Jen shared some "Riley" images that she got through the Wish RAK on SCS with me, thanks Jen. I thought he was just toooo cute and would be fun to use for Ryan's 8th birthday card. I just bought the Making Tracks wheel to use with the Born to Ride motorcycle set I bought off ebay a while ago and it was perfect for this card. The sentiment came out of my head, amazingly enough, printed on the computer, the coloring was with watercolor pencils and a blender pen. I actually used my Big bite crop-a-dile to set the eyelets. I bought that thing on the home shopping network months and months ago and hadn't even opened it.
Now there's a lengthy explanation and description for you ----------- I STAMPED ---
As for the remodel, well this past weekend we finished up the trim on the bedroom wall, plus we did the baseboard on the wall on the right in the photo so that only leaves two more walls in the bedroom. We also installed all the trim and baseboard in the bathroom. The plumber came today and hooked up the faucets, shower and toilet. It looks like a real bathroom, though it's still not functional. Bill has to install the listello for the vanity backsplash (you can see a couple of pieces of it sitting on the vanity along the wall) and he needs to seal the grout. Then we still need to get the shower door which I am getting a few more estimates for, though we're not opposed to using a shower curtain once the shower is ready until we get the new shower door. I need to get the towel bars and towels plus we need to hang up the mirrors. Oh yeah, the electrician needs to finish the last couple of items on Friday too.
Take a look, you can see the bedroom wall in the picture and then scroll down a bit and you can see it in a previous picture. What a difference a little baseboard and door trim makes..................
and here is our beautiful new bathroom, the double sink vanity and the corner of the throne. You can also see the shower with the fixtures......
Thanks for checking in.
Love to all, Kim :)
