La la la....

I am loving Katie's age right now...her little personality is really starting to shine through and she is picking up new words everyday.  She is also starting to make up her own names for things and it is so funny!  Julia has an Ipod and my hubby has an MP3 player and she has taken to calling them "la-las".  'Cuz you sing...la, la, laaaa..  So cute.  Makes me giggle every time.

I can't believe it's been nearly a week since I posted last....sorry to be such a poke.  I've been busily working on May's Papertrey release and just trying to keep track of everyone with this nice weather.  Katie has taken to escaping the house, so she's needing an extra careful eye kept on her!  But, here is a card, in honor of Mother's Day, which it's hard to believe, but is just around the corner! 

I used K&Company's Lotus line by Amy Butler and I think that if it was possible to be paper, I would be THIS paper.  :-)  So, so pretty..it pretty much creates by itself.  I love the look of PTI's new Smokey Shadow with it.  But, then again, I'm pretty much in love with Smokey Shadow with anything. 

 

I added a froofy, layered flower which uses a scallop circle as a base (stamped with Polka-Dot Basics), a Prima flower, a Maya Road knit blossom and some Bazzill leaves.

Ok, off to try get some work done while it's raining and the kids are trapped inside.  :-)  Have a happy Thursday!
