Vacation Time again!

I really shouldn't be here typing at the moment. I mean, where are my priorities?! I have to pack for a vacation but yet here I sit. ;) This is the kind of vacation that requires a lot of work. We are going to be staying in a sleeper cabin for the next week (leaving on Monday!) and so that means getting bedding, towels, pillows, food, and the clothing ready to go. No small feat, that is for sure.

I guess I will just use the excuse that I have to wait for the laundry to get done. And I will type fast.

Did you all have a great holiday (US people anyway?) We had a wonderful time, spending the day first of all at a parade, then with friends with tons of food of course. We saw fireworks on the 3rd.

My newest creation will probably not be in my shop for another week, but I am going to show it to you anyway. I used the same paper as I have before in other cards, just a new look. The color combination is wonderful! The orange paper with flowers is so fun, and it has been a long time favorite.

Have a great week...I will see you all soon!

Here it is!

This is the card that I am giving away! Today is the big day of my Anniversary, so I thought it would be appropriate to post the card today. Take a look...all you have to do is comment here on my blog and in a week I will be taking all the people who took the time and find a winner!

I used the paper that I photographed for an earlier post, and I love how it turned out. The paper is awesome! Of course it helps that I love orange! Since I was down in my scrap room making this card and a wedding card I needed, I got sucked into making more cards. ;) (It's hard to stay in the house these days when it is so nice outside!) The paper was calling my name I guess! Then the clouds went away, and the photos got taken. Of course the editing of the photos took awhile too, but...I will be listing more fun cards in the next few days! Yay!

Have a great day everyone!

Oooh I get to play!

I just made a recent trip to my local scrapbook store. I tell ya, it's really hard not to just grab 2 of every single paper there!! I try an hold off going...I know how much money I would spend if I go more often. ;) There is an advantage though. When I finally do get there, I see a whole new sets of paper that I just have to have! Ooooh Cosmo Cricket, Basic Grey, Crate Paper, PebblesInc, and oooh, what's that? DreamStreetPapers, never heard of it, but love it! It's like a kid in a candy store!

So here is a sample of some of the lovely paper that I picked up. I am itching to get to my table and have some fun! Looking for that spare time...well, ok, I admit, I'll find time! Even if it's not "spare!" ;)
