Good day, ya’ll~
What a lazy Sunday!   I was up well past 2am last night/this morning, so I slept until nearly 8:30am.   My son did a top notch job cleaning my studio yesterday (yeah, he wants something), and made me promise I would not mess it up until today.   First thing I did […]

Happy Saturday, Friends!
Today is an exciting day in the McMillen household.   Our son, Noah, starts his first job!   Yup, he is showering and shaving right now.   He is so excited to get there that he wants to leave 30 minutes early for a 10 minute drive..lol.   I think it is hilarious […]

Happy Wednesday, ya’ll!
We (my family) are BBQ people.   We grill 12 months out of the year.   It is not uncommon for my DH to be grilling in a blizzard
This week at Our Craft Lounge, we are celebrating all that is summer by spotlighting the SUNKISSED stamp set.   It is appropriate […]

Happy Sunday, Ya’ll!

Good Afternoon!
This week’s There She Goes challenge is to create a gift card holder in honor of Father’s Day.   There’s a hitch.    The project had to include shadow stamping.
Well, as per usual, I did my first gift card holder and forgot the shadow stamping! Doh!   I’m going to share it with you […]

Good morning, ya’ll
Well, I have to admit it.   I finally made a one layer card that I am happy with!   I know, weird, huh? LOL   When I saw Emily’s color (or lack of) challenge, I did cringe.   White doesn’t scare me, but no layers does.
I got more than a […]

Good morning!!
Have you ever gotten up and started your day only to realize you probably should have stayed in bed?    I kinda feel like that this morning.   Then again, the sun is shining…the birds are chirping… and the coffee tastes real good.
I really wanted to stamp this morning.   I haven’t done […]

Happy Memorial Day !
Wow, it has been some time since I have had the chance or mojo to stamp.   We (the family) have been on a roller coaster ride over the last week.
Today’s Technique Lover’s Challenge was the perfect way to get me back into the studio.   We were challenged to make a […]

Good morning!!!
Well, we are at day number four of the sneak peeks for Our Craft Lounge.   I can’t stop smiling at these adorable, well drawn images!   There are 19 new sets!!   I have only shown you a tip of the iceberg.   Remember, you can check out the other girl’s blogs listed […]

Good morning, ya’ll!
