"Lawn Fawn" card class

My dear friend, Jen, signed us up for a class at one of our favorite craft stores to make cards with some of the new Lawn Fawn products ... truly one of the greatest stamp/die lines available.  We made sure to arrive early enough to allow ourselves time to shop and then she surprised me with a gift card too!  She's quite the brat!  Below are four of the five cards we made - the fifth card wouldn't stay open for me to photograph as the inside was a pop-up.  Needless to say, we left very inspired as neither of us has done much paper crafting in the last few months.  With new toys comes new inspiration ...

Yes ... I had to have this set!

New craft toy

I showed Mark a picture of a great glue gun and stick holder and asked if he would make Jen and I each one.  Here is the finished result ... I love it!

Valentine Day treats

It's not everyone who gets a Valentine's treat with their puppy's face on it!  Mark ordered me M&M's with Sammy's face and they are the cutest.  Kelleigh got us each a candy rose and my girlfriend, Jen, gave me a hedgehog plate with cookies and a champagne/chocolate gift.

Fly away ...

Since I have no shortage of fabric it seems, I am making baby quilts for my Etsy store.  Here is the one I just finished ...

February

February has arrived and it is a gorgeous day here in San Diego.  As I planted some new pansies, I realized how grateful I am to have the chance to be home, doing what I love whether it's indoors or out, and for fabulous weather like today. Since it's February, it's time for a seasonal table change ...


While Mark will often bring me flowers, it seems that most never open.  This set of roses are definitely among the most gorgeous I've ever received and have fully blossomed.
