RAK's needed! Please!

I have a very important request for all my readers! I am requesting RAK (Random Act of Kindness) cards for a sweet dear little girl named Mikayla Frazier. She is 5 years old and is undergoing 70 chemo treatments for a brain tumor. Yes...I did say 70 treatments! She has had a bumpy road and she and her family could use some encouragement. You can check out her caringbridge site at: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/mikaylafrazier

Thank you so much for taking the time to send a card to this family! Their address is:

The Frazier Family
1505 Edgewood Dr.
Kendallville, IN 46755

Lovely Christmas Cards!









I just wanted to share some of the handmade Christmas cards I have received in the mail. They are great! Thanks!
I'm not sure how to type the text next to the picture, so....here is the credit roll! Lisa Stuckey stamped the red Merry card, Valerie Strycker made the Christmas Blessing card, Jill Floyd made the purple snowflake card, Tracey Ihrie made the Season of Joy card, Nikki Holt made the snowflake card, and Krystal Gresock made the blue penguin card.
Thank you so much for these cards! I know how much work it takes to make them and I appreciate it! I didn't get mine done this year... at least not yet! Thanks for looking! :)

Teacher Gifts




Hi Everyone! I just wanted to share what I made for teacher gifts this year. The are monthly calendars that are held in a slim jewel CD case. I can't get all the months in the case at once so I put them in a plastic bag. They were pretty easy to make. I bought the calendar template from http://kwernerdesign.com/blog/stuff-to-buy/. I love her simple, clean designs. It is snowing like crazy here! What a nice day to bake cookies and work on Christmas cards! Have a great day!

Turkey Talk


I know that Thanksgiving is past...but I wanted to share the cutest card that my sister-in-law received for Thanksgiving. It was made by Tina DeWitt. He's a little worn from sitting in my kitchen a week waiting for his picture to be taken, but what a cute turkey!!!!! I've seen paper twilling...but not like this! Great card Tina!!!
