Congrats




My niece just got a promotion at work so I made this card for
her.  Very proud of her but sad that she is moving to another state, 
luckily within driving distance.

I used Unity Mila Girl and  and the Congrats is part of a sentiment
strip from Taylored Expressions. Colored with Copics, pattered paper 
and stitched die cut from Stampin Up.

Ladybug cards







I have been having so much fun making cards with this sweet ladybug
set from Stampin Up.  The top card is a birthday card for my granddaughter, 
I used temporary adhesive as she likes to remove the images and I thought
she would enjoy rearranging them.  The puzzle I sent to the grandkids last
week along with some other activities.  The last set of cards were sent 
to friends to brighten their day.

I  hope all of you are staying healthy in this unusual time.

 This week is a darling spring  photo inspiration from Wendy at








I was inspired by both the photo and colors.  I started with a stenciled
background using a Dylusions Stencil-Fronds of Foliage in
shades of gray.  I stamped Repeat Impressions Bird Song
and colored it with Copics.  A die cut  with Stamp In Ups
Layering Oval dies with patterned paper  and punched 
corners to match.
