Easter Parade

My friend Jen Timko has been the featured stamper at Splitcoast this week. Her gallery is wonderful - I think of her as a fabulous "simply stylish" designer!  The challenge is to CASE a card from her gallery. I chose this card and changed the fall leaves to Easter Eggs so that the card could join in Mary Fish's Easter Parade today.  Have a bright and sunny Easter - hope you have time for some eye candy!     Check out Jen's gallery here and Mary's Easter parade here!

Long Time No See! FMS79

The Spec-tacular set of spectacles and the new Designer Typeset alphabet are combined here to make a funky card for a long lost friend.  I admit I make some cards just because they make me smile - and yep this is one of them!  Join us at Freshly Made Sketches this week and make a card that makes you smile!

     Rita's sketch this week is just a sight for sore eyes :)                                      

Enjoy the Ride! PPA155

I love this image but I never had a bike like this - nor can I ever imagine riding one!  When I was young the elderly lady next door had a bicycle built for two. It was a fabulous bicycle with big balloon tires and comfy seats.  Since my dad helped take care of her property he was "allowed" to take it for a spin any time he wanted to.  I loved riding on that bike - and I got very good at showing up in the garage with some iced tea just as he was putting away the lawnmower........which was parked right next to the bike......so as long as we are both here we might as well go for a ride - right Dad?


                              Hope you take the sketch at Pals Paper Arts for a spin this week!
                                                       

Welcome Sweet Baby! FMS78

My daughter works with some amazingly talented and creative ladies.  There are hand made quilts, sweaters, toys and dresses in Emma's room from some very crafty friends.  And who can forget the deviled eggs made into tiny baby carriages at Erin's baby shower? We are talking seriously talented people!

This card is headed to Erin's boss who just became the grandmother of a sweet baby boy this week.  She made Emma a dress out of material flown in from Switzerland - it is gorgeous!  Well a hand made card with material flown in from Salt Lake City is about as crafty as I can get......but it is heartfelt just the same!

The ladies at Freshly Made Sketches are amazingly talented and creative as well - including Jen Mitchell who designed our wonderful sketch this week!
