Loving Our House!

Lately I have been in the nesting mode.  after getting all boxes unloaded, furniture arranged, etc.....for me, it's to decorate and make little displays.

Couldn't get great light for the living room,need to keep working on this,mbecause ut's a wonderfully cozy place.  The floating shelves are one set of two on either side of my prep sink (can I say I love having a small prep sink.....so great when multi-tasking in the kitchen).

I have another MFT card to share;

This card features the 'Green Pastures' stamp and die set, colored in with copic markers, along with the little fence die that I love, it looks like just where we live!  I embossed the sentiment using Zing embossing powder.  Fun card, oh, and I got the idea for the plaid shirt from the MFT Designer idea gallery, colored with copics.

My next project...I got this old window frame at an antique store.  Sanded it, and re-glued the wood panes in.  I left it pretty rough (well, it was in pretty bad shape and would have split the wood to pieces if I had sanded any more :), this is the first coat of paint...I think Inwant to make a photo collage kind of bulletin board...I'm sure it will evolve...

Thanks for stopping by,

It's Been Awhile, New House, New Challenges

It's been over a year..in the meantime, we have been living in our RV for close to a year while building our new home.  We are blessed to have 10 acres to house cows, pigs a big garden and all kinds of critters, and the biggest blessing is that we have a beautiful place to host family events and gatherings with our kids and grands.   It has been a lot of fun to see our plans and dreams turn into a reality. I will share more photos of the house and my favorite elements.

I have also been enjoying my new craft room, it's hard to focus on decorating, landscaping, canning and freezing....with this room screaming for me to create😉. I will for sure share pics of this small little space that is my creative area... I did notice a little contest from All My Favorite Things, which I made a card for, featuring 'The Whole Herd' stamp set and dies.

I blended some Tim Holtz distress ink in for the background and created a little farm scene using MFT dies and stamps,coloring in with Copic markers.  Super fun for me to create😄

Until next time.....
