Hi Guys:
Things have been so hectic around here what with my daughter's Chemo rotations and subsequent daily things that need to be done. I am blessed to be able to be with my child and help her through this time. She has an awesome husband and son who stand beside her. Our holidays are going to be difficult as she is in the hospital for 6 day 24 hour a day chemo and then feels very weak when she is released. We are now getting ready next week for the 4th rotation. Please continue your prayers!

I have found that it is difficult to transport craft supplies to a different home all the time, so last Saturday I took a class in Zentangle! Oh my gosh, I love, love, love it! I've improved since the first one on the 15th, to this one that I did last night the 20th while waiting for my grandson at Karate.
So easy, pen, pencil and paper. That is it! I can't tell you how stress relieving it is.

Hope you enjoy this new art form. Wishing you all Happy Thanksgiving, enjoy your families. Life can change in a moment!

Love you all and thanks for dropping by.  Rozy

Word Art Wednesday - Merry Christmas - Frantic Stamper Kitchen Dress

Good morning everyone. Today I wanted to share this Frantic Stamper (FRA-DIE-09223) Kitchen Dress A2 Card Maker Die with you. I will be entering this in the Word Art Wednesday Challenge.

Gosh everyone can't believe we are off to another week. Since my daughter's diagnosis the weeks are flying by. Tomorrow she goes into the hospital again for her third 6 day Chemo rotation. Please continue your prayers. God is good and I know he hears us when we call!

 

Today I wanted to share a card I made for a friends Mother. She is in assisted care and they wanted something to place on the door to her room. You know me, more is more is more! :o)

 

Hope you enjoy and would love to have you leave a comment if you find me on the Web! Rozy

Hello to all my friends in the crafting world! I'm sorry I haven't been around. I've missed you all and have decided I need my crafting to keep me sane, if you know what I mean!

In late September my youngest daughter was diagnosed with Cancer, it took me several weeks to wrap my mind around the situation. As a Mom it is very difficult to hear those words and the road ahead has been filled with our "new normal"! With a husband that has Congestive Heart Failure and a precious child who is sick my life did a "flip flop"!

With God, our family and so many wonderful friends we walk the walk! We are blessed each day as we proceed on this journey.

Thank you for all your prayers and support!

"Believe In Your Dreams"

Good Morning Everyone! Things have been so busy around here, Fall is in the air and that means the Holidays are just around the corner. Where did this year go? Are the rest of you feeling the same way? I'm loving the new word dies that are on Frantic Stamper. Starting to get a good collection for all kinds of cards. This one is the "Believe" die.  It was a very simple card to make, simple isn't usually a word you hear out of Rozy! My motto is "more is better", got that from Anna Griffin. Describes me to a "T"!

I used a 5x7 card base, covered it diagonally with music Washi Tape, made a cute sentiment out of Anna Griffin's "Well Said" sentiments, added a little bling and some butterflies.

I cut out 3 of the words and then used some string to hang them from the sentiment! Voila.
Hope you enjoyed the cards. Please leave a comment when you stop by, I really appreciate your feedback. Jump on over to Frantic Stamper Face Book page, check that out and then hop on over to the Frantic Stamper Blog, lots of fun ideas and great inspiration.

I'm going to jump on over the Word Art Wednesday and enter this in their challenge for the week.

Wish me luck!! See you all soon. Rozy

Just Cards / Just Steam Punk / Volume 5 / Page 69

I am so excited! In the mail today I received the newest Just Cards / Just Steam Punk Magazine. I thought I must have ordered it and so leisurely sat down to start looking.

To my amazement there was an enclosed letter telling me that I had been published! Oh my gosh, so exciting!

This was my first attempts at Steam Punk, as Vintage is my forte! On the Vintage Steam Punk Plaque I used Frantic Stamper Vintage Dress Form, Geared & Solid Butterfly Dies (referenced below).

Thank you to Fran at Frantic Stamper and Kathy Berger the designer of the dies. Without their hard work and wonderful products these items would never have been created.

 Thank you all for stopping by to take a peek!

"Good Traveling Companion"

Good Morning Everyone! Can't believe it is time for school to start and Fall is on our doorsteps as we speak! Along with Fall comes Winter and Christmas quickly on its heels. I am so loving the teal color combinations right now, to me they seem so peaceful. This card was made for the Word Art Wednesday Challenge. I used Frantic Stamper's Horizontal Birch Panel & Large Peace Dove. Just loved the saying and felt that it paired well with the Dove. Blessing to you all for a joyful week. Will talk again soon.
