Rough day

Boy we have had a string of bad luck lately. Yesterday, poor Andrew had an accident and injured his fingers. A propane tank fell and he tried to stop it and it ended up smashing his fingers. It broke the tip of one finger and scraped/pulled off an entire fingernail. One trip to the ER and thankfully they were able to repair. Ouch. Brave boy. He's healing up. Gross picture below.

Tomorrow he will have two root canals due to a baseball to the mouth about a month ago. 

Sending positive vibes to the universe... We need some returned!


More soccer!

Ben and Chris watched another exhibition game Sunday. You can beat free and celebrity sightings!


Soccer for Nic!

Nicholas just finished his first soccer season and received his very first trophy. So exciting. He said... "I can add this trophy to my collection, like brothers."


May Card Club projects

Check out this month's card club projects. We used product from the Occasions catalog, Annual catalog as well as a few items that are reining at the end of the month. 

This a fun and a bit of an elaborate baby card. This card does take a some time to create.  We used the That's the Ticket stamp and Punch, the Spiral Flower Die and lots of gold. 




These two samples focus on the Six-sided sampler bundle (stamp set & punch). The 15% discount for the bundle retires at the end of this month.




This small 3x3" card uses the set Zoo Babies. The elephant in this set is so cute. We used the small oval punch to make his ear pop. I've seen this technique done and love it. 

We also used the Designer Frames Embossing folders. I love them. These are retiring at the end of the month also - so sad. Get them now.




This Congratulations card was CASED from a card Paula Critchlow cased from Jill Olsen. HA! How's that for giving credit?! All I did was changed up the color scheme so the card was more gender neutral.

This "Hello Sweet Friend" card shows how you can use the same template/design for a totally different look. This is the same template and size as the small 3x3" Zoo Elephant card. Instead I used the Six-sided sample bundle.
