It's a beautiful spring day and what do I do? Stay inside and make cards! LOL I did spend some time today outside with Gracie as she played with the water hose and chased flies. She's so funny! I took some great photos and hope to add them to a layout soon.
Right now I'm gathering photos and waiting until the Mother's Day Retreat I'm attending with Carly and 10 of my Scrappin' In Patterson friends.
Here's one card I made using a sketch from Freshly Made Sketches. You can find their site

I'm still learning to play with alcohol based markers. But this image was pretty easy since it only involved two colors. The yellow embossed cardstock was given to me via a swap a long time ago and the patterned paper was part of my scrap stash. The sliver of doily was buried underneath some stuff on my work area. I trimmed it down a little and thought it was perfect for this very simple card. I also added some rhinestones at the ends of the antenae, but they are hard to see in this photo.
Here's another card that I made just for fun:
This is a stamp I purchased at Hobby Lobby in their clearance section for $1.19. What a deal, huh?
Cute cards! I like the happy, summer feel to them. Great bargain on the stamp!
