Happy Sunday

Good morning, I hope you are enjoying your long weekend. I have a wonderful day scrapbooking in Red Deer with some lovely ladies from Savvy'n'Sassy. It was so much fun.

Today I have my interpretation from Creatively Yours. Ali has come up with another fabulous sketch. Head over there to see all the DT creations.



This is my littlest on a hike last year. Where he gets the energy I do not know.



Well that's it for today. So far it's sunny out here but I have the feeling it won't stay that way for long. Have a great Sunday, see you next week!

A Pink & Purple Friday

TGIF!!

Today I have my challenge from the Town Scrapper. The challenge this week is to use pink and purple on your card. Any of you who know me know that I'm NOT a purple fan. But I found that I could work with the new Basic Grey Green at heart line that has both. So it wasn't so bad, LOL. I used one of the lovely Victoria Case stamps on this. I love them. And of course my Copics



Copics used: E00, E35, E37, E39, E97, R20, R85, R35, R81, V15, V17, W1, W7

Hope you have a great day and have a lovely Mother's Day weekend. We have a very busy weekend planned. I'm looking forward to it all.

Creatively Yours Saturday

Happy May Day. And happy birthday to my baby sister (she hates when I call her that, LOL). We have a fun day of pizza and cupcakes planned for her.

Today I have a quick post to share my Creatively Yours layout. When I saw this animated conversation I had to take a picture. My boys (especially the little one) talk with their hands. Must be the Greek in them! So I took a bunch of pictures. They sat there for over an hour just chatting.



Quick post today. Hope you enjoy your May day.
