Update on Kitchen

Here are the latest pictures of the kitchen. It is not completely done, but it is getting a lot closer and we can actually use it. We have actually had dinner at home the past 3 nights and plan to for a while. Hopefully the final touches will be done this week sometime and then I can start finding a home for everything.

A Couple Cards to Share

Here are a couple of cards that I made for Valentines. I also went to a Prima card class today taught by Eva Dobilas. I made four cards at the class but haven't had a chance to take a picture of them yet. I will try to get that done tomorrow and share. I really enjoyed the class and am looking forward to the opportunity to attend future classes taught by her.

A little scrappiness

This is a card that I made with one of the MS deep cut border punches that I got from my DD Kristi. I stole away a few minutes to try it out in the midst of all of the work in the kitchen. Hopefully I can get a little more scapping in over the next couple of days.

Coming Along

The kitchen is starting to come along. They actually started installing the cabinets today and have a couple more days of work, but it is starting to look more and more like a reality.

This is a view of the cabinet with the granite on it.

Here is a picture of the new window... it still isn't finished with all of the trim and everything, but it is in.

More Progress In the Kitchen

Everything is now gone from the window side of the kitchen. They are doing the electrical work this week and painting this coming weekend ready for the window and cabinet install next Monday. It is getting closer and I am so ready for it to be done now.

Trying to Get My Mojo Back

This is a card that I made for one of the birthdays I need a card for this month. I used the sketch over at Mojo Monday hoping to find my mojo that seems to have been missing for a while. I hope that it is coming back!

Demolition has started

As you can see the demolition has started on our kitchen. We have the one side torn out and Barry is starting to do some electrical work prior to the new cabinets coming in. We have ordered a new garden window and it is scheduled for delivery on the 21st of January, therefore, they will probably start the installation of everything around the 25th.

During the midst of getting everything out of the kitchen, I still tried to get a couple of cards done this week and here is what I got done:

I tried my hand at crocheting flowers and this is one that I did. I think that I would like to find another pattern to try out, but for now this one is working. I also tried using the little alphabet stickers for the first time and like how those turned out as well.



I also tried using the sewing machine on a card again. This is what I did.
