I'm back! With Pop Up Cards

Sorry it's taken a long time to post. I'd actually written something last Friday, and just before I went to post it all, I lost it!

I love technology. :)

I will soon post some photos from my weekend away, much fun was had. In the meantime, I have some cards to share!

I've been following the pop up tutorial at Extreme Cards and Paper Crafting , so the mother's day card is based on the first lesson. I couldn't really decide on how I wanted her card to look, so I decorated inside and out! :)

And for my dad's birthday, I gave him baseball tickets to the Seattle Mariners - so, i had to make an appropriate card -

I "borrowed" a snowman card pattern and refashioned it for the baseballs.  The one in front bears the logo for the Seattle Mariners.  He loved it.

Joining the blogging revolution.....

Well hello world. I finally decided to be one of those folks who can share the comings and goings of their life over the internet!

So - This is my first post. And well, so far so good. Not quite sure what I am doing yet, but I'll get there.

As it says in the description of the blog, I plan to share my crafts, my thoughts, and talk about weight loss, cats and turtles, and whatever else I can think of.

Can't promise I'll post every day, but I'll try to say something - we will see.

So - bear with me on my new blogging adventure, and if anything seems interesting, feel free to drop me a comment!
