 Wondering here what I am going to share? Maybe I will feature some of my fall cards... Think it is about time. So I am going to pick a folder from my camera stick and find some images! Fanciful Leaves dies. A set of four and the possibilities are endless!

                This one is beautiful! The photo doesn't do it justice at all!

                        I used colored card stock, but think of blending the colors with your favorite inks colors! Purple leaves, why not??

                                           

                            The background die is from Pinkfresh studio. 

                               Hope you enjoyed & thanks for looking!

 One more design to share that isn't 'fall' themed yet! I like this Hero Art 'star wreath'. You can certainly use this for men, women, boys and girls. Just a nice versatile die.

                  Easy stripes, whatever size you like. I added a thin stripe of the silver in between the colors.

                       Hope you enjoyed & thanks for looking!

Hopefully we are ready to see some pretty cards! I planned to show 'fall' themed cards... but, I found these, and just knew I had to post them. The die is the unicorn from Elizabeth Crafts design. When I first got it I didn't like his/her face. I just grew to love her/him!

                                       Happy Unicorn!

                           There are 2 unicorns in the set.

       Sorry about the bad or 'no' editing! The background papers on the top 4, are from an old pink & main kit. The rainbow die is from the same kit. The paper with the heart background is from a MFT 6x6 pad. It is newer.  Hope you enjoyed. I had fun with them.

 October 18th!! Woo hoo!! I finally got into my blog. Somehow,
somewhere my password was changed or lost. But I am in! Today is my little furry girlfriends fourth birthday!!

                                  About 7 or 8 weeks old here.

                                             

              The next two pics are 2020. She thinks whenever a package comes it should be for her! She likes Amazon, Fed Ex, UPS, & etc.

                                           

                 She is easily entertained.... gift wrap roll, tp or paper towel rolls are all favorites.

                Her couch, her perch to watch the neighborhood, the trucks, the birds, and whoever passes by! Yes, we can wallpaper with all the pictures of Lucy!

 Lucys eyes are both half blue, half brown. Left eye is blue on the top & the right eye is blue on the bottom and brown on top. Cute.
                                         Happy girl!

                     I will stop for now. Maybe the birthday girl will get some ice cream today. ....Promise no more dog posts till next year!

                                           Thanks for looking

Tuesday October 10th

Today is my yearly tribute to my furry friends. Gracie is in the front. She is the little spaniel doggie. We lost her 4 years ago to kidney disease. Zoeie, (I am not sure what happened to her ear), was a wonderful girl. Lost her at age 16 in 2017.

The above pic was about 2012. The girl in the middle was Cupcake. Someone dumped her at the pound in 2008. Someone had her for 8 years and threw her away.  We were lucky enough to have her for 4 more years. She had lost weight in this  pic. Cushings.

                  Found some of these pic's on a floppy disc!            
                                           

                                      Zoeies beautiful eyes. A guy found her in the middle of Tropicana Ave in 2001. She was, we guessed about 4 months old. She is a Catahoula mix.

                                              Goofy Gracie!

Saturday October 8th

 It is a nice day here! Still warm, but not unbearable outside. As usual, I am inside finishing some cards and inside greeting for the cards.

This is the Willow dies from The Greetery. Made them some time ago. Anxious to make more@!

                                                                 

               Okay so, the willow cards were featured in previous post!! Oh no! But these, also from The Greetery, are newer. Crocus. Such easy dies and such wonderful words.

                     The Greetery dies. Garden Goodness.

 Each one of this is a different technique. The blue one is stenciled & I think the green one is too. The green has the stenciled pieces inlaid back into the white frame.

                                                                That is all for today!

                                            Thanks for looking!

This week has been interesting! Cleaned my cookies and had to re-log-in to everything except facebook. Go figure? I can't order on Ali, Ok no problem there for now, can't get into instagram yet. AND for some reason I can't rotate my pictures on my camera stick............ Mama said... you know, there will be days! Any ideas are welcome. 

          Decided to feature this die from the 'Greetery'. I know I will be making more of them. Really easy and nice for any occasion. A-2 Arches die, and the Elegant stamp. Go look at the samples, they really are pretty https://thegreetery.com/products/elegant-arches-stamp  Lets get started with my versions!

    The first one  is so understated if you looked at the Greetery examples. It is gold embossed and barely shaded in lavender ink. The one above is silver embossed on light blue with the memory box pinpoint background. The next ones are a red & green combination.

               Now its time to go be frustrated with my computer. OR, better than that, are Marianne animal dies. Wait for it!! Its a Unicorn. They are so cute!!

                                                                  Thanks for looking!
