Our New Puppy


 Well here he is, Sir Winston of Hawthorne Manor (yes I have been watching too many episodes of Downtown Abby.  LOL  Winston is a Red Boston Terrier.  This is the first picture we took of Winston when he came to live with us at 9 weeks old on February 28.



Does the above picture remind you of Sir Winston Churchill, it does me.  LOL 



Puppies need their sleep.  Winston eats, runs and plays and then falls over asleep.  Yep, he is a Baby Puppy.

PAPER FLOWER BURLAP WREATH CLASS


Today I am sharing my finished wreath.  The Wreath Kit is in the Occasion's Catalog and is $17.95.  I had two Wreath Classes and both classes were allot of fun.  I made one wreath for my Mom for Easter and I kept one for myself.  All class members seemed to really enjoy making the different flowers for the wreath.

We realized that we could use the same pattern from these flowers to make other flowers for different seasons.  Below are pictures of the ladies from both classes.  I hope you enjoy seeing them.

                                                                             Frances


                                                                              Nancy

EASTER Cards


I enjoyed using the blender pens in coloring these tulips on my Easter Card.  The Colors are Perfect Plum, Pear Pizzazz, and a little Stazon Black.  Ran the card through the Big Shot for the dry embossing.  Chevron Ribbon adds a little embellishment.



The above Easter Card was made by one of my Hostess Club members, Patty Holscher from Springfield, VA.  Patty ran the Crumb Cake Card Stock for the cross through the Wooden Embossing Folder to provide the wood grain look. The Elegant Eggplant Ribbon is pretty draped over the cross and provides a beautiful visual of what Easter is all about.
