Easter is Almost Here

Yes, Easter is almost here and it's not too late to get some adorable cards to send to your friends and family...How cute is this card? Very! And if you'd like to see the other cards that I've just listed,feel free to stop by AnasCards.Com . I have put some in a 3 day auction, which will give enough time for these cuties to get to their destination. These are the last Easter cards that will be going to my eBay store and auctions.

If you live in Waynesville, NC and would like to purchase cards directly from "Moi" (Me) and save on the shipping and other fees, send me an email at ana@anascards.com

Enjoy!

Tween Dora?

What do you think of this? A tween Dora the Explorer? A new Dora with new friends because none of the other characters made the transition. I have read parents having mixed feelings on this new Dora -Who is NOT replacing the Dora we all know- that will be targeted to the next age group - 5 to 10 year olds- a lot of parents do not like the way she is dressed..."too grown up" "too sexy" are among the comments that have been made. Well, in a way it makes sense to have your child's favorite character grow up with them. From a marketing point of view, this is absolutely a genius idea. My daughter loves Dora and has learned a lot from the show. I think she'll like this new grown up Dora and might help her understand how she is too growing up. I understand that they have a line of Dolls and other interactive toys lined up with the big reveal. But, what do you think?

1st Park Visit...

Yesterday was such a beautiful day that after a nice work out, the 3 of us headed over to the park for some fun! This was our first park visit of the Spring. Miss Kelly had a blast, she made new friends and almost refused to leave when it came time to leave...only ONE thing made her change her mind...Sunday is Awana day and she would not miss THAT for the world!

Kelly earned her Cubbies Vest, book and bag yesterday and we could not be more proud of her...She leaned the verses required in only a couple of days after she started attending Awana and had been waiting for this moment for two weeks. We love you Kelly!

It was a great weekend!

New Sewn Cards

Here is a sneak peak at a couple of sewn cards that I made yesterday with some Hello Kitty stickers. These two have already been listed as auctions on eBay and they will not be duplicated. If anybody would like one I could always create something similar. I've had SO much fun creating cards using my new sewing machine that I literally have a pile of cards going...I'll list them as they get completed. Each card has taken a life of it's own with the embellishments, greetings and other special touches that make each card simply unique. I love making cards!

Some of the other cards that I made yesterday will go to my eBay store and others to local shops. It will most likely take me a couple of days to list the other cards, since I have a awesome computer with the speed of a snail -it gets the job done and I'm thankful for that-. Also, I did not forget about my studio spring cleaning and the goodies that I'll be listing to keep my ever-growing stash of scrapbooking/stamoing stuff...With the nasty bug that we've been fighting here at home, it all got postponed and slowly I'm trying to get back in to the groove of things. So, just stay tunned, I'll keep you all posted.

Thank You!
Have a blessed and fantastic day!

Weekend + New Tool

I had a fantastic blessed and happy weekend! Add to this the excitement of a new tool...a sewing machine! It didn't start all that well, since the first one broke and had to take it back to the store. Well, I have not been able to stop using it since I got it out of the box! It has been SO much fun, I don't want to stop...and the new ideas for projects just keep popping in my head! As soon as I can, I will post pictures and a product review.

Gotta run, I hear a sewing maching calling me!
