Okay, so there has been no “lion” around here recently. We’ve been running at full capacity since we got back from Spain. A few months ago I was talking to one of my girlfriends about doing a yard sale for expats. It’s so hard to unload some of the extra stuff we accumulate here because we cannot just throw a typical yard sale without risking a city wide riot! So, we decided to join forces and I am now helping coordinate a HUGE yard sale. Yikes! One good thing is that we’ve been able to go through closets and such and pull together a nice pile of cast offs that will most certainly be someone else’s treasure!
In spite of all the busyness I actually managed to sneak in a few minutes at the craft table yesterday and thought I would share with you all! I’ve got all kinds of new goodies and I’ve been dying to play with them! Now I just need everything to last me for another 8 months until we are back in the States. Yeah, right. Like I’m going to be able to hold out a whole eight months! We’ll see!
Anyways! I’m off to do some housework!

Funny…I just bought that stamp set from Cosmo Cricket yesterday. It was fun to see your card and I look forward to trying the set out.
your cards are so cute!
8 months … wow, that’ll be so odd for you & the family. I think I need to do more travelling, it might help us declutter a bit
I find the more we stay in one spot the more the closets start to buldge.
What a cute card with the lion!!! LOVE it!!! and that little bird is just the cutest!!! Your papers and colors and the way you put your cards together are always so much fun!!! And good luck with the sale! I need to do that too! But the thought of it is always so overwhleming that I just surf the internet instead! LOL!!!!
Thank you so much for playing along with us Tina!!! I always love seeing your beautiful cards!!!
