Recently, my blogger friend Jeanie at Marmalade Gypsy and I were chatting on email and she made a comment in frustration that I thought was a brilliant idea. Christmas was so busy and was going by so fast. We both were lamenting that there was no time for cards when she said "I swear, next …

Autumn Jubilee Cardmaking Fun
I like making cards for friends and family and Autumn is the best time to send some cheer. It is no secret that my favorite holiday is Thanksgiving with the parade, a special breakfast, calling friends and family for cheerful wishes, the aroma of baking turkey and dressing, and a full day of football along …

I've been working slowly on the needlework project, but weekends have become busy! I am not at all sure I am going to finish this in time for the fair this year. I've decided to do the outer section in black, like a cast iron pan. I think this will look great with some black …

Thanksgiving Cards
Stamping cards for Thanksgiving is an annual thing for me. My family would think that Thanksgiving hadn't come if they didn't get a card. I think I started a trend many years ago, as some have been sending them to me for a while now too. Of course, I love the process of making them, …
Quilt and Cards in Online Auction
We are members of two MINI clubs, and the Upstate MINIs of South Carolina is doing a fundraiser this weekend. The beneficiary is the Greenville County Animal Care, a no-kill shelter. You know I am always up for helping animals, so when the call went out for items to donate, I got busy. I combed …
