A dreay Monday...

...it's still cloudy and today we are expecting rain and even cooler temps....I already miss Summer.  Fall is likely here to stay and I think I need to get ready.  Luckily, Hubby is preparing as he ordered Firewood which was delivered this morning and will be wonderful in the wood stove on the super cold days.
  As much as I'm not really ready for winter, I do love Fall and I totally LOVE Christmas and will be starting on my shopping very soon.  I love to have all my Christmas Shopping done early, so that I can relax and totally enjoy the holidays.  I also have a lot more Christmas cards to make and will be working more on that in the next several weeks.

  Today, I wanted to make some bright and sunny and was inspired by a card created by Catherine Pooler, my new Stampin' Up Demo.  Catherine is very talented and I am very pleased to have signed up for her Club In-Box.   Catherine is also a member in many of the craft groups that I belong to, and it's been really fun getting to know her.  Here is the video I watched that inspired my card today.  I love this particular designer paper and bought it as soon as I saw it. 




 And here are BOTH together!!



  Both these cards were very easy and fun to make.  The perfect way to add some Sunshine to this dark dreary day.  

   Now, I am off visit my groups and see what everyone is up too!  Have a wonderful day!!

A Little About Me

My Photo
Northeastern, Massachusetts, United States
Purple is my favorite color and ironically - Purple is the Awareness Ribbon color for Fibromyalgia, an illness I personally live with. I had to stop working in 2006 due to Fibro and Degenerative Disc Disease. It's been a tough road at times, but I have a wonderful family and fantastic friends. I am a Mom to two awesome sons (Ages 21 and 26) and a wife and friend to a wonderful Hubby. We live in a tiny coastal community in Massachusetts and have lived here all my life. My hubby and my boys are my whole world and mean every thing to me! I cherish all three of my guys!! I am very lucky to be blessed with wonderful friends. I adore and cherish each of my friends as much as my family! I am an avid card-maker and love all types and stamping, and also love coloring with my Copics. I'm very lucky to have this whole new world on online friends that I've met through my Craft Groups. HUGS TO YOU ALL!!
