Our beloved dog, Kramer, of 11 years passed away this past Wednesday due to complications from cancer. We've cherished every moment with him these past 6 months. He is at peace now. But we miss him terribly.

Couple of things to show you...
I finally put up one of my decor elements! Here is the monogram in my foyer when you walk in the front door. I think it looks great there! I'll be putting up some more soon.
And here is a card I made using a photograph I took at the Morton Arboretum this past spring...
Using photographs is a super easy way to make note and greeting cards. I printed this on my home computer using Epson Matte Presentation paper. It's a little thicker than copy paper, but not as thick as cardstock. Use a tape runner to adhere it. Glue might leave it clumpy and looking warped.
