We've had a goodly amount of rain this past week. Spring Showers are way overrated!
I had my eyes examined this past week and I'm getting two new pair. The VA is treating me well. Of course the exam was free as are the frames I chose for everyday wear. But the cost of lenses are unbelievable! Under $650 for both pair. If you are entitled to VA care find out what they offer..
Saturday I went to the neighborhood garage sale in Southwood where Sonsearae and Chris live. A fun few hours with younger people is good for the soul. Their neighbors Marge and Jose ferried us around and we saw a lot of stuff we didn't need or buy. But I did find a jacket, blouse and some napkins and paid a whopping 4 bucks.
Jim got a new pair of work boots...very comfortable and they have the Texas flag on them. I'm sure he'll get a lot of use out of them because they don't weigh anything!
Handmade cards because:
No one displays an email on the mantle or
Shows off a tweet on the fridge or
Saves a Facebook post in a box of treasures
Total for the year, 156 cards made
These papers are from Echo Park. They have such feminine designs and it's fun putting the cards together. This is the O Happy Day kit
Club Scrap had a challenge so I dug out some paper and had a go at winning using tis sketch we had to follow. I didn't win but the cards turned out well
Wendy Cranford's monthly kit included some lovely butterfly papers so I made these. I thought they turned out well. Stampin' Up! supplies
The Flowering Cactus bundle is retiring and I'm sad to see it go. The colors are so pretty. Once the papers are gone I can use the stamps to make more cards
All is right in our world...
