Working on in The Studio

Sneak peek at what I'm working on in the studio today. Just a little something I'm whipping up. ;-)

And I want to share with you the most exquisite letter I received from my blog writing partner from Ireland. It was written on the back of this paper! I think I'm going to use the paper for another one of my birdhouses. The photos do NOT do it justice, trust me. It is absolutely beautiful.




And she was so kind as to send me some souvenirs of her beautiful country, Ireland. Now, we've been to Ireland and I've been wanting to do a post on that most magnificent of countries and will sometime very soon. We had a wonderful time driving through it.

  5. Hi Connie, thank for stopping by. You caught me in between chores getting rested for the next thing on my list. Grandkids week starts Saturday. I am getting organized and cleaned before the chaos begins.

    Love the beautiful rose on the papers. I haven't figured out what the paper is but I love the look.

    I love the beautiful papers and the Ireland momentos are so sweet. I do want to visit Ireland very much. One day...

    Back to work before I lose my energy and take a nap. HA! I love my naps.

    Happy days to you Connie.
    Hugs, Jeanne

  18. I keep leaving you a message and it goes to spam! I know all about the Face Book scam that took over myself and my oldest daughters Face Book accounts. There is nothing we can do about it. Facebook does not care. If they did they certainly would not ask me what my e mail password is! I posted a comment on my blog. Ther eis nothing else I can do if I can not leave a personal message for people that contact me regarding that. It just gives these jerks who scam/spam more power because I am sure they are enjoying reading the comments!
