Sending Smiles

 Good Afternoon & Happy Sunday!

We got Kelsey & Shady all moved into their new apartment yesterday!

We are pooped and not really doing much today. We ran out for some groceries then stopped and picked up Shady to hang out with us for the day. His mama is working a double shift today and I did not want him in his new apartment all day by himself. We will return him later this evening that way when she gets home from work he will be there. Her new apartment looks nice and is it ever roomy for a 1 bedroom. I really like it!

So, today I am sharing a set of cards I made up without a sentiment on it.

I can always add a saying or these can be for Audrey since she likes the cards without sayings.

I pulled out my Sending Smiles bundle and got to work.

I wanted to use this Design A Daydream DSP that is retired and I thought the flowers looked almost like the Sending Smiles flowers. They are pretty similar.

Card Details:

Stamps: Sending Smiles

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Old Olive, Blackberry Bliss

Cardstock: Daffodil Delight, Basic White, Old Olive, Design A Daydream DSP (retired)

Accessories: Decorative Circle Punch, Stylish Shapes Dies, Sending Dies, Tasteful Textile 3D EF (retired), Brushed Brass Butterflies, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I packaged these up with envelopes and put inside a cello bag and on to the card rack.

I know the Tasteful Textile 3D EF is retired but I have a hard time putting it away. I like the texture is adds to a card without being bold. It is my absolute favorite and so far I have not found another one to take it's place.

My thoughts today...

After the last 3 days of moving Kelsey....I feel just like this seal.

It may take me 3 days to get back to normal. LOL

Thanks for stopping by & stay cool!

Another hot & humid day is on tap...

 Hello & Happy Tuesday!

I hope your week is going well so far!

I had my dentist appointment yesterday morning and was fitted for a new crown.

For the next 3 weeks I have a temporary crown on and have to be very careful not to chew gum or eat anything sticky that could pull it out. My gums around that back tooth are super sore and achy. I am doing Advil and salt water washes to help heal it. I go back for my new crown in 3 weeks. Today Shawn goes for the same exact thing!

Once I got in from the dentist yesterday I had a call from my card lady!

I was so happy to hear from her!

Her 1st cancer treatment is the books. She said the next day after her treatment was not so good but each day after she is feeling better. She sounded upbeat and was very talkative so that is a good sign! She even gave me a nice sized card order, too!

The card I am sharing today was made and sent to her 2 weeks ago.

It used the Sending Smiles bundle from the 2022-2023 Stampin Up Annual Catalog.

It's a wonderful set loaded with really nice sayings!

Card Details:

Stamps: Sending Smiles

Ink: Daffodil Delight, Rich Razzleberry

Cardstock: Rich Razzleberry, So Saffron, Basic White, Petal Pink, Design A Daydream DSP (hostess)

Accessories: Sending Dies, Fern 3D EF, Stitched Rectangle Framelits, Rhinestones, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I love this card and so did she!

I think I am going to enjoy showering her with lots of cards and I really hope they lift her spirits as well! She's such a special person and means alot to me!

 Good Morning & Happy Fri-YAY!

The weekend is here! Do you have any fun plans?

No plans here other than a quick trip out this evening to get a new pair of sneakers.

I know, real exciting! LOL

It's to be cloudy with off & on showers all weekend so maybe we will get the bikes out at some point. We've already rode bikes in the rain, just have to make sure we aren't getting any storms!

Today my card is a pretty one using a new stamp set from the new 2022-2023 Stampin Up! Annual Catalog. It also uses some new In Colors...

The colors are from the new 2022-2024 In Colors, Orchid Oasis and Parakeet Party.

The stamp set is the Sending Smiles set with it's coordinating Sending Dies.

Card Details:

Stamps: Sending Smiles

Ink: Orchid Oasis, Parakeet Party

Cardstock: Orchid Oasis, Basic White, Vellum, In Color DSP

Accessories: Sending Dies, Scalloped Contour Dies, In Color Enamel Dots, Mini Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Aren't those colors pretty together?!

They sure are bright, fresh & very fun and perfect for some summer time projects!
