Pet Sympathy

Recently I found a nice set of pet sympathy sentiments. Sadly my friend Tammee lost one of her doggies. This is the card I made for her family.

February Stamp of the Month

Well, it is Easter Eggs, but Mary Gunn inspired me with her blood shot eyes, so I had to go there! How funny is this? Love it!

Chip & Dip

I made this chip and dip bowl in my pottery class. I really like the way it turned out. I got 6 good pieces. Not too bad for a woman who never used a pottery wheel! It was one of those things I always wanted to do.... actually it was HARD! But fun....

Love the 365 idea! I am so happy that I decided to do it with CTMH products.... notice on day 5 I even used two pictures! Some days I might use an interactive flip style... we'll see.

Project 365

I absolutely love this project idea. It is so inspiring to me! I am using the CTMH pocket pages so that I can make this my project. I will probably select a different paper pack each week. The first one is the first 3 days of 2009. (seriously, can you belive it is 2009?) This paper pack is "Aspen."

Along the bottom is journaling. I cut two 4x6 pieces of paper and then two 3 3/4 by 2 3/4 colonial white sheets that I corner round. I pasted two on each 4x6 piece after I wrote the date and did some distressing with ink. On the left page (top) I made my own snowflake out of liquid applique.

Journaling is absent on the 4th as I decided to use a different picture. Our 3 year old lab got a gash along her side and had to be stitched.... so I have a pic of her with her stitches and cone head..... LOL Oh and today I had to get the boys at different times for their back to school after THREE weeks off photo! Hope you are inspired! I know I am.

I love dogs!

I hadn't realized what an important picture I took here until I saw it later! My dear friend Danielle made this counted cross stitch for me in 2008. It is amazing, as is the fact that we own 3 of these doggies! Hehehehehe. Also in the picture is a sleigh that my grandpa Cunningham made before I was born.... he died in 1972 and was a sheet metal working for the railroads. I have two of these and I just LOVE them! In the middle is a card box that i made to keep our Christmas cards in.... I don't think Mike looked at a single card this year. Poor guy, too much on his mind I guess! Also in this photo is a china santa on sleigh that was made in occupied Japan.... so circa de late 1940's..... they are all meaningful objects for me! =-)
