How do you cheer yourself up?

Hello friend!

Well, today I should have left for Nashville, Tennessee to go to Stampin' Up's Leadership Conference.  I wasn't able to get registered however, because it sold out very quickly.... so my flight left without me.  :(    All considered, with the weather, I may not have been able to go even if I had a registration... but I'm still a little sad.   I have some simple plans to cheer myself up over the next couple of days, so you'll be seeing some of the results (stamping, sewing, shopping)

Here are some cards I made this afternoon.  The first one  uses a new set from the Occasions Mini Catalog called "Sew Suite".  As soon as I saw this set, I knew I had to have it, and then I saw a card made by Michelle Zindorf and had to copy it!  (click her for her amazing blog)



I'm posting a second "Sew Suite" card on my Facebook page, also.


Now, if you are a Browns fan, you might find the rest of my post a little disturbing....

Did you know that four out of our five family members are Pittsburgh Steeler fans?  (Nick was corrupted as a small child into being a Browns fan by my brother)  Well, this Saturday at 4:30 p.m. we have a playoff game against the Ravens, and I wanted to send Hannah a Pittsburgh card...  then ended up making three more cards for friends who have the good taste to cheer for my Steelers!  I'll post a couple here, and also on my Facebook page.

Actually, I'm just realizing that if you are a Browns fan, you have a dilemna this weekend.  Do you cheer for your arch rival (my fabulous Steelers) or for the team Art Modell created after ripping football from the heart of Cleveland (the dreaded Ravens)?  Hmmmmm.

                                                                    Hannah's card!

Dave's card!

I hope you enjoy these!
