Floral beauty

Here is another floral Gina K stamp that I used to create this simple card.

The sentiment is also from Gina K.

This card would be beautiful with a bit of color added but I like it the way it is.

You could use this card for a sympathy or a thinking of you card. 

A Prayer...

There always seems to be a need for Sympathy Cards lately. 

I made this one using a Gina K floral stamp. It is simply beautiful. I added a bit of color to the flowers and a few leaves and then embellished with a few pearls from amuse studio.

The sentiment is from PaperTrey Ink

White on white is one of my favorite looks.

what every girl needs...

I used my portrait silouette to personalize this tool kit for my niece for her graduation gift.

Every girl or guy needs to take one of these with them when they go to college. You get so much use out of it. My boss sent one with each of her daughters when they went to college and people laughed...but you would not believe how many people asked to borrow it!

It's loaded with everything she will need!!

more fun treats

These patriotic Hershey kisses are a fun treat for your 4th of July party.

I found the stars at TJ Maxx and stamped the sentiment from amuse studio.

Quick and easy treat. 

July 4th nuggets

I saw something similar to this on Pinterest so I thought I could create my own version.

I used washi tape to cover the nuggets and then added a few punched stars for a topper.

So cute for your upcoming 4th of July party!

card class

Yesterday we had a awesome card class and mini sampler at Sylvia's!

The cards were so easy to create using pattern cardstock. These cards were made using retired card stock and Sylvia gave each of us a treat bag full of extra cardstock...thank you Sylvia!

Along with the 5 beautiful cards above, we made this gorgeous 9 x 9 sampler using the same cardstock. It was so much fun and so easy to put together. Thanks again, Sylvia...you are awesome!

Summer Sampler

Last night we had our craft club to make our summer sampler. 

As always we have some eats and sweets! 

Look at these fun napkins I found in the dollar bin at Target. 

They were perfect for the gals making their summer sampler.

Here we are all set up and ready to go. 

We had a couple gals miss due to prior commitments but we still had a blast with just the few of us. Sorry to Colleen for getting stuck in a traffic back up and could not get here.

This is our summer sampler. 

It was so much fun to create. 

Casey is here showing off her sampler...she was like "ta da...see what you missed!"

Casey and Regina did a fantastic job on their summer sampler.

 It was a lot of work but they loved it.

Great job ladies! 

So sorry to have missed Shari, Karen, and Colleen.

We will see you next time...happy summer!

The birthday girl!

It is Shari's birthday today!

(sign was from Melissa)

We celebrated over the weekend because Dennis and Ruth were in town.

It was a fun afternoon with cake and ice cream, and family!

I found this box at JoAnn Fabrics and used my Silouette to do the lettering on the barn.

It turned out awesome...perfect for my sister!

Hope you enjoy your special day!

Most of us went to Larosas on Sunday for some good pizza!!

Alison and Emily visited on Saturday but missed out on a family favorite!
