Okay..

Okay, here i go. . :) Today was my day off ((WIHOO)) and I had sooo much planned for today. Well, after I was woken up at 11:30 from a BBM from Rick, I made my way out of bed. LOL I guess i was more tired than I thought i was. LOL

Well, one of my plans were to clean up and do a load of laundry and get some scrap-cleaning done today. **sigh** well, I got one load of laundry started. . . . and went to Michael's and did some "I'm-bored-so-i'll-shop" shopping.. then 'thought' about going to Hobby Lobby but thank goodness, i didn't. After i talked myself out of going to HL, I went to the grocery store and bought some lasagna stuff. (Lasagna has been a long overdue meal in my household)

I came home and made myself a glass of mimosa and watched Kim & Kourtney take NY. LOL yeeeah... that was about the extent of my ("productive") day.

Back tracking to the BBM i got from Rick... He told me i left my lights on and our neighbor was kind enough to turn my lights off so my battery didn't die! Phew! So i made said neighbor a card. (YES, A CARD.... ) Now pick yourself off the floor and continue to read my blog.. LOL Here's the card i made her. I took it to her this evening but her patio door was locked so i couldn't get to her front her. So i just slid it in between her door/door jam. :)

I wrote a lil note on the back of card for her. I hope she likes. Sorry, the pictures won't 'fit-to-size" i'm not sure what happened to my blog where i can't reduce the size of the pix.. If anyone can help a sista out, i'd greatly appreciate it. :)

1st RAK - Motivational RAK

I need some motivation to make some TY cards!!! I'm making about 20 cards (or less, not sure yet) for MIL's funeral. There were alot of generous people that needs to be thanked for their support. Being that there's going to be quite a bit of cards to be made, simplicity is the key for me. Especially since i'm not really a card maker. who knows, maybe this will inspire me to make more cards.

Aside from Splitcoaststampers, please send me a link to your favorite card making sites/blogs OR sample of some simple cards for me to make would be nice.

I will RAK 4 bottles of flock to one lucky winner.

Thanks in advance for all your ideas and links - - i will pick someone on Thursday and mail out the 4 bottles to you by the weekend (choice of colors)
