A Little Birdie Told Me...

HI there! Just a quick post share a card with you. Whipped this one up a few days ago using a Pure Innocence digi stamp. Sentiment is a rubber stamp, I think by Stampabilities.

Been super HOT in Texas these days......perfect crafting inside weather!
Have a wonderful Wednesday!
 

Hi It's me...........

All of our kids are away at college, so I spend plenty of time missing them! My 2 boys live together and are about 2.5 hours away. My youngest, our only girl, lives 4 hours away. I've gotten over the "blues" about them flying the nest...but I still like to let them know I think of them often and miss them even more!!!

Sent this to my daughter.........

Card Details: Image-Heather Ellis (Pure Innocence), Papers-MORE Heidi Grace (LOL),

Stickles-Studio G, Bling-The Paper Studio, Vintage Seam Binding-Thrift Store find

 

And here they are...the 3 kids I miss so much! I am so proud of them too!!

 

 

Wow!! Can you believe I posted a new card everyday this week!?  It felt great to have 2 days off, and it felt even better to get some crafting done!

 

Have a blessed Friday!

 

 

 

 

Wishing I could....

Lately, I've been missing my sister. God blessed me with 1 sister and 1 brother, and even though they only live an hour away we don't get to see eachother as often as I'd like. So there are days when I'm really missing my siblings.

I am sending her this card...I'm sure she will enjoy it!

Card Details: Image-Heather Ellis, Papers: Heidi Grace, Stickles: Studio G., Bling: The Paper Studio

And a correction...on the last 2 posts using this paper, I stated it was Heidi Swapp..don't know where I got that!! It's actually Heidi Grace!  Sorry about that!!!

Have a wonderful Thursday!!!
 

Just Swinging by.......
