This is one of the cards we made in class this week.  The die cut image is from the Window Box die set.  Thanks for stopping by!

Wetlands Sympathy Card

Today I have a sympathy card to share using the Serene Scenery DSP from the annual catalog and the Wetlands stamp set.  My Shelby asked me to make a card for her friend in band whose grandfather passed away.  I love that she is in band mainly because of all the close friendships that have developed from it.  They are a very hard working and intelligent group of kids who get together outside of band and have fun and  are 100% committed to maintaining their winning record in competitions.  Thanks for stopping by!

Thinking of You Thoughtful Branches

You may get tired of seeing this stamp set, thoughtful branches, before I am tired of using it.  Like I said earlier, it is very versatile, this time for a thinking of you card.  If it is something you think you want, remember it is only available while supply lasts for the month of August and then it will be gone.  thanks for stopping by!

Serene Silhouettes

I had planned to finish the rest of the Hungry Caterpillar party yesterday and share it with you today but between doctors visits, laundry stacked to the moon and back, and severe weather it didn't happen.  So, here is a sympathy card using the stamp set Serene Silhouettes.  The card stock colors are Soft Sky and Night of Navy.

 We had a tornado warning party in the closet last night and the kids loved it so much they want to do it every night. We don't have a basement nor a storm shelter so  after our town experienced a deadly tornado a couple years ago I cleared out a closet under the stairway and designated it the tornado party place.  I put a few toys, radio, flashlights, batteries, blankets, snacks,ect in there.  We were in bed when the tornado sirens sounded, so I ran to their rooms, woke them, and hurried into the closet.  They were scared at first but then quickly settled in and Dalton even wanted to sleep there the rest of the night.

So Sorry

Sympathy cards are the hardest for me to make and to send but having received them when experiencing loss I know how much they mean to the recipient.  I combined two stamp sets to make this CAS card which we made at my last Stamp a Stack.

We are still out of school for weather again today, my kids are very bored.  I have managed to get several things out of the way such as hair cuts and eye appointments that are usually hard to schedule around school hours.

Love and Sympathy

With Deepest Sympathy

Good afternoon! Sympathy cards are the hardest for me to make, especially if I don't have one on hand when I need one. I guess it is because you just never know what to say to someone who has suffered a loss. This stamp is from the the same set as yesterdays card, Thanks for Caring. The card stock colors are Early Espresso and Very Vanilla and the DP is from the Neutrals patterned package.  Thanks for stopping by!

I'm so sorry

This is a sympathy card I made for the office staff of my eye doctor who passed away a few weeks ago. The secretary there has called a few times to let me know they are trying to re-organize and get all his patients taken care of by the other doctor who works in the office and I can tell they are very shaken by his death so I thought a card and maybe some cookies would be a nice gesture. I used the Inspired by Nature stamp along with a sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes. Thanks for stopping by.

ps...I am caught up on all the orders for my Kit of the Month, I really got behind while on vacation so I worked on those all day yesterday and mailed them today. Thanks to all who ordered. Also, I have submitted the orders for Janet and Teresa and will let you know as soon as SU ships them so you can tract them for a delivery date...thanks girls, I appreciate your orders!
