I hope you had a wonderful Easter. My son and his girlfriend came for a bike ride. There is a beautiful trail right behind my condo that runs along the Wisconsin River. The trail is built on an old railroad. From my condo to the end is a 10 mile ride on blacktop. The plan is to go right into The South side of Devils Lake. We rode the 10 miles there and back. I have an e-bike and would never be able to do that ride with out my bike. I love that I am able to do a ride like that at my age and not feel like I am going to die. It was really enjoyable and a beautiful 80 degree day.<br />

My son was here today and helped me create a new Header for my blog. I used some ephemera from my new favorite site <a href="https://members.thegraphicsfairy.com/">The Graphic Fairy</a>. I am having so much looking and using all the beautiful images. Plus if you join at the Premium Membership you get lessons on how to use Photo Shop Elements, which I really need. Both of my sons use Photo Shop at work. They can just whip through things and loose me in the process.<br />
<br />
I have been working on a journal to hold ideas for making journals.<br />
Here is one of the videos.<br />

Well it has been over three years since I have posted. It has been a long journey and I have come along way. I have moved into a condo on the river and enjoy watching the eagles as they search for food on these cold days. Sophie seems to like it here. She now has a brother Rudy. Sophie would have like to be an only cat but Rudy needed a good home and he stole my heart with his loud purr and crooked tail.<br />
<br />
I wanted to post because I want to enter a challenge over at <a href="https://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/wednesdaychallenge/">Simon Says Stamps</a>. The challenge was for an Interactive Card. That got me motivated to make a Slider Valentine's Day card. I make some years ago and had to search around for how I made it. My directions were not the best so I am giving it another try. The original card idea came from Dawn at Dawn's Stamping Thoughts Oct 31, 2013.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the card I made.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
. I decorated with a Lawn Faun die I got from Simon Says Stamps.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here are the measurements</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Base and top card 4.24 X 5.5</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Slider 3.25 X 4.75</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cut top card </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Line left side up at 3.5 cut from 3/4 down to 4 3/4</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Flip and do the same to the other side</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then cut at the 4 3/4 line across to create a flap</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Score the flap from edge of card 1 1/4", 3", 4 3/4"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fold up, down, up</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Punch notch at top of base and top card at top (not slider)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Glue or sew the slider to the flap lining up the bottom and have a little hanging over sides.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Then attach front to back along side and bottom.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now decorate any way you want.</div>

But I need to tell you that I will be off the web for a while. My dear sweet husband, the love of my life passed away last night unexpectedly. Words will not express how I feel. Tears are all that help. Please keep our family in your prayers and blessings as we work our way through our sorrow.<br />

Jodie at <a href="http://www.bugaboostamps.com/">Bugaboo stamps</a> contacted me and let me know that I won her random drawing giveaway. It was $25 dollars to spend on digi stamps.

That was interesting and an experience we want to try. The grandkids are AMAZING! Really! They are 16 months and 5 years old. Great ages to enjoy a visit from their grandparents.<br />
I have been organizing and trying to craft. Organizing is a never ending job for me.<br />
<br />
Anyway I am here to tell you about a challenge/giveaway sponsored by a You Tube friend. Her name is Myra and her channel is "craftyrats." The challenge is to make a Pocket Letter. I <u><i>love</i></u> to make Pocket Letters. Go <a href="https://youtu.be/AFY4VTX7pm8">Here</a> to see her video.<br />
This is the Pocket Letter I made for her.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Even if you don't want to join please go over and give her some love. She had two of her beloved Kitties pass away in the past two weeks. They were with her so long and I thing that makes it harder. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Mayr has been making some really cool Christmas Crafts. She is very talented and I know you will get some great ideas. </div>

I host one swap and one challenge.<br />
The swap is a ticket kit swap but this month my ticket looks more like a shaker ATC.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I have so much fun making shakers with my Fuse tool. The theme is Christmas, the size needs to be around 2.5 X 3.5 and they must be a kit. The picture is what my kit will look like when it is completed. The image is a Dearie Doll I got years ago and I cut it with my Silhouette. That was so much fun.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the video of how I made my ticket and what I will put in the kit.</div>

I also host a Christmas card challenge each month. This has been great I now have 55 homemade cards to send out. I think about 9 out of the 37 who signed up have the same amount. It really is a great was to do a little each month. We made 5 cards a month and I suggest a theme. This month it was use what you have. That really is the theme most months. LOL</div>

I used a $1.00 digi paper kit from Snap Click Supply Co. and my Photoshop Elements. What do you think?<br />
<br />
Yesterday I learned how to use my Silhouette to cut digi images that I have had for a long time. I just love Felicia from <a href="https://youtu.be/Zj15tsPj_Ow">MousePotatoDesigns</a> on You Tube. She is a computer wiz and knows how to break it down so I can follow. Felicia is also the Fauxbonichi Journalers Facebook Group Leader. She is having a give away and it would be perfect for someone just getting started in journaling. It is her one year FauxBonichi <a href="https://youtu.be/EJLp8X5Y6TA">Anniversary</a>. If you ever thought you might like to journal that is the group to check out. Great help, wonderful inspiration and friendly people.<br />

In late April my granddaughter and her parents moved in with us. They planned to stay 6 months and they did. I am so sad not to have my baby girl and her mom around . They were such great company when we were here. We spent a lot of time at the cottage this summer.<br />

Moving out day.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This was a sad day for me, but it is important for a young family to have there own place. We wanted to give them the chance to save some money and have a garden. Their garden was amazing. I never got the vegetables they did for that plot of land.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now what have I been doing? Well working in a journal. Having fun in a Face Book group called Fauxbonichi Journaling group. I journal everyday. I don't take pictures of that but I share in a video once in a while. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
There are about 70 videos on my You Tube channel since May. The latest is a Autumn Fun Book I made for a swap at Your Paper Pantry. </div>

My craft room is finished but I haven't spent enough time there with running to the cottage most of the summer. If you would like to check it out here are Part1 and Part2 </div>

Today we are at the cottage it is cold (50) and raining. Yesterday it got to 81. That was so amazing. The colors were breath taking. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I played around with a new header for my blog but I am not sure I have it just right. Most of the time I make my own but I just couldn't remember how so I used a <a href="http://shabbyblogs.com/about/">Shabbyblogs </a>one and added Sophie's picture. She has some beautiful headers for free.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

That is it for now. I hope you are all safe and enjoying the Autumn air and some very happy crafty times.</div>

Yesterday was move in day. My step son, his wife and baby Ava came to live with us for 6 months. I have been very busy getting the basement ready for them. The basement is a walk out, finished off and very nice basement, but my crafts had taken over most of it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Here is a video that will show you what I have been up to. </div>

This is all most my craft room. Three to four week from now shelves and cabinets will arrive. Then more sorting and arranging. I am really enjoying how it is right now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Thanks for stopping and I hope you are having a wonderful weekend.</div>

Sorry!! But I am here today because it is time to join another challenge at Raisin Boat. It is Challenge #33 and the theme is Moms and Dads. Now I know you want to make a card for you Mom for Mother's Day and your Dad for Father's Day. Both of my parents are gone so I made Mother's Day cards for my daughter in laws. See there are many ways to join the challenge. You could win a free set from Raisin Boat. You could make a scrapbook page, an art journal page, or both, because you can enter as often as you like.</span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">The challenge to you this month is "It’s a Guy Thing". This could be a card, banner, journal page, scrapbook page, anything you may may need that has a guy theme! Use any set you have (you don't have to limit your entry to Raisin Boat stamps), but if you use a <a href="http://www.raisinboat.com/"><span style="color: #021eaa; letter-spacing: 0px;">Raisin Boat stamp set</span></a>, it will count as two entries. That gives you <i>twice </i>the chance to win a FREE stamp set of your choice! You can enter as often as you like.</span></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 13px; min-height: 15px; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;"></span><br /></div>
<div style="color: #232323; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 13px; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">Remember, you can either </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px; text-decoration: underline;"><i>buy</i> </span><span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">OR <i>rent</i> <a href="http://www.raisinboat.com/stamp_products.asp"><span style="color: #021eaa; letter-spacing: 0px;">Raisin Boat sets</span></a> -- no guilt in using a set for just one project, such as this challenge. Raisin Boat have an amazing collection of stamps and many that can be used for a “<a href="http://www.raisinboat.com/view_Category.asp?category=30">Masculine</a> Theme.” This is a great challenge that will help you stock up on guy card for when my need them. The possibilities are endless!</span><br />

<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">This post is a video of all the Rolodex Cards I have made during 2014. " Me, myself, and I," all on my own. A lot of people do ICADS. I really took it to heart to do a card each day or share a card each day for a year, hoping for lessons learned. I did learn a lot, and it was a blast to do art or share art every day, 365! But, it was hard and stressful at times when I wasn't going to be at home. One thing I learned was that if I had to work ahead and do more than one card on a day, each card got better. Another thing I learned was if I had been inspiration by someone, or something, the card was better. </span></div>
<div style="color: #323333; font-family: Arial; text-align: center;">
<span style="letter-spacing: 0px;">I did surprise myself in accomplishing this goal. What is for next year you ask? I am not sure. I kinda let the Spirit lead me. We will see when It happens.</span></div>

I really am very proud of myself. I set a goal and went after it. I did learn a lot and feel I have grown in my art. I do plan to continue doing art every day. I may not share it every day but I will share. I have a video that is a slide show of all the cards coming soon. Your feed back is what really helps me to grow. Thank you so much.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
May you have a wonderful and safe New Years!</div>

<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif; line-height: 17px; text-align: start;">Day two of our trip. We are headed to Colorado today. It snowed most of the way to Lincoln NE. It was a light snow but it did start getting slippery just as we got to Lincoln. Good thing that was our first stop. It is very cold. 23 </span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: arial, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 17px;">degrees was the high today.
