View from the Grasses – Stampin’ Up! Card

Hello There,

I hope you had a nice 3 day holiday weekend.  I took the time off and worked on my garden, went to two family gatherings and kicked backed.  Sometimes a girl just has to have some down time.  🙂

I played around a bit with the Stampin’ Up! Wetlands set this morning and came up with this tranquil scene.   I hope it inspires you to get inky today too.

You can find the complete supply list below for this project and also how to the get the tutorial for this project free or by purchase below.

May your day be exceptionally wonderful!

Until my next post. . . . . . .  .

Huge Hugs!

My Morning with the Girls

Hello there,

Do you ever just take the time to sit and say to yourself “I’m so very fortunate.”  Well that’s exactly how I feel this morning.  It has nothing to do with money or possessions.  Believe me, Russ and I live a very modest life.  It’s just a sense of being.  🙂

This morning I got to have girl time with my favorite chicks.  That’s probably what contributed to my inner peace.  I went outside to find these ladies waiting at the gate for me.

I always think, look they love me so much.  They cannot wait to have time with me so they are waiting at the gate.

Then this happens. . . . . . . . . .

They stampede right by me to get to their favorite place.  The bird feeders.  🙂  This is were they find wonderful sunflower seeds that the birds have tossed out to them.

That’s okay, they eventually notice I am there in the background, quietly having my coffee and enjoying my morning.

One by one they come to say “good morning, when did you arrive here?”

This is my favorite girl Sugar.  She likes to show off her big red comb from all sides, apparently.  I think I would too if I had that on my head.

There was one girl missing this morning and I knew exactly where she could be found.  This is Goldie and she has gone Broody.  That means she is trying to hatch some eggs and relentlessly stays on the nest.  Poor girl, I keep taking the eggs from under her.  They are not fertile, we don’t have a Rooster in our flock and they will never hatch, but try telling her that.

Okay, I’m getting the look from Red.  This is her “go get me some Kale” look.  I am their slave so let’s go to the garden.

On the way to the garden I passed the bleeding hearts in bloom and the heavenly smell of the Lilac in bloom.  To bad this isn’t smell a vision.

We arrive at the little front garden where many of my Spring veggies are growing.

There is the Kale.  “Got it Red.”  “Be right there!”

After giving Red her Kale, I get to kick back with my coffee once again to enjoy the views and soak up the morning sun before the task of the day start.  There is tilling and tomato planting on the agenda.

If you are in the area, come by and sit a spell.  🙂

Well I hope you have enjoyed seeing a little piece of my world.  Thank you all for being part of it.

Have a wonderful day.   Mine is off to a great start!
Until my next post. . . . . . .  .

Huge Hugs!

As you have probably notice you may not have been getting my blog updates for a while.  I switched e-mail subscription providers and to say the least it has been very trying.  I thought I had lost you all in the switch over.  Feedblitz is working on the problem and I am at their mercy.   Software issues are the worst!

Anyhow, they think they may have gotten it fixed so this updates is also being sent as a test to see if things are better.  I hope you all get it.  My fingers, toes and eyes are crossed for luck.

Hugs,

Michelle


Blowing in the Wind – Stampin’ Up! Card

Hello There,

I’ve spent the last two days working like a dog in my yard pulling weeds.  I don’t use weed killer because I grow food for us to eat and I don’t want to be eating weed killer.  So, instead of paying health spa dues I just head out in my yard for exercise.  It’s a win, win, no chemicals in my veggies and exercise to boot.  But. . . . . this morning every part of my body hurts.  This will be the case for a couple of weeks until my body gets in garden mode after a long, long Winter without exercise.  Yep, I’ve been a slug all Winter.

So today’s project is a reflection of just how all those weeds ended up in my yard.  Instead of cussing about it, I decided to make something beautiful about the subject instead.  I’m staying positive.   I hope you like it.

You can find the complete supply list below for this project and also how to the get the tutorial for this project free or by purchase below.

May your day be full of sunshine and fun!

Until my next post. . . . . . .  .

Huge Hugs!

Bare With Me Please

Hey all, I’m currently switching email subscriber software.  Since I am not a computer genius, I’m afraid I’ve been having a few issues in the process.  You may have been getting my blog updates twice or not at all, so sorry.  I’m really trying to work the bugs out.

I may not have any hair left after this process, lol.  Please bare with me and not make fun of my bald spots when you see me.

Huge hugs to all you!
