Happy 4th!

Happy Independence Day!  Here's a bit of trivia for ya:  Did you know that John Hancock signed his name on the Declaration of Independence larger than anyone else's so that King George would be sure to see it?  All of the signers were literally signing their own potential death warrants in signing that document.  Pretty gutsy, huh?

We had a good day, even though the festivities were cut short a little by the rain.  Lots of food and fun in the backyard.



Here is the latest layout I've completed.  Hope you like it.

Weekend Challenge #141

Here's the card for Weekend Challenge #14 on A Shade of Blue.

Recent Projects

This is such a busy time of year for us.  Thought I'd just pop in to share some projects I've done recently.  The one on the left is a Post-It Note cover, and the one on the right is a card made with clip punches.  I'll be teaching the Post It Note cover at my next workshop.  Check back for the date.  Enjoy!

Last opportunity to order from current TAC catalog!

If anyone wants to order, please let me know.  I have to have all orders in by June 28.  Remember, all retiring sets are 25% off!! 

Here's my great-nephew!

Isn't he adorable?  I can't wait to see him in person. 

Baby Rowen is here!

He made his grand entrance at 1 a.m. this morning!  He's 4 weeks early and weighs in at the featherweight class with a mere 5 lbs. 7 oz.  Mom & baby are doing well, and I should have pictures soon.  Woo hoo!  I'm a great-aunt!

I quit my job!

I finally gave notice Tuesday.  I just can't take that jerk anymore.  And he's acting like a child, saying things behind my back (or so he thinks).  He should really make sure the person he's bad-mouthing isn't standing in the next aisle.  I might just tell him off tomorrow, and forget about next week.  I'll just have to see how he acts.

Anyway, I thought I'd share some photos of the flowers I got for Mother's Day.  They aren't still alive, but they've been immortalized on film. :)
