It’s time for a sneak peek at this week’s Pals Paper Arts inspiration card. I hope you will join me for the reveal Thursday. My husband liked the color combination, and I will be anxious to hear what you think about it, too!
Would You Like this Card?
Just leave me a comment on today’s peek and Thursday’s reveal, and I will randomly select a person to receive this card from everyone who has left comments.
Pearl Winner
A huge thank-you goes out to everyone who left comments on my Paper Players card peek and reveal. I do read each and every one. I wish that I could send pearls to everyone…wouldn’t that be fabulous? However, there can only be one winner…and this week the winner is: Kathy in AZ!
Kathy in AZ said:
This is an absolutely beautiful fall card. It should be framed and hung up. You certainly are the master of design. I knew there had to be pearls somewhere as they are your trademark. Enjoy the rest of the weekend!
Kathy, just send me your address, and I will drop your pearls in the mail right away!
Congrats to UKC Grand Champion Do You Know the Muffin Man!
Muffy Lin, won Best of Breed Friday, and also won the Champion class on Sunday. She earned her United Kennel Club Grand Champion title. Brody was the Reserve Champion on Sunday. I will have show pictures as soon as they become available.
And there is more fun news! Both Twins auditioned for the Bruton Stroube advertising agency Saturday. The photographer did a variety of test shots. This agency does work for Purina, among other clients. Who knows…maybe their faces will show up on a bag of dog food one of these days. If not…it was still a load of fun seeing them have their test shots taken.
Oh my gosh…it seems like ages since I last posted! In addition to my busy weekend, I have been dealing with a myriad of health issues including headaches and blurred vision, which finally precipitated a trip to visit my doctor! And to add insult to injury, I strained a chest muscle when Brody headed out after a squirrel. Arghhh! Armed with meds for my head, and ice packs for my muscle, I should be on the mend. I go back for a follow-up check-up in two weeks. So if you have left emails for me…please be patient! I will be catching up! In the meantime, my chest and arm are starting to ache, so it is off to bed for me! Until next time…
Oh my gosh! I am so sorry you are out of sorts my friend! That’s not good. I sure hope you mend quickly and get some much needed rest this weekend.
As for the twins I am so proud and I’m just a reader. I could only imagine how you all must feel! How cool the photo opp must have been too. If there is a Project Runway for Dogs I know they would win!!!! Congrats I know what a big deal that award is. They are indeed Champions just like their human mother is.
Ann, I am sending you good thoughts and hope you get to feeling better soon. Take good care of yourself!! Big hugs, friend! 🙂
Can’t wait to see the book reveal! The color combination is so pretty.
Hope you are on the mend. Congrats to your twins–I bet the photos will turn out so cute. From your preview, I just know your card will be fabulous! Dar
I like the colors too!
Congrats to the Twins! They definitely are champions. From their poses in pictures you have posted, they are ‘model’ ready too.
I hope you feel better soon.
Love the colors so this looks like another special fall inspired card. Works for me!!!!!
Ah, the twins – what great news. Muffy, maybe when your mom is feeling better she can help you post about your great win! Of course Brody needs to tell his news too so we need to be patient until she can keep you two separated so you don’t fight over the computer! Wow, a photo op too! Boy, my little Henry is jealous! Just don’t let your mom get into the “stage mom” mindset!

Woohoopdeedoo! Go Muffy and sigh how cute is Brody and I think he is a major champion in my eyes – can you hear me barking my head off at nothing in particular!
Barkie softly and tenderly – I’m so sorry to hear about your health issues – you and Shari should live near each other so you can help each other out! Wouldn’t hurt if Muffy and Brody lived near me! Hey – Brody and I could get married!
Hope you are feeling better VERY soon.
Sorry to hear you’re not feeling well. Sending prayers your way, sweety!
What exciting news about the twins! But I am sorry to hear about your headaches. I can sympathize, esp. at this time of the year; they seem to be a part of my life! Hopefully you’re on the mend!
HUGS!!!!
Preview looks interesting but I enjoy the whole view more. Congrats to the twins; a very successful weekend. I would have loved to have been there for their photo shoot. If it was up to me, their cuteness would be everywhere!!! I hope you are feeling better Ann and well on the road to getting well.
Love the colors on your sneak peak! Can’t wait till Thursday!!!
Oh Ann – I’m so sorry to hear about your headaches and blurred vision. Headaches are such a bummer and can make the whole body ache – ugh!
Wonderful news about the twins wins and the photo op – how exciting. Please keep us posted if they are on a Purina bag 🙂
Love the sneak peak – can’t wait to see the whole thing. I would love to have one of your creations. I think I would frame it.
Take care

Would I like this card? Of course, because I already know it is fabulous!
You take care of yourself and get well!
This has all the makings of another masterpiece! I do not have the stamp set I see previewed, but I think that is going to have to change. Thanks for your amazing insiration day after day! How do you do it? Congrats to the twins – they are champions in my book too!
Oh ouch…you must be in alot of pain! Sorry to hear that you have not been well. Get better soon!
Yeah Muffy! Way to go girl! The furbabies will have some treats in celebration for you. Also for Brody who is finally maturing to take more ribbons in a show.
I hope they get picked to be the dog on the food bag! They have our vote!!!
I really like what I see so far on this card. I have to agree with hubby…nice color combination.
Take it easy and rest up so you are back to feeling great!
First if all, I hope you feel better soon! It’s no fun not feeling great.
Congrats to the twins. First the wins and then the photo shot. How great is that!
I know I will love you new card. I am really into leaves this fall. Adding color to the edges gives it such depth.
Get some rest and take care of yourself.
I Thought something must be going on for you not to have posted for a few days! I’m so sorry to hear you’ve not been feeling well and then pulled the muscle on top of that! I hope the doctor is able to determine what’s causing the headaches and blurred vision and hope you are on the mend very soon!
Can’t wait to see the reveal tomorrow, it looks like another fabulous fall card using that gorgeous Spice Cake DP! My order with that luscious paper will be here Monday, I can’t wait to dig into it!
And congrats to the twins on their wins, that is so fabulous! I know you are one proud mama today! That would be awesome to see either of them on bags of dog food or other items! Who knows, maybe they will star in some Purina commercials too! You will be a movie star mom!
Feel better soon!
Already know I will love it. It uses one of my favorite stamp sets!
Feel better soon, Ann!
So sorry to hear about your injuries and health issues. Hope you find out what is going on, and are on the mend soon!
Love the preview of this card. I love turquoise/aqua in fall cards, and this one looks scrumtious! Rest, rest, rest!!!
I like all of your cards so much. So I anxiously await the Pearl one. I am sure it will be beautiful.
