Hey there! Posting two days in a row...I'm on a roll, huh? I have been thinking that I really need to be better about blogging more just for fun. I have been feeling the urge to create things just for fun....but, ahhhghh...If only there were more hours in the day. BUT, I think we've finally come through to the end of a season of crazy busyness here (we had a major home improvement project that lasted about 3 months, of which we did all the work ourselves...remind me not to do that again!). So, I'm *hoping* that life will settle into a little slower pace (is that possible with 3 school age kids??) and I'll have the chance to post here a little more often.
So, anyways...here's another card for today, using the same principle I showed in this week's Make it Monday. This time I replaced the word "happy" with some American Crafts foam glitter Thickers. I stamped the pretty roses from The Sweet Life set in the corners. The sentiment is from Make a Wish. All supplies are linked in the thumbnails below!
Thanks for stopping by today, and hopefully you'll see me back here soon. I hope you get a chance to play with this week's Make it Monday! :-)
