Thanks for the RAK

Hello Everyone! I just wanted to post this to show how kind people can be. I received these items in the mail. I had been RAK'ed!! For those who don't know RAK stands for Random Act of Kindness. I am a member of the website Scraps of Color and they have several groups tha you can join and RAK is one of them. It really makes me feel good to receive surprises in the mail or in person. This RAK came from Susan Davis from Blacklick, Ohio. Thanks for making my day Susan!
So until next time, stay tuned, you never know when you might be next . . . . .

Let's Hear It For The boys

Hello Everyone! It has been a real, real, real long time since I've been here. Sometimes life happens and the things you want to do are put on the back burner for other things that has to be done. It's not always bad things happening and in my case it's not bad things. The Lord is blessing my with some changes in my life and I thank Him. In all that's happening, I was told I needed to have more masculine cards. I am trying to make more. It's not easy to find masculine things for cards or even samples of masculine cards, but I'll just adventure out on my own and see what I can come up with. Hope you like these and as soon as I can, I'll make some more and post them. So until next time . . . . .

Practicing With Digitals

Hello Everyone!!! Hope all is well. It has been really hot here, but I've still had to get out in it to handle all the necessary things in life. Believe me, I don't look forward to going outside. I'd rather stay in and make cards, but after all the running is done, there doesn't seem to be alot of time left to get my creative juices flowing. I've been trying to practice making cards with some of the digital images I have received. I'm really not one to color, but when I see other cards that have been colored, they just look so pretty. Here are three cards I made. Hope you like them. I'm beginning to enjoy my digitals. Maybe if I keep practicing, I'll get better. So until next time . . . . .

I'm Back

Hello Everyone, it's tose famous last words, "I'm Back!" It has really been a month, I think since I have has the chance to make some cards. My friend and I decided we would pick a day and time and go for it. I gathered up my things and went to her house for the day. I arrived about 11:30 a.m. and we worked until it began to thunder around 7:00 p.m. I thought I had better make it home before the rain started. I don't see as well as I use to at night. I arrived at home and had to put some finishing touches to some of my cards. It just felt good to make cards again. I'm not going to say when I'll do this again cause something always seems to come up and my plans are changed. So I will just say I'm going to have more to post as soon as possible.
So until next time . . . . .

Proud Grandmother!!!

Hello Everyone, Just had to drop in and post about my granddaughter's graduation from Elementary school to Middle school. On Tuesday, May 31st, my boyfriend and I left going to Louisville, KY. My son met us when we arrived and took us to the hotel. We went a day early so we could take Amara shopping and do whatever she wanted to do. She was still in school, so we had to wait until school was out and my son went to pick her up. The wait was short, but it seemed like hours. I was so anxious to see her. We don't get to see each other often and it had been awhile. Oh, but it was well worth the wait. We couldn't stop hugging. It seems like it was just yesterday she was a baby. Look at her now. And the handsome guy with her is my son. The graduation was so nice. The students were presented with flowers as they crossed the stage and then they were told to give the flower to someone who made a difference in their life. I was so surprised when Amara gave me her flower. Of course, I cried. I also got a chance to hear Amara play her viola. I am so thankful that the Lord allowed me to go and spent time with Amara and Ray. I can't forget about that special man in my life. He always there for me and I thank him.
Well, I'm going to try to make some cards soon. Then I have a women's conference coming up next week in Louisville and that will give me another chance to see my granddaughter, yeah!!!
So until next time . . . . .

Well, it took long enough!

Hello Everyone! It's been awhile since my last blog but believe me I've been trying to get it done. I usually try to make at least 3 cards at a time before I post them. It has been slow going. I mean I have gotten on my own nerves this time. I find myself wanting to make cards, but time just slips away so fast and before I know it the day is gone and it's time for bed. What is a girl to do? Let me move on. Here are the cards I came up with. Hope you like them. Leave me a comment and let me know. Until next time (and who knows when that will be) . . . . .
