Somebody Stop Me!

I couldn't help but post this last burst of creativity for today. I found this folded butterfly pattern and had to try it out - using a Unity sentiment, I think it turned out super cute. It's hard to tell from the photo, but the "trail" of the butterfly carries through onto the burgandy cardstock. What do you think?

Day Two of Vacation

I had a nice, although very quick, visit with my good friend, Joyce, this morning. She stopped by and brought me some homemade pumpkin muffins, and loaned me some fabulous craft books to enjoy while I'm on vacation this week. Still working on the WCMD Unity challenges. Here's one I did for the "ribbon" challenge.

I'm also getting ready to go to Kansas City this weekend for the CKC Scrapbook Convention that my sisters and I go to every year. It's a weekend filled with giggling, crafting, and SHOPPING! We always make a stop at Kirklands (my sister, Gloria's FAVORITE store), and will also hit one or two new scrapbook stores. We'll meet up with my friends, Joyce and Bunny, for dinner and an evening of sharing our purchases, chatting and scrapping. It's an event I always look forward to and am counting the days!

More cards for Unity challenges

I've got 12 out of 22 challenges complete ... 10 more to go!

T.G.I.F.

It's Friday! Thought it would NEVER get here. I'll be home next week for some quality R&R time. I always love taking a week's vacation during fall just to relax at home, get some projects done, do some fall baking, and pretty much just recharge my batteries. This photo was taken of my grandson LAST year during fall - he LOVED running through the leaves.

I hoping to get some SERIOUS cardmaking done ... and POSTED. I have some GREAT new stamps that I've won from Unity Stamps - what a GREAT company. If you haven't been to their website, you really need to check them out. http://theunitystampco.blogspot.com/ And on Thursdays they have a fabulous forum on Splitcoaststampers and they give away their fabulous stamps to several lucky participants throughout the course of the day. http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/. Let them know I sent you their way.
