There's no tie

It's Sunday evening and I forced myself to finally make these 2, beyond simple, little cards that I have been thinking of all week. Does that tell you what my week was like!...crazy! Only 4 1/2 more days of school left and then my life will be a little more relaxed! I love the summer time and am super excited to have more free time!! :) {cuz that means a little more therapy time for me} I just grabbed some scrap ribbons I had in my ribbon container and tied them around the cardstock...that's it...sooo easy! I added the cute sentiment, it's from the Taylored Expression set Boys Will Be Boys. Have a great night and a fantastic week!! Thanks!!

a dad's toolbelt

No...you aren't seeing things...it really is me posting! I am telling ya...end of the school year keeps a girl busy! I have not had any time to do any stamping! This afternoon I forced myself to sit down and make a card with the image I stamped a few days ago. I stamped this toolbelt and then let it sit cuz I didn't know what to do with it after that! Is this not the cutest/coolest toolbelt! I ordered this set 'Boys Will Be Boys' from Taylored Expressions late Friday night and it was in my mailbox Tuesday! This by far one of the cutest and best Father's Day sets I have ever seen!!! :) I can't wait to ink up more of the images!!! Have a fabulous weekend! I would love to say check back soon...but let's face it girls! It's not gonna happen till school is out! 4 1/2 more days...yippee!

Love Birds

Hi all....I haven't gotten lost! I have just had a lot going on...which means my blogging is always what gets pushed to the bottom of the to do list. I hurt my back about 2 weeks ago and it kept me from doing anything for a week. I was confined to my black recliner and was bored to tears! I was on some medications...so I wasn't quite myself. I am feeling much, much better now though!! Also I have been working on some very special gifts for Tyson and Kyler's teachers for an end of the year 'Thank You' and' We Will Miss You'! I can't wait to be able to show you!!...just a few more weeks! Thanks for not giving up on me!! :)
I made these as invitations for a 25th wedding anniversary party a friend I threw for some other good friends! I wanted something really simple that just conveyed the message of "still in love after all these years". I think this did it! You can kinda see the inside. Since I used a white base I decided to dress up the inside a little. I printed the party info on baja breeze and added some hearts to the corners of the invite. I colored my birds with my blender pens. I love doing simple!!
Thanks for checking in! chat at ya later....Have a wonderful day!!

paper...whisper white, baja breeze
