And I’m back! Ready to share another fun Valentine. Because this is a fun valentine, I decided to have a little fun with the color of the ape. I’ve actually seen the ape image I used on this card is multiple colors....the traditional brown or gray, but also bright pink, blue and purple. But I… Continue reading I’m Ape Over You
Our weather last week was unusually warm....in the 70’s! So I thought maybe Puxatawny Phil, the famous Groundhog in Pennsylvania is right and warm weather was on it’s way. Until we got to this past Saturday....that 70 degree weather became 32 degree weather. So in hopes of bringing back the warm weather, I thought it… Continue reading Feels Like Spring!

I’m sure you’ve heard the phrase “It just wasn’t meant to be”. Usually that’s said in times when things didn’t work out as planned or something that you hoped would happen but just didn’t.

I almost didn’t buy this… Continue reading Stinkin’ Sweet
When I was getting ready for last Card & Chat class, I decided to break out the butterflies. We did some watercoloring using Aqua Painters and ink pads to make this butterfly card that I blogged about last week.

When you think of Valentine’s Day, what colors immediately come to mind? Ruby Red?, Pale Pink? Bright Pink? Powder Pink? Cranberry Red? Maybe a little white to go with all that red and pink? How about green? Green’s not on your Valentine radar? It wasn’t on mine either, but Soft Sea Foam Green was one… Continue reading Not Your Traditional Valentine
It was my oldest daughter’s birthday this past Wednesday....I can’t tell you how old she is because a Mom never tells her daughter’s age on any kind of social media...unless that Mom wants to see an exasperated look on her daughter’s face along with a rolling of the eyes.
