New Blog Slightly Different Name

Forgot to link my new blog address last year!!!!
New blog, slightly different name.

ThreeThirteenBlog

Moving On

Hi Everyone! I'm moving to a new blog. It looks the same and works the same, except that now the address matches the name. ThreeThirteen, (no space), is the name and the address is now threethirteenblog.blogspot.com. There is still much "tweeking" to be done, the fun, but at times frustrating part. Thanks for sticking with me, I've added new buttons and new ways to follow me, now that Google has changed several services. Don't forget, change is good, it keeps us alert and young! Keep your beak to the sun, but when it rains tilt it down. **grin**

Hugs~

New ATC's

Here are the ATC's I made for a swap at ATCS For All. The swap is called May Day/Beltane.

A link to information about May Day. The first day of the Month of May is known as May Day. It is the time of year when warmer weather begins and flowers and trees start to blossom. It is said to be a time of love and romance. It is when people celebrate the coming of summer with lots of different customs that are expressions of joy and hope after a long winter.

These represent the May Pole Dancing tradition:

These show fertility, new life, and beginning of the growing season:

Remember Me?

Yes, I'm still alive. Here is a card we made at stamp camp. Love the die-cut dress and dress-stand by Stampin' Up!. We should be making more of these, there is also a matching stamp set for variety. I have more cards and ATC's to share but haven't had good results with my photography. I have a DYI light box in the works, (well, it's pinned and in my mind anyway). Here she is.....

Hope I still have a few visitors, thanks for stopping by! Especially you, Linda **grin**

Postcard Art

It's been forever since I've posted anything, good thing this blog is just for fun. I made this 4"x6" postcard, "just because". I've been wanting to join in at the Sunday Postcard Art challenge but this doesn't fit the theme.  A little collage crafting was enjoyable, hope you like it too!

Thanks for visiting, I love to hear what you think!

Winter Hats

I haven't been crafting or redecorating lately, but thought I would post a picture. This is my daughter, in black, and her bff, in ivory.  The two hats are from a collection of vintage my friend has on display. Who knew they were a perfect match? They were used for photo op only, but don't they look sweet?

This is an outrage! I am ready to do anything I can to remove this woman from the bench.
