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.

Oh yeah I have a blog!

Well...I kind of forgot I was blogging now.  Honestly I haven't been creating much lately.  I am working on my niece's wedding invitations and that has taken priority over creating new cards/projects.  I'm not allowed to post a photo of them until they are sent out, so check back in August/Sept. to see them.

I've also been trying to get my space more organized and have realized I have too much stuff and not enough storage for it all. Unfortunately this means I end up with stacks and piles everywhere that tend to avalanche when I'm trying to create, thus making  a "hostile" work environment!  Ha!

Here are a couple cards I have made since the last time I posted. Hope you enjoy!

A birthday card I made for one of my husband's co-workers girlfriend.

This is a birthday card that I liked, but it just didn't seem "done" to me.  The following two shots are the transformation it went through to get the final card.

I posted the first picture on FB and asked what was missing.  Several replies suggested some flowers so I added flowers with some bling in the centers. In addition to some green ribbon. 

Another suggestion was to give the butterflies antennae. So I added antennae which seemed to add the perfect final touch for the card. I love the way it turned out and really like the different textures.  
  I hope you like the cards!  I'm not feeling very "bloggy" today but wanted to get something up, so there ya go!  Until next time I wish you peace and joy.
