Good Morning,

The sun is shining and what a beautiful day. Cold but beautiful.

Today's card is one I made the other day. I've been wanting to try this with the Big Shot finally found what I needed to make the sandwich and look it turned out great...

Here I used Taken with Teal, Whisper White. Thoughts & Prayers. I sponged a little blue and brown around the tree.

I was just talking to Tiffany and Brayden is at the living room window calling for the deer to come. He said that he had "num,nums" This is what he calls food (treats). But sadly there are no deer around today.

Good Morning Stampers,

Though right now not sure what's so good about it. I guess if you like snow then your excited about this weather.. Cody and Tasha are suppose to come home this afternoon. Not sure just what they are doing yet. I think they should stay put! I have the radio on listening for cancellations.
How TERRIFIC is it that my blog was chosen by Late Night Stamps blog find of the day. I'm super excited about this...

Today I have another 3-d item to show you.
It's a super cute gift bag (box) . Supplies used: Love Specialty Designer Paper, Basic Black cardstock. 5/8" Pretty in Pink Satin Ribbon. And of course a little bit of bling with the pearls..

Have a safe day out there....
Sherry

Good Morning Stampers,

Feeling creative today? My "special place" is all cleaned :) I spent a good part of yesterday cleaning and rearranging. Hopefully when I want something I will be able to find it. My oh my how things accumulate, do you have this problem too?

Today's project is using the Love You Much set. A nice centerpiece. The container is one that I had, just added raffia, spanish moss. The "flowers" are on sucker sticks. Yorkie and nuggets are inside each "flower". I really like how this turned out. If you click on the pic you will get a better look at the details...

Now today I need to put my creative cap on and get busy. I have a very busy couple of weeks ahead of me.
Cody and Tasha are coming home tomorrow and now I hear there is suppose to be a snowstorm grrr... Something for me to worry about!!
Have a nice day and thanks for stopping by.
Sherry

Good Morning,

I'm having one of those heat wave moments (hours) :(

Ohhh it is so nice to see that sunshine.

Yesterday I made up a CUPCAKE KIT. I noticed these on a few websites not sure who came up with the first one. I used the Love You Much #113756 stamp set Scallop circle punch 1 1/4" circle and 3/4" circle punches. Toothpicks and cupcake papers. So cute! Made me want to bake some cupcakes just to display.
After my heat wave ends I really need to straighten up my stamp room. Soon we will not be able to move in here. I'm running out of space..
Hmmm... wonder what I can create today. Check back tomorrow to find out.
Have a great day
Sherry
