Thank you!



Hi, Friends!

It's been almost three weeks since I've been here on  my blog.  I had surgery on 4-28 and am coming along well.  I got the staples out today and it feels much better!  Thank you for your prayers, support, and cards!  It's appreciated!

Above is a card that I made before my surgery.  It is a thank you card that I gave to my physical therapy guy who came to the house for two weeks.  The sentiments are from Sunny Studio and the stars are from Creative Worship(formerly Sweet 'n Sassy).  Twine and gems to finish the card.  

Next up,  a card that I sent to a friend...



I made the above card several week ago.  The images and sentiment are from Lawn Fawn.  Those cute butterflies make me smile!  The clouds and sun are from Spellbinder's.  Gems to finish this card.

Beautiful days are coming for this weekend.  The temps will be in the 80's.  I'm ready for some warmer weather.  I hope to sit out on the deck and enjoy some sunshine!  

Thanks so much for dropping by!  Take care and have a good rest of the week!

Hugs!

You Grow Girl!



Hi, Friends!

I'd like to share with you a card I made for my sister for her birthday.  She loves to garden and grow flowers!  She takes after my Mom with having a green thumb!  All images, sentiments, frame, and grass die are from Lawn Fawn.  The clouds are from Spellbinder's.  Gold dots and some gold spray to finish the card.  I was inspired by Elena Roussakis when I saw her card using the cute images.  I knew the card would be perfect for my sis, so I couldn't resist purchasing the stamp set.  

Here is the card by Elena Roussakis...







I'm entering this card over at NBUS Challenge.



Ok, friends that's all for now.  Thanks so much for dropping by!  Take care and have a great rest of the week!

Hugs!

Happy Birthday!



Hi, there!

I made a simple shaker birthday card for a nephew.  I used the fun birthday wishes die from Pretty Pink Posh and filled it with gems from Pink Fresh.  The background was die cut using a die from The Greetery.  Iridescent White Cord from Simon Says to finish the card.  I'm entering this card over at




I didn't think I'd say this so soon in April, but it is too hot, lol!  It reached 83 here yesterday.  It is warm and humid.  We may have some storms late this evening.  It feels tropical.  For the weekend, it will drop back down to the 50's.  Signs of spring are everywhere and I love seeing that the weeping cherry tree has bloomed.  I can view it out my craft room window, so pretty!

Ok, my friends, that's all for now.  I hope you have a great rest of the week!  Take care and thanks so much for dropping by today!

Happy Birthday!




Hi Friends!

I hope you all had a wonderful blessed Easter yesterday!  We had a delicious potluck breakfast at church in the morning and then went out with family to one of our favorite restaurants.  It was a cold day in the 40's, but at least it wasn't raining.  Many signs of spring showing around here with lovely daffodils, green grass and trees starting to sprout their leaves.  

Anyways, I'd like to share with you the above card I made for a friend.  I love those pretty potted daffodil images from Pretty Pink Posh.  The scalloped background die is from Lawn Fawn and the sentiments are from Honey Bee.  I made the wood shelf with a strip of paper and colored it with copics.  Gold dots from SU to finish the card.  I'm entering this card over at The Four Seasons Challenge.




Thank you so much for dropping by today!  Now off to your blogs to see what beautiful projects you have created!  Take care!

Hugs!
