Spring things...

It's been a gray week, lots of rain and clouds. So happy to see the sun shining this morning although rain is supposed to return tomorrow.
Sharing a few Spring items with you today...

This is the card I made for Wes & Michelle, not a coinsidence that it's done in the same colors as the wedding.

I took this photo last week, they have already hatched and hoping to get a photo of the babies this afternoon.

We spend a couple of nights a week at one ball field or another between Tyler's T-Ball and Sarah's softball. Last night Sarah's team played their final game, a nail biter, and won, ending the season with a perfect record, winning all 17 games! Congratulations Lady Bees!!!

Tyler has a couple more weeks to play.
Enjoy your day!
Be back soon.

Oh, Baby...

A few of the cards I created last week...

We are awaiting the arrival of 2 new little ones in our family, our second neice in August and our sixth grandchild in September, and we are thrilled.

Hope you are having a great week, I'll have a few journal pages to share in the next few days.

Be back soon.

Birthday greetings...

Since our move, I've been on a mission to clear out some of my paper. Here are a couple of birthday cards I created using leftover bits and pieces from a papercrafting kit from Crate Paper...

Love my little feathered friends, the stamp set is from Clear Art Stamps.

It's raining here this morning so I'll be inside for a while and hope to get a few more cards finished up.

Hope your day is filled with sunshine.

Be back soon.

Good morning...

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend. Saturday was our anniversary and we spent the day together, exploring, a little shopping and a wonderful meal. Not much created in the studio over the weekend however several cards to share from last week...

The little girl image is from a vintage sewing pattern.

Cut the daffodils for this one from an old notecard.

My youngest brother is getting married the day before Mother's Day, on Ocracoke Island, so that's where we will be celebrating this year.

Still a lot of new cards to share this week along with a few photos from our weekend. Hope your weekend is great!

Be back soon.

Happy Friday

As I mentioned yesterday, I've been working on cards this week and have gotten close to 30 made so far. Thought I would share a few today...

It's been wonderful spending time creating again, hope you enjoy seeing my work.

Many more new cards to post over the next week.

Have a great weekend.

Be back soon.

Easter...

We are finally settled in our new place and life is getting back into a routine of sorts. A lot of changes for us but we have grown used to change and welcome whatever comes our way.
I made a lot of Easter cards for the Gallery and thought I would share a couple...

Happy Easter

Easter Joys
and a few photos...

Sweet Miss Emma

Gabriel, the tongue makes him go faster!

and Miss Hannah, growing up way too fast.

We had a lovely day, our first family dinner in our new home.

My apologies for being away for so long, long story for another day.

Happy Spring!

Be back soon.

Butterfly Dreams...

One of my favorite card makers is Dawn McVey, I love visiting her blog for inspiration. Yesterday she posted a beautiful butterfly card and today I spent some time working on a few of my own...

Same concept...3 different cards.

Hope your days are filled with butterfly dreams.

Be back soon.

Be my Valentine...

I have always been a big fan of homemade Valentine's. I still have one that I made as a child.
Here are a few I made last night to sell at the market...

I just love using vintage images. As if you haven't already figured that out!

Another busy day ahead, a few more cards to make and several other projects, all going at once.

No idle hands here...

Hope your day is delightful and filled with joy.

Be back soon.
