Faux Tearing...

Alright....what do I do in a pinch when I need a great card? I'll tell you! Two days ago before I left for work, I wanted to do a summer card for my SCS secret sister, Lynda, and I decided on the Faux Tearing technique...now the summer card was taught to me by my upline Tracy (mama bear) and the winter one was from a friend whom I inspired at a workshop...So here are the two - Summer and Winter...(winter had some Pixie Dust....I mean Dazzling Diamonds on it - in honor of my first Lil secret sister, Karrie, an INCREDIBLY talented stamper! Not to say that my other secret sisters aren't but Karrie is totally over the top - Dirty Dozen good)


Oh - how I will miss these two retiring WONDERFUL sets....won't be leaving my collection any time soon!

Cannot wait one second more!



I absolutely HAD to share these with you....three lil pics of my craft room/stampin' studio....This lovely place houses all of my stamps on the walls face out so you can SEE them and it houses my doll collection...with the 'spensive ones being UP UP and AWAY from lil fingers...kwim? And too...it houses my Tinker Bell collection.


So the pic with the LIVELY colored tablecloth is where you are when you come down the stairs and turn right...this is the pathway to HEAVEN....
You can only get a glimpse - but this leads up to the worker area....with my area off to the right of this place...

You can see me in front of my work area - the L comprised of my desk and worktable...and Bob's chaise is to the left of where I am....and I am in front of the TV that Bob recessed into the wall - Sue is checking out the room by Bob's chaise...where he sits (sleeps) while I am busy stamping to my hearts content. It is wonderful to have him close by - and now I don't feel guilty being in a different place when we are both home....but sorry - its a mess at this moment...


These pics are compliments of my friend Kathy who memorialized a few secs during my open house - showing my room and celebrating my one year anniversary with SU! Whoooo Hoooo!!! Cannot believe that one! (Hey notice how the crazy demo in this pic is wearing an outfit that MATCHES the room? OY VEY!) Anyway - I have to get more shots so you can see the whole dang thing...with the peeps work tables and all....and plus - I want it to be clean and PRETTY....but when Chatty sent me these pics I had to post....Thanks for sharing in my excitement! Please come play!

Just a note...

While I have been home with a stomach bug (yuck!) I have been commiserating with my puppy Scruffy (actually an 11 year old puppy!) since he has been sick since December....although he is getting better...He now eats a lil baby food with his dog meal and at times boiled rice...It is so hard when they are ill - its worse than babies! You have no idea whatsoever which part hurts and even then you don't know where what parts are on a dog...I hope they do finally do something about the company who imported the tainted food - for many of us, these pets become a major part of the family...I know my Scruffy is my little boy, and a mama's boy at that! Just ask Bob!! LOL I hope he keeps staying well...Unfortunately, I have to chase him around the yard again for another urine sample...my friend Candy says I should have Bob video it and send it in to America's Funniest Videos! Yeah - GREAT! Well, here is my boy - what a face, huh? And then the pic after that is him guarding my first order...he is very involved in anything I do...LOL...ok, now you know I am ready for the funny farm!
