Six cards and puppy update

Greetings fellow paper addicts! I just got done watching "Confessions Of A Shopaholic" with my daughter. What a great show! I hate to admit, I have felt very much the same way when the main character described her obsession of shopping to her boss/boyfriend. "The world is happier when I buy things, but, then it gets sad and I have to do it again." Whoo hoo - wake up call - I felt that way when I was a quilter! I don't fall into that trap quite as easily with scrapping, although I do find it tempting with so many new products fresh off the presses, so pretty and new, that 'gotta have it' feeling runs right through my blood... you get the picture.

Anyway, back OT! The cards!!

I made 16 cards each of 6 different designs. I used some familiar CTMH paper packs and card designs from the new Wishes how to book from CTMH. But, the most fun was using up random scraps of paper I've been saving, not necessarily CTMH products but none the less, nice paper! It was a great feeling to see that my efforts in sorting and organizing all that left over paper from scrapping paid off!

While the cards were purposely made with a more simplistic design, I enjoyed the process of each one which is key for me. I will give these to my parents {hugs} who will be hosting a reunion for their Army buddies. I think it will be a nice addition to the gift baskets given out.

I have yet to master the photography of these types of items, sooner or later, I'll catch on, until then, you'll have to squint a bit maybe... (hee hee..)

Update on our puppy: He is still at the animal hospital. They did several tests and he is perking back up but still on the mend. It doesn't look as though they will do surgery for a blockage but his esophagus and stomach have been irritated and he's not too interested in eating. So, we are hoping he can come home to his own comfy bed and we can put this all behind us. Thank you for your kind words regarding our little buddy.

God Bless!
