Good Grief

I can't believe it's been almost a month since I've blogged. Between taking classes, being a teachers, and flitting around for the last two weekends...I've been busy. Hope to post this weekend. I have a swap I NEED to get done.

I'm Alive!

Believe it or not I'm alive. Between school, graduate classes, bookkeeping responsibilities, being a farm wife, and grandmother...I don't seem to have any time for card making. Here's a little bag I made at a SU workshop in Sept. , when I went to Omaha.

Also, I want to thank all the stamping bloggers who are going PINK.
I'm a 4 year breast cancer survivor and I appreciate all the support. It's really hard to explain how terrible it is to experience cancer.

So all I can say is THANKS!!

Weekend Ramblings

I'm off to a five hour card (making) party tomorrow. I'm flying to my daughter's in order to attend. We'll create in the morning and shop in the afternoon. I leave before the sun rises, so I may need a nap to recuperate!

Hope to post some finished products at the first of the week.

Weekly Update

This weekend was devoted to family. Saturday I visited my mom in a nursing home (3 hour drive), then my son and his family (it was on the way home). Today the youngest grandson was baptized.

I'll be home next weekend so I do plan on stamping...please stop by. I enjoy checking other blog sites in the few free moments I have during the day but with teaching full time and taking 7 graduate hours, my days are busy.

Enjoy the week. It's suppose to be cooler here this week...yeh! I won't have to run the air conditioner at school as much.

Marvelous Monday

Thanks to a 3-day weekend I finished my latest swap. This was nice because the theme was 'anything goes'. It gave me a chance to use Lasting Impressions paper...I like the way the paper coordinates and the affect is soft and subtle. I've decided I like looking at bold , bright, and busy cards but I prefer to make simple and sweet cards.

Have a good week. Chat with you next weekend.

Update

Update:

• Been in school 2 weeks
• Sharing a cold (already) with a few students
• Taking 7 graduate hours
  

It looks like the only free time I have for blogging will be on weekends. I've been having blog withdrawal symptoms with school starting.

I miss making cards everyday, but look at the swap cards that came in the mail today.
Happy weekend.

Weekend Ramblings Part II

OK... am I the only one where after you've made 4-5 cards and finally...the last one is the best...PLEASE tell me it happens to others. Here's the last card I made. I ran out of lavender paper so I used some of the vase material. I like it sooooo much better. It's for a swap, so I'll let the swap sponsor deal with the situation.

I've ordered more paper from Lasting Impressions today. I've decided I like patterned backgrounds.

Enjoy what's left of the day and Sunday.
