Hey there and good morning!I'm glad this rain held off until late in the afternoon yesterday. All the grand kids were able to play together and we had a little photo shoot! Here's I am with all six of my babies. They are all grown up now, but you know how it is, they will always be my babies!
They also surprised me with this:
The signatures are from my parents' marriage certificate and the date. It's one of those "I never knew I always wanted" kind of gifts! I was in tears when they gave it to me. I will treasure it forever!
Ok, now that you have endured my gushing, how about some swaps?
Kelly Acheson created a detachable bookmark card with the Dictionary Background (retiring) and Mother's Love from the Occasions Catalog, which is also retiring on June 2nd:
Pool Party, Whisper White, Basic Black card stocks with Memento Tuxedo Black, Pool Party, and Pearl Pizzazz inks. The Scalloped Tag Topper punch was used to create the top of the bookmark.
Next, Linda Pagel created this pull-up pop-up card with the Just Kidding stamp set. She used the retiring Chevron Background (retiring) on the Melon Mambo layer with Melon Mambo ink, attaching to the Bermuda Bay card base.
The card pulls up and pops out!
Laura Milligan used the same Just Kidding set for her creation:
She used Pacific Point, Basic Black, Real Red, and Whisper White with a bit of Back to Black Designer Paper (retiring)
Finally, Tamie Ackerson used an old favorite, Summer Silhouettes for her soft and pretty birthday card:
A bit of Pool Party 1/4" Cotton Ribbon for the bow:
"Make a Wish" from Perfect Pennants:
