This is your special day!



 
Hi there!
 
I'm in summer school!  It's always good to learn!  I know that I love learning things or improving my card designing.  So, I saw the challenge over at My Favorite Things.  It is Lesson #5-Balance:  Quiet Space/White Space.  My inspiration is from Kay Miller as I cased this stunning card made by her...
 
 
 
I love Kay's style!  She makes the most gorgeous cards!  Thank you, Kay, for the inspiration!  The dies and stamp used on my card are from MFT.  The enamel dots are from Doodlebug. 
 
That's it for now friends!  My husband managed to mow the lawn between rains!:-)  So much rain lately...wow!  My prayers go out to those who have been affected with the flooding.  The house and yard work is done, so now it's time to go out and play...shopping...and dinner...yum!  Whatever you have planned for the weekend...have fun!  And, Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's out there!  Thanks so much for dropping by!  Take care!
 
Hugs,
Maria
