Quilled pumpkin card

 I made the above card...following a tutorial on Split coast stampers.

I wanted to try it because I would like to learn how to do quilling...

I thought that this might be a good card to try quilling for the first time...

PS.  I checked my spam folder and I was surprised to see spam in my folder from years 2012, 2013, and 2014???  Has this happened to anyone else?   some of the comments were from blog owners that I don't think even have blogs anymore?  I didn't click on the links...so I'm not sure.  I'm always afraid that they might not be safe.

Pumpkin card

 Hello from Jill...

Sorry, I know it's been a while.  I almost forgot how to post...

I made this card for the Twisted Sister Challenge at Split Coast stampers.

This month's theme was to put pumpkins on our card.

I didn't have any pumpkin stamps, or pumpkin dies...so I used some of my Graphic 45 paper to make my card.  Just added a ribbon and some dimensionals.  

Hope to catch up with my commenting.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.

Blessings,

Waiting for her Prince Charming...

These cards were made with digi images that my husband found on the Internet...at a Free coloring book pages site...(and again I forgot to look up the link...I will try to add it later when I find it...)
He colored the images for me with copics.

The first image reminded me a little bit like Cinderella waiting for her Prince Charming.

Sorry, I have not been around lately...Many reasons for my absence, Computer problems...busy with appointments and away from home for a couple of days...

My computer is old and when I started having problems a few days ago...I thought it bit the dust...but my "handy" hubby worked on my computer and it seems to be okay now.

I will try to catch up on my visiting when I can...

Hope everyone is having a good week.

Thank you for visiting my blog

Remembering my Mother in law

The pin did not scan that well, it looks cuter in real life
I belong to a group at yahoo, and each week they have a theme day. This week, the theme was scarecrows. The theme made me remember the little lapel pin that my Mother-in-law made for herself. My sister-in-law asked me if I wanted it and then passed on to me. I treasure it. My Mother-in-law was an excellent seamstress, and taught me how to sew (I don't sew any more though)---I can't remember the last time I sewed. smile... she was also great with cross stitch and showed me how to do that too. I wish I could still do cross-stitch. (These grandmother eyes won't let me do it anymore) With all the cross-stitch I have done in the past, I still can't picture myself doing a project like she did. Tiny little stitches on this pin, and all those tiny beads.

This is for the Twisted sisters challenge at Split Coast Stampers TSC1022

For the challenge you were to make an Autumn card and use fall colors...My Iris folded pattern came from a book that I purchased.
