Retirement Living

Retirement Living can be an adjustment for anyone and you sure don't want to miss any visitors. I made this for a lady to hang on her door at her new home. It is complete with a post it pad and a pen and a little clip, so she will not miss anyone stopping by to see her.

This paper is from the Sweet Pea DSP and I also used Choc Chip card stock and ribbon.

Stamp Club

This was our May Stamp Club project: A Flower for all Seasons and So Many Sayings

I used Choc Chip, Old Olive, Real Red, Close to Cocoa and Whisper White for card stock and Choc Chip ribbon and linen for the tie. Also Real Red brads, a piercing tool, the square punch and window punch made this project quick to put together.

A similar idea came from Chat Wszelaki on Stampin Connections
Stampin Connections is a resource we share among demonstrators for ideas to share with our customers....such a valuable tool and so many ideas available.

The card holder itself is just and 8 1/2 X 11 piece of CS scored at 5 and 6 on the top and the 1 1/4 and 3 1/2 on the side and folded up to form the pockets. The 1 inch strip is cut off at the bottom fold and ribbon is around the spine. Hope that is helpful.....thanks for your interest.

Altered Soup Can

Baby Baptism

This card is for a little baby boy's baptism. I used the Sweet Pea DSP and bashful blue ribbon with Chocolate chip CS. Everything else is stuff I have had over the years.

Nooka

I didn't know I was going to have two grand puppies in the same week. But Braydon must have felt that if his sister got a puppy, he was going to also. So Nooka is a Rhodesian Ridgeback that was adopted from Homeless Pets. Yes, her ears stay this way, too cute!

Britney and Mowgli

Is this the sweetest little face you have ever seen.....well he is a sweetie too! This is Mogali, he is a Yorkie. And he belongs to my daughter. They came to visit gma and I fell in love with him
