Tea Box Dispensers!

Hi ya peeps!
It's the ending of March and  the beginning of April - yikes!
Hope your weekend was awesome, it was a busy  one for us.  It was yard maintenance on Saturday and making smoke meat all day on Sunday!   And of course I got to do some small crafting too, LOL!  
I have a bunch of these Tea Box Dispensers that I'm prepping up for someone and I hope I can get some good sales on them.   So here is one of those first completed ones and I will try to get the rest up as I get them done.  I also have my fave tea just for posting purpose but you can add any tea you like.

Here is my Sunday and fun day!
1st phase - prepping the day before
Char sui and regular spices

 2nd phase smoke for 2 1/2 hours
and my Taco watching all the excitement

 3rd phase - cooling off yep on my kitchen dinning table!
of course we need to try out a strip of each flavor first!  Yum yum!

 end result - this is what I made for dinner.
A healthy salad with some char sui pork smoke meat! 

After all that it was early too bed ~
Well I'm doing something else today and will get this posted up later...
Enjoy your crafty moments....

Happy weekend peeps~

Here are some baby cards I needed to do for the recipient also.   The image is from Kitty Bee Designs if you don't see it in their etsy shop if could already been a retired digital image.  The recipient requested one in each of those colors just so  she could have them on hand when she needed it.  LOL!  I love the challenge in  balloon shadowing it really gives the image another pop to it.   I hope she likes them!

It's time for me to take a break and do some house chores before hubby gets home from work.   See ya back here soon~
Enjoy your crafty weekend!

Thanks for stopping over and I'll see you on my next spotlight in April.

Happy crafting!

Thank you card for the boarding staff!

Hello everyone~
I'm still trying to re-adjust from being on vacation all week.   We got in late last night yes, from Viva Las Vegas!  It sure was a fun trip, although we did not go sight seeing my hubby just wanted to hang out at the Casinos and just oversee all the fun action that was going on.  Weather was gorgeous and food was amazing..   While on vacation my Taco spent his first week away from us and we had him in a boarding shelter.   Being that he is my tail I think he got a bit home sick and thought we abandon him.   Although he met a lot of new doggie friends everyone had their own little open room  and a little grassy yard to do their thing.   I spent everyday calling to check how he was doing, LOL!  I made him a thank you card and mailed it out to them today.  The staff over at the boarding site was fantastic and they gave him a manicure and bath before we went to pick him up.   He was the most happiest doggy he just cried and whined and didn't want to let go of me..... 

Here are a few pics of downtown Las Vegas, oh yeh we went to the Premium Outlet on Wednesday, boy did I go crazy shopping their.... Both me a new bag and wallet from Coach, lots of clothing, and odd and ends.....

 I'm so behind in getting caught up with everyone's emails and comments, please excuse me but it will take me some time to catch up with you all.   I will try to go forward right now and take it from there.   I've got so many things to do right now so I will end it right here and try to be back later.....

Bunny in Autumn!

Hello peeps~
My posting for this week will be pre-posted as hubby and I will be off on  vacay until Sunday morning March 15th!... We both agreed while we were on vacation that we would not bring any job related work while we are on our trip.  So that means no computer or Facebook communication.  Ugghhh, but after procrastinating about it, I said it would be best and think positive that we all need to break  and venture from our daily routine work.  So here is a digital image from Little Miss Muffett (Bunny in Autumn), actually this image could be used for just about any occasion.   It's another CAS card but she is one happy hopping rabbit.

   
Be back with another card soon!
Please pardon me if I not around in blogland for the week, will try and catch up with you all when I return.    Take care - enjoy your crafty moments~
