 96 degrees here today - high UV warnings for outside, too.

ready for some cooler temps!

some fun over the weekend....

 finally decided to try out my new air-dry clay and frame molds......

the largest measures about 3 x 4.  they are addicting!!

And this arrived over the weekend.  I'm back in business!  Decided to get a new ruler too.  Mine keeps disappearing.....

worked on the final bits and pieces of the corner pile.  Anything remaining will be going to the recycling bin.

And, finally,  what is going on there?  Snow????Again???? It better be the last storm of the season.  

We don't miss it and do not need to experience it again.

Stay safe!

two of a kind..

 I had no idea.....so got to work quick!

a few of my favorite oldies -  stamps, paper, and punch!

found a Peep and made a pattern.

this must be 12 years old - at least!

And at this price, I didn't mind cutting the word up to make Peep!

And our neighbor won 1st place, several times over (these is just a few) at the Rose Show.

We are soooo lucky to reap all the beautiful benefits of his green thumb. His garden is directly across the street from us.

Smells beautiful on our porch too.

1st place in the category

and

Best in Show!

Spring has sprung here in Tucson!  Hope its coming your way soon.

Wow, just checked out Michigan temps - Spring is definately there today! Enjoy!!

dollar tree fun!

 bought these and made these.....

fun afternoon.

still have enough for about 90 more....

another good bye (buy)

 well, I had to say good bye to a great buy today.  My Sizzix Sidekick died......

it served me well these past several years and I will replace is asap!

I didn't think I would use it as much as I did.  It is a great tool.

will be leaving this.

and heading to this.  

soon.
