Lockhart Vintage Chair Birthday card



This card I made for my husband's birthday. I love this Lockhart chair image, it reminds me of the chairs my Grandmother had when I was growing up. Her favorite color was turquoise so that is the color I used. The image is Lockhart colored with Copics, the cardstock, punches and brads are Stampin' Up! Have a wonderful day and thanks for stoping by.

Montreal

I'm back from Montreal. I was attending a Global Paging Conference and had a lovely time. I enjoyed spending time catching up with friends I have made over the years and getting to make new ones, especially those from the UK and Australia, as I only have the chance to see them once a year. I love their beautiful accents and miss them already! Montreals 70 degree weather was such a nice break from the 95 - 100 degree weather here. We stayed downtown and had amazing meals and much too much wine! It was a productive and enjoyable trip, but I am glad to be home. I just miss Cody, Piper and Pezz my fur babies too much when I go away. Here are a few pictures.

Here goes...

Well here I am setting up my very first blog. More to come once I figure out what I am doing. I will mainly post various ramblings of my life with my main focus to be stamping, papercrafting, my animals, Safari Sancutary's animals and Akdar Shrine/Shriner's Hospital for Childern.
