Sympathy Card

Hello all hope you all had a great 4th we had a pretty good day. We really did not do much ourselves, we went to our local Denton fire work show, ANNUAL KIWANIS FIREWORKS SHOW . They put on a great fire work show, the music this year for the show was great. Played some great 80's music like Def Leppard and Journey, I am dating myself right now but that is okay...lol Anyway here is a picture I snapped maybe one day I can afford a DSLR and shot real photos instead of this point and shot camera I use....lol

So anyways before I head out I just wanted to share a card I made for a dear family friend who lost her mom. I am always stumped when doing cards like this I never know what to say inside the cards. Its a pretty simple easy card..

I used the Cindy Loo cricut cart had been wanting to use some of these flowers on this cart and thought prefect time. So supplies will be listed below, thanks for stopping by and looking :)

Fun things coming up!

Hello everyone hope you had a great weekend and a wonderful start to the week. For many this last Monday was the first day of school here where we are it was. My nephew started his senior year of school this Monday. I am so excited but at the same time sad. He will be leaving home soon and wont get to see him as much. This year for his graduation I would like to complete an album for him from a baby to the present time of the young man he has become. So I plan to start working on getting it together this year and work on it little by little. What he dont know I have been secretly getting pictures of him from the school news letter from his school for a while...lol Whole reason I had been doing it so I could use in a album. So that is goal this year.
And I will finally have LO's to post I know I make alot of cards...lol Even I get tired of me and the fact all I make is cards. Just cards are so fast I can make a card so much faster verses a LO I get really slow on those. But I will say I do have something to share this week that will help me in getting to my goal of more LO's. I will be posting about that at the end of the week or weekend. If you dont follow me make sure you keep a look out over the rest of the week. I have something special coming up that I have been so excited about. I have been sitting on it cause I did not want to spill the beans till I ready. But I will say I have been wanting to do this for the followers for awhile. All I am going to say....lol

Now time for yes another card....lol I really did need this one though. My aunt had shoulder surgery a few days ago and in 4 weeks she has the other one done. So she will be out of work for 2 months, each shoulder needs 4 weeks to heal. So I did not make a get well card yet since she has yet another surgery to go but I wanted a thinking of you card so she knows we are thinking of her. So TFL and make sure you keep checkingg back for something specail...lol WINK!

I love when she says certain colors cause it really challenges you. And what she picked it really fun colors bright and cheerful. I have got to where I use more bright colors cause of her, I used to use alot of pastels. So  I used the Cindy Loo cart for this card I just loved this little fellow.

Birthday card

Hi I am so sorry I have been MIA for so long on craft projects. I know I lost a few followers and I get it, my post have gone down. Where have I been? Trying to get our home back in order, seems like the more you have the more time it consumes. And after our move last year I put off alot of boxes and home projects cause I was tired and needed a break. So I have been trying to work on getting that done. Please bare with me if I dont post a project one week. I will in future post if I wont be able to make a post that week to let you know. Anyway we had a productive weekend here till Sunday night at lest. We mowed and cleaned up the front entry amazing how much dirt collects there. And I picked up some junk in the back yard. Then I clean our shed some and that is where the end of the weekend took a turn. As I was coming out I missed my step and started falling since I my hands where full I could not catch myself. So I finally let go of the stuff cause what was coming was a cinder block I was about to fall on head first. That would have hurt, so I was able to miss it but I still hit the cinder block with my chest area. If you girls know what I mean. My that hurts so much, one of the girls is bruised up now. I scraped up and banged up my arm and leg, leg will have pretty good bruise on it for sure. But I am lucky I missed falling face first on the cinder block.  My wrist took the brunt of the fall but seems okay. It hurts a tiny bit if I put a bunch of body weight on it but no breaks just a little bruises. So that was my weekend. Anyway today I made my SIL a card her birthday will be coming up in a few days so thought I would share it with you. I used the new cart I just got cindy loo. Thanks for looking and I hope you can bare with me if I dont post a ton like I was. This week should be better cause I got alot done last week.
