Happy Thanksgiving!

No pictures to go along with my post today. We had our turkey dinner yesterday, just the three of us. It was great to have a nice dinner together without having to be a good hostess. Don't get me wrong, I love having company. It was nice to not have to worry about everything being just so. I spent the day getting the turkey ready for the oven, working on a halloween craft in my room, and then getting everything else ready when the bird was almost done. What a great day! Super relaxing. I should finish the Halloween craft today, so I will post again either later or tomorrow. Hope you are all enjoying your Turkey Day!!!

Take care,

There's something in the air!

Living in Northern Alberta, you come to expect a few things. A bustling oil industry, strong winds blowing across the prairies, and snow in October. We got our first snow yesterday. Yikes, not cool. It didn't last long, it was all melted by the afternoon. Today, we got hit a little harder. It was, to say the least, chilly and windy. Touque and gloves weather. Not too happy, but what can you do? So, I have been in the mood for some Halloween crafts. I made the 'bats on wire' do-dad last week and the card yesterday. After looking on the blogs of the Papertrey design team, I decided I needed to glitz things up a little. I had so much fun making it and putting on the glitter. Need to go make some more. The other day, when Nadia was leaving after our WCMD festivities, the air smelled so wonderful. I remember saying that it smelled like fall, and more specifically, if smelled like Halloweem. I was possitive that I could smell Jack-o-lanterns out on people's steps with candles burning inside of them. I guess that's where the whole Halloween crafting started for me. It got me thinking of Halloween and wanting to make a few things for it. So, I hope you enjoy these latest projects.

Don't forget to keep creating!

More World Card Making Day!

Here are some pictures of the cards I made yesterday! And the yummy pizza. The pizza, by the way, Teri said is even better than the one you get from Earl's!! Yay me!

It was a success!!

World Cardmaking Day has come and gone, and we had a great time! I had Nadia and Teri over to celebrate this wonderful day with me! We spend the day making cards, eating homemade California Shrimp Pizza, laughing and having tons of fun!! I hope all of you out there had a great day as well!

Don't forget to create everyday!

World Card Making Day!!

It's world Cardmaking Day!!! (tomorrow) I have been making cards for about the last
7 or 8 years. I started out with my friend, Nadia. We shared a lot of supplies and wow, those cards were something else. Just like anything you do, your taste, style and ability changes with time. We were so proud of our cards. We used to make each one of our Christmas cards different. So, we were coming up with 20+ designs! YIKES. Needless to say, we now come up with a few designs we love and then mass produce them. Much easier! In celebration of this day, I have invited
Nadia, along with another amazing friend, Teri to join me and we can spend the day doing cards. Hopefully all you other bloggers and cardmakers out there are doing something with your friends who also share this passion!! Hopefully, we will get the chance to take some pictures while we are doing what we love tomorrow, and I will post them!

Happy Crafting!!

It's been a while, I know!!

With the first month of school gone, we are pretty much in our usual routine. We are walking to school close to everyday, but it sure is starting to get cold. Had to break out my new VV Boutique find. I found a great winter coat there a while ago. So, what else has been going on here? Well, we kind of had a new member of the family, but we don't think it is going to work. We got a dog almost a week ago, but he is a HORSE!! We don't have a ton of room in or out and Adam is a little scared of him. So, we think it is better to take him back and move on. What else. Let's see. I have been crafting A LOT! I went to a crop last Friday and got my Christmas cards started. I've been playing with my Cricut and Cuttlebug as well, making some Halloween stuff. I have also been redo-ing my craft room. Once I have it all as I want, I will take some pictures and post them. Well, that is all I can think of right now. Don't want to bore you. Hope you enjoy some of my latest creations.

Take care, keep creating!!

I survived...barely!!!

OK, so maybe it's not that bad. I survived the first week of school fairly unscathed! I did however have a run in with a boy in grade 3. YIKES, so thankful Adam is SOOOO awesome!! The first day went very smoothly, except for the blisters on my ankles from my new shoes. But damn, did I ever look good!! :) I had blisters before I even got to school. Ouch! Not much else new. I really need to get on here more and start posting some more pictures. If you would like, you can check out my profile and portfolio on

Hope you all have a happy week! Keep creating!
