Greetings from Ponca City, Oklahoma! I am here with the family for several days to visit Ken's parents. Hope to get caught up on computer work. Lord knows I need to!
No worries – my parents will be at my house collecting the Cards for Kate. They are coming in so fast now – amazing.
Thought I would share a few random things. You know me – I can be very random. 
First, I noticed that Stamp Your Art Out in Cincinnati is having the CUTEST kids class. I thought I would share the info here in case anyone is interested. It is the Crafty Kids Camp on Saturday, October 3 from 2:30-4:30pm. Should be fun. For kids 8 and up and it is only $15 with all supplies provided. (I am not teaching it. Call 513-793-4558 if you are interested.) Check out this cute project they will make… click to see it bigger.
Thought I would share some fun things from 2Peas this mid-month…
- Love THIS page from Shannon. Her little guy looks so much like Colin here… and I love the owl she used.
- Look at THESE cute Halloween bags. Love them!
- I have on word for THIS page by Nichol: Wowsers.
- Oh my word, THIS makes me want a baby girl. (In 5 years.)
- Another stunning one HERE. Wow.
I also did a few things for 2Peas this mid-month. First, here is a warm card I did with alcohol inks. I first stamped that background with embossing ink and heat embossed white on glossy white paper. I then applied lots of alcohol ink. After drying, I lightly sanded to reveal the background even more. For more info on the project, click HERE.

Next up is a package of candy I made for Colin. Just something fun to do – I gave this to him on his first day of school. Click HERE for more information…

Here is a paper pumpkin I did – with Colin's help. Easy and fun. Click HERE to learn more.

As for TV… I watch The Good Wife last night. I liked it. The cast is great – may want to check it out.
Off to sleep. I love sleep and miss it dearly. In fact, I have been talking about taking up a new hobby. (Since my hobby is my job, really.) I told Ken I think napping would be a great hobby. Inexpensive, right? I started my new hobby today with a 2 hour nap this afternoon.
Night!

Ah, thanks for the wonderful links! Sleep is soo important! Tonight my little girl slept all night through for the first time in her life!! That means I had more than 4 hours sleep for the first time in 14 months!!! I feel soo refreshed! It would be a perfect hobby for me, too…

Thanks for sharing your designs. I loved your warm card so much from class, I picked up all the products to make it. Going to get the stamp at some point.
Napping…I could so use a dalily nap. I am really happy you are finding time with family and a few naps. Oldest DD is getting up at 5:30 am to get ready for school. I am trying to adjust to this new wake up time:( She is age 9 and has to catch the jr high bus.
Enjoy your stay.
