High Flying Wishes.....FMS705

 

It has been a busy week around here - I could use a little plane to fly around in. But I am probably better off sticking to my Ford Escape! 

Papers and dies from Concord and 9th and Stampin' Up! play very well together in my design today.  A closeup of the fabulous textured , glittery and shiny papers.......

Narelle has a great sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches! Hope you join us!

Hello Fall.....FMS704

Fall is my favorite time of year since it is three seasons in one - Summer/Fall/Winter.  We are still in the summer part enjoying the sunshine and watching for the early pops of color in the trees. Then it will be October in all of its colorful glory followed by dark, gloomy November when we await the first snow and the holiday season to brighten things up again!

In the meantime we have been busy around here doing final summery things with Emma and Will like celebrating Emma's 13th birthday! Her parents took her to Boston to a Benson Boone concert followed by a family and friends celebration at home.

Concerts have sure come a long way since I saw Sonny and Cher a zillion years ago!

Michele has a delightful sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches! Have fun with it!

Stamp Sets: Autumn Leaves (SU), Funny Bones (Riley&Co)

Ink: Distress 

Paper: Pecan Pie - Subtle Embossing Folder

Feeling Better....FMS702

 

My computer got out of the hospital in the nick of time to get this FMS card posted before we go live!  I only use my computer to blog once a week so I am glad it was an easy fix for under $100!  I am not a computer savvy person so the computer guy just took out the trash - got rid of everything I do not need and updated.  Also got rid of Norton Virus Protection - he said I don't need it at all for what I do.....which is probably a polite way of saying "I have no clue what this card thing is you have going on but you don't need to pay for Norton - the built in Microsoft protection is fine!"

So since my computer is feeling better I am feeling better - and definitely not so grumpy!  We had a great time at the county fair this week - always a fun outing before school starts.....and this is always a favorite ride.....
