Have to go to the dentist today and get a tooth pulled - ugh - doesn't sound like fun for sure!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Colors are white, pear, poppy and peach.

Rain, rain, go away!  Enough already.  I'm ready for some sunshine!  Doesn't look like we're going to see any sunshine again today though - just more rain.  Ugh!  Guess I'll just try to ignore the weather, get stuff together for my class tonight and maybe get some stamping done.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - stamped image is from Unity.  Colors are white and pretty in pink. 

Gosh, are we ever going to see sunshine again?   Not this week, according to the weather report.  At this rate it's going to be June before the rest of my rose bushes get trimmed.   Guess I should use the time wisely and get some 'indoor' stuff done.

Enjoy your day!

The card - another one with the same set as yesterday (from SU)  Colors are navy, white and celery.

The weather is messing with my plan for the week!  Doesn't look like I'm going to get much yard work done for the next few days.  Doesn't really hurt my feelings, but I still have a lot of rose bushes that need to be trimmed!  Oh well, I guess they'll get done eventually.  I guess it's a good time to get started on some wedding invite samples!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - flower stamps are from SU, sentiment is Hero Arts.  Colors are pacific point and wild wasabi.  (this is a new set from SU that I just got and I'm having a lot of fun with it!)

I had planned on getting back to the yard work today - however the weather report does not look good for the entire coming week.  Not good!  I need to come up with an alternate plan I guess.  I do need to get things together for my class tonight.

Have a fabulous day!

Photo Saturday - flowers, flowers and more flowers!

Spent a lot of time at nurseries yesterday - I love looking at all the flowers.  Got what I needed, even got the patio flowers planted.  Now I need to do the planters in the front and I will be good to go! 

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU - colors are black, white and marina mist.


Note to all:  I did post yesterday and it was up for awhile, but there is a problem with Blogger - not sure if my missing post will reappear or not!   Hence the late post today too.

Just on a little break from 'flower shopping'.  Trying to get my flowers for the patio and front planters - not sure if I'll have enough energy left to plant them today, but I will be ready to go tomorrow for sure!

Have a great day!

The card - stamped images are from SU.  Butterflies are pirouette pink, florish is pear.  Simple, but rather elegant.

Tonight is our Shoebox Club and, as usual, I don't have a clue what my project is going to be.  Looks like I better get to work on that!

Have a great day!

The card - stems are from SU, sentiment is Hero Arts.  Clowers are Prima.  Colors are dusty durango and white. 

Need to get the rest of the class kits bagged and do a couple of errands today.  Ugh, nasty wind this morning - hope it calms down a bit before I have to go out to do my errands.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - everything on this card was printed in SU's MDS.  Sherry did this card at our last stamp club and I really liked it but don't have the stamp set yet.  (it's ordered though :)  So I decided to try to replicate it with MDS.  Worked pretty good!   I printed the background on kraft, the flowers on vanilla, then cut out the flowers and popped up the small ones.   



Happy

Mother's

Day

Photo Saturday - after the rain comes the rainblow.  I took this on Easter night - it was too bad I didn't have a nice big wide-angle lens because it went all the way across - pretty awesome.

Back to the yard work today - I got a lot done yesterday, but still have lots more to do!

Enjoy your day!
