Hello Ladies. I made a card today and I would love to share it with you. This card did not take much time to make because I used a lot of scraps that I had hanging around. Normally I do not keep my scrap card-stock or DP but I decided that it was time for me to start saving some of it. Now that I am using my punches more I've found that keeping my scraps sure has come in handy. As always this was a very easy card to make.
Here is my card.
Here is what I used.
All products are from Stampin'UP! The card-stock that I used is Very Vanilla, Real red, And Pretty In Pink. The DP paper I used is Sending Love Specialty # 117153. The ink used is read Red and versamark. Punches used are: Extra Large Fancy Flower # 118073 Pinking Hearts border # 117649 and the Small heart # 117193. I used the Polka Dots Impressions folder # 117335 and the Finial Folder . The Stamp sets that I used are: With ALl My heart # 118623and Grateful greetings from the last mini catalog. I hope this set is brought back because I love it. Last but not least I used a pink button from the Sorbet button collection.
First I would like to share two photos of one of Wayne's favorite dinners that I make for him. It's called Sweet & Tangy Pot Roast. If you would like the recipe hop on over to my Personal blog. You will find it here.
Cooking in my crock-pot.
Here it is on the plate and all set for Wayne to eat. He always thanks me after he eats what I cook. Isn't that sweet ?
It is still snowing here in NH. The grand total from Monday until now is 9-10 inches. I don't think that we will get more then an inch today but who knows.:) Tomorrow is suppose to be a snow free day, Yay! On Monday I stated that I would share with you what Wayne and I did for the weekend. Instead of posting all of the photos I decided to make a Smilebox and share it with you that way. If you do not have high speed cable then it will take awhile for you to view it. If you feel the book moves to slow then just click on the arrow so that you can get through the photos quickly. Don't forget I add music to my Smilebox. So don't forget to turn your speakers down.

I know, not a very exciting life huh? What you just saw is how Wayne and I spend most of our weekends in the winter. It is just too darn cold or stormy to do much else. We do not ski or snow board so we live a very quiet life. But it's our life and we are quite happy to have it.:)
I hope that all of you are having a good week so far. I will be back this weekend. Now, I am off to do a few things that need to be done. Stay safe, stay warm and Smile. :)

I'm always so impressed when people make their own cards. Such a warm touch and makes it so special. That meal looks super yummy too. No doubt that he knows you love him a lot:)
