Is it a miracle? A post from me? It's been a busy month as we are now starting to prepare for my brother's wedding, add report cards and pub submissions and throw in spring break for the kiddos...you get the point.
I truly have been looking forward to posting again. Just when I think life is going to slow down it gets busy again. So while I have a moment I planned to pop in with a post. I am setting a calendar goal of a minimum of 2 posts a week. Let's see if I can manage that and more :) It's about time I have some fun again. On that note I was also finishing up some of my stamp designs for the year...one in particular for this fall...it's so stinkin' cute!
Today's card is one of my favs. I love a combination of patterned paper and paper piecing. While paper piecing can be too fiddly for some I just love coordinating . In fact you can call me a junkie when it comes to that...I need the matching EVERYTHING in a collection. There was a post in the PTI forum about "completists" and I am SOO one of those people. I like matchy matchy things and I am not afraid to say that out loud. It's the perfectionist type A personality in me.

P.S. If you are a web designer and can assist me with my blog layout for a minimal cost I'd be happy to have your help. I have my blog banner and side bars ready to go but am having problems with blurry images. Not sure what is happening. Also I am looking to have side bars both left and right.
