Back from vacation


Hello
I'm back from vacation. We left last friday and went to my mother's house up in Hillsboro, NH.. Then Neil surprised me and took me up to the White Mountains for a couple of days to my favorite resort for some relaxation time. It was a nice time and we couldn't have asked for better weather. The rest of this week we'll spend in our backyard by the pool. Hope you're all enjoying this hot weather. I'll take it, while I can get it!
This is a card that I threw together before we left and I forgot to post, before we left.

Happy Thursday Everyone!

Duckies!!!




Hi Y'all

I've taken quite a bit of time off from blogging, crafting & cardmaking, due to many personal issues. Like they say, "When it rains, it pours" and it's been pouring buckets on our family for months.

Speaking of "pouring".....it seems like it's been raining here in NH. forever! Believe it or not, it seems like our summer just started in mid-July. So, we've been trying to squeeze in some pool time and depending on whether it rains or not, we'll try to throw together last minute BBQ's on the weekends. Today, it's cloudy & muggy, but I hope it brightens up this afternoon.

I recently hosted a baby shower for my nephew and his new bride. The theme was rubber duckies. So appropriate, for the weather we've been having. I made the invitations, the centerpiece and also took a shot at my first diaper cake. The centerpiece doubled as the favors...it's individual cake boxes filled with candy, stacked to form a cake.

I'm working on a card today and some thank you notes....I'll post them tomorrow.

Thanks for visiting and I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!!!
