December greetings and the heat is on!!!

I am happy as a clam and NO longer freezing my you know what off. Sorry I've been absent for so long but my life has been a whirlwind lately however I am still alive and kicking!! Thanks for all the nice emails my dear friends. I've been taking care of business which does not leave much time for blogging. Now that I finally have my furnace repaired its time to bring my car into the shop on Tuesday. Its always something in Tami's world.

I have tons of new cards to share with you however I have to bring them to the library to scan them so I can post a few. Take care now and please stay warm. Feel free to leave me a little love as God knows I certainly need it now more than ever. 'Tis the season for the crazies too. Don't you just love when people wig out over the smallest things and are just plain rude? I witnessed this yesterday in a coffee shop. "Geeze Louise" as the Minnesotans say. I say take a chill pill lady. Thanks for stopping by and have a great week. Tami

It's a chilley one!!

Brrrrrrrrrrrrr!!...only 29 degrees at 4:30 am. We had our first official frost last nite and it sure was cold and frosty when I took the trash out. I apologize for being a bad blogger but I still have no working printer to scan my cards. Plus I sent a whole bunch of them out this week. Here's a card my friend Wendy made last Sat. nite when a bunch of us stampers got together. I loved how her card turned out and thanks for photographing it Jan. Hope you all have a spooktacular Halloween weekend. Thanks for stopping by. Hope to have my cards to share with you soon. Tami :) Boo to you!!

Happy Fall Y'All

Greetings friends and Happy Autumn. Finally got some fall stamping done so I have cards to share with you this week. My printer is still inoperable so my friend Jan took photos for me. I hope you are well. I had my annual Halloween party last Saturday night at Jan's and we had fun stamping the night away. I love Halloween more than any other holiday. How about you? What's your favorite holiday? Thanks for stopping by. So have you missed me or what?? Happy Stamping friends. Its time to turn the furnace on here in chilley MN. That's another story. Its always something I tell you. Have a great day. Tami

Happy October!!

Just popping in to say hello and I hope you are all well. Don't these look yummy for a little fall treat? I found them on Etsy and sure wish I could bake some but that probably won't happen. I've been enjoying the beautiful fall weather here in MN and my yummy Honey Crisp apples. Thanks for stopping by. What is your favorite thing about fall? I love the beautiful colors of the season.

These boots were made for walking!!

This was one of my highlights of Scrapfest on Friday. I only went one day this year and got my fill. Thanks Grandma Jan for taking this photo for me. The gentleman was HOT from head/hair to toe and there were several men in their fancy pants inside of Archivers at the Mall of America. I know this might not be for everyone but it was a nice diversion from the sea of women at Scrapfest and total eye candy. Tami

Scrapfest Begins....October Afternoon!!!

I attended an October Afternoon Crop Thursday evening at Scrapbooks Too (Bloomington) with four of my gal pals. The crop was SO awesome and it was held from 5pm to midnite. I enjoyed meeting John and Kim (owners of October Afternoon). They have been in business for four years and are located in Apple Valley, MN. We are very lucky to have such a fabulous company in our state. Here are projects we completed at the crop.





















I am caving and going to the Mall of America on Friday. I just can't help myself. I will have my friend Grandma Jan photograph our October Afternoon goody bag and share that with you soon. Its SO late and I need to get my beauty rest. Scrapfest really gets me on a high. Stay tuned my friends. It's only just begun. Thanks for stopping by.Tami

PS...Here's my ATC (Artist Trading Card) from Wednesday night at Smudges in Chanhassen.

Cosmo Cricket has arrived for Scrapfest!!

Hello friends-
I don't have a working printer at the moment so I can't scan anything new to post. Sorry about that and I know I am a bad blogger. Tonight after our monthly ATC meeting at Smudges I hurried to Bloomington as I wanted to welcome Julie and Lindsay from Cosmo Cricket to Minneapolis (two of my favorite peeps in the industry). I always get really excited when its Scrapfest time at the Mall of America even though I won't be participating in a lot of things I am so grateful for the events I do get to attend. More on that later. Planning on venturing out to the BIG Mall of America on Sunday if all goes well this week. Unfortunately it started raining early today and hasn't really stopped all day. The forecast for the weekend is for a soggy and wet weekend. Oh well, can't control mother nature. I am off to clip some type of photo or image before I press publish. Hey I found a card I recently made. Thanks Grandma Jan for being the best photographer and for saving my you know what. Have a great rest of the week everyone. I will try my hardest to post again soon. I'd like to wish my friend Cindy a very Happy Birthday (on Thursday). Five of us will be attending a crop tomorrow evening. I am sure we will have a blast. Thanks for stopping by and I beg for a little love. Anyone??? Tami
