Congratulations on your hopes

I found out that I have another cousin that is pregnant and she is also expecting a girl.  So I now know of three people who are pregnant with girls.  I will see my cousin this weekend so I wanted to get this card made for her.  I used the pre-colored image from Imagine That Digistamp called Pregnant Peggy.  I made this a shaker easel card.  The sentiment is from TLC.

Youth is the gift of nature

My daughter and her boyfriend graduated this weekend, and we had a celebration at my parents' home after the ceremony.  I'm so proud of them, and it is exciting to have them start on their careers.  My daughter graduated with a degree in Education and is going to teach 1st grade summer school and 3rd grade in the fall.  Next week she is moving so there is just a lot going on.
Here is a card that I made using an older image from Image That called Spring Kitty with a sentiment from TLC.  I made this as an easel card.  And colored it like a Siamese (since 3 of them own me).

TLC Paulette's Birthday

Today, April 15th is Paulette's birthday at TLC.  She has a freebie today as she does many days.  I have been on her DT for sometime and I enjoy creating for her.  She has monthly clubs which are incredible to get deals on word art, vintage images, papers, subway art and whatever she creates that come directly to your email.  She also has a great vintage blog with freebies called Vintage TLC.  We are also going to have a Christmas blog that will have a hop on May 1 Creating Christmas.  So there is always fun going on somewhere.  So to show appreciation, I made a card using an image that was just in latest club and a sentiment from TLC.  I made it an easel card which I just love as a layout.
