I picked up some Adirondack Dimensional Pearls paint (Ranger Ink) at Robert’s Craft yesterday afternoon. I started out with a different idea for a card, but this is what I ended up with this afternoon. LOL! I put a few globs of Cranberry (it’s actually a fuschia/pink) ADP on a plate, dropped in a few drops of water and swirled around with a brush, then brushed it onto white cardstock. It’s nice and thick and makes a cool pearly glaze….
There was a headline in one of our papers yesterday… “Utah Forcast – Great if you’re a fat polar bear.”See this link: http://www.sltrib.com/weather/ci_7996853 LOL! It is TRUE, TRUE, TRUE. Yesterday morning I woke up to 4 degrees Fahrenheit AND I had to haul my polar bear bum outta bed and go to work… I would have stayed in bed, but today was my “one day a week at work”… uggggh. (This – and recovering from Wed night’s church event –…
I’m in the middle of a huge project for church… we’re having our quarterly Enrichment night and I’ve planned a super fun Spiritual Spa Spectacular. We’ll have 5 – 10 minute mini classes, a Keynote Speaker and some yummmmmmy goodies. It’s going to be a BLAST! Tonight I am working on thank you notes for our class presenters/speakers and used this simple sketch to plan the card. I’m pretty much sticking to the basic sketch, but it’s turning out soooo…

I love altering things and I love working in our woodshop. This weekend Brent and I spent all day Saturday working on InkStaks & RibbonStaks. We had a variety of 10 to build just on Saturday and it was a super long day. We left the woodshop at 11:15 pm and were just exhausted. While Brent was working on parts of the Staks that require no help from me, I played around with some tools and scraps in the shop….

I wanted to get something new and fun up here on the blog this weekend, but we had a variety of 10 different InkStaks to build this weekend and I just didn’t have time to finish my idea (YET). Anyway, over the past couple of months I have received several email requests for a pic of this tin that I made waaaaaaaaaaay back in June/July and showed very briefly on the CTMH BB’s. (The original post dissappeared because when I…

Merry Christmas Everyone! I am on the road for Christmas… visiting family in Iowa. We got my parents here safely after a long two days of driving across Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska and half of Iowa. I’m a little late posting this fun project because I’ve been so busy getting ready for Christmas ( and playing with the neice and nephews), but I’ve been dying to share it with you all. This project was something I was dreaming up after I…
