Get Well Soon!

Hi Everyone!!

I can't believe how long it has been since I've been able to post!  We were away on vacation and got evacuated with the hurricane.  We got home just in time for the hurricane to hit.  Our town was flooded in so many areas we could not drive anywhere.  So many stores were closed - including Michaels!!  Just when things were getting somewhat back to normal, we got so much rain all the rivers and lakes in our town overflowed again.  It's just awful.  We've got over 500 people out of their homes!  How are all of you?  Were any of you affected by the hurricane and flooding?   I hope you are all safe and sound!

We are trying hard to get back to normal.  I thought I'd post a little card  I made for my Dad.  I used Create a Critter and the sentiment is computer generated.  I was inspired by a card that Momo had on her blog a while back.  I thought it was appropriate with all this rain we've been having. . .

I am also submitting this for the Bugs, Beasts or Birds challenge at Shopping Our Stash! Check out their blog - there are so many terrific submission on this challenge!

I have missed all of you my wonderful blog friends!  I am glad to be back and will be posting regularly again.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!!!!!

and it's a beach party!

Hi Everyone!

Robyn at My Pink Stamper, has openings for her upcoming 2011 2nd term design team!  I decided to put my hat in the ring and give it a try.  I would love, love, love to be on her design team!  I found her blog about 6 months ago and credit her for my purchase of an Imagine, E-2, MPS stamps and tons of cartridges!!  She also inspired me to start this blog, which I am really enjoying.  I am learning so much from her and all you my wonderful new blog friends!
The challenge is to make a card, scrapbook page, or other Cricut project with your favorite Cricut cartridge usingOrange, Turquoise, Green, Brown and an Optional Color.  I chose Pink.  This color combination just said "beach" to me!  I had so much fun making this card.
Thanks for looking and have a great day!!
