Dollar Store.  Now I DO remember where the shoe svg comes from Denise from Bocca.  The glitter shows really white in the photo but it is very sparkly cream colored in real life.
Have a Blessed day.

Birthday teapot

Hi
Thank goodness for birthdays.  I have two very dear friends who are having birthdays this month and so I needed cards for them.   Perhaps this will get me back on card making before the summer is over.
The teapot is an svg from Birds Cards and the iris folding was from a wonderful tutorial by http://paperboutique.blogspot.com/.  I love making iris fold cards but so often the patterns I have aren't appropriate for the occasion.  This way I can use what ever cutout I want.  Love it.
Have a Blessed day.
