It’s Day Three of the RemARKable Holiday Madness blog tour and I think it’s about time I started moving through the holidays, don’t you? I’m still living large with my Attitude of Gratitude, so it makes sense for me to share a couple of thankful-type cards with you. This card makes me feel really, really … More Unraveling the twine

When they get too close to the door he barks. Seriously. He has this goofy sound he makes that sounds like a bark. … More It’s gettin’ kinda Birdy around here…
It’s been a while since I’ve done a color challenge – I’ve made notes about at least half a dozen of them but that’s as far as they’ve gotten – until today. So many challenges, so little time!
