Hello readers. I am still alive and apologize for my absence. Seems I had a streak of bad luck last week. Must have been that darn Friday the 13th!! I had a very nice class on Friday at Lunds and we made this card or a version of it. Sorry it did not scan too well. I wish you could see it in person. I used my new Quickkuts embossing folder and Eskimo Kisses paper. I love both products. There are a lot of Memory Box pearls on the tree and I even hand sewed on some white metallic thread. So far I've made four of these and I just love making them despite the fact they take a lot of time. Anything putsy is right up my alley!! You know me its all in the details and sometimes I drive myself nuts. Now for the unpleasant news, my furnace and hot water heater both went out last week and a few other issues have cropped up. I now have heat but I am hopefully getting the hot water heater fixed tomorrow. Its always something I tell you. Tonight is our monthly ATC gathering at Smudges. Unfortunately our group has skrunk. No wonder I made my ATCs pretty fast for a change (I had less to make)!! Today is also my friend Caroline's birthday so I have to make her a card before I get my hair cut. I hope you are having a great week. Thanks for stopping by and feel free to leave me a little love. God knows I need some bad. Tami :)

Sending love, love, love for you and your blog. Sorry about all the bad luck lately. Hope things get better for you soon. I'm really sorry the ATC group is shrinking. Hang in there. I hope to be back in January if hubby gets a job (or not). Miss you. Love the card - I need an idea for my Christmas greetings this year.
Hugs - G Jan
So glad you got your heat back Tami. Now for some hot water. Hope the water heater gets fixed tomorrow. I can attest to that card being more spectacular in person. It's gorgeous and the stitching with the silvery thread is a lovely touch. Wonderful as always, Tami!

Wow! Tami, I can see your sewing on this card. I had no idea that you enjoyed doing sewings. It's a lot of work and good for you for making several of thse lovely cards. It is a very,very pretty card.
I was so osrry to hear that your furnace and hot water heater went out. Glad to hear that your furnace is back on and hope your hot water heater will be fixed by tomorrow. You have had a tough year my friend.
Have fun at the ATC group.
