Cute Little Ducks

A few posts ago, I used this die with a pair of boots.  I thought the little duckies would like to play in the rain also.  I added a few reeds from another die set, sponged a little color on them, and added the greeting.  Very quick and easy to make.  I love using dies on my cards.

St Patrick's Day

So many people have corned beef and cabbage on St Patrick's Day.  My family had ham instead of corned beef.  My husband's family had it and they all now call it the curse.  I guess they didn't like it.  We do not have corned beef and cabbage because I don't eat the beef and he doesn't eat cabbage.  Since he cooks, it is not happening.  We are having soup made with butternut squash, an apple, and carrots.  When we were in Ireland, we ate a lot of soup.  Every place had soup and it was good.  The truth is I don't think we ever saw corned beef with cabbage anywhere we ate in Ireland.

Happy Birthday Boots

March 4 is coming soon.  It would have been Jim's father's 99th birthday.  It is hard to believe he has been gone 30 years. The sentiment on this card is his sense of humor.  It is also appropriate for marching in boots on March 4th (forth).
