Happy Saturday!
Hope that your weekend is off to a nice start.
I'd love for you to send up a few well wishes or prayers for our daughter's fiance, his dad, and her soon to be brother-in-law. They are preparing to do an ironman tomorrow in Arizona. Ugh! I think that's a 2.5 mile swim, followed by something like a 112 mile bike ride, followed by a full marathon. Did I mention Ugh? Anyway, we'll be cheering them on from Farmington!
So...I'm pretty sure you are all on the edge of your seats, waiting to hear what the 'etc.' is! I won't keep you in suspense. Last night, grandson doggie, and little Sophie doggie decided to take on a skunk. I'm quite certain that you have, by now, figured out the rest of the story. Again, did I mention Ugh? Oh my goodness. It wasn't bad enough that they stunk, but they came inside before we realized that they had battled the stinky critter, and now it stinks in the house too! And...if that wasn't bad enough, Sophie had the 'sickies' afterwards, and THAT stank worse than the skunk smell. Bless her heart, she was a sick little gal last night.
I have a couple of quick projects to show you today.
First, using the pre-colored Doodle Pantry set, "12 Days of Christmas Mini's", and a very sparkly red wreath that was hiding at one of the dollar stores, here is my creation:
This set is so versatile! |
Next, I have a little something I made up with some felt scraps. If DD likes it, it will travel to Colorado next week. If she doesn't, I'm not sure what I'll do with it! Pretty self explanatory....made three of the little felt flowers, die cut a couple of Spellbinder leaves, put them all together, put a back on them, and then a pin back (not pictured).
I have an Itty Bitty Blog Candy for someone!
I was lucky enough to have something in the last Scrap and Stamp Arts magazine, so they sent me a free copy. However, since I subscribe, I now have two copies! Time to share the wealth!
No hoops to jump through - if you'd like the extra copy, just leave me a comment telling me that you'd like to have it. I'll draw one name on Monday, from the comments left on today's post, and send the magazine out on Tuesday!
I'm off now, to do a few household chores. Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope to see you tomorrow! I have a few projects using Inspired Stamps to show you :)
Have a great evening - hugs and smiles,
Patti J.
