Sketch #44 and a few other cards and things

I'm a bad blogger! I can't believe it's been a week since I posted. There is just so much going on here. I feel like I'm moving in circles sometimes. I've been busy with a card order and a MDay project and then there is all that end of year, let's pack as much as we can, rush to the end of schoolyear stuff. Whew! I'm tired! How bout you?
I'm still trying to collect addresses so that I can send out graduation announcements. That's a big chore. We've had so many friends and family members move and or change their phone numbers. I've resorted to posting bulletins! LOL
I am going to post the pictures of some of my recent projects without the deets. I will edit this later and add them, but if you have any questions before that, feel free to email me.

Here is the collage that I put together for my mom. My sister and her husband made the frame and sent it to me to fill with pictures. She absolutely loved it!


Sorry it's so fuzzy! I tried and tried to get a good picture. In the corner are the words "A Mother's Love". Can you believe that's only about half of her children and grandchildren?

Here are some cards that I've been working on. I got a gift certificate to HL for my birthday and picked up some of those cute "Changito" stamps from Stampendous, and the very pretty "Modesty" stamp from Penny Black. I also picked up "Row Of Cupcakes" from Stamp Happens. Yeah me! I am having so much fun playing with all of them. I also picked up a block of Fabriano watercolor paper. Can you say fabulous? Any who! Here are the cards.

You know that this is Thursday and you know what that means. Sketches by Tamara. This is my card for sketch #44. Pop and over and check out the fantastic job the team has done. As always, we would love for you to play along and would love to see what you've done, so post a comment on Tamara's blog with a link to your card.

This is a 3x3 card and went together in less than tem minutes. The cutting took the longest! I hope you enjoy everything! Sorry this is such a long post, but that's what happens when I haven't posted for a while.

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by! TTFN

Love all of your fun new projects!! I went to the store the other day and ALMOST picked up those adorable little Changito stamps! I picked up a set of Penny Black stamps instead, but now I'm going to have to go get those adorable little monkeys!
