Graduation Card for Walker

  Hello and thanks for stopping by. Today my grandson Walker Quade will be graduating from high school. I'm having mixed emotions about him graduating.

 I'm so happy for him and feel blessed to be able to be here for the celebration. But I'm also sad that he is no longer that sweet little boy that would stop by after getting off the bus looking for something good to eat. 

He has grown up into a wonderful young man that I'm very proud of and yes, he is still sweet. 

So, I wanted to share with you all the card I made for him. 



This card came together fairly quick. Well, it would have been done a little sooner if I hadn't mess up the hat and had to make a second one. 

Made the graduation hat on my Cricut and the sentiment is from a set called Perfect Pairing from S.U.

It's going to be a busy day, so I need to get going. Hope you all have a wonderful day!

Just For You Mother's Day Card

 Good evening, it has been a gorgeous day here in Indiana. 64 degrees. Sunny, Blue skies with giant fluffy clouds, birds singing and a light breeze. Can't beat this weather. I hate it when it gets too hot. 

We are just a few days away from Mother's Day, I wasn't for sure if I was going to be able to get a card made. But I finally got it done.




 My Mom is 87 years young and has always loved my cards that I have created for her. She love's sparkly things so of course I had to add some sparkle. It's actually a lot more sparkly in person.  I think she will be happy with this one.

Since I didn't have a lot of time I decided on a napkin card. They are great if you need a fast card. The longest part is waiting for the napkin to dry to the cardstock. I thought I was done but remembered to add a few pearls for one of the challenges.

Wanting to wish a Happy Mother's Day to all of you. Thanks for stopping by. God bless!
