You may think you are seeing double because I seemed to have hit POST two days too early and out this post went on Tuesday!  Well my greeny inked card is appropriate for today because I am green with envy of everyone with mad computer skills.....and speedy computers!  I need an updated computer and don't know where to begin to buy one! My iPad is efficient and oh so handy but it doesn't like Blogger so I need to fire up the computer for blogging.  Honest I would rather be creating than computing so I chug along with this ancient computer to blog.......but it is not as fast as it used to be......I can relate......

I pulled the yellow and green from the inspiration photo and used the sketch to design my card this week at Fusion.  Use what inspires you and play along with us!  We would love to see your work in our gallery at Fusion!

So Much Love....FMS419

Ahh.......love is in the air already as we head toward Valentine's Day.  Where I live there are a lot of snowflakes in the air too.  But the cold wintry days did not stop us from celebrating Will's first birthday.  The party was at Emma's house and we all had a grand time.  Will's favorite part of the party was definitely the balloons!

And somehow he grabbed Auntie Erin's cell phone just right and took his own selfie!  Those kiddos start early with cell phones these days!

We definitely had a lot of fun!

Hope you have fun with LeeAnn's sketch this week!  Join us at Freshly Made Sketches!

Stamp Review Crew: Broadway Birthday

The Stamp Review Crew is starting the year off featuring Broadway Birthday!  I love how the new Birthday Bonanza DSP has a balloon pattern that matches the stamped balloons from this set so I used it as my background. This stamp set is one that goes onto my keep forever shelf.  The images, sentiments and the diecuts are perfect for all kinds of celebrations.  Continue through our hop for more ideas!


Mary Haugen is next with another wonderful creation!

If you missed Holly's wonderful work head back to check it out!

   I flipped the sketch from Fab Friday sideways to accommodate the balloons.
