I’ve been working hard at keeping my daily planner filled, and things have gone smoothly and been productive, but today not so much! Cal came home from daycare sick yesterday afternoon, so his parents needed help taking care of him while he was out for the required 24 hours. He was very mellow so the morning was pretty quiet and laid back. Except I really couldn’t get much accomplished on my list. In fact, nothing was accomplished on my list including a post for Wednesday!
But that’s ok – family first. By the time he was up from his nap he was being a bouncy flouncy Tigger and feeling so much better which is all that matters.

The card above is the one I shared for my FB LIVE Monday afternoon, and I have already uploaded to youtube. If you missed the recording, click on the link below to catch how easy this card is, yet how showy. I had it on display at my Tuesday night Christmas card class and had multiple people mention how beautiful it was.

While you are watching the recording, please subscribe to my youtube channel. With all of the changes to FB those lives are disappearing after 30 days or so, and truly the youtube channel is the easiest way to find my projects. I will ALWAYS show the finished project as the photo you see when scrolling through the recordings – easy to access exactly what you are looking for!!!
No need to pause and write down measurements, because I’ve included the PDF for them below!!! Be sure to save both to your computer as well as printing a hard copy to file away as a back up. I try to keep both on hand just in case!

Final Thoughts….
So, since the day was basically a wash crafting, I’ve decided to finish it out by grabbing a book and curling up under my blanket. The schedule will begin again tomorrow with everything from today moving forward a day, and all is fine.
When your grandson tells you multiple times throughout the day “I love you Nana” and cuddles up in your lap, nothing else is really important, right?
Take care everyone, and I will be back on Friday with ANOTHER PDF from last week’s FB group live.
God Bless!
