Foxy Thanks

In January, Jamie and I moved into our first place; no more renting! It's a condo apartment in south Mississauga with a 30 minute walk to Lake Ontario. We are super happy to have our own place and we're enjoying the quietness it comes with. We've done a lot of renovations to fix the place up to make it our own and there are a few more projects to go.

It's been a busy year and I often wonder where the time went... the move, renovations, helping with my Sister's Baby Shower (I'll be posting some of the goodies I made for it in a later post - and yes, it uses the Fox & Friends Stamp set), my Niece's arrival, Family time, Trip to the Thousand Islands, Lots of Movies, Camping with Friends in Tobermory, my friend's crazzy Bachelorette party in Montreal, Weddings and coming up, our trip to Las Vegas!

Now back to this post : )

A package arrived one day so I immediately opened it. Inside was a lovely purple gift wrapped box, I had no idea what it was and who it was from. When Jamie came home we opened it together and VoilĂ ! A fantastic tangerine stand up mixer! I was so excited ~ a housewarming gift from my Sister and Brother-in-Law. I enjoy baking and it was a very generous gift, just perfect. Since then, I've made lots of muffins and banana bread with it, it's really easy to use and mixes up all the ingredients in seconds.


Soooo, I decided to make them a thank you card with the lovely purple gift wrap it came in.

THIS IS IT!!

Hi and WELCOME to my website! 

I'm excited to have a place where I could share with you my card creations... and anything else I might make.  In March my Brother gave us a powerful microwave!  This was his way of thanking us for helping him move and as a housewarming gift, it's a few notches up from the one we had.  In return, I made this Thank you card for him.  I love the cute monkey in the Fox & Friends stamp set from Stampin' Up.
