A Birthday Present for Us????? Thanks Jan!

This remarkable birthday girl made us each a wonderful beaded brooch for HER birthday!!! I am enclosing pics. Double click to see the detail. These are fantastic! The Purple with dragon fly is, of course, for April. The Yellow with llama is for Joan. The Pink with shell is for Pinky. The Blue with various cowboy embellishment is for Karen. The red with sunshine is for Mary.

Each is a pin and will be treasured by all of us.

THANK YOU, JAN!!!! We love you.

Karen's Work For The Day...

Karen doesn't fool around on Tuesdays! As you can see, she was busy making cards and ATCs. I love the sunshine one...although I admit I am partial to sunshines :>)) Karen can make card making look so easy and she uses everything she can find to produce beautiful cards. She recycles so many things to include in her work. I love to see what she will do next.

In this picture, she is picking out collars for her two buddies.

Kit and Marc's Art Work...

Mary said: I just have to send this picture of what Kit and Marc have been up to. They are doing something to surprise me and tonight I got to see half of it. We needed a gate for our new garden and they put their heads together and this is what they came up with for half of it. It is soooooo cooooooool! Marc is a welder and Kit welds too and between the two of them, they did the sunshine that I have put on things since I was in high school. I love it!...and I have only seen half of it :>))
