The card - used a variety of colors for the background and then stamped the sentiment on the top in black.  Added just of bit of grunge on one side.and some bling.

Well, I have to say it has been quite the birthday month!  I do love June!  I started celebrating on the first and most appropriately will be ending the month today with just one last celebration!  Judy and I are going to lunch and then who knows what adventures we will have!  But, seriously, I do have the best friends and family ever and I thank you all for a terrific birthday month!  It has been awesome!

Have a great day!

The card - more from this fun SU set.  I still have a hard time with the whole 'offset' thing sometimes - it makes everything look crooked to me :)

I'm catching up.....the house is clean and the laundry is done - woo hoo!  Now, today I think I better get some work done for my Thirty-One business.

Have a terrific day!

The card - I used a square clear block to stamp the background squares and then just stamped the image (flowers from Penny Black) and the sentiment over the top.  

Oh my....a totally free day.  What am I going to do with myself?   I do need to get a few chores done around the house and then I really need to sit down and regroup.  I've been having so much fun the last few weeks, but I guess It's time to do real life for a while now :)

Have a great day!

The card- circles are stamps from SU.  I stamped them randomly with blue and green and then added a background of printed paper, a flower from Prima and a flagged sentiment.

Too quiet today since the company left this morning - although I'm having an extra 'Grandma day' since the babysitter is sick.  So the quiet is not as bad as it could be :)  We had such a good time and coming right after vacation I haven't had much reality happening for several weeks.  I think the rest of this week is going to be rather boring!!!
Have a great day!!

Missed this guy while I was gone!

A little extra 'Grandma time' today while the kids go play golf and then my company from California will be arriving this afternoon.  Having a BBQ at Jeff & Sara's this evening.  It's going to be a good day!

Have a wonderful day!

Well, today is the first day of June!  Woo hoo!  For those of you who have been following this blog for a while you might remember that my birthday is the middle of June - some of you might be wondering then, why I'm excited about the first of June.  Well.....because it's my BIRTHDAY MONTH!  Yep, I like to stretch that celebrating out just as long as I can.  And it begins tonight - isn't that lucky?   We have our Shoebox Club tonight but instead of doing cards we're celebrating my birthday!  Awesome!  And so it begins....I LOVE Birthday month!!!!!

Have a great day!
