Happy New Year!

Happy New Year, all!

A couple things about this time of year to share ...

1) you may not know this, but I'm a list junkie from WAY back! So, I'm lovin' this time of year, and checking out all sorts of "year in review" posts on blogs and on TV. And ...

2) I love a parade! Always have been and always will! We're watching the 125th Tournament of Roses parade as I post today, and the Harlem Globetrotters just passed by. They weren't on a float but walking, and doing basketball tricks as they passed by. I went with my family to see them when I was a kid (well, maybe not THIS version of the Globetrotters ... ) and loved 'em! And ...

3) I made today's card this morning from some Jolee's paper tape I purchased this past fall on an crafty outing w my stamping buddies Pat and Kim, and the EK Success stickers that I received free with a recent online order. I was pretty surprised they matched so well! The star that the new year is posted on is popped up, and it's a present from my buddy Kim this past Christmas! I'm just now breaking it in (thanx, Kim!). And ...

4) One of my New Year Resolutions is to return to posting ... something I've been remiss about recently. Dunno why ... I CERTAINLY keep purchasing new product so should try to at least post on a weekly basis! So, if you have a blog, how often do YOU post? And ...

5) I added a "follow me on Feedly" button on the right hand side of my blog this morning. Isn't modern technology wonderful?! And ... that's it! Here's the card's deets:

stamps: n/a; paper: Neenah's Solar White , SU's Tempting Turquoise; ink: n/a; tools: Cuttlebug; accessories: Jolee's Cool Blues paper tape set, QuicKutz's No. 73 number set and Spellbinders Stars Five dies

You are welcome. I ended up purchasing them this last week along with the hexagon dies I have been wanting.

I tried to use your follow me button - gave me an error. Wonder if is because it is on my iPad? Hmmm. Will try tomorrow on my PC. Happy New Year friend.
