More Cards, More Fun!

Here are more of the cards -- a few variations on a theme, as you can see.

I love my cooking ladies!

These images were from Vintage Workshop and I really do use them over and over!

The one below -- not sure where that came from -- but I love it!

Of course you have to have a cat card...

Or two...

Or three! (Or at least I do!)

And this little one was just so darned cute! I believe this image came from a disk my PBS/blog friend Shelley gave me long ago!

The card below was courtesy of a most generous friend, Shoreacres, who sent me a marvelous box of treats after the death of her dear (and crafty) mom.

I'm so grateful for this image and all the other marvelous bits of jewelry, buttons, fur, yarn and more in her box! (And yes, you'll be seeing more creations made from it here in future posts!)

This one is for Rick.

He just wrapped up a four-day, 400-mile bike ride captaining tandems for Nino and Marie, two of his bike riding friends.

Along with a group of intrepid riders, they pedaled from Lansing, MI to Mackinac City over four days -- one of which included a terrible downpour -- fortunately only for about a half-hour, but that's long enough!

Any time I spend with this gang is bound to be fun! I hope this annual tradition continues for years to come!

  5. The cards are just splendid - and the best news of the weekend is that Debbie Little-Wilson, the cowgirl artist who's inspired a couple of my posts (and whose work hangs on my walls) escaped the fires. She was panic-stricken that her studeio would be impacted, but all is well.

    The green kitty-card is wonderful - that girl looks so much like you! And the pair of cats is great. But oh, my - I love what you did with the cowgirl!

  13. Those cards are splendid! I immediately thought of my mom when I saw the cards with bakers and cooks :)
    You have a real talent for these - I've called them miniature works of art before, and they are becoming miniature masterpieces!
