Post Thanksgiving Birthday

This is a variation of a trifold card. I made it for my husband brother's girlfriend who is quite an artist. Her birthday is tomorrow and I wanted to make a personal card just for her. They were here in October visiting from Washington State. It was a lot of fun especially showing Sandy's girlfriend how to eat lobster and clams. I made part of the card with my cricut. This style card gives you a lot of room for a sentiment which is on the back of the card. Below is a picture of the 4 of us having some Maine lobster and "steamers"! It was a terrific visit with them! Happy Birthday Linda!!
My sisters and I are making these Santa/Gingerbread houses. They are 9 inches in height and 6 inches wide. You can put candy or a gift inside the house. I found a template on Pinterest and then just adjusted the sides. Loving how this can out!
The holidays will be here before you know it! Time to decorate!

First Snowfall!

Yesterday was our first snowfall for the 2023-2024 season. There was only a coating but it is always so pretty!
I have been busy in my craft room. I made a birthday card for friends and relatives. Here is a box card and yes he does like golf.
This card is a 4 panel pop out card for my sister-in-law. I love putting pictures in cards.
Wanted to show this last picture of Ollie, our granddog. This picture shows a little fall and a little winter and a great subject matter! Ollie even posed for the picture on a walk.
