The Chicken Coop

I am a paper crafter. I've been playing with paper, and cutting and pasting for many years now and I still just love it. I teach classes each month and would love to have you.
You can find me at MyRedHen.blogspot.com and on Pinterest
or email me at MyRedHen4@yahoo.com
I'd love to hear from you.
Every now and then I have some cards or little treats available for sale that may be seen here.
My blog also contains my personal posts. Ignore them if you like, but you may get a kick out of them. Maybe my girls will read them one day and get insights into the inner workings of an old woman's brain....Scary Thought!
There is a list of labels on the right side of the blog, so you can click there to go to only the posts that you are interested in. That will allow you to skip the personal posts and any items for sale if you wish. No matter which way you choose, I hope will enjoy my little blog and visit often.

Project 365 Day 253


Okay today I took a quiz online which is supposed to tell me which co-host on The View I am most like. I had to choose the answer that most closely fit on some questions because my true answer wasn't there, but still---I came out as most like Joy Behar, with the following description of me:

What co-host are you most like?:

Joy Behar

Personality Description:

Your sense of humor is second to none. You have never met someone who you were afraid to ask a tough question to. You're always poking fun at your pals -- good-naturedly, of course. And if they don't like it? So what? Who cares?


Is it just me, or is this not like me at all? I am really NOT one to ask the tough questions, but more likely to be left with my mouth hanging open when someone else does. AND---I am cut to the quick if I offend anyone or hurt their feelings, even inadvertently. The words "So what?" and "Who cares?" don't come from my mouth often. Especially in reference to other people's feelings!
I hope I have a decent sense of humor and I guess I DO poke fun at my friends sometimes, but the rest?

Oh well---Maybe I'm like none of them at all. I'm just one of a kind---Thank Goodness!!

(I do love her haircut though--It's one that I think might look nice on me if I could only do it!)

Happy New Year to December's Winner

The winner for the month of December is Vicki Wolfe. Yeah Vicki!! This is her second time winning. Leaving those comments gives you a chance to take those prizes away from her, so let's hear from you!

Project 365 Day 252



I had Matilda again for the day. Every time she's over for the night, she tells me she wants me to put her hair in "piggies." Sometimes it's one piggy, sometimes two piggies. Today I asked her if she wanted three piggies. She thought I was hysterical. It actually wasn't a great idea on my part, because she just may have taken me up on it!
Anyway---Today was a "Two Piggy Day."

Today's picture is of a page layout from a class that I will be teaching soon on birthday layouts. Watch for it to be announced soon.

Project 365 Day 250 HAPPY NEW YEAR!!


Happy New Year Everyone! I spent the day scrapbooking with friends, as I have every year for ages. I got off to a very slow start---wasn't in the mood at all, but I got some caffienne into my body and eventually perked up and actually got some things accomplished.
Then I got a call form my daughter Megan asking me to go to the $3 movies with her to see "Due Date." I did, and may I say that I laughed like a crazy person. If you saw "The Hangover" and liked it, you must see "Due Date." You will enjoy it. Too funny!

Next on my list for New Year's Eve celebrations I went to a church out on Longely where my church band was scheduled to play for their party. Here they are on stage playing some great music. Everyone seemed to really enjoy them. They were all up dancing and having a great time.

(I DO NOT dance)

New Year's Eve has come. The year's just zip by way too quickly for my tastes! I actually had invitations this year---That hasn't happened in some time!
I began the evening by going by the home of my friend Jacque. Here she is presiding over the huge amounts of yummy food and goodies that were available. They are such an awesome family! I am so enjoying getting to know them and it feels really special to be invited to share in their celebration.
