Welcome to my World

Welcome to my little corner of the vast God planned domain. I plan to share mostly my card projects here, you might even possible see some scrapping, quilt projects, and photography. Who knows I may even try other other craft projects. I am also going to share a selection of little recipe cards I have collected over the past few years - scrapped, of course. There may even be some little things of greatness of my daily life. Every now and then, I might even vent!

Smile

Good morning, I just wanted to post a quick little note since it has been a few days since I was here. I am sending this card I made over a year ago to someone for a swap so thought it would go great with this message. It is Friday and that always makes me smile to know we only have just 20 more days of work then a 6 weeks break. The stress is just terribly overwhelming at work right now, thus I look so forward to the weekends. Hope everyone has a great day. Say a little prayer for me to make it through without anymore anxiety attacks.

What a Retreat


I do not think I have laughed so hard in my life. I know I almost wet my pants about a dozen times to say the least. My cheeks hurt so bad when I went to bed after the first night. We had a gal from Bethel AK that used to work in our school district, a gal from CA, one from OR, a couple from ID, about 5 from MT and the rest from WA which include the husband of our organizer. He did the hard work - ha.ha. Miss Bethel was just hilarious telling about the stories out in the bush where she now lives and work with about 48 tribes through a hospital. I sure do miss her at our monthly crops she also attended. Then a gal I have not had a chance to scrap with from right here in Spokane was able to attend and she is such a hoot and we laugh so hard and loud that four of us at the retreat got kicked out of a CM consultants home about 5 years ago because we were too loud for her other customers. Sorry to say she was out of business about a year after that. Sleep, about 9 hours in 2 night, late night and early mornings. Accomplished, yes I actually did do some of this. I made 4 sets of the One Sheet Wonder cards and sold 2 sets while there and have orders for two sets after just talking to a compadre at work today. I will post a sample of each into a spot in the next few days. I am in the yellow floral shirt near the center of the picture. Oh yes, Bernard, the monkey, also goes to everything and everywhere with the 4 rebels, and the owner whose head he is sitting upon.
