Another Day, Another Card

Today's challenge was to make a card, adding dimension at least two different ways. Here is a card I made for my grandson, for Back to School. It has cuttlebug texture and the backpack is pop-dotted.

Also in the news, we bought a little wading pool for the grandkids and Luna and Dallin enjoyed it this afternoon. Wow, we have an exciting life. Luna is also spending the night with us. She's a sweetie.

365 Cards Challenge: Keep it to yourself Tuesday

Hi. Today's challenge is to make a sympathy card without the sentiment (words) on the outside. It's hard to see it, but the flower is very lightly chalked with pink petals and a yellow center.

We went and saw Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. When I read the book it knocked my socks off, and the movie was terrific.

From 365cards I found this challenge: make a card inspired by "Twilight" (the book and the movie). It must have black base or background and red paper, rhinestones or glitter. The scan doesn't show it very well, but the words are from Doodlebug sugar- coated paper in black.

Blogging with or without photos

Hello, Everybody.

I've discovered I can upload photos from internet explorer but not from Foxfire. This makes no sense to me whatever, but there ya go.

Here at the Place, as we like to call it, we have been working very hard. The floors are done, the painting is nearly done, and Dave has planted a garden. If I can find his camera, I can put up some pics. Heh heh, I guess I'll do pics tomorrow.

Anyway, in the news today is that I think you should all join facebook. I keep up with Trent and Nathan there, at least somewhat.

Also in the news is that Dave has a new job. He will be starting it next week or the week after. It is in a town about an hour an a half away, but get this: they pay him while he commutes plus they pay him for mileage. With our hybrid car, he will even make money on the way there and back. So we can stay here, in our happy little home.

Now all you kids who never call--that's OK, because I don't really like phones anyway. But I would love to get emails to see how you are all doing.

Love, Love!
