Peary Good Start for Summer, N'est Pas?

Spent some time over the last few days making several cards. This card expresses a little of my excitement for the changes. While I realize that summer is in the middle of June, for me, it's Memorial Day weekend...which is upon us!

So, YAY for summer. I so want to skip off to spend some much needed time outdoors soaking up the vitamin D, smelling the warm grass, and relishing in breezy sunshine (minus any trace of humidity, please).

I love this pear image from the New Season, New Wonder set. I just kept adding little bits of color here and there until I was satisfied.....And then, threw in Bloom & Simplify. And even more texture and distressing. And layers. It finally came together where I feel satisfied.

Anyway, a few people are receiving these shortly. I just love putting little surprises in the mail, don't you?

What's even better? Unity started a pre-Memorial sale and if you haven't gotten your hands on these sets, you might want to scoop them up now with the 31% off sale....

Beautiful card, Rebecca! The stamp and embossing folder go together perfectly-and I love the distressed look of this!

Baker John

Totally scrumptious, this bread. John is home from college right now and in-between hours of aimless gaming, he must be thinking of good food. He trolled my cookbook case and pulled a very old Italian bread cookbook out and VOILA....filled our house with the wonderful aroma of rosemary. His first loaf.

Big Birthday Celebration

Are you here having fun hopping along with 3GirlJAM in celebration of Julie's sister's big birthday year? What a great little cyber party we're having! (she's really a young thing, but she's having a great year) Well, if not, you should be hopping along (I'll tell you why in a moment). There are some really wonderful birthday ideas from all of us on the design team...and including Julie's two girls, who are also having fun celebrating their aunt's birthday. If you need to go back to the beginning, head over to the 3GirlJAM blog to get started. Otherwise.... Here's my card in celebration her special year! I used blue crinkle ribbon from the newly released Red,White,Blue Bundle. It's such a nice shade of blue! The white has bits of the red and blue in it (and I love the ribbon when it's like that)...and the red is also pretty awesome...like marachino cherries. The little button in the center is from Pinque Peacock (l

Stylish Gift Bag

Today I have the above project featured over on the Pinque Peacock blog. (go visit!) I love how it turned out. It is a relatively simple design, but is sturdy and large enough to hold a nice size gift. I put handmade soaps in it and I don't think it will have any trouble holding up under the weight! Anyway, hope you like it! Let me know if you'd like a tutorial and I'll get my busy little hands to work! In the meantime, enjoy your holiday. We are supposed to have some pretty heavy storms, but today, so far, it is nice enough (SUPER hot and humid, but very few clouds).
