Hi Everyone!

Well I thought I would make one last Holiday card.  I actually made a ton of these wreaths and used them for decoration on Christmas gifts. When I stopped to figure it out I think I cut over 800 of these branches.  I searched and searched for the MS branch punch and everyone said it was being discontinued.  Then a friend of mine at Joanns (it's good to make friends in the store:) told me they were on order and to place my name on the to be notified list online. Well it turned out I did get notified and ordered it and received it the week before Christmas. Yay, I LOVE it! 

There are some really inspiring challenges, so I just had to participate in a few.

Hi Everyone!

What a weekend!  My hubby and I spent the weekend in Napa. It was an experience of a lifetime.  First we had dinner with my Dad at Bottega and I got to have my picture taken with the one and only Micheal Chiarello.... Second, we stayed at the Hotel Yountville (Fabulous). Third, we saw a comedian at the Uptown and last but certainly not least we had dinner at the French Laundry. There are no words to describe this eating experience. SENSATIONAL.....

Now for my card, I wanted to send a couple of thank you's for the weekend. Here is the first one. It was made without the Cricut.  The paper is from KI memories and Recollections.  I machine stitched the yellow paper, heat  embossed "Thank You" and added some ribbon.
