Imagine my surprise today when I was checking my e-mail and had an e-mail from my daughter in Iraq!!! She is doing good - tired and ready to rest - but she arrived at Camp Buehring in Kuwait around 6 a.m. this morning. Her major complaint is the heat. The showers are basically in a trailer with 8 stalls which by the time they were in there at 10:00 was a sauna and miserably hot. She said it made the outside air temp (which must have been in the 100s by then) feel cool when they walked outside! Then a few hours later, I received a phone call from Ashley! Wow! I didn't think I'd hear from her for a couple of weeks - not the very day she arrived. Sonny was not home at the time so she tried to call him on his cell phone. I think she taught him a lesson though. He didn't recognize the number on his phone so didn't answer!
OK - now a few cards. My Texas friend, Margaret, was here a few hours today. She & Graham are babysitting their grandson in Charlotte. When they took him to school, they came out to visit. Gra went skeet shooting with Sonny and Margaret & I visited and made a few cards. She worked on the cards from club last month and I made a couple of Christmas cards.
Here are the cards my club will be making on Thursday:
This cutie is the new Owl Punch and the Greenhouse Gala DSP. I used the little pearls for his eyes.
This is a simple card using Funky Forest wheel and the luscious Pear In Color! I wheeled the trees in green and used my brown marker to make the tree trunks.
This is the Halloween card they will make using Wicked Cool stamp set. The card is Rich Razzleberry with Old Olive spider web made with the embossing folder from the Summer Mini. I rubbed a little Glimmer Mist over the web. The pumpkin is also a die cut.
