Sending Sunny Thoughts

 Good Morning & Happy Fri-YAY!

Do you have any fun plans this weekend? 
I am having my friends over tomorrow to make some cards! I'm excited to see them as it's been since April. I have everything all set up and ready to go!

Have you heard about the smoke overtaking the east coast from the wildfires in Quebec, Canada? The last few days we've hardly had any sunshine....it's been covered by the heavy smoke. Yesterday was the worst and the York County Emergency System suggested that everyone stay indoors if possible. Today they are calling for rain showers here so I pray that it helps clear the air & sky!

My friend that had surgery on Wednesday is doing great! I call her husband every evening and check on her. I hope she continues to do well and send my thoughts & prayers to her everyday. I asked if she could have visitors and her husband said yes, why....are you in the parking lot? Oh my, that made me laugh as we are probably 2000 miles away! But I would love to see her and give her a big hug!

The other day I was scouring Pinterest and found a card that I was so taken with. It was created by Barb Brimhall and I had to case it!



Card Details:

Stamps: Watercolor Shapes(retired), Sunny Sentiments (retired)
Ink: Daffodil Delight, Basic Black Archival (retired)
Cardstock: Basic Black, Daffodil Delight
Accessories: Blending Brushes, Basic Black Matte Dots, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

It was so quick & easy to make and another card I have in my stash to send out.
It will brighten someone's day for sure!

Sunny Splash Meets Watercolor Shapes

 Good Morning & Happy Monday!

I hope you all had a nice weekend!
Our weather has been nice but a bit on the windy side. I'm hoping for another day of nice sunshine to keep me motivated to get my house cleaning done. I got most of it done yesterday and just have a little bit left. 
Today I have a fun card to share that I made on Friday when it got so hot out. I wanted to play with the retired Sunny Splash set since I did not use it much while it was available. Then I had a piece of cardstock on my shelf that I stamped with the Watercolor Shapes that just recently retired as well and paired the 2 together. I had the Watercolor Shapes set for a few months and only ever played around with it using different colors but never applied it to a card. Finally I was able to use it on a card....a fun, colorful card at that!




Card Details:

Stamps: Sunny Splash (retired), Watercolor Shapes (retired)
Ink: Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party
Cardstock: Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party, Basic White
Accessories: Stitched Rectangle Framelits (retired), Scalloped Contour Dies, Parakeet Party Ombre Matte Dots, Parakeet Party Metallic Ribbon, Glue Dots. Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I can see this card being done with lots of other bright fun colors, too!
