A Bunch of CAS Cards and a Gift


This lovely beauty arrived in the mail this last week.  It is a kitchen towel and card made by Ann Merry.  Ann is so talented and I covet her kitchen towels.  She has sent me one every year for the last three years and I love every one of them!  Isn't the card cute too?  She is amazing!

I was talking on the phone with Sue Worthington (IrishGreenSue on SCS)  last night and I made a bunch of cards while I was talking to her.  I think we were on the phone an hour, but for some reason she inspired me.  My neck still hurts this morning!  Thanks for the Inspiration Sue!!!  Here are the cards I made yesterday (warning - there are a lot of them!). 



Here is another....




And another.....




And another....



And another....

And this one I made in the morning...



I actually made several more, but I am running out of time this morning - got to get ready for work.  Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!  I will be making cards can you believe it?

Hugz, 

Nancy

  1. You are giving that ornament punch a work out LOL! Great mix of cards using it! Think the first one is my favorite - loved the punched out image, the musical score and the darling bows you added.

  2. Aren't you a fortunate person to be receiving this pretty towel..and a pretty card, too? Very sweet person, I'd say.

    Your cards are super. I didn't see the gorgeous, purple one on SCS and I LOVE that color and it is so elegant and royal looking.

  4. Wow, did you do all of these in an hour? They are all awesome and all have their own special appeal. You accomplished so much. Beautifully done. I love you towel too. So much pretty details on it. You can't beat a pumpkin and pumpkin pie image.

  6. well, well, Nancy, just look where the muse took you and these lovely Christmas cards. Since purple is my very favorite color, I'd have to say it is my favorite, too.

    I had a peak at SARK's books over at the 'river...how wonderfully inspiring...loved the titles. And definitely on my list to peruse at my favorite thrift...

  8. Bless your heart for being able to talk on the phone and do something else at the same time! I have a feeble brain, unable to do that. And I definitely can't craft while drinking wine; I lose all focus and creativity!

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!
It's time for the New Release Blog Hop at Dude Time Doodles ! I am thrilled to show off Elmer Elf - just one of the four new images. I love them all and plan to make Christmas cards with every single one of them. Be sure and pick them up soon in the store if you like them because all the Dude Time Doodles Images will be retiring in the next few weeks - sniff, sniff! If you came to my blog from Sharon's amazing blog you can continue on to Mags who has another wonderful creation to show you. Dude Time Doodles blog hops are easy as you can hop on at any point and just continue around. Be sure and leave comments because one of the DT members is the mystery host/hostess and one of the commenters on their blog will win free images from the store. Hugz!!

A Bit of Tea, Horses, and a Cowboy

 I love when my children follow in my footsteps and beyond (only the cool footsteps, of course).   My daughter, Allie, has developed a love of tea.  She sent me this picture over the weekend of her having tea in her newly remodelled bedroom.   She was drinking Breakfast in Paris tea in one of her favorite thrift store mugs.  This is my ticket to the T-day gathering over at Elizabeth's blog .  To join us, all you have to do is have a drink related post (can be any type of drink).   The neighborhood horses have been gathering in our backyard for some reason. Our horse refuses to come up near our house because the lady who owns all these horses gives her much better treats.  They all jump the fences and visit everyone.  The mule in the picture is actually named after me because I named one of cows after the neighbor (he paid me back - lol). I gave them apples when they came on Sunday, and they have come back every day since - lol....
