My first time playing with new set Sea Street and matching DSP.  It was fun playing with Mr. Octopus but then what sentiment goes? I choose some yippee to go with the sea friends!
Have a wonderful Thursday and thanks for stopping by!

Handmade by Amanda!


Here are a couple of cards my daughter made when home last week.  She likes having some with her at school to use for when an occasion comes up.  She was so proud designing her own cards.  She loves to work the Big Shot, too.
I hope your Wednesday is awesome and thanks for stopping by!

New Colors!!!


This card is for my card classes this week. It features new in colors like the Blackberry Bliss on the card front.  I love having a new purple..was hoping for an orchid type shade but this color is so rich. The DSP stack called Moonlight used above on the panel and the oval has the Blackberry and Hello Honey and neutral shades. I like these colors together. 
Thanks for stopping by today and hope you have a lovely Tuesday!

PP195 Just Because Best of Butterflies



I like this color challenge and my mind went to flowers when saw these colors but then I wanted to do something other than flowers.  I then thought of my butterflies and how I love this one butterfly stamp I used on this card.  I also love the script in this sentiment.  I wish there was a whole set in the same font/script.
Enjoy your Monday and thanks for stopping by!

Happy Mother's Day!






Actually it is my first Mother's day without my first born with me.  My college girl left yesterday to head back to school for 6 weeks of summer classes and returns home around June 21st.  We went out to celebrate Friday night and I have my baby (who is 16) here today but it just ain't the same!
Love that girl. We went to get our nails done together on Wednesday (pic above).
She made several cards herself while home but I just love this one!  This was my Mother's Day.  She made the kimono herself.  She also works the big shot like a pro! It says love in Japanese. .
I am so proud of her!

Here is a pic of my baby boy so I am not showing favor!

Have a Happy Mother's Day!
