Telling You Timothy..Happy Anniversary And I Will LOVE YOU FOREVER :)




Hi Everyone!!!! I played with the Mojo Monday sketch :) ..Loved it..I hope you do too..Today is mine and my hubby's anniversary (he's working)..the life of being a firefighter's wife is that, we can't always be together for our special occasions but even apart I think of him constantly and what an easier way to tell him how much I love him than documenting it on here for everyone to see :) ..If I could shout it to the world I would in an instant :) I love you Timothy..be safe and know that I am thinking of you! ..I'm giving you a huge cyber (((((((hug)))))) ..love you butty ;) 
Happy Anniversary :)
Thank You!!!! Come Again!!!!

Quilting And Loving It :)






Hi Everyone!!!! WOW! I didn't realize that I have been obsessed with quilting for over 2 weeks! I haven't felt like doing anything else but that..I finally got my binding on picture 1 and 3 done. I made the butterfly quilt, it took 25 hours to make. The last picture with the birds I just need to send it off to my quilting lady :) ..all my quilts are for sale except for the butterfly one..that one was a gift :) ..so anyways that is what I have been doing..O and I am getting ready to film my first YouTube videos..more about that some other time but let me just say I am so EXCITED about that :) also thank you! thank you! to whomever ordered off my website..you didn't want any contact so I can't send you a Thank You card but just know that it's what I would have done to show my appreciation! OK..On to the card ..I finally found some mojo! this is all mine baby :) ..my mind went crazy when my hubby and I went and bought some sushi yesterday and our local grocery store..when you buy the rolls it comes with this little grass as decoration..I totally had this idea pop up when I touched it! don't you just love when that happens..Tim was worried that it would smell fishy but after using Dawn dish soap, it was all good :) so what do you think??? I love it :) ...I hope you have a great weekend ..I won't promise to be back because now I am working on my own quilt and it's a frustrating one so wish me luck :) ..
Thank You!!!! Come Again!!!!

Eat Cake NOT Lobster ;)



Hi Everyone!!! my favorite DSP is this one! I absolutely love it! the colors just speak to me .... I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday ..I always find my colors and DSP first and then find an image to work with. Well I saw my Lobster and immediately thought of the pictures I see near Thanksgiving time and the Turkeys holding the signs saying "To Eat Ham"..well this is my sign :) ..it's me.. I get it ..so if you don't ..that's OK :) ..LOL!!! have a great day!!!!

Hearts And A Banner :)



Hi Everyone!!!! I quilted for two days straight and I LOVED IT! I can't wait to show you what I made..hopefully Sunday/Monday time frame :) ...I made this, this morning from Mojo Monday and wow! I took one look at the sketch and thought it was a busy one but I shrugged my shoulders and said it's a challenge all right and off I went..I think it turned out really well..it looks like my banner is crooked but when I look at it IRL it's not..so weird!!! this will be card #1 for next month's class :) ..(I love deciding after I create a card) ....have a great night!!!
Thank You!!! Come Again!!!!
