Guy'



Another LO! This one is of our cat Guy'. Guy's breed is a main coon so he is HUGE but his personality is that of the cowardly lion from The Wizard of Oz. He is just a big sweetheart.

Through A Child's Eyes



Yay, another LO! I love simplicity and clean lines and this is a perfect example. The picture is of me and my friend/business partner Kazan's daughter, Ashton.  Little Ashton's eyes are a beautiful piercing blue, hence the title of the LO "Through A Child's Eyes".

I ♥ U





Can you believe it I made a LO!!! I am a LO maker originally and just recently fell in love with card making. I adore them both but lately missed the whole LO experience, so I thought I would start again. I also made s little gift box full of puppy treats that matched the LO.

Our neighbors recently added a puppy to their family and I could not resist taking pictures of that sweet puppy dog face!
