Happy Easter

As always I am completely mystified by how quickly time can pass. This year has really been an adventure for me with the move to Texas and the kids staying behind in Alabama while I settle on a house and schools. I'm so excited to say I finally found the perfect place for us to live. It's close to work, the schools are good and it's a brand new house. This is a first for me and tomorrow the construction starts!!! Of course I will be taking pictures and journaling the whole experience.

I don't get much time to do anything crafty. My stuff is spread out in a thin layer across San Antonio and even back in Alabama. I have a hard time being creative when I have to get things out and set them up before I can start. I always want to get right in there and get my hands "dirty". Last week I was actually able to do some stamping. I made Easter cards! It was lots of fun. Enjoy!

  2. Hi Cat! I just left a voice mail for you. Glad to see you have been able to do some stamping! The cards are great, but I'm surprised you didn't use the 'Backgrounds I' texturz plate on any of them! When are you coming back to Montgomery? I Miss YOU!!!
