You Colour My World

Hey everyone!

I have a quick post tonight before my next teaser.  I couldn't help but share this cutie card I made.  I absolutely love this PI release from last month.  I paired it with a yummy new scallop ribbon die-namic released this month through MFT.  I loved this patterned paper because it gave me so many options to paper piece and to contrast varying patterns.

Parenting...

Hey Everyone!  Today I have the privileged of showing you a card using Clearly Sentimental About Parenting.  It was released in March and I had a chance to make a card using the set.  One of the most magnificent experiences in my life is being a mum.  The job is ongoing, challenging, rewarding...it makes you smile, it makes you cry...you are a nurse, a doctor, a teacher, an officer of the peace...and yet I wouldn't change a day of the experience.  Today's card is dedicated to all the parents out there.

Grad Girl

Hello everyone.  Happy Good Friday, Happy Earth Day, and Happy Birthday to two of my dear friends Ellen and Tracey!!

There is so much to celebrate today so I figured I would share a celebration card with you for a graduate.  A la modes are some of my favourite stamps from My Favorite Things.  I think what I love most about this image other than the happy grin is that HUGE diploma all scrolled up.  Honestly, when you graduate that paper seems THAT big.  Maybe because it's an amazing accomplishment.

 As you may well know, I have a fondness for anything PI!!  I just LOVE this collection.  The images are so sweet so you can imagine how my heart pounded when I received the latest collection of images.  As a teacher there is nothing more exciting than seeing my students graduate from school.  It's a proud moment.  I am glad that my own kids are still years from graduation however I do know the day will arrive sooner than later.  Today I had the pleasure of creating a card using Graduation Boy from the Pure Innocence collection by MFT.
