Bright colors and shelves of children's books make this teacher's heart happy!  Love the inspiration at Fusion this week!  School is out for the summer today - the longest day of the year!  Just perfect for some porch sitting and reading........

Love Ya! FMS 342

I definitely needed a speedy bicycle to get through everything this week......Miss E's last soccer game, dance recital and Kindergarten graduation! Whew is it summer vacation yet?

An ice cream sundae was the perfect way to celebrate Kindergarten graduation!

Emma's dress may have inspired me to use a print from the new Designer Series Paper called Best Route. And that Blueberry Bushel looks great with the pop of Lovely Lipstick!

I love Amy's layered sketch this week!  Join us at Freshly Made Sketches!

Stamp Review Crew: Animal Outing

The Stamp Review Crew is featuring Animal Outing this week!  It is such a cute set that is full of surprises like this koala peeking out of the kangaroo pouch - makes a sweet baby card!  Thought you would like an update on our baby animals.  Emma's pups Cooper and Benny just turned one but are still as wild as can be.  So don't believe everything you see in this angelic picture....

You are right on track if you arrived from seeing Kelly Kent's wonderful work. If you missed it head on back........

Otherwise keep going to see Stesha Bloodhart's fabulous work!

I used the sketch at Global Design Project for my design today.

Sea Sights....FMS341

While I was finishing this ocean-y card the Big Guy called and said it was time to launch the Waverunners.  Who am I to argue with that?  So I headed to the lake at lunchtime and stopped to pick up a pizza. At the restaurant I held the door open for a lady who had difficulty walking and I helped her down the steps as well.  When I came out with the pizza she was almost to her car which was near mine and she called out -

"Thank you young lady for helping me out.  That was very kind of you!'

And I responded "Thanks for calling me young lady!"

She laughed and said, "Oh you are young - just wait until you are my age.....I'm 68!"

Yeow that's my number too!  Sometimes you need a wakeup call to realize how fortunate you are!  So  I have vowed to stop complaining about all my aches and pains and will ride that waverunner as long as I can.........as long as I don't see a real octopus under my vessel!

Narelle has a fun sketch for us this week at Freshly Made Sketches!  Join us!
