Someone Made Mother Nature Really Angry! :)

Oh lordy..it got cold.. and the wind started to blow.. and then the snow fell.. and there were drifts all over.. schools closed and half the town of Ludington shut down.. this was part of a big storm that hit the midwest. Yikes. I have to say.. I'm really getting tired of the snow. Please arrive soon, Spring! Here are a few photos :) These were taking at my inn and around town. Brrrrrrr.. so what is a girl to do? Stay inside and STAMP! Lookie how high the drifts were.. to the door knobs! Ack...

 At the beach.. certainly not bikini weather.. Yikes!




This is along side my garage.. look at this pile of snow up to the peek of the roof top! Am I insane to live here or what?? LOL

 The gazebo is getting covered with snow.. running out of places to put this stuff....

 Here is Ruby and Myself enjoying the snow! Brrrrrrrrrr.....(isnt her coat cute??)


Ok.. now for some Valentine fun.. some creative stuff Ive been making.. enjoy! BTW, some of these cards inspired by Jenny Peterson and Kimberly Van Diepen.. I CASE'd their ideas.. (copy and shared everything). They rock.. just say'n..



 These are those cute bottles of hand sanitizers that you can get at Bath & Body Works .. 5 for $5.00.. a cute little packaging idea.. I love em!

 Using the top note die (stampin up) and all the stampin up goodies.. making these cute little bags that hold candy or other little trinkets inside. :)
 I filled those cute jars with red hots.. mmmm!!

There ya go.. keep inside.. and be creative!

I should be sleeping..

But.. Im restless. I cant get comfy when I lie down. I have a nasty cold and this bug is just lingering.. so.. I thought I'd blog what I've been up to. I got a lot done this weekend crafty wise. Here is something I put together and more to come thru the week in between my start to remodeling my bathroom. Should I take before and after pics...? I'm almost embarrassed to show you what it looks like because I have lived w/ my bathroom this way for omg.. 20 plus years. Why? No idea.. Just always had other things that have needed to be done first.. and my stuff comes.. last.. but now.. im to the end of the list.. and its MY turn! Yippee.. ! Anyway.. here is a little somethin.. somethin...

A bouquet for YOU.. my blog followers!

Just because.. you all rock! Thank you for visiting my blog.  Have a great weekend.. I'm off to get inky and try to forget how yucky I feel with this cold. Take time to be creative!

Go Red Wings!! (Just Have To Share!)

Wednesday night Jan 26th I was able to get to my 1 game a year hockey game. I love hockey.. I love the aggressiveness of the game.. I love the men in their hockey uniform and the "disagreements" on the ice. I love everything about it.. its full of action and fast paced. I thought I'd share a few pictures. I wish I could bring in my Digi SLR but they frown on that. I usually get a seat on the ice but this year.. tried a different spot.. row 8 just above the tunnel and where they sit on the bench. Loved this.. I got to see all my guys in action.. close up. Woohoo!!!

Warming up for the game against the NJ Devils.. the Devilssssssssssssss!!! >:-)














In action... n stuff.. and by the way.. they won!! 3 to 1 over the NJ Devils.. Woohooo!!! Aren't they just adorable?? :-)

More Valentine Stuff


More eye candy for the blog! Using all Stampin Up stuff.. so much fun!! I love Valentines Day, because I get to use my favorite color......... PINK!! :) I woke up with a cold.. I'm all stuffed up and I have a sore throat. This is not good.. I have a full day of stuff I want to get done and I'm on slow motion.. hoping to kick this crud quick. I went to a Red Wings game on Wednesday night and wondering if the guy coughing behind me was the one who gave me this bug. Dadgummit!
