Happy Sunday

Well the weekend is almost over and I tend to get a little down in the dumps about that. But we had a wonderful weekend so I can't complain. I got so much crafting done that I will be sharing over the next couple of days.

Today I want to share a project with you that I made. I love these little memo pads I've found at the dollar store. So I've covered another one using an image from The Stamping Boutique.

I just love this color combination. Who would think that Teal and Lavender look so good together but I really like it.

Take care.

Season of Love

The season of Love is coming. Every store has got huge displays of Valentine's Day goodies. I believe you should show your love every day not just on Valentine's.

Take care and go show your loved ones some love.

Doing the Happy Dance

Yes, I am doing the happy dance today. Can you see me? It's the weekend and school opens back up on Monday. I am a very happy Momma!

I wanted to share a card today using A Day For Daisies image. This is such a sweet little image and reminds me of those childhood games we used to play. A friend and I were talking the other day about games we used to play as a child; hopscotch, king of the mountain, stick ball (if you grew up in the city like I did), double dutch. My daughter just looked at us like we were speaking another language. They have no idea how to play outside. TV, MP3's and video games are her constant friends. Sad, just sad.


Oh, well, they don't know what they are missing.

Take care.
