Luna….before and now

Awwww such a cutie, isn't she :)

This is our cat Luna.
We adopted her last August.
The photo on the left is when we first got her….the second photo is from the other day.
Kristy took these photos of her.
I love that she is in the same position…she is behind a chair at the front window.
She is a bit chubbier in her Now photo…..It may be time to cut down on her treats, lol.

Just thought I would give you a smile this Friday :)

I hope you all have a very Creative Day :)

Abundance of Flowers

About 10,000 or so more and I should be good to go :)

For the last couple of days, I have been making 100's….or at least it feels like 100's of these tiny little flowers.
These are part of one of the Bridal Shower projects I am doing for Ashley's Shower.

Poor Ashley was really sick with a bad cold this week and stayed home on Tuesday.
Tyler, Ashley's fiance, was off work, so took care of her.
He had to work the rest of the week, so I asked Ashley "Well who will take care of my baby?"
Ashley's response…"Mommy :)"
So I brought Ashley cold remedies.
I also brought all of the supplies to make these tiny flowers as I took care of my Ashley ;)
But I also put her to work ;)
Since we were both just sitting on the couch, I got her to punch the tissue paper and I made the flowers….all while we watched some shows.

Off to make some more tiny flowers.
I hope you all had a very Creative Day :)

Spring Pocket Letter

Yesterday I shared with you a few Pocket Letters that I received…today I am going to share with you a Pocket Letter that I had made :)
This one was for a swap I joined on a private FB site (I think it has only 15 members).
Tara and I were paired up.
We didn't have a theme, but I decided to do a Spring theme as the snow is gone and the birds are singing :)

All of these papers are from my scraps.
The pattern paper is from a kit from the first Crop & Create event I attended…I made many layouts out of this kit and still have enough paper for another 1 or 2 Pocket letters or cards :)

I was inspired to make flip cards from Elise from "Feed Your Craft"
Elise attaches her flip page with washi tape.
I picked up some blank note cards from a dollar store, cut them down to size and placed them inside of the the pocket :)
I love love how these look and turned out.

Here is how I packaged up Tara's pocket letter.
I sprayed the doily with some mists to match the colours in the pattern paper.
I then made a banner with her name on it :)

I forgot to take photos of the goodies I put in the back of this Pocket Letter…but never fear, I made a video and share everything about this fun little project :)
If you would prefer to watch the video on my YouTube channel (as it shows the whole screen) just click on the link "Tracy's Treasures24"

I hope you all had a very creative day :)
I have been working on a project for Ashley's Bridal Shower….hoping it works out and looks better than it does right now ;)

Happy Mail…Pocket Letters Recieved

Here are a few Pocket Letters the I have received in the mail :)
I just love Happy Mail :)

This one is from Stefanie (LB Crafter).
This is the second one she has made for me :)
I love how she wrapped it up….cute tissue paper with my name on it.

And here is her pretty pocket letter for me.
Such fun summer colours.
I love the teeny tiny banner..and the beautiful charm she made as well.

Here are the treats she included in the pockets.
I love that she added faux money from Belgium.
Thank you so much Stefanie :)

This next Pocket Letter, I received from Addie :)
I met Addie on a Pocket Letter FB site.
I like that she put my name in gold sparkly letters :)

Here is the back of Addie's Pocket Letter :)

Last but not least is the one Tara made me :)
I met Tara on a different FB site, we were in an arranged swap.
Tara put her treats in the front of her pockets.
I love the quotes she stamped on here…oh yes, and the chocolate, teehee.

I have a couple more to share, but I will save those for another day…..like after Becky posts hers, teehee.

Onto My Day:
I had a couple of my friends over this afternoon to create.
I worked on a couple Pocket Letters.
I misplaced a Pocket Letter that I was working on a couple of weeks ago…
Imagine the stuff I could get done, if I didn't keep misplacing things, lol.  I could conquer the world, lol.

I hope you all had a very creative day:0

My day in photos...cottage addition.

I heard it was suppose to rain for most of the weekend :(

So what is a crafty girl to do.....bring a few supplies to occupy her creative mind ;)

Add caption

The small pink tote is my clothes....it may have some crafty things shoved in there as well ;)

I brought my craft tool tote, planner, fauxbonichi, magazines, a novel, coloured pencils with gamsol and washi tape. Just in case you were wondering, teehee. 

But it didn't rain, so we did some outside work. 

See the fallen pine needles covering the walkway to the beach?

Not only did I sweep those off, I also edged the blocks by cutting the sod away from them with this fun tool. 

Now doesn't that look better :) 

My FIL and his wife went to Ignace yesterday and brought Wayne and I a package of these delicious treats.

So good.  

The restaurant was open so Wayne and I went for lunch. 

We each had a hamburger and shared an order of onion rings. 

I was way over my calorie count for the day. Wayne said it was the few onion rings I had...I think it was the hamburger, onion rings and that 310 calorie cream horn, lol

So to compensate for my heavy calorie day, I made sure I put in a few more steps than usual. 

Okay, maybe more than a few :) 

I hope you enjoyed spending the day with me :) 

It is now pouring rain....hmmm read my book or create?

I hope you all had a very create day :)

Tracy :)

Some goodies.

 I forgot to share what I found at Michael's yesterday when Heather, Kristy and I went out shopping.

I used my coupon for the Memento inks. I really like the deep colours to these. How fun are these corrugated tags?! 

And I have a project in mind for these cute birds on a wire cards :) 

We went to the mall as Heather wanted to look for a swimsuit and Kristy some tank tops...but these caught my eye 

Now aren't they missing something......like a heel, lol

I suggested to Ashley to wear them with her wedding dress, she wouldn't have to worry about her heels getting stuck in the ground. 

I think she decided against it ;). 

Kristy and Heather went for a walk this afternoon and brought me back these beautiful blossoms. 

I brought them to camp with me so I can enjoy them all weekend. 

Such sweet daughters I have......even if they did steal them off of a neighbour's tree ;)

I hope you all had a creative day today :)

Tracy :)

I scream, you scream, we all scream for…...

I like ice-cream….but I don't "love" ice-cream.
But you give me a banana split, I can down that sucker in 10 seconds flat, lol

I was out most of the day and didn't eat lunch.
I had a very light supper…a salad with a bit of chicken in it.
When Wayne and I went to get some camp groceries, I suggested we go to Dairy Queen.
Can you believe I am still under my calorie intake for the day?!
Even if it is only 30 calories under, teehee.

I hope you all had a very creative day :)

Tracy :)
