Happy BEE-Day

Today is the first day of school for my kids! I know, one day and then off for the weekend. Who makes this schedule anyway! lol! Oh well, my son wanted to ride the bus to school this morning so he got up with the Chickens to do so and my daughter still wants a ride. 

Today i've chosen to use another Pickled Potpourri digital image. If you saw yesterdays, it was a humorous card also using a Pickled Potpourri image.

Terrific Tuesday with a Black kitty

Hi everyone! Today is Tuesday! Yesterday the humidity came back with a bang and i was so hot at work.  We spend the majority of our time outside playing.

France for a Friend

I received a phone call the other day from a Friend who needed a card specially made for her brother who is moving to France for a year, so i had to put on my thinking cap and come up with something special.  I decided to use a "Vintage" look to this card. It is a Le Eifel Tower shaker box card using Stampendous "Fragments" as the shaker part.
