Laura's Speedy Recovery

Our friend, Laura, is having her knee replaced and I made her this monkey card. I promise not to do any more monkeys! Promise! This is a "All That Scraps" digital stamp It's My Birthday. I had to remove the party hat because I really don't think Laura would appreciate the celebration of it all.

Carolyn's Birthday Cards

Cards are by Lois (top), Vickie (2nd), Mac (3rd), Laura (4th), Marie (5th), Sam (6th), and Alyce (7th).

Monkeys, Monkeys, Monkeys

I love these monkeys from All That Scraps. The top set is called Summertime Fun and the bottom one is It's My Birthday. I used similar papers from My Mind's Eye for them.

I found this Changito stamp at the local stamp store, Creative Quest. It's so darn cute and I hope I did it justice.

Vickie brought this card for a wedding or anniversary. Just so happens that Lois needed a wedding card so she helped her out a lot. I know I'll need this cute card some day for maybe a golden anniversary since I made gold bells.

Marie brought this card using SU Upsy Daisy set. She had cupcakes and cheesecake to make plus bring a card. You go girl! The desserts were great and the card beautiful.

Lois got her Wild Card cartridge and put it to good use. I didn't even know this was on there! That cartridge is awesome. We're going to have a GREAT time with this one.

Carolyn brought this sweet little cupcake card. Speaking of cupcakes, we had some and cheesecake too, to celebrate her birthday. Hope your birthday was great, Carolyn!

Happy Birthday Bro

My brother, Ben, celebrated a very big birthday number today so I made him a special card. My friend, Lois, got me started with this Dustin Pike image that was a free digital image from his website. He has some awesome stuff in his blog and you can check it out at www.dustinpike.blogspot.com. Every Wednesday he gives another freebie digital stamp. Who doesn't like freebies?

Thank you Dustin.

I saw a card similar to this one that another artist did with this Cornish Heritage Farms, Kim Hughes, Happy Trails set and I put my own touches to it. For the most part, I can honestly tell you it was a CASE card. We have a new baby boy in the family so I'm thinking "boy cards".

Carolyn made this card with a man in mind. She sends cards to all her family and friends so occasionally you need a nice masculine one. This is a The Angel Company stamp that hadn't seen much action but we worked it out pretty good. Thanks Carolyn for always bringing us a great card to make.

JoAnne made this beautiful card. She is legally blind but you wouldn't know it except she has to wear goggles for fine work. She quills too and they are awesome. This card can be used for just about anything and is a welcome addition to my "stash".

Sweet Baby

We've been blessed with a new baby and It's A Boy! My niece and nephew had an 8 lb. baby boy named David Jeffery last week. This makes me once again a great aunt or is it grand aunt? Whichever, I'll try to be a good one. Yeah, yeah, this is another one of Regina Easter's digital stamps from her Cutting Cafe. On the inside it says Congrats on Your New Bundle of Joy. Yeah, yeah, it's yet another doily card from Wild Card.
