This was a card that SueB did last week for her 3 for $6. Bev and I had to look up the translation. What it says is.....always wear underwear....LOL . Sorry the inside isn't a good shot.

Peeps

Thought I would show you another page that Donna made. This was James at Easter '08.
He did get his chocolate bunny for Easter '09.

scrapbooking

We have started to scrapbook around the Artfull Hand. The above picture is a page that my newest employee, Donna, has done. Of course the star of the page is my grandson James.

Later in April Donna will be leading a class in peek-a-boo pages. It is a really fun technique that also can be used in card making. Go to www.theartfullhand.com to check out the class and samples.

I've been sick

sorry I haven't posted in a while. In the blogs I follow I get agitated at the owners when they don't post regularly. And now I find myself doing that. Well I do have a good excuse. I've been sick.
On April 5th we flew to Atlanta to meet up with friends and have a family re-union with my son, D-I-L and grandson. We spent several days visiting and enjoying the outdoors. During that time I felt like something was brewing. By the time we came home I knew that something had attacked me. On Easter Sunday I got up and almost immediately went right back to bed, spent the whole day there. Monday and Tuesday was worse. I think it is the flu. This will be the second time I have had it in less then 6 months. I was sick at Christmas too. (Hmmmm, major holidays connection.)
In addition to being sick I was in a tax prep crunch. I am trying to research auto insurances and our health insurance premium notice has gone astray. All big ticket items. Then yesterday I noticed that our dishwasher at home isn't draining. Great - add another problem to the pile.
Okay so now you know where I have been and what I have been doing. In the next entry I will tell you what is happening up at the shop....
