My husband and I are moving furniture from our bedroom so that the carpet and carpet pad can dry out.  Our earthquakes may have caused a little more damage than expected.  The sprinklers have been turned on, and so we now have determined there is a leak somewhere which has leaked into the room and saturated the carpet.   PHHHTTT!  We have made a fort in the living room with our mattress and pillows until things can be put back.

Stay safe, stay healthy and stay positive.  Thanks so much for stopping by and hanging out for a few minutes with the Monday Montage group.  Your next stop is Dani - hit next to see what fabulous creation she has shared.  Or, if you are traveling the hop in reverse select the back button to see the what amazing projects Charlet has come up with.

In Case you get Lost...

Monday Montage 164

And we come to you with another Monday Montage Blog Hop from the social distancing corner of my office.  I hope that you see something you like and that you are inspired to create.


Mothers Day has come and gone and the weekend was beautiful.  I got my card sent off to my Mom in time for her to get it for Mothers Day.  We ran the normal bi-weekly errands/grocery run with our face masks and just enjoyed a relaxing weekend.

I have truly been trying to figure out this new normal.  I feel like it will still be a few months before we even get invited back to work.  So crazy to think about, but so lucky that we haven't had the virus at our house.  I keep thinking I will get back to my old schedule, but that ain't happening.  Decided to set some new goals and create a new norm schedule.

My card for this hop is all about Daisy's.   I keep thinking about Ed Sheeran's song Hearts don't Break Around Here...Daisies Daisies perched upon your forehead....


Stamps - Daisy Lane
Ink - Daffodil Delight, Versamark
Paper - Brights DSP, Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Garden Green, Granny Apple Green, Basic Black, Real Red
Accessories - Stitched Heart Framelits,  Large & Medium Daisy Punch, White embossing Powder,  Fabulous Flourish Dies, Wink of Stella


Stay safe, stay healthy and stay positive.  We will get through this and thanks so much for stopping by and hanging out for a few minutes with the Monday Montage group.  Your next stop is Dani - hit next to see what fabulous creation she has shared.  Or, if you are traveling the hop in reverse select the back button to see the what amazing projects Charlet has come up with.

We Create Mother May I


It is May!  I can't believe how time flies when your stuck at home.  I get so caught up in the day to day and trying to stay healthy mentally and physically I have reduced the amount of time I spend planning and counting down days to something exciting.  Then I start to lose track of how much time has really passed.  I can't believe we are wrapping up week 7 of social distancing/working from home.

One thing we celebrate in May is our Mothers.  I don't live close to my Mom - about 6 hrs drive.  I miss her fiercely.  I would love to stop in for a hug, watch a movie together, get advice or even a treat.  Thank goodness we have technology that allows closer contact than ever before.

My card is a reminder to my Mom that she is always on my mind.  In the good days and the days I need her most!  It is raining today - so the umbrealla seemed fitting for today  Keeping it Clean and Simple.


Stamps - Under My Umbrella
Ink - Black, Basic Gray
Paper - Whisper White, Real Red, Neutrals DSP, 
Accessories - Umbrella builder Punch, White bakers Twine, Silver Pearls, Layering Circle Dies, Many Marvelous Markers



 Stay safe, stay healthy and stay positive.  We will get through this and thanks so much for stopping by and hanging out for a few minutes with the We Create Crew group.  Your next stop is Tanya - hit next to see what fabulous creation she has shared.
