Random Act of Kindness and CCE exchange



A RAK is what we call sending each other cards for no special occasion - rec'd one on Tuesday from a fellow stamper - I love this little girl! Thanks Dorothy!
The other card comes from another fellow stamper who exchanges cards each month with fellow stampers. Thanks Irene - love this trishutter card!

More Cards - Scenic






Am in the midst of a month long card making "contest" - have made the first two cuts with the third happening this weekend. Was quite apprehensive out about this card as it had to be scenic - so of course I had to make several until I had one to submit - can you guess which one I submitted?

Camera

I found my digital camera - can't believe how relieved I am! Where was it you ask? On the floor behind the passenger seat in my hubby's car - probably put it there thinking I might need it to take pictures when we went to the acreage!
I honestly think I have a guardian angel sitting on my shoulder!!!!!

New Nesties Storage Solution




I am a very visual person - and I find if I can't see it - it doesn't get used - so with that in mind I wanted something for my nesties and went on the search - found this idea here:

So went to my local Walmart in the children's craft section and found packages of two magnetic sheets (sticky backed) - came home and "stuck" them to my bulletin board - used three packages - hung my bulletin board and voila - instant art!!!!
On a side note am using my nesties more now that they are out in the open - and have decided to keep my old system magnetic sheets in CD holders for when I travel.
Thank you Sandy for bringing your camera and taking this photo - have misplaced my digital camera - not sure where but it is here somewhere!!! (I hope!!!)
