Karen and Dan's Wedding Card

My niece Karen was married a week ago. I was in a rush making the card for her and Dan that I did not get a clear picture. But I LOVE it!!

I used Chocolate Chip and Cameo Coral. The sets I used are Teeny Tiny Wishes and French Filigree. The flourish is daubered on using the Vintage Ornaments 1 stencil. I LOVE the option of using stencils on my cards.

Sympathy Floral and Masculine

I have been needing quite a few Sympathy cards and finally got around to making them. I made them all similar and made one batch feminine and another masculine.

This one is made with Greenhouse Garden and French Filigree sets. The colors used are Soft Suede, Dusty Durango and Crushed Curry. I also used the Bigz XL Dies Movers & Shapers and the Magnetic Movers & Shapers. With Sympathy from Teeny Tiny Wishes is stamped on Very Vanilla and punched out with the Modern Label punch. It also uses the polka dot side of the Dusty Durango ribbon.



The same layout is used on these ones. I changed out the set to Autumn Days and the ribbon was flipped over to the solid side.

Some new stuff and a wedding.


I finally had a chance to play with some new stuff yesterday.
I LOVE the new Medallion and French Filigree stamps. Aren't they just gorgeous! Colors here are Chocolate Chip and Bordering Blue. I used the new Modern Label punch and Magnetic Movers and Shapers. The card base is 6x6.

Loving the scooter!!!

Jaclyn went with Jack to the store last night on the scooter. She loved the ride and even stopped to see Grandma and Grandpa Daam. But she does not like the helmet.

Wearing Irelyn out!


Irelyn wanted to watch Mulan and 10 minutes into it this is what she was doing. This was 4pm yesterday. I let her sleep approximately an hour and tried waking her up so we weren't up all night.

She did NOT want to wake up. She is actually sleeping like this.





Elise was riding the horse while Irelyn is sleeping. See her in the background? That horse is loud. Irelyn was one tired little girl!
I kept trying to wake her up. She would say, "Stop calling my name! I don't want to hear you call my name!" She walked into the stamp room and dropped to the floor and kept trying to sleep. All I could envision was being awake most of the night. So after an hour and a half nap, she finally woke up.
