Unity - hearts

Unity has a challenge going on right now and the theme is HEARTS.  I've purchased some really cute stamps from them recently, but I'm having trouble finding the time to get them all inked up!   One set I just received
was "Spotted Owl Soup".  It's got some really fun stamps... Here is a birthday card I made with it: 

Snow day

It seems like the weather should be getting warmer and spring should be fast approaching, but this week we got snow!!! We usually don't get too much snow so we really enjoy it when we do!! (=   Here are a couple pictures!

A picture of the backyard with a nice dusting of snow!

My sweet girls enjoying the snow day!!

Love you bunches

This is a very sweet and simple card using the adorable Puddle Jumper Harper from By LORi Designs.  I just love Lori's sweet images!!!  If you'd like to check them out go HERE.

I used Kraft Cardstock and the background doily was cut using my Silhouette machine!  I added a few cute butterflies using my MS punch.  This sentiment is also included with this image! TFL! (=

Nesting birds

Oh, am I starting to have fun with my Silhouette machine!!  It is just so cool!!! (=  I really only know how to do the very basics, but look what you can do!  Love this sweet bird image. 

This would make a nice Mothers Day gift!  Don't ya think?

Playing with my silhouette

I've been playing a little with my Silhouette.  Here are a couple fun little cards...

My Kitty

Today was a really tough day for me.  My Cat I've had for almost 17 years started to decline very quickly over the weekened.  It was clear by today that I would probally have to put her down.  I knew it was the best thing for her, but it was REALLY hard to do.  Here are some pictures of her and the family...

The first mosaic is of past pictures dating back to 1994!

Here are some recent pictures with the family!

I'm really gonna miss having her by my side while I'm doing my late night crafting!
