You picked me!!!

I really like this card. Lots to see... dictionary background... I still need to find an old dictionary!! Thinking about using ours... but it doesn't seem old enough!!! We had an old one growing up. I think it was ancient when I was young.... it must really be an antique now!!! Also, the library card pocket on the front is a cute touch. Yes... I am definitely going to have to try my hand at this card!!

Buttons!! Buttons!!

Love this stamp set. Just got it, and can't wait to create something with it.

Cup of Joe

Dick & Jane

I love the old Dick & Jane. Plus on the "Polaroid". It is just GREAT!!

The Queen & a DORGI?????

Queen Elizabeth II is well known as an affectionate breeder of Welsh Pembroke Corgi dogs; most of the pups she keeps from litters born to her dogs are female. Her sister Princess Margaret had a male Miniature Long-Haired Dachshund called Pipkin who seemed to love the Corgis in quite a different way from their owner -- a litter of seven Dachsund/Corgi crosses was born to one of the Queen's dogs. However, Elizabeth found them appealing enough to christen the type "Dorgi" and arrange for more to be born. (This is occasionally spelled "Dorgie".)




Photographer Norman Parkinson was apparently bold enough to ask how the short-legged Miniature Dachshund could manage to mate with the comparatively taller Corgi and was told by the Queen, "Oh, it's quite simple. We have a little brick."


The Secretary of the Kennel Club at the time of the portrait conflict is supposed to have remarked, "The Dachshund was evolved to chase badgers down holes and Corgis to round up cattle. If anyone loses a herd of cattle down a badger hole, these are just the dogs to get them out."

Card Kits


I made this card from a kit.... I didn't think I would like it.... but, it turned out really well. The butterfly is the best part... don't know if you can tell from the picture... but it has 3 layers, and then a rhinestone head.... then a brad at the top of the Birthday wishes

These next 4 cards are from a little kit that I bought. I was cleaning up my desk and came across them... they are very simple... but, I am glad that I got them done and ready to use!!

Cute Cards!


These are some cards that I made in my new little craft area!! I cleaned up a corner of my garage, and now I go there to be "creative". I have done it a couple of times now, and I think that I really enjoy it!! I just love these Mary Engelbreit pictures... and I was able to incorporate them into my cards... LOVE IT!!!
