T is for Tuesday- How did you know?

My loyal followers know it has taken me way longer to recover froths move than I had anticipated .

First birthday in my new place and I was inundated int he most wonderful way with gifts, good wishes and lots of love.

I was a bit down thinking gI would have to bake my own birthday cake, when the above appeared in the mail!

HUGE SHOUT OUT to BFF Chris!!!!

and others ( see my FB page).

An eggnog cake.

You have to eat it to understand.

Words cannot describe.

And how did she know I was wanting an electric kettle?

how did she know?

Truly it is the thought that counts, and presents prove you were thinking!!!

So as I embark on another thrip around the sun, I'm off to visit others blogging about their weekly food and drink.

It's the thought that counts- A Way With Words- New Quietfire Design Dies

I had no idea how much moving would affect me.

I thought as soon as I would unpack, life would return to normal.

Not!

Normal has changed, and that's a good thing.

If you haven't gotten a card from me recently, I'm glad you are reading this one, and knowing I am thinking of you and appreciate all your prayers and good wishes in this time of transition for me.

The good news is Quietfire Design is now having their new line of dies

manufactured by 

ElizabethCraft Designs.

I have a step out post today over at 

Quietfire Creations

and this post will bring you up to date on some of what I have been up to using the new dies.

15 minute wonders! using scrap backgrounds and Shimmer Sheetz

Post Cards with new stamps and Peel Off Stickers

Birthday cards.

I have to make 30 for my Women's Bible Circle 

so you'll be seeing a LOT more of this die!

I don't like to be sick or make get well cards either.

Luck of the Draw, I got Get Well Soon as my introduction die in this release!

I'm feeling more comfortable in my new design space and have found almost everything-except maybe my mind!!

Thanks for visiting and please leave you comments and questions and share your creations with the new dies!

(sing to the tune of, If you know Suzy)
If you know August, like I know August,
Oh, Oh , Oh what a month!
It's hot and sticky
and oh so icky.
But gosh, gee,
When you're born you can't be picky.
We're not sorry, we won't make a fuss.
Cause August is famous just because of us!
If you know August, like I know August,
Oh, Oh what a month!

Aside from my birthday and the countless others in my family August is the only month without a holiday!
And did I mention I have 30plus cards to make for Women's Bible Circle!

Shout out to Sissy Raspberry Jones for the lovely blue handmade in NC vase!
You will never hear me say no gifts!

I've entered the 21st century with a screen and keyboard.

My Liquid Pearls refuse to pearl. I added some water and they still peak- any suggestions?

Thanks ever so for visiting and I'm off to return the favor!
