Gone Fishin'

I love that Jake loves fishing with his dad and uncles when we visit the family. Jake caught a TON of fish last time we were there. He had a blast!! I tried to really capture his joy and the sheer volume of fish he caught that day for future conversations of that fun memory. How did I do? :-) (this is when I love my cricut the most!)

Enjoy!

Dad's Day Cards

These are my collection of "dad's day" cards that were sent/given this year. My husband and our two dads are great! Hopefully you see a theme here with trees- they offer us deep roots, support, shelter, and strength. We are pretty blessed!

Enjoy!

Button beauty

I am LOVING this combo!! Pure bliss... Everyday button bits stamp set with Spring Vintage buttons from PTI with Lavender Moon cardstock and ribbon- how is it that I've had this forever and never use it??? The paper coordinates beautifully with Berry Sorbet, another underused color from PTI that I have (the other buttons and sentiment). Can't wait to use it more- I'm thinking some beautiful stationery is in my future!!

Enjoy!

Anniversary Card

I made this card for my longtime friend's anniversary. This was actually my 3rd attempt at her card. I had to be just right! I am so glad this one came together and was perfect! It looked exactly like it did in my head (and maybe even a little better). Such a pretty color combo I even wrote it down in my notebook for future use :-)

Enjoy!

Best of Friends like Family

This is a layout from January 2009. Can't believe it took this long to scrap it, but I was always so hung up on how I wanted it to look. Everytime I sat down with the pictures nothing seemed right. Glad it is finally in my scrapbook ready to be looked at and enjoyed!

Enjoy!

Teacher cards

These are the cards I made for the other "specialty" teachers for my son. See if you can figure out who each card was meant for and I'll tell you who at the bottom. These had to be clean and simple because these were all done while under a lot of stress going on at home. But, I actually loved how they came out and thought my idea was really clever in the end.

Enjoy!

The top cards are for PE teacher and Art.
The next two are for Spanish and Computer (think "Apple" haha).
The last was for Music (I couldn't find a music note, because they really sing at this age, but it was close enough??).

Teacher Notecards

I wanted Jake's "main" teacher to have some special notecards all to herself. I made eight cards total, included envelopes, and a pen to match, put it all in a clear box and then some extra goodies to say "thanks" for being such an awesome kindergarten teacher!

Enjoy!
