Holy Ship! It's Your Birthday... Card

Hello again! I have been on a slimline card kick lately. I love the endless possibilities they offer. I think this card I made for my Godmother is hilarious! My parents, Godparents and Auntie were supposed to cruise earlier this year when that dang virus began. So I thought this was appropriate to give to her. I sure do hope she appreciates my humor, I'm pretty sure she will 😄

Enjoy Your Summer

Hello again! 

So if you don't already know Tuesday Mornings is going out of business. As a crafter this is heartbreaking, because I liked getting my paper pads there. As I was perusing the aisles, I saw a cute Legoland Florida beach towel with a shark and Emmett dressed up as a shark and I purchased it for my nephew, Brandon. His mama raised him to love sharks like his mama and his Titi Jen. So I made him this dancing shark card to go with his towel to celebrate the end of school and beginning of summer.

Jaded Blossom Challenge: Summer

Hello again!


Yesterday Jaded Blossom posted some fabulous projects from the DT to help inspire us to create something summery! I thought why not make something early, and since my weekend was dreary with rain, thunderstorms and tornado watches around us, I happily stayed in my room and made this cute summer banner that is now hanging in my office.
