Thank You!



Hi, Friends!

I'd like to share with you a card I made for my PT lady.  I used copic markers and distress inks for the cute butterflies and pretty flowers.  The background is supposed to be a light blue, but it doesn't show well in this photo.  I'm entering this card over at A Cut Above Challenge.





Well, I have just a little bit of time before hubby comes home from helping with the Lion's Club sandwich sale.  He said he'd take me out to dinner.  I need to clean up my craft room.  It's going to take awhile, but at least I'll clean up my desk area.  I need to organize stamps and find new spots for everything that has accumulated on the desk.  Does that happen to you?  It happens to me all the time, lol!

Ok, friends, I'll close here for now.  Take care and thanks so much for dropping by today!  Have a great weekend!

Hugs!

Life's a PICNIC with you!




Hi, Friends!

I'd like to share with you a card I made for my hubby for our anniversary.  I used lots of Lawn Fawn goodies on this card!  I had a couple of the sets, but did purchase the new Crazy Antics stamps and dies because they are just too darn cute!  Our anniversary is later this month, which is the day after Father's Day.  Stay tuned for I have more of the adorable mice that I used for his Father's Day card!

For the card, I started with the Outside in Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Die in blue for the sky.  Simple Grassy Hillsides die for the grass.  The tree and bird are from the set Heart Tree.  The flowers are from the set Garden Mouse.  The sun and clouds are from the set All the Clouds.  All images were colored with copics.  I'm entering this card over at the Lawn Fawn Challenge.  I hope this card qualifies for the challenge since my hubby is my best friend!




Supplies:

Outside in Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Stackables die
Simple Grassy Hillsides die
All the Clouds stamps, dies
Crazy Antics stamps, dies
Heart Tree stamps, dies
Garden Mouse(flowers) stamp, die


I'm also entering this card over at NBUS Challenge.


 

Ok, friends!  I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!  Take care and thanks so much for taking the time to drop by today!

Hugs!

Sweet as can bee!




Hi there!

Popping in today to share with you a card that I made for a friend who has a milestone birthday next month!  She loves bees, so I colored the sweet bees from Pretty Pink Posh and placed them against the beehive stencil background from Tim Holtz.  The numbers are from Taylored Expressions.    Polka strips of paper added to the sides to finish the card.

I'd like to share with you a few photos of my sister's bday party on Tuesday.  She had a milestone birthday last month.  We finally got together due to my one sis having knee surgery and I had my surgery.  She turned 80 last month, so we had to have a special celebration for her.  We had a great time at my sister's cottage with great food and fun!

me, Cecilia, Donna(bday girl), Lucretia, Christina

The sign behind us says...80 is only
27 in Celsisus!





This was my sister's bday card for she loves
to garden.  I had already posted this card on 
4-22-26.



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

Hugs!

Happy Birthday!



Hi, Friends!

I'd like to share with you a card that I made for my niece's birthday!  I didn't put a birthday sentiment on the front for I didn't want to cover up the image.  I started with coloring the new lilac image from Hero Arts with copics.  I used Nuvo drops in yellow for the center of the flowers.  I haven't used Nuvo drops in ages!  The background panels were die cut using dies from Emily Moore.  A bow and gems to finish the card.  I'm entering this card over at NBUS Challenge  and Four Seasons Challenge.





It turned cold again today.  Yesterday it was in the 80's.  It's now only 58 degrees.  Hubby took me to a favorite place after my PT session today.  It was great to get out and enjoy delicious food!  

My yellow iris flowers are in full bloom and look very pretty!  Hubby planted geraniums for me in our big pots around the house.  The dark red color looks beautiful!  It's great to see all the lovely color around the yard again!  We've been seeing a hummingbird come to the feeder and it's been so fun watching it!

EDIT:


Ok, that's all for now.  Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by today!  Have a great rest of the week, take care!

Hugs!
