Happy Bee-day!

I love the simple sketch at Cas(e) this Sketch this week and decided to make a Bee My Valentine card......and somehow I ended up with a Happy Bee-day card.  I just couldn't make the hearts and bees work together!  But Happy Valentine's Day anyway!

Since it was a retro sketch I pulled out a retired  hostess set called Pun Intended!

Ready, Set, Snow......FMS375

 

There is an awful lot of white stuff in the air and on the ground these days so I probably shouldn't ask for more!  As I type this it is night and so quiet outside - the snow is still falling - not a car on the street!  I love that wintry quiet!

Cecile's sketch is fun!  I used the tree and the bunny as my triangular shapes but feelfree to put your own spin on it~!  Join us at Freshly Made Sketches!

Sometimes after an exhausting photo shoot.......

you just need to take a break.............

And I am thinking the photographer probably needed something other than coffee or tea in his cup after wrangling my grandpups......ADK, Silas, Cordy and Bogey!

I love the inspiration at Fusion this week. I let that beautiful floral paper be the star and used a simple teacup in the center square.  Use the photo or sketch or both as inspiration- hope you join us!

Make A Wish.....FMS374

Not dandelion season around here - just trying to get my 2019 birthday card stash built up! I love the bold sentiments from the new set Life Is Grand! 

After major snowfalls and crazy Arctic cold we had a beautiful sunny Super Bowl weekend so we spent some time at the lake.  Well we did have to snowblow a path down to the shore....

But it was so worth it for the view......

So many possibilities with Jen Brum's wonderful sketch this week at Freshly Made Sketches!  Our Design Time has made some amazing cards this week - have fun with those circles - we did!
