Hello there!

No, I haven't fallen off the face of the earth...I am just knee deep in boxes.  Our family is moving in a few days, so most of my "free" time has been trying to package our life in to appropriate size boxes.

I have done a little stamping now and then and you are going to have to wait to see some of it.

Here is a simple spring like card that was inspired by another card that I made (and was used prior to being photographed).

The stamp is from Rubbernecker Stamp Company (Weeds #497-13) and the designer paper is from Making memories.
I colored the image with markers, stamped, and then I highlighted the buds with Stickles.

Just a simple card!

Coming soon... new releases from Starving Artistamps (do I hear a blog hop???) and the 100th Color Thow Down!!!

Thanks for stopping by here, today!

3 gifts for Grandma

Today, Saturday, my girls and I went to Toledo to have brunch at my mom’s church.  It was a very sweet luncheon, and it was great to see many of the people that surrounded me when I was growing up. 
It was also my mom’s birthday this past week.  So in honor of her birthday and Mother’s Day, we were armed with gifts.  Each of us made a gift.
My 6 yr old decorated a magnetic picture frame:
Joy bug
My 12 year old designed and made this card:
by Graci 
And I made a gift using a 7 Gypsies printer tray:

Closer looks (click to make bigger):

The dp is from Bo Bunny—the Sophie Collection.  The accessories and embellishments are MANY (which is why it was so fun for me to make)!!
I also used stamps from Starving Artistamps (Plaque Set and Mini Positive Words) and Rubbernecker Stamp Company (Butterfly Inchies and Silhouette Florals).
Mom seemed to enjoy them!
Thanks Mom, for all you do for us!
Thanks for stopping by!!!  Have a GREAT Mother’s Day!
