A bit of the "New" Craft Cave

Greetings All!

So glad you could visit today!  I'm getting the craft cave put back together in our new home and thought I'd share a couple of pictures and more new cards.  Thanks again for stopping in!

Holy Moly.... Its been such a long, long time!

Greetings everyone,

Thank you for taking the time to look at my blog today.  A lot has happened since I last posted.  My dear husband and I bought a home in Arizona, sold a home in western New York and lost our dear puppy Maggie.  So, the reason I haven't been here is obvious.  It took me three months to pack, sell  leftover stuff, donate leftover stuff and recycle leftover stuff.  We had a lot of leftover stuff!  Then came the move itself.  We rushed to Arizona to make sure we made it to the new house before the moving truck arrived only to wait another 5 weeks for it to get here.  Then we had to unpack, organize and figure out what to do with more leftover stuff. Oh, and don't forget, new drivers licenses, car registrations, mail, banking, doctors, dentists.... I know you have been there done that too, so thanks again for stopping in.

This is my first project in my new craft room.  It's a 4" sq. "Smashbook" for my great niece Nichol's baby shower next month.  I know they're having a boy if you couldn't tell.  Please leave me a comment, I'd love to know what you would have done different.

Hugz,

These are a few pictures of our new home.  Looks pretty empty now, but we plan on moving in soon and filling the empty areas.  If you'd like to see the whole house you'll have to come visit.

Don't Pay the Ransome!! I'm Back!

Greetings every one.  Exciting news here.  My dear husband and I are moving to the beautiful state of Arizona in just a few months.  We wintered there this year and loved it enough to stay.  For now we are getting ready to move out of our New York home.  We've lived there for the last 39 years.  Our eldest was five months old when we moved here.  We will miss our nearest and dearest friends and family very much when we do go, but we are also excited to start another new chapter in our lives that doesn't include snow!  I think I'll have a little time to make a few cards between now and moving day so keep your eye out for another new post soon.
