Hey Friends! It’s been a CrAzY week this week. I worked a couple of days extra and finally ALMOST got caught up at work. YAY! Did some spring cleaning @ the house and finally straightened up and cleaned up my pantry. Went to the cardiologist and had a good visit… I don’t have to go back unless I start having the same issues that I had going on last year again. Dr said that my heart sounded good and my…

I was going to try to use a “Chalk Popping” technique on the card but realized I needed to think up something else when I peeked at my chalks and saw that I only had pastel colors… so I pulled open my…
Happy Tuesday Inky Friends! Sadly, today is our last sketch with the awesome Kimberly Crawford, but I really had fun with this one. It’s a simple, straightforward sketch, but I had an idea almost immediately and created my card last TUESDAY, which is NUTS for me. LOL! Usually it’s Saturday night and I’m stressing about it. hehe! Anyway.. moving on… Here’s today’s sketch: I played around with the Whispering Wings stamp set and decided to go with something a little…

Hey friends! I am so sorry that I am so late posting this! I completely spaced it. Brent took half of Friday off to hang out with me and then his bro called and invited us to drive down to Bryce Canyon with him and his girlfriend on Saturday. (Which was oodles of fun, btw, but my knee learned new meanings of the word “pain”. LOL!) By Sunday I was totally not in the crafting zone and remembered this morning…

Happy Easter, Friends! I hope each of you had a pleasant and blessed Easter yesterday! Brent and I enjoyed a peaceful and quiet day together. We listened to LDS General Conference and visited with each other. It’s been a long week and so it was nice to just chit chat and hang out together. 🙂 Brent made the most DIVINE chicken for dinner… Parmesan Crusted Chicken with a Sage Butter sauce and roasted rosemary garlic potatoes on the side.. nom…
Sorry for the delay in posting this third reveal. I’m back on track now and just waiting for one more set of treats to come in via email.

Anyway… We will have one more reveal after this one. I also need to apologize because I failed…
