EASY-PEASY VALENTINE CARDS

Just wanted to share a quick

Valentine Card you can make

today to give to someone

special.

 First select a paper design
that you like, and I used
white pre-made envelopes.
(Paper By Heart Attack)

Next, I cut the design
paper to fit the front of the
card. Then added a simple
white doily and a Valentine
Bingo Card.

These cute bingo cards are
by Jenni Bowlin.

Next, I found these cute
Teabag Wrappers via
Creature Comforts Blog
(free downloadable)
and printed them out on
my computer.

I cut the Teabag Wrappers out
and sewed them with my sewing
machine leaving the top open.
I attached baker's twine
to a tea bag and used the little
heart that comes with the
Teabag Wrapper printout as
the little tea tag.
Once these were put together,
I adhered them to the inside of
the card!

I used this delectable tea
from The Republic of Tea
which I found at World Market!

Hope you enjoyed ...
I made five cards in just
about 30 minutes once
I had everything assembled and
ready to go!

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!!

FOR THE LOVE OF NORO YARN

I SIMPLY ADORE NORO YARN!

I believe it's the most beautiful yarn

to work with. As you work on your

project all of these gorgeous colors

unfold before your eyes.

And, there are different types of

Noro Yarns to delight anyone's

knitting or crochet fancies.

This is an adorable shrug that I

knit for my daughter.

Cuteness!

 I also love to make just

simple granny square's with

Noro Yarn. This blanket was done

in one colorway, about 9 skeins.

This granny was done in

about 9/10 different colorways!

And, this wrap may just have to

be one of my next projects!

FOR THE LOVE OF NORO YARN!

MIRACLE FOUND!

I found a miracle ....

This little bottle of body lotion!

What a miracle! I live in a very

dry climate and my skin is always

dry ....very dry!

I have also been having a lot

of trouble with my feet.

They have been the worst ever!

And, believe me I've tried everything

to get them smooth again.

I've tried ....

all kinds of butter creams,

all kinds of lotions,

all kinds of specialty creams,

I have even tried the

shaving cream - listerine

system!  

(Yes, there is such a thing!)

This lotion was recommended by

our local news anchor for

KUTV - Channel 2 News

Shauna Lake

(I know, isn't she just the cutiest!)

Over the holidays, she does

a 'favorite things' list and this

lotion was on it.

I've only been using it for about

three weeks ....and boy, is there

a difference. I use it every morning

after getting out of the shower.

My skin is super soft and

my feet!  Well, let's just say

I haven't had feet like this in years!

NO DRYNESS, NO CRACKING, NO PEELING!

I told you

MIRACLE LOTION!

I found this bottle at Costco, but

I've seen it at Rite-Aid. I'm sure you

can order on-line too!

So, if you are in need of

a great body lotion ....

and, really need a fix for your feet ...

then RUN and get some of this!!!!!

PICTURE OF THE DAY!

Finally, a snow day!!!

ATC FUN AND OTHER LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES

Still working on my

366 Days of ATC 2012!

I played a bit yesterday,

but found I need to be a little

more organized when I'm working

on my ATC Art.

See ....this is my space during

the process yesterday!

It looks a mess, but actually I

call it 'controlled chaos'.

This is the ATC I posted

today!

I'm hoping to do a bit

more playing as the year

goes by, but for now I've been

so busy! Once again, I have

probably overextended myself

in the on-line classroom

department.

I currently signed up for

Jessica Sprague's

SUBWAY ART CLASS

This looks like an awesome class and

it a self paced program. I'm anxious to

get started on this one.

In addition to this class, I also signed

up for her

DIGITAL ART JOURNALING CLASS

This is the class which has me nervous ....

not the process ....

it's because I'm very far BEHIND!

It started on January 9th, and I just

now got everything in place to begin.

So for the next few days,

I'll be huffing and puffing to catch up!!!

Might be MIA for awhile!!!!

I'm also attending

BODY RESTORATION

produced by the awesome

BRAVE GIRLS CLUB.

It started last week and a new

class is presented each Tuesday.

So far so good, I think I can keep up with

this class.

I just don't know what happens ....

I ALWAYS over extended myself ...

but, HEY .....I love to LEARN!!!!!

SEE YOU SOON!!!!!
