Hi Everyone,
Wow it has been a while.  Today I am making a Welcome to your New Home Card for friends of ours that live in Canada during the summer and here in Florida in the Winter.  This is the first time I have used blogger since the format changed and already I wiped our my signature.  Oh well, I will figure it out sooner or later.  Anyway the card today is an A2 size. I think the post on the birdhouse is a cute touch.  What do you think?

The paper is all from recolections
Stamp is from All Night Media and I have had it for a long time.
Grass cut from Create a Critter
Sentiment is computer generated.
You can watch the process below:

Thanks for watching.
See you later.....................play nice

Thank you card and organization tip

Hi all and welcome to my first official craft blog for 2012.  Now that my craft room is empty of moving boxes, I can get back to work.
The first card I making is a thank you card.  We all need lots of these after the Holiday season. Mine is actually for a friend that brought me a house warming present shortly after we moved in.
Just a simple card but I love this stamp.

A2 size card

The dsp is from K I Designs bold and brights.

Stamp is from Me and my Big Ideas.

The organizational tip is for storing all your pass words.  Instead of putting them in a long list, try using a small address book and alphabetize them.  Easy easy retrieval.

That's all for now. Check out the video

See Ya..................play nice
