Especially for You

Hello, happy Sunday and Happy Mother's Day!  I spent some time yesterday playing with the RVA Scrappers celebrating NSD and I completed all the make and takes and the card that I am sharing.  I used mostly scraps of paper, the Sizzix rain boot die and a Me & My Big Ideas sticker for the sentiment.  The rain boot is one of the dies that I was enabled to buy after seeing a YT haul video and one that I like alot so I will be using it again soon.  I am sharing this for the May Flower challenge #395 over at  Shopping Our Stash.

Thank you for your visit, I hope you will return again soon.

Teacher Appreciation

Hello and happy Friday, mild temps in the forecast for our area today.  It's Friday and I'm here to share a last minute card that I had to mass produce for my daughter.  She is in her last year of high school and for some reason decided that she wanted to do something for her teachers so I made a this card after looking on the internet for quick and simple ideas!  I literally took the picture as we were trying to get out the door after she asked me to write the note on the inside of the cards so it looks a little blurred.  I used a Darice embossing folder, the pencil is a cut from the Nate's ABCs Cricut cartridge and the sentiment is from the Cricut Sampler cartridge.  I thought about adding some stars but since I had to put these together without any help from my daughter I kept it simple!  This week we have recognized; police, nurses and teachers and we are thankful for the important work that they do!  I'm sharing this card for the anything goes challenge #89 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit, wishing you a wonderful weekend as most will celebrate mothers and college graduates.

Tea Time

Hello and happy Thursday, sunny skies in our area after a rain storm yesterday.  Today's project share is a coffee/tea themed Mother's Day card created using sketch inspiration from the May sketch challenge #419 over at Die Cuttin' Divas.  I used papers from the Shimelle True Stories 6x6 paper pad, dies to cut the square and circle and the A Child's Year Cricut cartridge for the cup; finished the card by adding a few C.C. Designs enamel dots.   I am sharing this card for the May Anything Goes  challenge #34 over at Love to Craft. and the Spring/Summer Coffee Lover's Blog Hop over at Coffee Loving Cardmakers where you'll find lots of great inspiration!

Thank you for your visit, I hope you'll return soon.

Mother's Day

Hello and happy sunny Tuesday, I'm back today to share another Mother's Day card.  I'm running late I hope to get all of my cards in the mail by tomorrow so they will arrive on time.  I created this card using sketch inspiration from Sketch N Scrap #145, paper from the Ki Memories Growing Garden 6x6 paper pad, used the Cricut Create-a-Critter 2 cartridge for the sentiment and finished it by adding some Simple Stories enamel dots.  I am sharing this card for the Female or Mom  challenge #109 over at Always Fun Challenges and the Mother's Day challenge over at Bitten by the Bug 2.

Thank you for your visit and I hope you'll return soon.

Super Sweet

Hello Sunday and happy Cinco de Mayo!  It has been raining since last night so that means less outside time today as the rain continues and the possibility of a storm.   I didn't get to play for National Scrapbooking day yesterday so I got up early this morning and decided to play before getting ready for church.  Today's card share uses sketch inspiration from Tuesday Morning Sketches #501, paper from the Ki Memories 6x6 paper pad, a Studio G cupcake stamp (colored with color pencils) and some Queen & Co Jellies.  I am sharing this card for the Hello Cupcake challenge #394 over at Shopping Our Stash and the Anything Goes challenge #88 over at Cardz TV.

Thank you for your visit, enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Wednesday Wanderings

Hello and happy Wednesday, warm temps in our area today.  I have been so busy that I haven't had time to share, but I wanted to stop in today to share a little update on some things that I have been working on, I have so many pictures that I need to scrap but I just haven't had the time and I'm not sure when I will have the time!  Today I am sharing a little picture collage of what happened today,  this morning our daughter presented her senior thesis and it was also decision day for the seniors. Monday night I had to make sure she had stuff to decorate her locker (pictured)  and last night/this morning I made a photo booth and props for their decision day pictures.  We have just forty more days until graduation!

Thank you for your visit, please come again soon.
