Hello Crafty Friends! today I would like to share with you my entry for the My Pink Stamper design team. Robyn has openings for her upcoming 2011 2 Term My Pink Stamper Design Team!

Here are the requirements....

*You will need to have a blog that you regularly post on for at least 3 months.

*Your project must be made just for this challenge

*Post a pic on your blog with a full recipe along with what the challenge is about

*This needs to be a new project that you make just for this challenge

Two Seasons

I saw this challenge a few weeks ago and thought I'd give it a try. Making a card that was identical in it's design but different in color to see if I could create the feeling of a season. My first card is a Spring time card, created with Purples and Greens and the second card is for Fall using Rust, Orange and Cream colors.

Let me know what you think... Do they feel like the season I created them for?

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!

Thank you notes

Do you always send out Thank you cards when good things come your way?

My family recently received a wonderful gift, A very dear friend of our family signed us into Disneyland and California Adventure for my daughters 5th birthday. There was no way we could have afforded to take our family into both parks and enjoy the food as well as treat the girls to a doll at the end of the night. So this one act was huge in our books.

When the arrangements were made and up until the moment we walked through the gates I must have said thank you a hundred times; however, I didn't think it was enough. So a couples days after our FANTASTIC day I decided to make a card for our Dear Friends. The card is bright and cheerful just like our mood from spending the day at the Happiest Place On Earth and inside I sent a gift card for dinner and a movie. Hopefully they can have a family night together, one as wonderful as the day they gave us.

I quickly sent the card off in the mail so that they would receive it before the weekend but forgot to take a picture of the finished product. So I've made duplicates to match the original for the next time good fortune comes our way and a thank you is required.
