Joe Cool at the Water Fountain

Welcome to Joe Cool at the Water Fountain. Can't you just picture him lowering his glasses and checking out who is walking by?? Snoopy has many characters but today, we are showing our talents using Joe Cool whether he be at the water fountain, on campus, or just hangin'!

If you got past Woodstock and have arrived from Jearise ~ http://lorbysworld.blogspot.com then you have arrived at the right spot!!! Kudos!

For my project, I have made a Joe Cool Card featuring his likeness raised, and as only he would have it a colorful background.  I added the two red buttons to set it off and accent a cool dude.

Sorry, but I'm late for my next class and must send you on your way - just watch out for the hall monitor on your way out.  I will be the last stop on our hop today.

There is a wonderful group of talented ladies participating today just in case you get lost along the way:

Family Blog Hop November 14

Family is a special word that means more then those that are actually related to us. It is a word that means those that are close to us. Those that are there for us when we cry or laugh and just want to talk. Families are special and this is a special time to be thankful for our family be it big or small, near or far. Please join our crafters as they celebrate families through their creativeness and love. Our hostess is Jearise from http://lorbysworld.blogspot.com and she will be having a special give away on her blog so make sure you start with her blog to see the prize and how to enter the drawing. Here is my idea of FAMILY...

This card represents my Mother, friends, and me busily making presents.  Always sewing at the "last minute" on Christmas Eve.  The Digi is Rick St. Dennis (Love His images) and the paper is from Jolly by Golly by Cosmo Cricut.  Thank you for stopping by today.  I will be the final stop on the hop.
