Have a wonderful day!

Saturday Quote...(I did make a mess, but I made some cool stuff in the process :)     

Off to the Farmer's Market in a bit and then I need to do a few errands.  Not sure what I'll do with the rest of the day, but have I have several things that I need to work on so I just need to choose one! (or two or 3)

Have a wonderful day!

Got a little side tracked this morning.  Having the boys here overnight tends to do that!  LOL.  We've been to the Farmer's market for my weekly supply of peaches, corn and cantaloupe.  Now we're just hanging out.

The card - embossed piece in the background plus some patterned paper, die cut leafy stem, some bling and a die cut sentiment piece.  Super easy!

Not sure what's happening today - had plans for a stamping day with a friend, but there might be a conflict.  Just waiting to hear what's on the agenda :)   But, looking forward to the boys spending the night - dinner, movie and popcorn will be happening tonight :)  

Have a wonderful day!

The card - the panel is embossed, then I wiped a black ink pad across the debossed side.  Then I used sponge daubers to add color to the flowers.  Add some twine and a sentiment piece.

I have no idea what I'm doing today.  I was so productive yesterday that all the laundry is done and the house is clean so.......    I do have some weeds to deal with in the lawn, but then even the yard work will be done.  So many things to choose from, I'm sure I can find something to do!  :)

Have a wonderful day!

The card - patterned paper, die cuts, a sentiment and some butterflies - easy peasy!

Had a wonderful day yesterday - we ended up driving up to Ouray and spent the day having lunch and just wandering in and out of the tourist shops.  It was good to get away for the day - and especially good because the smoke and fire smell from the fires was really bad here  yesterday!  Luckily the  wind had blown most of it away by the time we got back to town!    My plan is to spend most of the day in the stamp room!

Have a wonderful day!

Today is Hudson's last day before he goes back to school tomorrow.  He has a whole list of stuff he wants to do including donuts for breakfast, bowling, McDonald's for lunch and a few other things.  It's going to be a FUN day!

Have a great day!

The card - patterned paper and die cuts.  Super easy!

Sorry about missing yesterday.  The boys ended up spending the night and Hudson sleeps in the spare room where my computer is.  By the time he got up I ended up forgetting about the blog :)  But we had a great day - went to a cool old west museum in Montrose.  It was pretty cool.  Hudson spent the night again last night - he says he needs a break from Ethan sometimes :)  We have a few errands to do this morning and then my afternoon with the Needle Keepers.   Going to miss these fun summer days when school starts!  

Have a wonderful day!

Photo Sunday - getting taller every year!

Mowing the lawn this morning is my only plan for the day.  After that it's off to church and then I'm thinking it's a good day for an afternoon of r & r - a little reading and maybe even a nap.

Have a wonderful day!

Off to Farmer's Market for my weekly load of fruits and veggies.   Then.....not too sure.  I really have no plan for today so I guess I'll go with the flow.  Maybe some yard work, maybe some stamping, maybe a little of each.  Or maybe a lazy day reading.
