I am a mom of a college student, experiencing the woes and the joys of being an empty nester. I recently became a Stampin Up! independent demonstrator and am loving every minute of it.

Rainy days and Mondays

We don't usually have many rainy days in January here in NE Ohio.  But there it is...

Here is a little card I made to chase away the cold rainy Monday blahs.  It started out as a couple of white scrap pieces I found while cleaning up my crafting area.  When I came across them I thought to myself, "These look like clouds! When did I make clouds?" when I realized how they had come to be, I then thought, "I should make a card out of those." and one thing lead to another.  A sunny carefree day at the lake on a warm summer day...that's where I spent my cold, rainy Monday afternoon.  I hope you enjoy it:

 

Here are a couple more cards that I made yesterday:

Happy Birthday card using Stampin Up!'s new "Elementary Elegance" stamp set from the "Sale-a-Bration" event starting on Jan. 24th.

A quiet winter scene using a brayer to apply the background ink.  A shout out to my upline Linda for teaching me this technique.  The "Hello" is also from the "Elementary Elegance" SAB set.  The trees are from SU's "Lovely as a Tree" set.
