Bicycle Snowman

What a day, I just finished my grandson's Christmas card in Sassy Cheryl's Color Me #5   It wasn't without challenges believe me.  The roofers were here putting on a new roof and the hammering was getting to me, finally at 5:30 p.m. the job was completed.  Now for peace and quiet once again.

I used a combination of markers, pencils and chalks and a silver gel pen for the bicycle.  Well I am hungry so I am off to make fish and chips to night New England style.

Going To See The Star Color Me #5

I have been busy all day making my Christmas cards for the family. This year they are all getting a Sassy Cheryl's design on their card. This card is for my granddaughter Meagan, and the sentiment for this card is The Magic of Christmas.

Color Challenge # 4 part 2

This week I just couldn't resist getting Sassy Cheryl's two images for the color challenge, believe me they were a challenge to color. this one also makes a great valentine's day card too.  My sentiment for this one is you stole my heart

Color Me Challenge # 4

Sassy Cheryl did it again and created another beautiful digi. I have a lot of Anniversary cards to send out and this will make a cute one to send at this time of year.  I am new to Digi coloring, it took me 6 tries to get the colors I wanted to use. I spent 12 hrs in my craft room working on this one card. I landed up going to bed before I finished posting my card I was so tired. Oh the joys of being retired and being able to do what you want when ever you want.  I don't add my sentiments until I am ready to send my cards out, because they need to reflect the person I am sending them to.

Show me # 4

Alright Sassy Cheryl wants us to show her where we create and what we are working on. Welcome to my craft room, I am not as neat as the rest of you, because I am always working on 5 or 6 creations at one time. I have my own space with a surround view.  This is where I have my morning coffee when its cold out like it was today, and where I design new creations in tatting and chat with you online.  Its where I learned to knit my socks online, and where I make all my husbands winter shirts when I am in the mood. This is my do everything room, sewing, crocheting, knitting, tatting, cross stitch and make wire wrapped jewelry.  I have the most stylish wastebasket in town a cat food bag....LOL

Sassy Cheryl's Challenge 40 Thinking of Love

At Sassy Cheryl's this week the challenge is thinking of love, well when I saw this love struck snowman I knew it was meant for my husband.  It reminds me of him when we first met and he got all weak in the knees when we kissed.  It was love at 1st sight for both of us.  After two weeks of dating, we got married, and have been happily married for 43 years. We will celebrate our 43 wedding anniversary on January 9th.  Now is that a love story or what.  In the 43 years together, we have stuck by each other through thick or thin, no matter what I made my DH he always wore it with pride.

I wasn't sure which way I was going with this until it happened.  I know I am thankful for a wonderful life.
