Monday I received a ticket for driving without my lights in the rain. I had no idea that was an offense worthy of a ticket. Sure, a warning perhaps. I was driving below the speed limit (as indicated by the officer on the citation), and it was only spritzling, it wasn't even raining. Ugh! I'm over it!
Then on Tuesday I got bit in the face by a friend's dog. He's a little beagle, and we've met many times before. I was down at his level and he was lapping up the attention. Then all of a sudden he snapped me on the cheek. It's not a big bite. No medical attention needed. It was a big shock, though. It kinda rattled me.
So, the moral is for me NOT to leave the house. I'm staying home today and finishing up projects that need my attention ... like blogging! I never posted the crafty goodness that was created at our last craft group in February.
The assignment was to make TAGS for any occasion:
This is a deceiving picture. "J" made 2 different styles using the black and white. They are so cute and go with the b-day paper she brought to keep us coordinated as only she can. "C" made 6 different tag styles ... (overachiever! Ha!). Sadly, I haven't put them all together so I'll show the one I absolutely love! How cute is that little apron?!
These are my tags. I don't remember what was going on that week, but I didn't even get them finished. Cute paper that would have been finished off nicely with some fun baker's twine or jute.
Then we had The Challenge:
"J" found some fun packages of nature items in the dollar bin and was intrigued. Look at the variety in that one package! It was overwhelming at first.
What was most fun was to see what "J" came up with. She is not the "pretty" type of designer. She's all about cute and coordinating. Look at her card (on left) with the pretty ribbon and layers upon layers. It came out so nice. "C" was ingenious with her use of embossing (on right). So simple, but so pretty. Love them both!
I wasn't able to mass produce my cards since I used Bo Bunny paper, and couldn't find more in our area! So there was more variety in my offerings. Still I really like that paper! Very fun with very little work. Gotta love digital work!

Sorry about your week...I knew that about the rain, but that's only because I lived in Oregon! Apparently it's a law most places...which I sometimes forget about!
Can you come live by me. We would have great fun together.
Craft group huh? Sounds like something I need to get more details on. :) I need something like that around here!
