Hello my fellow crafty friends!  I know it has been FOREVER since my last post.  I have had some personal issues that have kept me from blogging.  But Jazz and I are back and we hope to be blogging more regularly now.

So if you are reading this, it is because you have stuck with me. MWAH!  Thank you so much.  It really does mean a lot that you are here!

We have been making cards, zentangling and doing some art journaling.  I will try and get some post  up of the various artsy things we have been playing with.

I have set up a few posts for this week as I am going out of town to see my friend at Simply Betty Stamps.  It is a little retreat and a couple of girls are coming all the way from Australia to be with us so I am especially excited.

Jazz Jazzy sends his love

Talk to you all soon!!!!

Hello Happy September!  I cannot believe that it is fall.  Where did the summer go?  I wish to thank you for your patience this summer.  It was a busy one for sure.  I hope to get back to blogging more frequently.

I’ll start today with a card for the Simply B stamps challenge.  Betty is so generous and gives us a free stamp to use each month.  I absolutely love this months.  Here name is Mercedes.  Isn’t she just Witchin’?

Hey Guys.  Jazzy here.  Mama and I have been working hard to get this card folded and decorated and ready for the Paper Shelter Challenge.  I picked the image out because this is how I feel about being woken up from a perfectly good nap to help.

This is the image A little bit grumpy.

a little bit grumpy fullI Tried to hold the card down so Mama could take a picture with the card closed but my fur kept getting in the way so we had to use clips.

A little bit grumpyThanks for looking, it really makes my Mama happy.  And when she is happy, I get treats and scratches.  So come back soon.

Happy FRIDAY!  Whoop Whoop!  Not a lot new here at Jazzydoodledesign.  How about you?

Today’s image is from the very talented Miss Betty at Simplybstamps.net.  The theme of the challenge is Steampunk using this image. This is my first real crack at Steampunk.  I do like the vintage feel though.

Hey my fellow crafty pals,  I’m back.  Some of you are probably thinking..hmm, I didn’t realize you’d been gone. LOL

Wow what a great  couple of weeks.  Nathan made it back to the states safely and it has been non-stop since. I went to the lake with my long-lost uncle and his family, met my future daughter in law Beryl, (aren’t they a lovely couple) had an engagement party, built a fence (I did help a little), celebrated my husband’s grandfather’s 95th birthday, ate too much, drank too much, stayed up too late and in general had a blast.  I even managed to do a few crafty things.  My camera was refusing to focus so I had to buy a new one so you should be seeing some new posts this week.

Ok so now on to the coasters I made.  I wanted a project for Beryl and I that we could do together, but that was easy too.  It didn’t work out the way I’d like for us to craft together but she made some lovely coasters and since the camera was broken, I didn’t get any pictures of hers. 🙁  Here are the ones I made:

I bought the Travertine tiles at the home improvement store.  They run about .49 cents each.  I used staz-on ink to stamp the images.  I did not seal these with anything.  The thing I like about travertine tiles is that they absorb some of the moisture from your drink.  These were fun.  I think I will make some more.  I also bought some cheaper tiles that I am going to modge-podge some scrapbook paper to the top and seal with Modge-podge.  Guess I better get busy.

Good to be back.

Wendy

p.s. Jazzy says hello and that he is happy to be back – now he can catch up on some much needed sleep.

Well Hello there!!!  Sorry for the short absence. I had planned to have some posts this week and just didn’t get a chance. I hope to do some crafting this weekend! yea!  Our vacation was awesome.  We went to the Flaming Gorge and spent the week on a boat.  No phones, no internet just good weather, good people and good relaxation.  We weren’t able to compete in the fishing tournament like we have in years past so that was kind of a bummer but we did catch some big fish. (you can click on any of these to make them larger)

Jazzy did his usual

 

 

 

Just what I needed. Check out these viewsBut alas it all came to an end and we had to go home.  On the way we learned that there was/is a very large fire in the Ft Collins area.  Just to the north of us.  Over 68,000 acres have burned.  189 homes have been lost and 1 woman has been killed.  This area is where we spend a great deal of time.  We hunt, fish and camp there about 2/3rds of the year.  My heart goes out to those who live there year round. This is a picture of the fire taken from Laramie, WY about 70 miles away.

Please keep them in your prayers.

Thank you to all that commented on my posts while I was away.  You keep me motivated and excited about my craft.  Jazzy sends a big woof and tail wag to you all.

Thanks for putting up with the boring vacation photos LOL.  Next time a card- I promise.
