I've been on vacation...

Me and my sweetie were on a cruise to the Bahamas. We had a great time.

I have some card I made with some new SU sets, I will try to get those posted later this week.

Happy 21st Birthday Zach!!!

Me and my son Zach

Daughter Jenni & Zach

My son Zach turned 21 today. We we celebrated by going out to eat with all our kids (Jenni, Cody, Zach & Meg) and their families. It was a fun night!

Cards for a Cause #4

This is the last "Card for A Cause Challenge" over at PunkyDoodle Papers Blog. This was to be a "thinking of you" card. Lesa gave us some inspiration with some pictures she took after an ice storm in 2007. I thought the trees from SU set "Lovely as a Tree" were a picture replication (once I embossed them with silver embossing powder). I stamped the wording on vellum and embossed it as well, and added some shear silver ribbon.

Cards for a Cause #3

Challenge #3 at Lesa's blog...Punkdoodle Papers was to make a get well card for a child. Lesa will be delivering the cards to a children's hospital.

SU cardstock, paper, brads, punches, and stamps

Upward

Our grandson Joseph is playing in an Upward basketball league, so that is where I was this Saturday morning. We had a fun time watching him play.

Jenni (our daughter) said what happened that we are here watching Joseph play basketball? It seems like just yesterday that he was a baby. I told her that time just goes by to fast, it seem like just yesterday that she was my little baby.
Miss Jaden was also there and this is what her tongue looked like after a whole pack of Skittles....

Cards for a Cause #2

At Punkydoodles Papers (blog), the challenge this week was to make a birthday card for a child. The card will be sent to a children's shelter.
I made my card with the Stampin Up set Birthday Bunnies (love it).

SU cardstock, watercolor pencils, blender pen, ribbon and silver cord, and Hero Art gems
