Sending Out A Birthday "HOOT!"

August 4, 2013

My niece, Olivia is going to turn 12 this week!  How did that happen?  One more year until she becomes an official teenager.  She loves owls, so I used the Stampin' Up! Owl punch to create this special birthday card for her.  I hope she loves it!

Timeless Talk

August 3. 2013

I am so excited to share my cards that I made this afternoon.  I love rustic/primitive items and couldn't wait to play with the new stamp set "Timeless Talk!"  

Anyone that knew me as a child, knows I spent countless hours on the telephone.  Without recorders, caller ID, call waiting, cell phones or texting, it was always a mystery who was on the other end of the line!  If I only had a dime for every time my Daddy told me to "GET OFF THE PHONE!!!!!!!"

   ENJOY!!!!!
