A few chores to get done this morning and then I need to finish up the card kits for class tonight!  That's about it for today!

Have a wonderful day!

The card - I stamped the background stamp with three different colors and then die cut the butterfly from the center of the stamped images.  Then I just popped the butterfly up in the same space.  Super easy!

The card - oops I missed posting a few Mother's Day cards. (although I think this sentiment would work for a birthday too!)   
 ðŸ˜€  The background panel is white with a die cut panel of patterned paper on the top.  Easy peasy!  

'Grandam time' with Ethan today.  Plus Jeff's birthday dinner tonight.  Did some of the meal prep yesterday but still have to make some ice cream and a cake.  It's a good day for Ethan to take a nice long nap!!!!

Have a wonderful day!

Saturday quote......

Just hanging out today - no big plans.  Will watch the boys for a bit while Jeff is here hooking up the air conditioner and a couple other honey-do's!  That will probably be the highlight of my day 😉

Have a terrific day!

The card - I stamped a bit of grunge down the right hand side and then embossed the entire panel.  The balloon is punched out and popped up and then I drew the line with a fine tip pen.  'Celebrate' is a die cut.

The card - top piece is patterned paper.   The 'happy' and the arrow are die cut.  'Birthday' is stamped on the background below the patterned paper.  Super simple, but a good 'guy card'.

Planting day!  Got all the flowers purchased yesterday (at least I hope I got them all!) so today it's time to put them in the ground - or pots as the case may be.  Looking forward to dinner and crafting with friends tonight!

Have a great day!

The card - background piece is embossed.  Triangles (SU) are all die cut.  Super easy and fun to do in a variety of colors!

And I'm off this morning to buy flowers!  Always love this part of spring.  I always miss my Dad when this day comes around.  Buying and planting the flowers for the yard was always something we did together.  Special memories!!!

Have a wonderful day!

Photo Sunday - always love when the lilacs are blooming in the spring!   Glad I had my phone with me when Ethan and I were out for a walk the other day!  

Not sure what I'm doing today.  Thinking about stamping.  Guess I'll see how motivated I am after a walk and a shower!

Have a wonderful day!
