St. Patricks Day Card













This is take one of a card that I am working on. I am not happy with it so this is take one. Sorry for the slight blur that camera and I are fighting again.






Here is card option 2 Again not happy with it. I would hate to ditch the pot of gold since I forced a child to make them but.... I am not feeling it. To the left is an alternate bottom. Should I lose the gold? Any votes?

Birthday card I made. I used an SU! stamp set called Fresh Cuts and their precut note card. Ink and paper colors are Riding Hood Red.

No craft today-just a vent

I do have a cool idea for a "borrowed" card project. Also something for the plate princesses next month. But I did not do anything today. I did buy a quilling for dummies book so maybe Lindsey and I can make something other than circles. I was put on a new med yesterday bringing the total to 6. This one seemed to work this morning. I have not spent the day in the bathroom or out shopping from bathroom to bathroom. My blood sugars were under 100. I ate really well carbs were way down. I had almost the EXACT amount of carbs for dinner and a big salad. Why then is my blood sugar UP! I worked out a bit. And still tired, sugar up and depressed. I am homesick again. I am tired of all these meds. Maybe tomorrow will be better. I did not expect a miracle pill. But when you work hard and stick to it all and then the number goes up it is aggravating. That is all. Maybe craft tomorrow. Hopefully at least not exhausted and in a better mood.

Plate for all season


I held my first ever class today. I think we had fun. I probably overloaded them with info. And in true bone head old woman fashion I forgot to take pictures of all their plates. But here is mine. We are going to meet again next month to do a St. Patricks Day one and hopefully a Spring one.

Birthday Card

I wanted to make a card for someones upcoming birthday so I used my new cool stamp set from ebay. The little girl is done with watercolors and then the butterfly was embossed with light blue embossing powder. I love to melt stuff. I am actually just avoiding going to the grocery store and figuring out what is wrong with my sewing machine.
