Fancy Fold Valentine

Hi there!  Hope you had a great weekend.  Mine sure went by fast and it was a busy one.  Many thanks to the wonderful ladies who attended our Card Buffet on Saturday!  What a fun time we had!
Yesterday the youngest daughter and I baked Christmas cookies all day.  We made approximately 58 dozen.  That's a whole lot of baking!  We both were beat by the time we finished but we enjoyed our time together. 

Valentines Day will be here before you know it.  Thus, my card choice for the Hostess Club members last month.  Cindy Williams' swap card was my inspiration, only hers was a Christmas card.  The Red Glimmer heart is on a strip of acetate that gives the illusion of a floating heart.  Small Red Glimmer hearts are repeated in the lower border strip.  A closure was made using an image from A Round Array and punching it out with circle punches.

Mary Taylor and I will be hosting a 2015 Calendar Class at DeLeo's in Florissant, MO on December 21 (for those who want to make last minute Christmas gifts or a gift for yourself).  A second class is planned for January 4, 2015.  If you would like to attend, please contact me.  (See side bar or header for contact info.)  RSVP's are required as class is limited to 20.

Must get going on my to-do list.  Thanks so much for popping in today!

Mr Owl

Hi there!  Hope you had a wonderful weekend and stayed cool!  It's been so hot!  Good reason to stay inside and stamp, don't ya think?  Today I have some punch art for you - another Card Buffet sample.  Dawn Griffith posted the cutest owl on May 30, 2014 so I just had to CASE it!  Click on the link to watch her video here.  The only difference is the owl's eye color.  Thank you, Dawn, for the inspiration!

Must cut this short since I have tons to do!  The weekend was a busy one with our granddaughter here for the weekend, Club meeting on Saturday, and we still have the granddog for a week.  Thank you so much for visiting today!
