Good morning! I had to laugh at today’s blog post. It looks like I’m sending someone a text and I’m one of the last people on earth who does not text! I know! I just have no time. I can’t text at work and if I’m home, call me! If I’m out, email me! Truth be told, my cell is usually dead in my purse. That’s just the way I roll :) I’m old school and love it :) Now having said that, I LOVE these sweet text-like sentiments from My Favorites Things. I’m using their sketch from last week to create a fun card that would suit any dear friend. Now onto some fun finds I want to share with you. Fellow Verve Diva Teresa has been enabling me lately with her fabulous lace trim. I couldn’t resist one late night (up with my cough a few weeks ago) so ordered a whole bunch from The Funkie Junkie site! Here’s the stash that came yesterday along with some white burlap and corrugated cardboard (I can’t believe I bought cardboard!! LOL But I did!).
Also, about a month ago, I found this fabulous little caddy at Winners/HomeSense. It’s a discount store in Canada that’s similar to TJ Max in the States. Right now I’m using it for a card display, but it’s so versatile that it might be used another way at some point.
Thanks so much for stopping by. Reports are done, but there are still a ton of things to do before the school year is officially over. But I can see that sweet summer just around the corner!

Oh I do love that little shelf! I am always looking for fun items like that and then my hubby looks at me and says, "And where are you gonna put that?" Men, they just don't understand that I will find a spot!
I got an old coke carrier and gesso'd it last month and it is filled with trinkets in the 24 slots. LOVE it.
Have a great summer!

Darling card! I always admire stitching, probably because I don't do it myself. Great background for that typewriter too. I'm probably the last person not to own a cell phone!
I was not a texter until this year and I must admit I love it :) Great for a quick update or for touching base. Not my main mode of communication but a fun one :) However, nothing better than a phone call or face to face conversation!
Had to laugh when I saw the type writer as I remember those...oh my! Cute card using it.
Yeah for report cards being done!!!! Just 9 more days!! Hang in there :) DD is done today - eeek!!
What do you mean, you're old school?! I thought you were all over that new Timeline on FB ;) HAHAHA! I haven't changed mine either. I refuse.
This texty card, though, is super sweet! You're killing me with all that stitching....makes me wish I knew how to thread my bobbin so I could get my darn machine working (it keeps jamming despite reading the directions, I swear...)
Your new goodies have me laughing....it's funny what we find ourselves paying money for, hey?! Crafters are fantastic! If only I would USE my goodies...
I don't go anywhere without my iPhone, so this textspeak is right up my alley! 2Cute! ;)
Love all your fun purchases...makes me want to shop! LOL!
Serious enabling going on her Moe. I love that white burlap...that is so cool. Can't wait to see it on one of your gorgeous cards.
Love the UR2CUTE on top of the typewriter...fabulous!
Old school is cool, right?! That's what I say anyways ;D
BTW: you didn't buy cardboard. You bought an essential crafting item! LOL!
Hugs!
