*thank you, thank you, thank you...*

Lime green and berry is a delightful combination, don't ya think? My friend has chosen them as her wedding colors, and I happened to have to a thank you card to make, so I thought I'd try them out. I love it! I'll definitely be using these colors again!

*thanks*

I whipped up this card for some friends who had us over for supper last weekend. I bought these cute stamps from Purple Onion Designs a few months back when they were on sale and thought the house would work nicely for a "thank you for your hospitality" card.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

*another happy anniversary*

I made another anniversary card today, this time for my BIL and SIL. I just ordered some fun doily dies from My Favorite Things and was a tad bit disappointed when they didn't have the one I really wanted. I'm dying to get my hands on the High Tea Party Doily, which I may just have to break down and pay full price for once it's back in stock. But this one's pretty cute, and I'm happy that I bought it. I'm still lovin' The Cat's Pajamas bunny rabbits, and I'm hoping they come out with lots more new ones SOON!

The weather here is crazy warm for November, and I'm heading out to soak it all in since it might be one of the last nice days we'll get.

Thanks for stopping by!

*such exciting news*

My best friend Jess got engaged earlier this month, and I'm tickled beyond words for her! So of course, I had to make her a card. I've had this dress stamp for ages, and it was the perfect opportunity to pull it off the shelf and use it. Can you believe that in my huge collection of stamps I couldn't seem to find the right sentiment? Really great handwriting would come in handy about now. Oh well.

Thanks for stopping by!

*4 YOU*

I'm popping in today to share a card I made for my husband's mom. She just had surgery and thankfully is doing well. I used the Nantucket stamp set by Pink Paislee and some lovely crinkled seam binding I ordered from a quaint little shop on Etsy.

So glad you stopped by!

*so thankful*

This week I've been busy making thank you cards... which is a good thing. It means I have a lot of people in my life to be thankful for. My husband and I just celebrated our 23rd anniversary, and we received lots of thoughtful cards and wonderful gifts.

I found so much inspiration from color challenges, personal blogs, and magazines. Baker's twine seems to be the trendy thing right now, and I was delighted to get my hands on some. As you can see, I seem to be going through a kraft paper craze at the moment. Better add to that my love for these sweet little chubby birds and darling bunny rabbits. Oh... and clouds and gingham.

I don't just have a lot to be thankful for, I also have a lot to be excited about. My bestest friend in the whole world just got engaged... and on my 23rd anniversary at that! I'm happy beyond words for her!

Thanks so much for stopping by! Have a bee-uuuu-tiful day!
