Hello and welcome back to the blog! Today was pretty interesting... spent the day looking at the last minute items to remind my daughter to pack up. The moving truck gets picked up in a few hours and the loading will begin. It will be mostly me and my kid packing the truck, however, we will have extra help to unpack. Then I get to play Nana with my grands during that time.  Wait til you see the last pic for today! 

My Card today is very simple in design. I used the Creative Edges: Lace Die in Rouge cardstock to anchor the white space to the fabulous black and white stripes.  The Delicate Flower Bed stamp set colored with Artist Markers sets A & C look amazing! 

Then you have the Simple Alpha Die in Jet Black cardstock. Along with the card pulled together with some Enamel Dots in Green Fields color to match the leaves on the flowers.  The black and white stripe print is from the Essential Black and White Print pack. 

This is what my granddaughter was doing while I was writing up today's blog.  I gave her a small stack of post its and she had a blast.  

That's it for today... Tomorrow there will be a special message on the blog... I'm taking part in a fabulous blog hop on my other blog. So I hope you will come back and check that out!  God bless and have a great day!

Hello and welcome back to the blog! Today was a shredding day, we went through all the old docs and got them shredded. It made a total mess and two garbage bags later we have less personal info just laying around. The hubby still has to do his desk, and I've got a drawer full, but it's progress.
I also managed to do a live for crafting on Facebook. I keep telling myself to stay on task, but the mind goes elsewhere... just another thing to work on.   I will keep working on the house a bit at a time. By the end of March, I should be moved into the other room, so we can start on the remodel, but I don't know what's going to happen or in what order. Will do what I can when I can. 

My card today features Delicate Flower Bed stamp set, with Fine Alpha Dies and Handmade Tags die too! I used Obsidian Black to ink my images up. I also used  Frosty Pink, Frayed Leaf and Citrus Burst (which seems to be a fav this week).  I ink smudged the colors onto the stamped 5x5 and give my card some color without having to color. I inked up the tag! Then I got to use more Parchment cardstock, I am loving this paper!  I used a blank piece of paper to draw a line on to line up my dies for Awesome and then added tape to grab them all.I ripped the top of the cardstock so that the underlayer would show.  Then place them onto the card. 

Since I shared the links to the products on my live on FB I have also added them below.
