Lots to share 2 day!

Wow! I have been on a roll lately, so, I better keep it going.
I have been at the little house, creating, quite a bit lately. Sanity through 2 at home, unemployed...meh.
I needed some lil Thank You cards for my CLUB orders, and, I also slip them into my AVON orders.
I saw this online *let me know if it's one of your creations* and HAD to make these! Too cute!

And, we KNOW how I love multiples!

I also needed some other cards, for my weekly SNAIL MAIL.

Then, I saw another fun item, on the web *let me know if this is your idea*, so, I thought I would make some of these up, for a future class. {Will I EVER use up all my Crushed Curry Cardstock or the Razzberry Lemondade Designer Series Paper?!? I *heart* the CLEARANCE RACK!}

It folds up.....

and, holds 4 cute 3 x 3 cards and envelopes.

Well, I'm off to finish 25 pounds of peaches!

Oh, another fine mess I've gotten myself into!

Thanks for your visit!

Samsung Galaxy SIII + Stampin' UP! = LOVE

When I came home from my very FIRST Stampin' UP! Convention, this past July, I figured it was about time to 'get with the program' as far as technology and 'stuff'. So, since our 37th anniversary was approaching, I talked hubby into getting me a NEW PHONE for my gift *which we rarely do gifts, since we pretty much get what we want when we want or need it*. I have been very apprehensive to get a phone or Ipad that is smarter than me, but, I fell in love with the large screen on the Samsung Galaxy SIII and decided it was 'time' to upgrade.

Now, that I really feel smart, I finally got to do something I've been wanting to for a long time....
Check this out!

And, my little circle punch from Stampin' Up! worked perfectly to punch the holes out for the speaker, camera and light.

Yeah, I LOVE my phone!!!

And, just think---my phone and monthly data package are a TAX DEDUCTION!!!

Yeah, I LOVE 'my job'!

You can too! SIGN UP to join my team today,

and take advantage of the HALLOWEEN SPECIAL!!

A Grand 80th Party!

My mom recently turned 80 years old!

My brothers and I decided to celebrate! My mom and dad ran the El Taco, a precursor to Taco Bell, for 20 years, and people still come up to them and tell them how much the would LOVE some of that El Taco Green Chile!  We made 2 roasters full of the stuff and figured we fed about 50 friends and family, until 2 a.m.!!

See the cute pinwheels and banner on the cake?

And, pinwheels on the card basket. We also had huge pinwheels made of 12 x 12 Designers Series Paper in plants outside.

Here's a pin I made for her to wear. Now, I will attach it to the front of a little mini album for her, with all the birthday pictures in it.

The Polka Dot Paper is available in my online webstore.

Home from my first Stampin' Up! Convention!

I was ONE of 3422 attendees! WOWser!!! What a blast!

Stampin' Up! sure knows how to hold a party! LOL

What a well organized, jam-packed, educational 4 days!

Jennifer, and her downline-her mom, and I flew to Salt Lake City Tuesday, July 17th, and came home Sunday, the 22. We had Tuesday afternoon, and the better part of Wednesday to do a little sight seeing and to network with many other demonstrators. I was blown away at all the CUTE things I saw! The talent of paper crafters is out of this world!

Over the next few posts, I will let you see some of the pictures I took while I was there.

I truly wish you would consider joining Stampin' Up! This company is such a well run company that really treats the demonstrators great! Check out my WEBSITE to see how YOU can join my team. It's only $99 and you get a product discount of 20-40%, PLUS a ton of perks!

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!
