Card Making



What a blast. I made three cards and got a stamp for the $12 it cost to go to the class. I think there is at least 2 classes next month and then in October there is a retreat I won't be going to. I figure I have to have equipment to take before I can go.

There's a building on fire between the class and home. I saw the smoke on my way to class and called 911. You have to press 0 if it's an emergency. That just blew my mind. It's 3 hours later and the road is still closed and the fire still burning.

I worked on my new cross stitch chart today. No pic tonight because I've got a few more hours of stitching on it before I head to bed. Will post one in the morning.

Finished!



I'm finished with my daisy chain elephant and am happy dancing away. She was a UFO from before I moved to Idaho over 2 years ago. Tomorrow I'm starting a new kit from Dimensions called North American Beauties and will try to post a pic of the kit. I got my paper trimmer today from Amazon.com and tomorrow will be my card making class. I'm pretty excited over it. Can't wait!

A backstitching we will go


As of 2:36am I'm all done stitching on my Daisy Chain and am left with the backstitching. I love blackwork so back stitching should be done today I hope. I was thinking, I have Andi's school thing this morning and card class tonight but just remembered that the card class is tomorrow. I gotta run am already late picking up the other two girls.

Humphrey's Corner


I love these elephants. I'm hoping to finish Daisy Chain today. I should at least get everything but the back stitching done. Well everything but the border that goes around them which I skip. I'm trying to just work on one project till I finish it so I hopefully finish a few.
