A Pot of Flowers

I am so excited about my new chalk... this morning before I went to work I made me a bunch of flowers and when I got home...well after my nap .... I put it all together...and had so much fun highlighting my grass and leafs and pot.... I was so pleased with the outcome... I put the flowers on that gingham checked background because they reminded me so much of something you would see on the front porch in the country... hope you like...thanks for looking... love your comments!

Visiting Susans

I finally got my new toy....that is a long story so I won't go into it....but I have been wanting to try it all weekend...finally I got inspired...during the Country Music Awards no doubt.....lol...... So I cut out my butterfly and came back upstairs to watch the CMA's and got busy with the butterfly.... I used artist chalk to color the butterfly after finding a picture of a real one on the computer.... well anyway the rest of the card evolved from there... Hope you like it...thank you for looking... ~~Jeannie

Bookmark Pogs

John-Robert is home from Auburn this weekend.... but Madison is in T-Town studying away for the second part of her CPA exam... its Monday so say a prayer for her.... I was in a creative mood... but couldn't think of a card to save my life....well I guess I could have to save my life...but one just wouldn't come to me... but when I was looking to be inspired I thought that these pogs would make the most wonderful bookmarks.... and they do!!!... Madison's were just more fun because they are prettier... but John-Roberts suit him to a T.... And the book... I chose to display the bookmarks on this book because its my new all time favorite book... John-Robert got it for me for Christmas and I almost finished it in one day... would have if I could have stayed awake... I read from 7 that morning until 2 that night...and had to work the next day... it drove me crazy to be at work with that book at home unfinished...came home that night and walked in the door and started reading...its a wonderful book....Thanks for looking...~~Jeannie

Shades of Pooh and Grey

I thought of this card yesterday at work... shared the idea with the one of the sweetest people that I know, Britney.... she got so excited that I got even more excited.... left work at 6pm... went to Hobby Lobby for the paper.... out to eat.... home to sleep....and I... who minds you loves to sleep late.... woke up at 6 am and started working on it.... then my blade was too dull for the thinner papers.... so my sweet husband Robby went off to buy groceries at Wal-Mart along with a blade for my Cricut.... I was too excited to wait...I cut all my thick paper cuts while he was gone and finished up when he got home.... it was just a fun card to make... to see the end results was exciting!... Thanks so much for looking... ~~Hugs Jeannie
