Part Deux...More cards on the way for you!
So…I suppose any time you try to do something new, there is going to be a learning curve. I have had my iPad for a year now. This year, for Christmas, Tom and Mike gave me a keyboard. It makes composing sooooo much easier! But then I was trying to figure out an easier way to post. Going directly to Typepad would only let me do html…not rich text. Then I found a Typepad app in the Apple store. Let’s see if I’m okay with how this works. Right now, all the pictures seem to end up at the bottom of the post, but for now…that will have to do. Maybe I can go to my desktop to re-arrange. A couple of posts ago, when I was crocheting hearts, I used a piece from the My Mind’s Eye “Love Me” 6″X6″ pad. Well, one project was definitely not enough. I love the whole pad. Since I’m not sure that I can separate the pictures, I will just list them! The first card was made with vertical strips of the patterned paper, and I pulled out one of my paper arts flowers out of my stash, added the K&Co. brad and a bit of ribbon and vintage lace. I left it blank so that I can choose the sentiment for the receiver. The second card is pretty simple, but I like
Valentine's Day is coming and I'm not letting any moss grow under my seat!
Love is in the air...and has me "hooked"!
My little Christmas report for you!
Aren't these just the cutest little faces ever? This is what happens when you don't have little kids at your house anymore...you start making cute faces to hang around!
I love Disneyland at Christmas time!
We actually have one…hanging in our kitchen. But I should have had one that I personally pay attention to. Maybe if I had made one myself…maybe then I would have been paying more attention to where the time had been escaping to. It always happens like this, and I, by the sin of omission, have let Christmas sneak up on me. You would think that after 55 years I would be accustomed to the routine, but noooooooo! I now have less than two weeks before my time is up and Christmas has been reduced to little more than a happy memory. We have big things planned this week. Tomorrow, Megan, Jake and I are going to Disneyland to get swallowed up into the Disney Christmas Spirit. We have passes, Jake is in town and we haven’t been there since before Halloween. All day Wednesday – and probably into Thursday – I will be wrapping presents…for someone else. Friday we start our baking madness, which will continue through Saturday afternoon, with a brief intermission for me to go usher at “How the Grinch Stole Christmas” at the Old Globe Theater in San Diego. I’m so excited for that! Sunday is time for “Sister Friendly” during sharing time in Primary. My Primary kids are absolutely wonderful! I need to bake or make them some sort of special treat.
