100 years old !!

I made this card today , it is for my dad ! This coming week he will be 100 years old ! It is so hard to believe that he is 100 ! My parents live in their home still and have a live in caregiver. My dad was a farmer and he loved every aspect of farming . He also loved working with wood and creating furniture ,frames and all kinds of wood treasures !

I made this card with Glitz Paper from Altered Pages . Love the paper and all of the designs ! Be sure to check out the web site for all kinds of paper craft goodies. There are kits ,stamps,collage sheets,tools and embellishments !

The card has die cut frames for the center , I stamped & embossed on the top one. The numbers are also grunge paper die cuts and sprayed with Glimmer Mist !

Have a fabulous day everyone & thanks for stopping by ! I love comments !!

Cards & More

      I have been busy creating a lot of cards this past week. Will post some pic's of some of them !

Paris birthday card

I could  get lost in creating cards, my studio is a giant mess from it all !! A little late , but this is one of the Valentines day cards I created. I love flowers , so I guess you will always see a lot of flowers on my cards !

More flowers , added to a vintage wood hanger , holding vintage papers & such ! I have this listed in my Etsy shop

Notice the sweetest ever little hand  crochet bag , actually my mom made that quite a few years ago when I had her make up  a bunch of them for a project ! Can hold a little treasure !

My sister lives where you can actually go into a store & buy something !! Yes I do have stores where I live , but not very many and not filled with the things I love ! I had her pick up some fabric for me for some upcoming projects! Is there nothing better to look at then an adorable "pile" of fabric ! So a big thanks to my sister for getting this for me !

Hope everyone is having a great weekend ! A little up-date on my last post ... the little doggie my son-in-law rescued from the cold is doing great and is now there new addition to the family. The kids love him !

Delight

I have been busy doing a lot of paper crafting , this banner is a distressed look with vintage book pages for the folded flowers. Spelling out DELIGHT , I love that word ! Hanging it would be a wonderful reminder of what a delight it is to have such a blessed life, or as a reminder we should be a delight in others lives! I will be listing this banner in my Etsy shop hopefully this evening when I get time !

Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart. Psalms 37:4

I have been gathering up some books to read and study . I have already started on Psalms 91 , an awesome book for anyone to read ! I do have to admit that I am a "bookaholic" . But these I hope to get through in Jan and Feb .

And in my quest to eat better I also have some "food" books to pour over ! Last year I tried my hardest to buy organic foods & I also had a garden, in order to eat healthy.... I said .... I tried. I still have room for improvement , but I am determined to be more responsible even when I purchase things to think twice as to where it came from , I would rather buy handmade and support someone in there efforts than a big corporation or shipped here from who knows where . Hope your week is fabulous and blessed ! Leave you with some cards I also created.
