Happy Fall, Y'all

Happy Fall. I am enjoying the great weather that we are having. The temps are still in the high 70's, low 80's.  It has been a great Sunday and had a chance to get in craft room to create. Hope you get a chance to create.

Be Blessed and be a blessing to others.

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Sunday!

Hello and Happy Sunday!

I purchased 10 lbs of freshly picked Blueberries yesterday and now I need to either prepare and freeze them in mini-pies or freeze them for later use in cooking. I will freeze at least 5 lbs because I don't want to spend all day and night baking! I am looking forward to tasting the next batch of blueberries from this grower because these blueberries are really good.  The last pick of the season should be even better! One of the joys of summer is fresh fruits and vegetables. Yum!!!

I enjoyed seeing this visitor in my garden...

Thanks for stopping by and wishing you a spectacular week!

Hello Weekend!

It's Friday and that means the weekend is here! What do you have planned? There is no rain scheduled until Monday so the weekend is ripe for gardening and grilling. Yay!!!

One of my brothers is an avid bowler. I made this shadow box card with him as my inspiration.

Happy Father's Day!

Now to get busy making cards for the other two. Thanks for stopping by and I love reading comments.

XOXO,
Shirley

Squirrels love Krispy Kreme Donuts

June 5th was National Doughnut Day and I had no donuts. Hmm. My favorite places, Glazed and Infused and Stan's Donuts are all sold out by now. (Got to hit these places early). Okay, I am going to Jewels any way so why not pick up a box of Krispy Kreme? Wrong!!! The donuts were terrible!  Into the trash can they go.

My husband was on his way out and was taking the garbage with him. He put the trash bag on the back porch because he forgot something and had to come back inside. About 10 minutes later, he went back to back porch to take the trash bag to garbage can. I heard a 'wow' and ran to the porch to see that the trash bag had a big hole and its contents were scattered about the porch. I looked around and saw a squirrel running off with a whole doughnut in its mouth!

Just a reminder that someone's garbage is another's treasure. 

Racing to the Finish Line

Happy Sunday to all my scrapping peeps! Thanks for stopping by. This week at the Outlawz CAS challenge, it's all about sports and masculine cards.  My husband, like most men, is into a lot different types of sports. However, he has always loved auto racing, especially Formula 1. I have become fond of this sport also , attending F1 races at Indy, Detroit, Elkhart Lake, Milwaukee and Chicago. Wish I could have been in Monte Carlo recently to see Lewis Hamilton race the streets of Monte Carlo . LOL. I would love to see any F1 race in Monte Carlo. Hamilton did not win that race but if I were there, he may have. At any rate it would still have been party over there. Yay!! What a beautiful  place and an awesome race.

This is my last week as a guest designer at the Outlawz.  It was a great experience for me. Thanks for the opportunity. Here is my submission for the challenge.

Why not head over to The Outlawz and enter this week's challenge HERE .  Hope you like it and you are racing to a great finish! Love ya and see you soon. I love to see your comments so please leave one.
