I Should Be Cleaning!




 by Ashley Cannon Newell. Ashley made a gorgeous card.

Hello friends! I am sneaking in here today with a tag. I should be cleaning for Thanksgiving. I went in to clean my craft room and got distracted, then decided to make a quick card for MIM and Merry Mondays. I am not even sure if I can enter a tag for MM. ( I kept it red, white and green just in case)


I stamped my own plaid, maybe my first time. 

Thank you so much for stopping by. If I don’t get back in the craft room before Thursday I want to wish all my American friends a very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving. 

Thank you for all you kind comments on my tag and bell cards.

  5. Crafting over cleaning should really not be a hard choice!! Great plaid. I'm afraid to do it on my own. I just know after lining up and carefully stamping almost the entire plaid - I'd blow it on the last stripe!

  14. I read some where that crafting comes before housework in the dictionary so I do believe you have them in the correct order. I love your sweet little tag and your plaid is so pretty and so perfectly lined up.

  23. I should be doing a lot of things too. I would rather be playing with paper and checking on my crafty friends...more fun!

    Your plaid background is amazing! Your tag is ever bit as perfect as can be!

    I hope you have a blessed and wonderful Thanksgiving!

  35. Who wants to be cleaning when you can make such a FAB tag! Love the plaid and the vellum with the Darling tree!

  36. Cute tag! I know what you mean...I confess many times I should have been cleaning and the craft room was calling my name and I couldn't resist. Right now I'm having a difficult time getting back into creating, and I need to get the sweeper and duster going. I was on doctor's restrictions for a few weeks and wasn't allowed to do that. Never thought I would miss dusting and running the sweeper, but I sure did.
