Photo Sunday - can't beat good ol' cardboard for some fun playtime!

Catch up day.  Time to do a little cleaning.  Not sure why, but it hasn't been done for a while.  The boys will be here tomorrow and Hudson for the rest of the week, so it's probably a lost cause, but it will be good for today!

Have a great day!

Looking forward to a day of stamping with my friend Karen.  Productive?  Who knows, but I'm going to enjoy the day!

Have a marvelous day!

The card - super simple one today.  All the parts are just stamped directly on the background panel.   A bit of bling is added to the small flowers.

No big plans for today, but I think I'll spend a little time playing with some stamps!  

Have a wonderful day!

The card - background is embossed.  Flower panel is die cut and then I colored the flowers and leaves with a sponge brush.  I stamped the sentiment on the background before I embossed!  Add a bit of bling and a ribbon bow.

No big plans today, but I do have some errands to do this morning.  After that I hope it's warm enough in the garage to do a bit of straightening up - it's getting a bit too messy!  

Have a great day!

The card - background is embossed.  The top smaller panel is embossed on just the left side.  Leaf stems are die cut, flower is punched out and popped up.  Pretty darn easy!

Totally free day - hmmmm....not sure what the plan is.  Well, actually I don't have a plan.  More caffeine and then maybe I can figure it out! 😀

Have a terrific day!

The card - background is embossed.  Middle section is plain cardstock with a border of color behind the top and bottom.  The sentiment is stamped directly on the middle panel.  The  flowers and green leaves are stamped, die cut and popped up.  The white leaves  and top piece of the flowers are just die cut.  

Chores this morning.  Looking forward to lunch and stitching with the Needle Keepers this afternoon.  Class tonight.  A busy day!

Have a great day! 

The card - flower in background is a die cut. Layers of cardstock with stamped speckles, patterned paper and a die cut sentiment piece with a border of punched gold underneath.    Added some gold twine.

'Grandma time' with Ethan today.  That's all.

Have a wonderful day!

The card - I stamped a few flowers in a matching color on the background panel.  The smaller panel is embossed and sponged on the edge.  The tag is die cut and popped up.

It needs to be a stamping day!  Time has gotten away from me this month and now I must get the class projects done !

Have a wonderful day!

The card - just some patterned paper and some flower/greenery die cuts.  Sentiment piece is stamped and then die cut.  Super easy!

Time for a few chores around the house and then a quick (I hope) eye Dr appointment later this morning.  Looking forward to a nice relaxing afternoon with the Needle Keepers.  

Have a great day!

(I could also substitute beach for that one - I would be happy at either I think!)  

'Grandma time' with Hudson today.  We haven't had time for just the two of us in a long time!  He was pretty funny last night (we had a sleepover) when we were starting our movie - he said, 'Grandma, we can be as noisy as we want!'  I seem to always be telling him to be quiet when Ethan is sleeping :)  It's supposed to snow so it looks like an indoor day - when I ask him what we were going to do he said 'play games ALL day!'.  So, on to breakfast and then games!

Have a wonderful day!

Saturday Quote......(and this is sooo true!)

'Grandma time' with both boys today.  Hudson is spending the night though so we can have some special time tonight and tomorrow.  It's been a long time since it's been just the two of us!  So, it will be a fun weekend.

Have a great day!

The card - leaves are stamped.  The tiny leaves are die cut from silver.  Added some speckles, ribbon and a sentiment.  Super easy!

Ended up doing some reorganizing in the stamp room yesterday.  One thing leads to another when I'm doing that - lol!  Need to finish that up today and clean up my mess!  

Have a great day!

The card - leaves in the background are stamped, solid leaves are die cut.  Flowers are stamped and then punched out.  Each flower has two flowers layered one on top of each other.  

Yesterday the reading and napping pretty much won out for the day's activity.  I really need to try and be productive today.  😀

Have a wonderful day!  

The card - background panel is embossed.  Leaves and sentiment are die cut.  (one leaf set is card stock, the other one is cut from vellum).  Striped strip is Washi tape.  Super easy!

A couple of errands this morning and then......?  Not sure what I'll do the rest of the day.  Stamping?  Knitting?  Reading?  Napping?  So many choices. 

Have a great day!

The card - not much stamping here - flowers and leaves are all die cut using patterned paper.  Background is patterned paper and is embossed.  Sentiment piece is stamped and die cut.  

Need to do some cleaning this morning - I've put it off too long.  Looking forward to a nice relaxing afternoon with the Needle Keepers.

Have a great day!
