Notecards & Envelopes

Hello & Happy Monday!

Today is August 1st! The time is really passing by!

I am trying to get caught up from our recent anniversary get away!

It was so relaxing & peaceful but I guess now it's time to get back to some kind of normal. 

Vacations have a way of spoiling us, don't they?!

So, today's project is some Thank You cards for those who also spoiled us with anniversary gifts. Our friends knew we were going away so I thought I would continue using the Maryland Blue Crab for a note of Thanks!

Here they are:

The notecards & envelopes are from Stampin Up and make a nice Thank You note to send. I love the crab on these! The "Thank You" sentiment is from a retired Best of Greetings stamp set and I added a few small rhinestones for some sparkle.

I took these along on my get away to fill out and I completely forgot about them.

I know, shame on me!

Never!

That's all for today!

Lots of housework awaits today!

Thanks for stopping by & have a wonderful day!

The Maryland Blue Crab

Hello & Happy Sunday!

Hope everyone had a fun filled weekend!

We surely did!

We were in Maryland celebrating our anniversary!
After 26 years with this man he surprised me with a long weekend get away which was definitely MUCH NEEDED! We stayed right on the water and spent most our evenings watching sunsets & the boats coming & going. It was super relaxing and just what the doctor ordered! I can't tell you just how nice it was to get away and enjoy some downtime with Shawn although the mosquito's were bad and of course bit the daylights out of me, I still had a fabulous time! 

I knew a few days ahead of time that we were going away and once I seen the photo's of where we were going I spied this picture hanging on a wall in the studio apartment. I was inspired by that photo to create a Thank You card for the owners. 

Here is the picture and my photo of the card....

I was tickled to pieces that my card looked just like the picture and can you believe that I left without letting my card there! It will be sent out in the mail tomorrow.

Thank You Card:

Stamps: By The Seashore (retired), inside sentiment from Amuse

Ink: Versamark, Night of Navy

Cardstock: Thick Whisper White, Night of Navy, Whisper White

Accessories: Winter White EP, Heat Gun, 2 Sided Tape

The apartment we stayed in was all done in a nautical theme thru out the bedroom, living room, kitchen & bathroom. Everything was super nice except I could have done without the bug bites! We had 2 docks to fish/crab off of, a pool to use and another day it stormed so we just kinda toured the area and went out for a fish & chips supper at a local place that came highly recommended. Another day we went to Ocean City for the afternoon and of course we had to get some Thrasher's French Fries, a funnel cake and some Fisher's Popcorn for the return trip back to PA. We totally blew our dieting out of the water but it was a fun time!

Our view in the evenings...

These are pictures of the Bay Bridge that goes over the Chesapeake Bay. I have never gone across this bridge much less seen it in person and all I could say is "WOW"! Shawn was a nervous wreck going across it because he does not like heights.

The view of the marina across the water from us was so pretty & peaceful.

 I told Shawn this was the highlight of my trip!

This was a metal figure that was on one of the dock posts. I thought it was pretty cool!

And that's a few pictures of our anniversary get away!

It was amazing, fun & just perfect....just like my Buppie!
