Father's Day

First, I want to say Happy 24th Anniversary to my wonderful husband, Mark!  We will be celebrating tonight at an Italian restaurant we both enjoy! 

I know Mother's day has not even happened yet but we will do this card next week at card class for Father's day or can be any occasion! 

I got this inspiration from my friend and fellow demo, Brian King from stampwithbrian.com.

I love the triple time stamping but love it even more with the use of several different card stock colors!

Thanks for stopping by!

Enjoy your Tuesday!

PP194 For Mother

First, Happy Cinco de Mayo!  

I just wanted to make a card with mostly purple for my Mom.  I already made a Mother's Day card and got it off in the mail. But I mail my mom a card each Friday.  If it is late, she calls!  She looks forward to going to that mail box for her handmade card and it usually comes on Tues. (from Orlando to Atlanta)

I hope you have a wonderful Monday and thanks for stopping by!

From A Friend

On Monday night, I attended a special event for demos!  We were not only able to see the new catalog, but get it in our hands!  That was special but the most fun was meeting up with 4 other Pals and eating and visiting before hand and experiencing the new catalog reveal together, too! 

My friend and fellow Pal, Frenchie, gave us these candy/treat holders she made!  Love it!  The colors and the chocolate!

Enjoy your weekend!  My college girl is home for about a week and we will be shopping!

Thanks for stopping by!

FMS134 Get Well

Nice sketch this week.  My first thought was the Secret Garden set and I would use several of the flowers in that set (which I will miss since it is retiring) but it would not accommodate all that flowers in that space so went with the same one in a trio!

I have a fellow Pal that is sick and made this card for her!  I hope you have a blessed Friday!

Thanks for stopping by!

PPA202 There's You!

Love how this card turned out!  I liked the color combo but I have a hard time with what to do for a  layout.  So I had to start with the stamped image and that helped me to figure out what to do for the layout.  I loved using the polka dot Bermuda Bay on the front.  It makes me smile!

Have a lovely day and keep smiling!
