A Different Christmas Poem (Revised)

this is beautiful and amazing  thank you for all you do

christmas cards

the holidays creep up  and gee i'm behind with these  but here are a few cards a couple of gift card holders for this year.  the card with the ornaments were done using the cuttlebug  embossing folders and the reindeer was done with the cuttlebug for embossing and the deer cut with the cricut  and the trees are scallop circles cut into 1/4 and have some stickles on them, the purple one is just scraps  the stockings are actually left over gift card holders from last year

gonna TRY to post more often

so lets start with  handsome fur children and move on to halloween then my first and last tile/grout job and then last to my thanksgiving table and the pilgram hats i made for each place setting and then forgot to put on the table...

i resemble some of these remarks!!

Been awhile

have been busy working on the last of the Alaska album.   am hoping to finish it up in the next little while, am on the last city then just have to go do the memorabilia and a little bit of the prep stuff.  what i thought would be two albums is now three and i refuse to let it be more.  NO NO  NO!

i believe the ants here think it's already summer,  i've seen way too many of those dang things lately  both inside and out.. nagging little buggers.

well nothing to tell so  i'll be back when i  finish the trip albums....

HAPPY 2010 to all

Another fresh new year is here . . .
Another year to live!
To banish worry, doubt, and fear,
To love and laugh and give!

This bright new year is given me
To live each day with zest . . .
To daily grow and try to be
My highest and my best!

I have the opportunity
Once more to right some wrongs,
To pray for peace, to plant a tree,
And sing more joyful songs!William Arthur Ward~


i started my new yr with the usual 3 cups of cofffee and this jewel i stumbled upon and decided to try it,  LOVED IT!!!  i liked the maple sauce yumm    yummm   YUMMY please try it i think you will like it too.  

today's game plan is to get more painting done, then i can move on to looking at carpet and furniture and accessories. the colors chosen are way out of my color zone,  no green no purple!!!!  (well there will be some small purple accessories don't worry) the color scheme is chocolate and teal. cross your fingers and think good thoughts for this room.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Recipe for a Happy New Year
Author Unknown

To leave the old with a burst of song
To recall the rights and forgive the wrong;
To forgive the thing that binds you fast
To the vain regrets of the year that's past;

To have the strength to let go your hold
Of the non-worthwhile of the days grown old;
To dare to go forth with a purpose true;
To the unknown task of the year that's new,

To help your brother along the road
To do his work and lift his load;
To add your gift to the world's good cheer,
Is to have and to give a Happy New Year.


wishing you a happy healthy new year
