Happy Spring!

...At least I have to be hopeful - it keeps hopping in and out here.

I had a fun weekend. I went with my daughter in law and her sister to Scrapbook USA in SLC. We've been making a habit of this for a while now, and it's always a fun get-away.
I held the purse strings pretty tight this time, but I did find a few irresistable bargains. As you know, a bargain isn't a bargain unless you actually use the stuff, so I felt duty bound to make something this week...

I found a charming 6x6 pad from SEI, and thought that the papers would make lovely cards for weddings (or mother's day.) Giving it a try here;


Speaking of being absentee for a while... It's been so long since I've made a scrapbook page! I finally did one of my daughter's senior picture, and hubby was so impressed that I had actually done something, that he framed it and hung it on the wall! LOL (Nothing fancy, I know.)


...And while I'm posting pictures - this is just one of those crazy odd things that happen randomly once in a while. Look closely at this towel - can you see anything hidden there?

While I was gathering the laundry, I bent down to pick it up and was stunned to see the image of a girl praying there. So crazy I had to capture it. (Yes, I DO need a life!) ...Just greatful to see me doing some chores, I guess.

LOL, thanks for looking!
Later!

Another Day, Another Project

My oldest grand daughter had a birthday this week, so granny's been busy creating a card just for her.
It's always so much fun creating for my girls, because they get so excited to have a hand made card (it warms granny's heart.)
Arilie is 8 this year - which is a very important birthday around here - she's getting so grown up these days - we've had that "talk" already; "grandma, please don't buy me any more puffy dresses..." *Sigh* ...a sure sign that the baby days are over...
Anyway, I made this card with some Cosmo "Boyfriend" papers, with the help of one of Lucy's fabulous sketches.

It's Friday, Have a great weekend!
