Happy Father's Day



Hey All - Happy Friday!!! Man this has been a LOOOOOOOOOONNNGGGGG week. With it being cloudy and rainy all week, makes me kinda miserable. But I'm looking forward to a wonderful weekend, nice and hot. I've been working on Father's Day cards all week, making a few every night. Making sure I have spare cards, for last minute buyers. This year I wanted to make Father's Day a spectacular event, Mother's Day is always such a feast.



So we are taking my Father and older brother out to dinner at "Mi Tierra", in Chicago. My father has been going crazy trying to get a reservation there. Not sure what the big deal is, we make Mexican food at home everynight. But I guess the great thing is, my mom and I won't be cooking... So it's a great day for us too :o)
Enjoy the weekend!

Hi Everyone! Again long time, I go through long periods of NOT posting. Work has really been consuming my time. I know ya'll read that over and over again in my blog, but it's true. If only I can find a way to just stamp all day. Hmmmmmmm.... Yeah, that will NEVER happen, unless I win the lottery. But I do love my job, although very time consuming, I do love working under pressure. That's just crazy me! These past couple of weeks we've been having fundraisers for the Breast Cancer 3 Day. This has been the hardest year ever to raise money, I know I'm on a tight budget. We (DS Mari and SIL Izzy) made tons of Mother's day cards and note card sets, thank you cards and many other things. I've made a ton of new cards, I just haven't had the opportunity to post. So I think I'll try posting pictures here and there. I will try hard to post a picture a day. I don't have all the receipes noted, it's been awhile.


This card was a simple card, a friend fell in love with during one of our fundraisers. She asked me to make a couple of them for her kids teacthers. It's always a great feeling to receive something from your students. I'm not a teacher, but I know how appreciative they are when they receive them. The pattern paper I used was from the DCVW paper school package. Love that set!

I hope you enjoy. I'm not really great a blogging and my English skills are pretty sad. But I do like showing my creations.

ENJOY!!!! Happy Thursday.
