And because it’s summer, I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one spending more time playing outside with the kids. :)   My craft room isn’t out there, but I do sneak down into the nice air conditioning once in a while.  Here is another card from one of those times. :)

Other demonstrators will probably recognize this!  I copied it almost exactly out of our montly magazine.  I love the ideas that I get from the demonstrator publications!  Really, when I’m not feeling creative at all, there are plenty of places to peek for inspiration. :)

Later!,

This is proof that I am still here, and I do still make cards! :)   Wow, busy busy, but I do still escape for some play time here and there.

I used a cutie patootie new birthday set for this card, Birthday Bliss.  And when I finished, I realized no stamp pads … just Versamark and markers on this one.  I’ll put the details below. :)

It’s almost 1 AM, off to bed!  Just finishing up some whole wheat cinnamon rolls.  Um, yummy? :)   Breakfast tomorrow morning will be oh so sweet, even when the baby wakes up too early.  Bye for now!
