Hello my blog, I've missed you.

I am a blog-a-holic. Seriously. I use to check the blogs i loved multiple times a day and get so frustrated when they hadn't been updated. WHAT were these people doing all day???
Well, I had to take a blog break. No 12-step program required thankyouverymuch.


I started out with stamping blogs, and then moved into sewing blogs, and general crafts. Now my blog list is enormous. I don't hit them as often as i should to keep up. I am always finding new blog treasures out there; one blog always leads to another.


The point being, i miss my blogging and i miss my blog reading. Now that the kids are in school, perhaps i can make a little blog time for myself.


that being said, here is the newest blog i have found that i am loving:




I haven't tried any of the recipes yet, but i am about to! Maybe a week in the slow cooker will get me movin' again. I have gotten where fixing dinner is very low on my list of "have to" or "love to" do things in life. I am not sure why exactly, but i dread that time of day. I really use to enjoy planning menus and cooking, etc. but now it is just a chore I'd rather pass off to someone else. I think i will give Stephanie and her blog that task for the next week and see how that goes. I have a slow cooker and it is used far too little...it is for more than Velveeta cheese dip, right?

Sounds good. I have been trying to jump start my want-to-be talent for cooking. i actually made meatloaf in the middle of the day today. Eventually I just made up my own recipe. I'll keep an eye out for your trials with the slow cooker.

March winds are blowing!

Well, i have started working on the invites for my DD's clown birthday hoopla! Ok so i had no idea how time consuming it was going to be to color that dang clown stamp! wow! i guess i have never done much of that before. I used real red, tempting turquoise, pumpkin pie, bashful blue, and green galore SU! markers to color the stamp form SU! Clowning Around set. When i do party invites i do a two sided card, like a post card, to save on paper. I did finally get them complete last night, all except for the wording that will go on the back of the card. I have a while to get to that. My DH helped me last night finish these up. The card is Pumpkin pie, and green galore card stock with East coast prep DP also from SU! The circle is punched from Tempting turquoise and the ticket is stamped with Regal Rose in on the same color paper and cut out, then glued to the circle. The ribbon is Real Read Su! grosgrain. The sentiment is from a $1 clear stamp set from Michael's. The nex...

SCS Kick Stand Card Challenge

OK, so after months of hanging out looking and getting ideas i finally signed up for SCS today. Also, in questing for new ideas i thought i would participate in some of the challenges so that would force me to be creative. Well, here it is. my first challenge...a kick stand card. It doesn't look like much but for some reason it took me a LONG time to do! I kept messing up the stamped image, SU!'s festive four set, and the "happy valentine's day" stamp, from Michael's $1 bin was mounted crooked, so after trying several times to stamp it straight, i finally popped it in the microwave for a few seconds and repositioned it. I think it all started with the black paper...i only had scraps so i had to build an unusual shaped card. Then i wanted to use that heart patterned paper but had no idea what else. It was very time consuming, but i am happy with how it turned out. I hope whoever i give it to likes it. always cyndi
