Language of Friendship

Yesterday I had a great time for a long chat with my BFF!  We don't live by each other any more and most often our conversations are quick snatches on our way home at night or text messages.  It was so nice to talk to her.   Looking forward to some fun together soon!

This is my Challenge Card for our ABC Challenge #29 this
week - Stamped Backgrounds. I'm not sure why but I just could not decide on what stamps to use.   I struggled to come up with a stamped background I liked.  I finally settled on the SU! Canvas background stamp and added some flowers from the Language of Friendship set. I chose the colors from this week's SCS Color Challenge - Certainly Celery, Regal Rose and Bermuda Bay.  I think I used Cool Caribbean for the blue shade though ...

I hope you have a good week,  thanks for stopping by.  Be sure to come and play at ABC Card Challenge this week!

Supplies:  SU Cardstock Regal Rose, Kraft,  SU Stamps Language of Friendship,  SU Ink Regal Rose, Certainly Celery, Chocolate Chip, Cool Caribbean,  SU Organdy ribbon,  SU Bird Punch ,  SU Top Note Die

Wow ... Happy 25


This week was a fun week.  We spent it on Vacation with our family at Disney and the Beach.   It was also our 25th Wedding Anniversary and I made this card for my DH.   It was really fun colors from the new CTMH DreamPop (May) Specialty paper.   The card was CASE'd from a fun card I saw on the CTMH DreamPop Blog Hop.   My DH Loved it. 

This week at ABC Challenge Blog Card challenge is to make a Wedding or Anniversary Card.  It was perfect timing, just perfect for DH.   I hope you will come and play!

Supplies:  CTMH Dream Pop,  CTMH Stamps Word Bubbles, CTMH Ink Slate,  Misc Glitter Ribbon, CTMH Twine, CTMH Sparkles

Toe. Come and Enjoy the fun. 

I love being able to "schedule" my blog posts because this week I'm - ON VACATION - with my family and lovin' every minute of it.    We're spending a couple weeks in Florida enjoying sun and fun as a familly.  My boys just finished another year of college and it was time to celebrate as family.   I realize these times will be fewer and farther in between.
