small wonder...

Its a small wonder I am sane! I guess I am not really... I should have taken today off and relaxed on the couch all day. But of course nope not me! I have to catch up on days worth card making and sewing... and I am happy with what I got done! Take a look at Some Sweet Treats to see what I have been sewing... It was pouring rain a little while ago..I am hoping it will brighten up for tomorrow! Thanks for looking have a great night.

oh ya......

My hubby and brother in law have a thing about cars...mostly hot wheels...to say they collect them might be an understatement. My hubby has a tiny room for them....oh ya its that bad! so of course you would think I have a ton of car stamps...Michelle has a few really cool ones ( look back at the posts you know you want too) but I just got my first one a few weeks ago...here is my first card with it! The Camaro is truly his fave car....we know what is going to be on his birthday card...don't we!!

he's a dude..

This guy is a dude....I would like to give him a fun background...maybe he is just coming home from school and he is off to hung out with his skateboarder friends! He looks like a boarder right?? Oh well he will be cute for any of the boys in you life!

No words..

I have no words! Not on the card...but if you were in my head...watchout! I have been thinking lately that sometimes the less you say the bigger your voice...silence can be the best way to go! I made this card thinking that exact thing...maybe she has nothing to say and that says volumes!! Thanks for looking we are back from out 4 day vacation and we had a great time! It tried really hard not to rain for us...just a few sprinkles! Have a great day I hope you see sun at your house!

What the what

OMG So lets talk Mothers Day...This was Michelle's card for Kathy!! Really?? Ok I think we are done...I don't think we will need Michelle to make any more cards ever again...


Now that I am over that...Michelle I hope you are still making cards...Do I need to tell you that Kathy loved this card! It is still on the mantle! My girls and I are in Whistler for a dance Competition...They are doing so well! We get a nice getaway as well!

sometimes we forget..

Yep...sometimes we forget to be nice to the people around us....You just assume that they will be there...so you can treat them any way you want to...Nope that is not the way it goes! So remember to use your manners and hey saying "pretty please with a cherry" on top doesn't hurt either...Right? If you can't say it at least send them this card!!

Blow up...

Could this blow fish be any cuter? I know, I know... I say that everyday but this little guy was a cheap $1.29 stamp and he has to be up there with my faves!!! I had the background paper a while ago and wished I had bought more at the time... how many times has that happened right? Well I found it again!!! So excited!!! I have to thank the paper gods! I also found some cool things in the bridal section that I am hoping will be fun to use on my cards! Kathy got the cutest BBQ guy when she was in Seattle...wait till you see him!! Thanks for looking!

Sad news..

My Father in Law's brother passed away...I had only met him once....it was enough to make me sad. He was a very nice man and he has a wonderfully caring wife. They both made a huge impression on me and my girls and He will be missed. I know the rest of the family is sad as well. Harder that they live in Montreal and none of us will be there to say our goodbyes. We will miss you Bucky...

I don't know what I would do..

I almost ran out of $$ on my Starbucks card...OMG! I know what you are thinking...what would she do??? I had that thought myself.... It might have been the end of me..Yes it would have.. Sometimes walking from the dance studio to the corner Starbucks and getting a tea..a very large tea... is the only thing that keeps me sane! All I can say is I love it a latte!! I have since had it refilled and all is fine... and yes I am off to get that tea right now!

Glad we are Friends

I am so glad that all the kids in our family are so close and see each other so much! I know that lots of families don't have that and I am grateful...I have to thank our mom and Dad for that they have always told us how important it is to keep everyone close. Glad we are all friends!
