It was a rainy, rainy weekend. Oh drat, that meant I just had I “had” to stay inside and spend 2 days in my craft room – LOL. Yes, it was torture – NOT, because I had lots of creative time! I’ve had all kinds of card and box ideas that had been swirling in my mind […]
Thanksgiving
Paper Pumpkins galore, and so easy
As I said yesterday I love decorating for the holidays, to a certain degree. I have boxes and boxes of things to decorate for the fall, Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas.

September means that the holidays are just around the corner and I need to start planning now for Fall, back-to-school, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas. The best thing about this time of year, other […]
