It is October 1, 2026. Oh, my. Just to put something out there. Another Justine Hovey and Laurel Beard Stress Free summit starts tomorrow. Hopefully I will have some time to watch a few classes. It is another single focus item for each day. 


I have created some fall cards. They have been assembled for a couple of weeks. I have struggled to put a sentiment on them. I wanted to send them out as "first day of fall" cards. That didn't happen. So I have birthday cards due today, tomorrow, and Saturday. Still no sentiments. Maybe I can take pictures of the cards and post them. Who knows.

I chose a cover die. Now how to color it. I tried coloring parts of the die, but the color did not come out smooth. Then I tried blending pastel colors on the base of the card to create a light, airy rainbow of co...

I have posted on my Facebook page many of the cards I have put together. Several others I have sent and forgotten to take a picture before mailing them. As I make new ones perhaps I can pull together a tutorial so you can recreate something similar.  During the 2023 Holiday season I dabbled with creating some snack boards for special gatherings. My daughter-in-law declared that I should be in charge of snack boards every year because she liked the one I had made for a get-to-gether last holiday season. So this year I expanded. On Thanksgiving we generally snack while watching Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. Thanksgiving dinner sometimes takes place later in the afternoon so a snack board wards of some hunger pains.
