Welcome to your New Home

Hello everyone. I hope everyones week is going fine. After the weekend we had, I am enjoying the grey skies. The whole weekend was either freezing rain or snow. Not just one go round of each but multiple. I can not wait for winter to be over.

The other day I whipped up a 'new home' card before heading into work. A co-worker has just moved into a new apartment. I wanted her to know I was thinking of her on her big moving adventure.

I found the black letters in my stash, and adheared them to my card. The house was stamped right onto the card and colored with prisma color pencils. I used a white gel pen to add to the letters and house, and scattered a few sequins.

She was so touched by the card. Made me feel good to put a smile on her face. We  will have coffee next week, so I can see her new place.

happy crafting

March Break almost over

March Break is almost over.  It's been a good week home with the kids.  Wednesday DH started holidays with us, and we were off to Lindsay to visit his mom.  We took her out to lunch, a little visit with her in her room, and then a trip to Barrie to do some shopping.  A trip to Michaels, although they have such a large selection of everything, when I'm in there I never now what to buy.  But did come out with a few new items.  Two were new stamp sets, dog and cat.
On my first two cards the foot prints are stamped and embossed in brown.  I'm using up some of my Basic Grey paper sets.  I did a dog and cat.

These two cards were done for Card Patterns-Sketch #106.

Here is the sketch.

This one I made for a new family that has moved into a new home close to us.  They moved up here from the city at Christmas.    They have two kids, a daughter in my daughters class, and a son that is in my sons class. 
This card is for Sentimental Sundays-Go Green
and CCM Spotlight-Make your own designer paper.
May paper is a background stamp embossed with green, and inked with pink and yellow distress ink.

have a great weekend.
happy crafting;o)
