Hello

Here's an elegant card using a wonderful kit from Simple Stories.  Just saying hello today, it's the end of April now.  WOW, just one more month of school, actually, given the date, less than a month now.  Who can believe that?  (Believe me, every teacher in my school, lol!)

Coffee Day

  "Nothing stands between a girl and her coffee"  HA! How true is that?  I got this cute coffee theme stamp from Limited Runs and the sentiment comes from RubberNecker.  I thought monday was a perfect day for a coffee theme card this week. I can't believe we are at the end of April now.  WOW just four more days until May.

For the DH


 Here's a sweet love theme card, XO for my dear hubby (DH) that i will be leaving in just a month.  I swear he's probably the only reason I come back from Turkiye.  Well, it might take me longer than 2 month before I'd be ready to come back if it wasn't for the DH.  My VISA only give me 90 days, plus come winter it gets colder there and I really wouldn't like that.

You make life sweet

Here's a cute card I made using some papers from Simple Stories.  They were on sale during the convention at a booth whom I took a class.  I got a coupon for $5 extra free goodies from the booth so I chose some wonderful papers and stickers to make cards with.  You'll be seeing a bunch of them over the summer. I also won a larger door prize from the Brad/Eyelet Outlet company, that's where I got the cute little green dots.

Cultivate a thankful heart

Happy Monday! Just 6 weeks of school left to go.  I am sharing a great project today from the convention in Irving this spring.  We were given a set of papers to create a 12x12 layout from Faith Illustrated. But I didn't want to do a scrapbook page.  I just rarely scrapbook anymore.  I chose to take the papers they gave us and cut them up and create 6 6x6" cards!  here's one of them:

It says, "Cultivate a thankful heart."  I really love this acorn paper.
