Richard, Bekah and I had the privilege to see Liz accept her Honor Award at UWM!!
What a proud moment that was for us!! We are so proud of her to achieve this great award! She is in the top 25% of the graduating class of about 2500 students!!
what an honor!!!
I went to a scrapping retreat on Thursday the 15th and arrived home on the 18th.
I had the best time. We were at some cabins on Lake Koshkonong in Edgerton Wisconsin.
This was our 4th year doing this. I meet some new people who were all amazing and got to see some old friends. The cabins were nice, the weather was good and now we have a mascot!
In the front yard of one of the cabins there is a tree and on that tree is a tiny little red bench for squirrels to sit and eat their corn! It was absolutely adorable.
I managed to get some things accomplished and a blast doing it!
I finished a scrapbook for my daughter. It was her 21st birthday trip to Las Vegas.
I also made some cards, altered some tins and made some canvas art. Pictures of the scrap pages will come later.
Enjoy the pictures and please feel free to comment.
Thanks!

Hi and welcome!
I was able to get some of my "therapy" time in today and just decided to make whatever I felt like making. So, I started by using an empty eye cream jar. I altered it to be used to hold Tylenol or whatever.
Then I had a couple of mini canvases and just used patterned paper and stamps and embellishments and that wonderful Graphic 45 paper.
There is also a box that used to house peppermint bark. Just used papers, a vintage picture and embellishments.
The last thing is another canvas, I think 4x5. I made this for my friend Toni using Tim Holtz stamps and embellishments.
Looking forward to your comments.
Thanks for looking!
Well, lets start out by saying I have been creating but been slow on updating.
