Zoo Day

Even though it is super cold today,  we were blessed with a warm day on Easter Sunday so we took a trip to the zoo. I went with my husband and his grandson. Our trip really made me miss the days when my daughters were young enough to take to the zoo and seeing the delight in their eyes as they were able to meet animals from all over the world.  Philadelphia Zoo is America's first zoo and you can tell that the staff really loves the animals.  There have been many upgrades to the Zoo since my daughters were little and I really had a good time.  Money and time well spent.

Pocket Letters

I got my first pocket letter yesterday from my scrapping sister Barb.  I was so excited!  I can't wait to use every thing in here, perfect for cards or to accent a scrapbook page. I am not usually one to jump on a scrapping fad but I must admit that I sent a couple out to my friends and yes they are addictive.  I am even thinking about joining a couple of swaps. Have you jumped on the pocket letter craze yet?

My Other Obsession

True Confession- I spend a lot of time on Instagram aka The Gram and if you are really cool you just call it IG, lol. If you are on IG let me know so that I can follow you :)

Back at it......

No really! This is no April Fools joke. I hate letting so much time pass by between blog posts and to be honest I don't even have a good excuse. I have not been scrapbooking for a very long time and I really miss it. I haven't even been card making :(. My usually unobservant husband even commented today that my card rack looks pretty bare, lol. So I took a deep breathe today and I am going to try to refocus. Good news is that my treats and party planning endeavors are taking off. The waves of orders are very unpredictable, I go from no orders for 3 weeks to about five in two weeks.  I am still learning but I absolutely love doing it. So for right now I am going to participate in some Sketch challenges especially since a few of my scrappy friends like Wendy, Rochelle, Brenda and Monique are on the design team. These ladies always inspire me and their passion for scrapping is unwavering.  This is the Sketch and the details can be found on their blog here. I am challenging my self to complete this layout by Saturday April 4th, wish me luck!
