Happy Hydrangeas

      

 Just doin' a bit of catching up after   being such a slacker the past few  weeks. AND..... I'm on a major  purple/hydrangea bender. See what I mean? 

 All of these cards were inspired in some way, shape or form by the DT over at Papertrey Ink!                  

Berry-licious, Part 2

OK, I could not stop at just one....... The Wplus9 stamp set includes all kinds of berries and I wanted to use another color combo. I'm thinking that these look a bit more like blackberries, since I used my PTI Royal Velvet ink.

Berry-licious, Part 1

I was so inspired by the projects created by Laurie and Suzanne that I rushed to order a few items from Wplus9. Not only did the sets/dies arrive in three days, but they stamp like a dream! A win/win situation! 

Coincidentally, my good friend just returned from picking some luscious, beautifully scented strawberries and dropped by with a few quarts for us! Strawberry shortcake anyone??

Papertrey Blog Hop-May 2012

I LOVE this color combination! Although I'm a bit rusty, I am really excited to join in the PTI May Blog Hop! There are so many beautiful cards/ideas...... guess that everyone else was inspired too!

Here's what we've been up to!!

The French Riviera........ more beautiful than a postcard!

Our first college graduate!!

New driver on the road.......... watch out!

     

Prom 2012

Time to get back to mounds of laundry, cooking, and time in the craft cave!!

Mother's Day... el fin

Ok, REALLY- my last few Mother's Day cards. I promise.

There are about a million and one ways to make a beautiful card with the PTI Rosie Posie stamps (and I made lots and lots of flowers and backgrounds), so I'm sure that you'll be seeing more soon! 

Mother's Day- Take #3

These cards are my favorites, so far.  Sometimes I hole up in my craft cave and kinda force the creativity- which usually does not work out so well. However, I was determined to use some of my leftover bits and pieces and made these two cards in about 30 minutes. Really speedy for slow pokey me!
