Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!

Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! Heading to MIL for dinner, pies in the oven, and biscuits to bake. Here's a few pictures I meant to post a while ago, I'm taking Jenn's class at Stampassion with my friend Kathy. We had a fabulous day!

A muse Addicts Challenge

I finally did it! A muse Addicts Challenge for this week. Yeah Me!

Glenda's challenge

Here's my 3's challenge from Glenda's Blog, you still have time if you want to play,http://www.papersscissorsrocks.blogspot.com also check out the amuse addicts site the VMAA (virtual meeting of amuse addicts) is this Friday, lots of time to get yourself ready. Stampin & Scrappin Time has lots of amuse images if you need something!

kids are creative

Snow still coming down and a cozy night of stamping was on my mind, warm cider with gingersnaps and ALL my A muse stamps out, here's what we created. A relaxing time to spend with the boys.

Cards for teachers, christmas poster for Santa, the kids wanted to be sure he doesn't forget the animals. Ahhh! Peace

Headshots

So part of our weekend at Seattle was our headshots, and I really look like mine so I changed my profile, Heather was so nice to Photoshop my double chin. :)

I've been diligently working on classes for the 1st quarter of 2009. Here's another holiday card to tide you over.

It's Snowing

We had about a 1/2 hour of lake effect, but it looked so pretty, for about 1/2 hour now all melted, usually I try to get the 1st snow pictures of the kids for my holiday cards but since they were all in school, here's me in the first snow, (wow! I guess i shoulda put on some makeup).

It inspired me to stamp up this little card. Enjoying the snow, reading with cocoa until kids pull in! I think this fits Glenda's challenge, the card is the only thing blue? See Glenda's blog http://papersscissorsrocks.blogspot.com/.

What a Fabulous Time!

I can't wait to meet all of you!

thinking ahead

Halloween is over, I love Halloween and it kind of feels like the day after Christmas to me today. So while I was out raking leaves I kept thinking about the birch trees and I love bare trees at the Holidays. What do you think?
