Ciao! I have a very simple card that I made and would love to share it with you. I am finding that quick and easy works best for me now. Be it card-making, digi pages, my photography and most everything in my life. Time is going by me so fast and I find that I am no longer able to do all things that are complicated and time consuming. Hence, changing what I do to simpler things. :) Can any of you identify with that?
Here is my card:
I love the sentiment "hello". I have not made any other cards using it. I thought it would be great to make several of these cards so that I could send them out to a few friends and family and simply have it say "Hello",now that is a simple way of letting someone know that you are thinking of them right?
Here is what I used:
The new Pansy punch from Stampin'UP!
Tea For Two DP from Stampin'UP! (discontinued).
Dalias for the center of each pansy. They look like leaves. Stampin'UP!
Ink: Gumball Green
Card-stock: Gina K. Pure Luxry . I wanted a card-stock that would supportt he weight of my card. Works great.
Sentiment: From the Elementary Elegance stamp set also from Srtampin'UP!
I also have a few photos to share with you. No, they are not Grace photos. :)
My youngest granddaughter,Alexis was up for a 3 week visit in June. She lives in Kentucky. What a lovely young lady she is. I took some photos of her, my son and Wayne.
Here is a photo I took of Alexis.
My Son and Alexis (his daughter)
Wayne, Jeremy and Alexis
Alexis and I.
Wayne took this photo of the two of us. I took lots more but thought that These would give you an idea of how we all looked on Fathers day. :) It was wonderful to have both Wayne and my son on that day. Even though we were not able to spend more time together I sure will be missing her.
Thank you for stopping by to see what I have been up to. I hope that all of you are staying safe, cool and that you are smiling big. :)
Your card may be simple, Mary, but that does not take away from the fact it is beautiful! Speaking of beautiful, your photos are always fabulous!

Beautiful, just beautiful Mary. Love the photos and your granddaughter is looking pretty fine too. You card....... Well what can I say?????? humm humm Well it's just absolutely
adorable. You just gotta do what you gotta do Mary. We both know that very well. Sometimes we don't pay attention or listen hard enough to tell ourselves it's time to stop.
I too may be stamping as soon as I get my island cleared off and find another space to put all my Christmas stamps and things. It's driving me nuts.
