Thanks a Bunch!

The Pixie Dust December Kit Times Square Twenty Eleven has some beautiful papers.  I combined some of them to make my Thanks a Bunch card.  Love, love the color combination of pink and black.  The ribbons in this kit are gorgeous...you can see the two seam binding ribbons on this card.
  And look at the beautiful flower centers from Prima!  You get a whole package.  I used my Spellbinders dies and Martha Stewart punch to get the frames and border. 
 Go to Pixie Dust Paperie to see the kit and I hope you've been watching the Pixie Dust blog for great inspiration!

Also, a big thanks a bunch to my friend, Mika, who gave me these blog awards: 

So very sweet, Mika!  She has a cooking blog, so if you're looking for dinner recipes, check it out!  Oh, I almost forgot, I need to tell 8 things about myself.  Here goes:

1.  In June, my husband, Dennis and I will be married for 30 years!

2.  My daughter, Lauren, is grown and gone.  I miss her!

3.  We live in a house that is 101 years old.

4.  Our neighborhood is a Preservation area.

5.  I work at Triangle A & E, which is a reproduction company that also sells art supplies.

6.  My parents are retired and I get to see them a lot more now!

7.  Dennis and I love to go to antique stores (not that we need any more antiques).

8.  I'm very happy...thankful for my friends and family, my job, and the time I have to create!


I also get to pay the awards forward to 15 blogs!   What follows are some inspirational blogs:
