I'm running just a little bit behind today....

I'm sorry for the lack of posting ~ but I'm not sure that many of you know I run an MSN site also - and go figure, the name is "Cards Made by Hand". Well, MSN has decided to shut their groups down. This is a major decision I'm sure. There are a lot of groups out there and I'm sure that they are all thinking like me "what to do?"

I have found a new site and I've been working on it. MSN won't be pulling the plug until February of next year but I want to get the new site up and running before then. So that's part of what I've been doing. The other - well, I've been bitten by the "spring" cleaning bug as my hubby would say. Just getting things outside in order for the fall and winter months. Been cleaning windows - yes, I've been cleaning windows. Ok, they are the ones in the craft room-but they are still windows. Putting the flannel sheets on the beds. Stuff like that.

I have been sitting in the craft room for a bit today and I've got one card almost done. I will show that tomorrow - PROMISE.

Today I would like to show you a little something that I made a few months back for Paper Wings. This was actually for Father's Day but I remember someplace on the web someone did it for Christmas and called them Santa's Pants. If you know where let me know so I can give credit where credit is due.

This is the front view. See the little ribbon slide? It looks like a buckle.

This is the back side. I should of poked the brads thru the ribbon, that would of looked a little better.

And here are the directions for them. If you have a question ~ don't hesitate to ask me.

OH! And another thing that I'd like to add. I received a comment from Carmen and I popped in to her blog and saw the coolest way to store your stickles. Please, if you will take a peek ~ No more shaking the bottles for me to get that stuff to come out! I'm doing this for sure!!

Hope to see you all tomorrow!!
Hugs,
Joani
