New Tab!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Everyone!

Today I made a New Tab at the top of my blog, named "Made in the USA".

In here I posted an Excel Document that you can click on to make BIG, but can't click on the links... :(

Sorry!!

Check it out, I found it very interesting as I worked my way thru these companies over the several months and was pleasantly surprised at times.  And other times not so much so....

But it's here for you to use as you like.

I plan on keeping it up to date as much as possible.

If you have any suggestions please let me know.

If you liked what you see become a Follower either on Blogger or by Email.

I'd love to have you!!!

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

 

WOYWW

Mornin' Everyone!

WOYWW

 (What's On Your Workdesk Wednesday)

 Every Wednesday Julie Dunnit hosts a gathering of crafters of all kinds from everywhere to share what they are working on, by taking a pic of your play area. It's really fun to see all the different things people from all over the world are working on and I must say I've meet some very interesting people from Julie's sit. Thanks Julie!!!!

Will here's mine for today;

I've been working on a few 6 x 6 cards, which is different for me... but needed the size for when this card is opened...You'll see in a min.

This one I used a paper that had Stamps on one side and a deep Red on the other...

 Here's a little closer view so you can see the layers........

And here's the inside.... !!!

Yes it's decorated to match... listed are all 12 months with 6 lines and space to jot down those special dates and names to remember.

There's a ribbon loop on the inside at the top for hanging!

I think this would be a great gift idea for someone special to keep track of all those Birthdays, Anniversaries, and important dates that seam to slip away on us.

Let me know what you think or if you have any ideas!

Will off I go to check out your blog now................

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

Summertime.... and the livin' is easy

Hi Everyone!!

Will I finished my box for the Summertime cards I made a few weeks ago....

Check this out!

 I love how it turned out...

I had to cut down my size some because these cards are 3.5 x 6 so everything need to be changed some, but it turned out nicely I think!

Here's a pic of it closed and tied with a bow.....

Here's one of 4 cards I had made... If you'd like to see the other 3 cards just go back a few week to see them all!

As Always,

Thanks for stopping by again!

Hope you Enjoyed!!

Please give me your feed back on my adventure as I need all the help I can get... I look forward to your ideas and comments. Can't wait to hear what you have to say!
