New Cards




I was a busy beaver tonight. I guess after the day I had I needed a stress break. One of the teachers I teach with passed her Praxis test which is a major accomplishment so I made her a card with Changito, than one of the neighbors behind us father's died this past week so I wanted to make her a card to let her know we are thinking of her. I used a flufles the cat stamp because my mom's cat is always looking out the window at her great flowers. I hope both of these cards will put smiles on their faces. I know they did while I was making them.




Good Night all.

Grandma's Birthday


My grandma turns 97 this year and I wanted to make her something special. She has always loved flowers and had a nice flower garden while I was growing up. She also loved to sew. She even made my wedding dress which was actually one of the last things she sewed. Now, she lives in a nursing home and doesn't really talk anymore. I miss the time we use to spend together and I hold on to those memories I have. I hope this card puts a smile on her face tomorrow when my mother and husband take it to her.


Have a good evening.
