Flower Shop take 2

 ooo been too long that I got a chance to sneak down and play w/ my stamps! When summer begins and kidos are here and vacations begin...my stamp room door pretty much stayed closed ...but after vacation I had sooo many people that needed gifts/cards/notes of encouragement/birthday cards and my stash quickly became depleted!! These two were mailed off yesterday to 2 neat ladies.. a momma to be of 5 and a breast cancer warrior....
i hope this brightens their days and makes them smile....

baby thank yous

Hope you have all had a wonderful 4th of July weekend! We are on the road for a wedding in IN...we've had beautiful warm days and spent all day of the 4th by our outdoor pool here @ the hotel. Kids enjoyed very much....I enjoyed my chair and magazine...water was FRIGID!!! ;) Then we made it to Noblesville to watch the firework show! Suburb of Indianapolis. Nothing quite as American as watching a good fire show on the 4th... a man near us said and I couldn't agree w/ him more!! This is the kidos on the way home after the show!

paper: naturals ivory, dsp, lucky limeade

thoughts & prayers

 Summer is a fun and exciting time for so many families! When the children are home 24.7 I have little time to 'play' in my stamp room and when I do then no time to blog about it! But now I'm on a little vacation and while my little man naps in the hotel I can sit next to him here on the bed and do just that!

I love this card and how it came together. I seen something similar online I believe but have no idea where...proly Pinterest!! This is my version...
supplies:
paper: island indigo, Baja breeze, whisper white, dsp
ink: island indigo
tools: big shot, fancy fan folder
accessories: vintage brads, pearls, ribbons
