Pink Dress Card

WOWSER! It was so windy here yesterday, with gusts well over 50MPH---that is one thing I DON'T like about living in Round Valley! We have had up 105MPH winds, and, have even been a question on Jeopardy, for naming one of the WINDIEST towns in the USA! Yep! We got wind, that's for sure, and, brother....the locals are a bit uneasy with all the winds.... Last year it was windy just like this, and, when the Wallow Fire started Memorial Day weekend.....well, let's just leave it at THE LARGEST WILDFIRE IN ARIZONA.....ugh! As I talk to locals here and there....it's interesting to know that I am NOT THE ONLY one that still has belongings that are not put up yet....I have a HUGE fabric Tupperware tote with all of my photos in it,,,ready to grab, if necessary. Going through something so traumatic as the fire and weeklong evacuation doesn't leave you fast.....
Anyway.....isn't this card the cutest??? I found this on STAMPIN CONNECTION....a website for Stampin' Up! Demonstrators only, with over 234,000 samples from demonstrators all over.
I needed some birthday cards, and this fit the bill perfectly! I want to make more to put into my card stash. I hate it when I--the card lady--don't have the 'right' card for a specific occasion. How sad is that?!?

This was the first time that I tried inking up my embossing folder first, before running the paper through the BIG SHOT with the embossing folder. I {love} my BIG SHOT and the VINTAGE WALLPAPER embossing folder!
I will leave you with one more photo for the day.

I {LOVE} to hang clothes on my clothesline!!! Last Sunday, was the first day for my line drying!
Hanging clothes on the line is so relaxing to me...weird, I know. I just love being a domesticated housewife, I guess! LOL Sad to think that line drying clothes is sort of a lost art....
How do YOU dry your clothes? Please leave me a comment.....I'd love to know!
And, if you have any questions about my card, you can email me.
Have a GREAT Saturday!
Thanks for your visit!

Pink Framed Art

I made this for the 'little house' (my crafting space--see the picture at the bottom of the right hand column). I had found some 'Melon Mambo' bathroom towels and rugs at Walmart awhile back and the lightbulb turned on! LOL I have seen so many CUTE framed art projects that I wanted to make one, too. I have a downline gal making me a fabric companion piece for the bathroom, also.
This will be included in the Little House bathroom decor. If you have questions, just contact me.
My squares are 2" x 2", and I put it in a 12 x 12 scrapbook frame.
I am tickled 'pink' with it! LOL

Thanks to my downline, Jennifer, for her help...it helps to have a second set of eyes!
Hope you have a great Saturday evening!
Thanks for your visit!
