How I send Hugs and loves to YOU

I have this fabulous room that is right off the kitchen, easy access to stir a pot or take a batch of cookies out of the oven! I can get lost in here and not be seen for hours (well, hours doesn't work, because there is someone else who lives in this house who seems to want lunches, dinners, snacks etc...you know who I am talking about!)  Not to mention a little three foot munchkin who pops over in the morning to see if Grandma wants to watch "Handy Mandy" with him!! And then around 3pm, sometimes a couple of cute neighbor girls (that would be Ellie and Lily!!) stop in to see if Grandma has any chocolate chip cookies for an afternoon snack and then maybe, go into the "Studio" and do some crafting with me!

However, when I am by myself and can get messy, I like to make cards. So I thought I would share a couple with you.  I stamp, I color...I always did like to color as a young girl!  I often use the sewing machine to stitch around some of the pieces, I experiment with lots of different medium; like chalk, water color pencils, regular colored pencils, different inks and then distressing.  Anyway, I de-stress here and I create these cards and not just cards, I love to make boxes, too.  I love to give little treats out and think putting them in a homemade box is the 'icing' on the cake!  Hope you enjoyed seeing a little bit of my work.  And the sentiment says exactly what I would say if I were to see you and give you a hug!
