Daisy Delight

We are having nasty storms about to hit this morning so I'll make this quick. More pattern paper with daisies in it so that made it easy for me. I added a yellow strip of card stock to bring out the color and added a Poppy Stamps daisy die cut. The sentiment is Avery Elle.

This is the fourth week of I.D.E.A.S. and Anything Goes so I'll pop this card over.

Never blame others for the road you're on. It's your own asphalt.

The heat is on

My part of the country is in another heat wave this week, so I'll get more cards made. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday are going to be in the 100's heat index and I'm just not up for that.

Quick update on Daisy. The meds worked and she isn't in pain anymore. She isn't suppose to jump on things but she is so fast I'm having a hard time keeping up with her to lift her onto things. I hope an inflammation was all it was and it's over with.

This card was made with one of my new paper pads called Autumn Flowers Scrapbook paper from Amazon. I just cut a piece into four parts and added a sentiment. I know these cards are simple but they are designs that I've never made before so I feel like I'm branching out.

I hate when the cashier feels the need to see if my money is real. If I could counterfeit money I wouldn't be at the Dollar Store!




Be kind to one another.

Just when I think

things are going back to normal, I find this is normal. I missed last week altogether when life happened. Sunday night last week found Daisy unable to jump on the furniture. She would try and yelp. Monday I took her to the vet and they think she has a nerve in her neck in her spinal cord that is inflamed. She is on pain meds and an anti-inflammatory. They said don't let her jump on things. Of course she feels better and wants to jump, so I've been following her around all week so she won't.  
That's what's going on around here.

This is a card I was so happy to make. I used pattern paper from a pack called Heart of Home by Jen Hadfield. Some papers have gold foil and are so beautiful. I was delighted to find the paper had Chloe Stems on it and I was able to cut a Memory Box Chloe stem die from gold mirror cardstock to embellish it with. The card was sent to a dear friend and the sentiment was given to me by another dear friend that I embossed with gold. I embossed the die cut, not the friend.  Friends are the most wonderful people life blesses us with.

I will post this card to 
since this is the second Monday of the month and I used a die.

"Yes, officer, I did see the speed limit sign. I just didn't see you".
