Hello!





Hi, Friends!

Happy Saturday to you!  I hope you are having a great weekend so far!  I finished the above card to keep in my stash.  I didn't have a specific person to send this to yet.  I know that it can be used for most any occasion, so I added the hello sentiment from Altenew.  The flowers were die cut using Altnew dies.  The petals were sponged with white ink and gems added to finish the card.  I've seen quite a few cards recently using Bold Bloom dies from Spellbinder's using this same design from Jennifer McGuire.  I decided to use colors that were already on my craft desk.  Lots of die cutting, but fun to put together with such an easy design!  I'm sure I'll be making more cards with this design in different colors.

This may very well be my last post for several weeks, since my hip surgery is on May 29th.  But, I'm sure that I'll be visiting your blogs to see your lovely creations.  And, wouldn't you know that the weather is going to nice next weekend.  Lately, it has been cool and rainy.  Today the sun is finally shining, though.  The warmer weather will give me incentive to walk and exercise that hip around our deck.  I'll be back to creating before you know it!

Ok, friends, thanks so much for taking the time to drop by!  Take care and have a great weekend!

Hugs!

Happy Birthday!




Hi, Friends!

I'm just popping in quick to share with you a card that I made for my sister.  Her birthday is next month and she loves to swim.  Also, she loves flamingos.  I can certainly see her floating in her pool with a tropical drink in hand.  It is her happy place!  Now, we just need some warmer weather!  

For my card, I started with a white card base and used a die from Lawn Fawn for the pool.  The girl image, sun, and sentiment is from MFT.  The flamingo, flowers, pineapple, and leaf is from Sunny Studio.  

Ok, friends, that's all for now.  I hope you are having a great week so far!  Thanks so much for taking the time to drop by today, take care!

Hugs!

Thinking of You!





Hi, Friends!

Happy Friday to you!  I needed a thinking of you card for a former co-worker who will be having surgery in a few weeks.  She loves sunflowers, so I got out a stamp set from MFT and colored the image with copics.  The die cut panels are from Emily Moore and the sentiment is from Sunny Studio.  Ribbon and gems added to finish the card.  

I'm entering this card over at Word Art Wednesday 



Ok, that's all for now, my friends!  Thanks so much for dropping by!  Take care and have a wonderful Mother's Day weekend!





Hugs!
