I was feeling lucky yesterday. Hubby won some money on two different scratch off tickets and I won a raffle that I had entered back in December and completely forgot about. With all the good luck floating around here yesterday, I decided to get a head start on St. Patrick's Day cards. This is the first one I came up with. I listed it in my Etsy Shop last night, and hopefully it will find a home soon! Is anyone else crafting for St. Patty's Day? Whether it be a greeting card or any other craft, I'd love to see what everyone is coming up with for the holiday. Post your pics here!

National Hot Dog Month
Being from Chicago, you know I love a good hot dog, but they don't seem to be too popular with anyone but the kids these days. Have hot dogs gotten a bad rap?
For centuries together, hot dogs and sausages have suffered from their fair share of misperceptions about their content and manufacture. But today's traditional hot dogs and sausages are growing leaner. The fact is the U.S. Department of Agriculture requires by law that meats used in hot dogs and sausages must be muscle meat, just like the fresh ground meat sold in supermarkets. The vast majority of hot dogs and sausages consist of the same high quality meats that shoppers buy straight out of their grocer's meat case.
So, with July being National Hot Dog Month, I headed over to Etsy.com to see what hot dog-inspired goodies I could find.

Grandparents' Day This Sunday
This Sunday is Grandparents' Day! Do you have cards to send? The Scrappin' Fools group over at CafeMom hosted a challenge this morning. The theme was Grandparents' Day (umm...stating the obvious here) and this is what I came up with. The tag says "love you to pieces". I used the sketches at PageMaps.com for inspiration. I made three of them to send to my parents, his parents, and great grandma as well.
So....who still needs a Grandparents' Day card? I can crank one of these babies out for you and have it in the mail by tomorrow!

Gift Boxes!
I have been thinking about adding a new product to my store. I love my greeting cards, but people need more than that when they're gift-giving. Gift boxes! People need beautiful gift boxes, it dawned on me. So, I tried folding one gift box out of paper, to see if it even resembled a box. (grin) And whaddaya know.... a new product is born. Introducing, the hand-folded paper gift box. I have so much fun making these and the list is endless when it comes to paper and color combinations. Not to mention, all the pretty ribbon to top it off! Stop by my Etsy shop and take a look. If you purchase an item, put 'Blog' in the notes to seller and I'll give you free shipping. Wait for me to send you a revised invoice!
