Brrr

I hope everyone is safe from the snow and ice storms across the county. This has been brutal. We have eleven inches of snow and a wind chill this morning of -20. Daisy is not a big fan.

Using a comment from my previous post from my friend, Loll, I decided to start by CASEing and made a card copied from Bette. I changed the paper and where the greeting is but used the same die set from Altenew. I didn't need the alcohol but did have a snack first.

I'm often mistaken for an adult because of my age.

Be kind to one another.

Still trying to get mojo. Feel free to use too.

I'm coming back to crafting but it's so slow and I don't know why. I'm going to take a page from Darnell's blog when she needed inspiration and created I.D.E.A.S. You've all probably heard of CASE, copy and share everything and I decided to use those letters to get me going.  Please feel free to use this too as your inspiration.

C - Choose cardstock and colors

A - Alcohol inks or markers or if it's a bad day, just plain alcohol for me

S - Snacks, I must be fortified. This would be a good time to choose a Stamp too.

E - Eat snack and Emboss the aforementioned cardstock

If there are five weeks in a month just relax. We've been making cards all month.

WARNING: All those snacks and alcohol may cause weight gain

See you soon. I'm off to gather all the items I need to get started.

Be kind to one another.

Go IU

Tonight is the big football game with the University of Miami and Indiana University. I will be perched on the couch at six pm. ready to go. I hope it is a good game since both teams are so good.

My granddaughter's boyfriend came with her Saturday and he is our family's computer guru. He sorted out so many things for me and I can now load pictures from my phone into the computer. He was also able to load most of my stuff from the computer to the Ipad and showed me how to get it. That's not saying I'll remember everything he showed me but I can now facetime and show him the issue.

My card today is inspired by a card my friend, Loll, posted on December 17th. It took my breath away when I saw it. She also posted the video she saw by Pete Hughes. I used the same colors as she and Pete did for my moon.

A pun has not completely matured until it is full groan.

Be kind to one another.

Old broad, new tricks

I got an IPad foe Christmas and boy, what a learning curve this is. All my other things are android and this is so opposite. I wasn’t good with my old technology so I’m having a hard time. 

Lots of family get together since the holidays too that I am grateful for.

I’m getting back to crafting now. Ordered a couple of new things to inspire me. This is an embossing folder with colored paper that I added some more color to. I can't turn the picture up and down. I did this on my Ipad, then went to the computer to finish it. I still can't load pictures from phone to computer.

In the interest of transparency with this iPad. It is not easy, peasy, lemon squeezey.

Be kind to one another.
