Valentines a Little Late

Paula created some really cute Valentines with hearts and we all put our own spin on them!

Birds and Bees

With a theme of  "Birds and Bees", we came up with some great cards! Marge designed bird cards using Stampin'Up Simply Sketched Stamp set.

Bee cards were designed by Paula and I.  Large bees cut on the Silhouette along with layered flowers were used with various embossed backgrounds. 

Quilted Cards

Last Friday we decided to try some quilted cards. They were both fun to design and easier than we thought! I decided to kill two birds with one stone and do Christmas star quilt cards. Susan designed the butterfly one. When Marge handed us a bag with 50 strips of paper in it, we thought "oh right". But, once we got started, we loved it! She also designed the nautical quilted card.

Christmas Tag Swap

Every year we do a Christmas Tag Swap in November. Each person makes up kits containing all the pieces to a Christmas Tag. We swap all the kits and have lots of new tags to put together! Of course there are complaints about some tags having too many parts, but lots of fun is had by all!

Paige's Personal Christmas Workshop

My grandaughter, Paige got to spend the day over here to make her Christmas cards and some utensil holders for the Christmas table.  We also baked lots ofChristmas cookies so it was a great day full of accomplishments! The utensils were cut from an adjusted fry box Silhouette file.

 She loves embossing and picked out a similar card to try. Of course grandma had to get her an embosser for Christmas...and a few folders!

Thanksgiving decor

My grandchildren made the decorations for the Thanksgiving table. Paige made the owl napkin rings with Duck Tape and owls cut on the Silhouette.  Crys and the boys made the Turkey pipe cleaner and cork place cards. Both came out great and added a lot to the table! Oh and I made the Turkey Platter with salami, cheese and crackers.

Christmas Cards almost done!

Some of us had to finish up our Christmas card goal and were lacking behind. Here are some we came up with! Robbie wanted to do these "JOY" cards so Margie cut the shapes on her Cricuit.

 These were my cards using the Stampin' Up Bright and Beautiful Stamp set and Cherry Cobbler cardstock.
