Horizons and Katie

Here are some cards I made to send with Katie to show at her JumpStart Party at the end of this month. She has signed on as a consultant for CTMH. How great is that! So I'm helping her out (being a good upline) and making cards with the new stampset called Horizons that can be found in the 2011 Spring/Summer Idea Book. Colors used were: Colonial White, Cococa, Cranberry and Desert Sand. I also used Colonial White and Cranberry accents. I used waxy flax on the 3x3 card and the insides of the buttons.

The card sizes are 5x7, 4.25x5.5 and 3x3. I used the patterns from our great card making books. I hope I have inspired you and I also hope these inspire Katie's new customers!

Another Simple Card

I used our Wishes Card Confidence Program for the pattern of this card. So easy to use, because all of the dimensions are figured out for you. This is Delightful Dots found on page 53 of Wishes.

Supplies used were:
Cardstock: White Daisy, Blush, Pear, Hollyhock and Goldrush
B&T: Sophia
Mocha Mini Pearls
Stampsets: Fill in the Blank, Say it in Style (retired)

My Snow Baby

We had about 4 inches of new snow yesterday. Lucy decided this morning that she would go out exploring. I don't know if she ever found what she was looking for, but she picked up a bit of snow in the process.

What would I do without her to make me smile!

I've Been Gone Too Long!

I'm sure you are wondering what an oven has to do with anything, but I guess I am using this as a new beginning. The guys installed my new oven (Christmas present from my dh) today. Mine was 35 years old and really wasn't all that great any more. I hadn't realized that I had been gone so long from the blogging world. When the diagnosis of cancer was put in front of me, all life stopped except for my health and family. But I am coming back, going forward and getting a little excited to do some cooking again.
