It's Not the Destination, It's the Journey CPS284

Good Morning,

I've got a sketch and a card to share for Card Positioning Systems. 

Here's the sketch.

And here's my card.

 

 

I used some paper from my inifinite stash; it's by 7 Gypsies. The stamp is from Inkadinkado! The card and the sketch are very simple and I'll be using the sketch over and over again for clean and simple cards!

 

I hope you have a great weekend. I'm off to a Women's Conference with my church friends this weekend.  But I will be watching the Ducks play the Washington Cougars on Saturday night and working on a project. I better get at my embroidery!!

 

GO DUCKS!!

 

So little time, so many cards to make!!

 

Hugs,

Lorelei

There will be flowers!!

Boy I sure love the lovely days!! We got to take advantage of one over the weekend and planted our flowers in the pots, barrels and flower box. I planted my herb barrel with rosemary, thyme and oregano, it looks so tasty. 

Oops!! Wrong picture, it's so close to looking my barrel I got mixed up (ha). Well anyway, we'll have a lovely yard when the Osmocote and Miracle Gro do their thing. We use the slow release Osmocote and then fertilize with Miracle Gro once a week and if the sun participates (hmmm) and the snails go to the neighbor's, we get lovely full pots. But, enough for the commercials.

We've been waiting and waiting for Chris to get his leave and come home to us, but the Navy really needs him right how to clean the barracks and go on watch so we wait some more. Please continue to pray for him and all our service members especially at this time when we remember what they have sacraficed for our freedom.

I am working on creating a travel collage on one wall in my studio.  I've made this printer's tray to be included among the photos and other things that are special to me and our family. The 7 Gypsies tray has a bit of Graphic 45 paper, some Tim Holtz tape on the outside frame and the rest is pictures of us in our travels!! 

I hope you like my new look! I needed a facelift. I'll be sharing some cards I've made, some fun I'm having with organizing and couponing and all the other things that have been keeping me from blogging. Like so many of you, I have too many interests!!! I will never be bored.

Blessings,

Lorelei

Thank you Kendra

I got the inspiration for these cards from Kendra Wietstock at Kendra's Cards. I follow her blog here. She is such a sweetie and makes great cards. So.... I borrowed (with permission) her design idea and I've made 4 cards for my Simply Cards class on Oct. 12th,  from 1 pm to 3 pm at Krop Paper Scissors.  Both of these cards are made with 7 Gypsies, which has some pretty awesome papers.

I've been playing around with my blog while I'm taking an online Blogspot Design class from Jessica Sprague

It's a bit over my head and has made my brain expand (very slowly, I might add), but I love it and if you want a blog to display or share yourself, you should check it out.

I hope your day is going super and you are accomplishing what you set out to do today. Remember it's never too late, John Gielgud at age 71 said "I think I'm getting a little confidence now."

We have to grow with the times, we don't necessarily have to join in all the time. I guess that's kinda my theme for now.

XO,

Lorelei
