Have been busy with house renovations, work, crafting and of course my family. This past June we had to put our beloved dog of 17 years down, he had developed a growth in his mouth and then in July I became a great aunt to a beautiful little girl. I'm looking forward to catching up with everyone as well as making some new friends here.<br />Talk to you soon.Sandra's Stuffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11044737871107598976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2386043249018467844.post-49073299888372938222010-07-21T18:20:00.000-07:002010-07-21T18:21:55.689-07:00July 21Well, it was too hot to work outside today, so my buddy and I made another scrapbooking roadtrip.

Got some blinds cleaned and while hubby & I were hauling in a new book case for our son I managed to drag it over a couple of my toes tearing off some chunks of skin. I hope the rest of my cleaning is less disasterous or I might have to resort to alot of crafting, lol! I aim to get alot of it done before I go back to work, hopefully the end of August!Sandra's Stuffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11044737871107598976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2386043249018467844.post-83028973416669476472010-07-02T19:14:00.000-07:002010-07-02T19:20:46.395-07:00Friday, July 2nd<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr7zWQg4VbFU1JIuKTkyDVH4Vz_Zt9r2oEuvZTOWkXNyWNZnOaCz9SgLHC7Ri638GQu5CK6f0eQKUvjfJSkG_IqAf-aIaVX4_Snan8VuM-e4qjA4_arXtmatvWfr_5qRJnMX9qBhf3-zGk/s1600/Nancy's+trapeze+card,+resized.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 290px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 320px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5489498914882319746" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjr7zWQg4VbFU1JIuKTkyDVH4Vz_Zt9r2oEuvZTOWkXNyWNZnOaCz9SgLHC7Ri638GQu5CK6f0eQKUvjfJSkG_IqAf-aIaVX4_Snan8VuM-e4qjA4_arXtmatvWfr_5qRJnMX9qBhf3-zGk/s320/Nancy's+trapeze+card,+resized.jpg" /></a><br /><div>Here is a sample of a card that I recently finished.

This is all new to me so please bear with me if I make a few blunders! Now, a bit about me. I'm married to my wonderful hubby and best friend and together we have 3 grown children; 2 daughters both married to wonderful young men that we are proud to call our son-in-laws. We also have a "Special" son who's Down's Syndrome. I have tried almost every craft that's come along; my current favorites are scrapbooking, cardmaking, papercrafts, crocheting, knitting, x-stitching and reading.</div><div>Today is Canada Day and hubby and I took in some Canada Day festivities in our area. Looking forward to the fireworks this evening.</div><div>I hope you enjoy visiting my blog and come back again soon.</div>Sandra's Stuffhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11044737871107598976noreply@blogger.com4
