With Gratitude

I have been on a patterned paper kick lately. I bought this particular paper well over two years ago and then hoarded it because I loved it so. Now its time to use it up! Today we have mat stack 3 (PTI) stamped with colorbox lime pastel using a stamp from All Booked Up. Inside the mat die I have an image from Round and Round. I double inked the bird to get the color variation. I used a sentiment from Round and Round as well. Its stamped in versamagic turquoise gem. The base is made from Simply Chartreuse cardstock and is tied with Hawaiian shores ribbon. Thanks for stopping by!

Sunflower Birthday

Hey there! Happy Thursday! Today I have a little birthday card for you. The focal image is from PTI's Round and Round Anniversary set. The sentiment is from Giga Guidelines. The background is the new Argyle set. I stamped the background with lemon tart and chocolate. Sentiment is also in chocolate. Focal point is in spring moss and summer sunrise. There a bit of bitty boxes ripe avocado on the bottom. Two little dark chocolate buttons make up the center of the flowers. Everything below this is just random stuff so if you are just here for the card you might not want to read the rest...
I was scanning photos last night to share on Facebook. I love old photos, old letters, old anything... I have boxes full. Anyway I found one of my first pictures of me and my hubby....This was in my dorm room in 1993. We got married in 1995. I think I was 20 in this picture. I still have that shirt and I dont think it would go over my head anymore! LOL! And here we are now:
This is at his sister's wedding last December. Funny how you look a little different after 17 years!
