Busy, Busy, Busy

Sorry for not posting recently. I have been very busy. I'm trying to finish up my swaps for Regional next Saturday, I'm hosting Bunco tomorrow night and not to mention I have my family that I want to spend time with. I promise to post something soon. I'll definitely post my second swap by Friday.

Why, oh why?

Okay....It's been a few days, I know. I've got my second swap basically done, but of course it needs ribbon. As you most likely know I did a Ribbon Share not too long ago and I'm now waiting on the ribbon order's arrival. Of course, I could finish putting the card together if I had the color I needed. However, the UPS man will not arrive until 7:00 tonight. Why, oh why does he deliver so late? He's in the neighborhood during the day...I see him. Why can't he just swing by my house while he's here? What gives? No, he makes me wait until after we've had dinner, gone for our walk and put the gal to bed. By then, I'm beat! I've got ribbon to cute and projects to finish. I just don't understand why he doesn't realize this! I guess its those pesky urgent business related packages that need to be delivered first...whatever. Doesn't he know card making is serious business? Seriously...it is.....well in my world at least.

***Update***
Guess who I saw driving around this morning around 10:00!

***2nd Update***
Package was delivered at 5:34! :)

Stamp Camp Projects

Here are the cards that everyone worked on at Stamp Camp.

This is a variation of one of the cards that the ladies did at Stamp Camp. I've already given the original away.

This was my take on a Thanksgiving card.

I got the idea for this one over at Splitcoaststampers.

This card is a variation of one that I found at Michele Force's blog.

Here's another variation of a very cute card. Here's were I got the idea from.

Very simple Halloween card.
