Greetings!
I love Blue-Footed Boobies. They are such silly animals. I had the pleasure of visiting the Galapagos Islands years ago. The first thing I saw when I got off the plane was a flock of Blue-Footed Boobies. They are such fascinating animals. As a team, the whole flock dives from the sky into the clear blue waters to catch fish. It is crazy to watch. On land they are much less graceful. They have an awkward little walk. It is hard to keep a straight face when you see them waddle along.
Well....needless to day... this stamp caught my attention. I inked it up the same day the postman dropped it off at my house. How often can I say that? I hope it puts a smile on your face.

Purple Poppies
Welcome,
I have a quick card to share with you today. I wanted to restock on my stash of sympathy cards. I love the look of the purples with the black. I felt like it created the perfect look for a sympathy card. What do you think? What kind of stamps do you use for sympathy cards?

Hello Kitty
Welcome friends,
These cats look like they are ready to party. This was a fairly fast and fun card to put together. I inlaid the letters because I like the look. I needed a fairly fast card so I sponged ink on the letters. However, If I were to make this card again. I think I would color the letters with copics. What do you think?

Dandelion Fairy
Hello!
I hope all the Mother's out there had a wonderful Mother's Day yesterday. I was very happy to celebrate with my family yesterday. It was a very nice day. I'm so blessed.
Spring seems to go have gone on vacation these last few weeks in upstate New York. Last night, I had to get an extra blanket because I was so cold. Hopefully, this will warm it up your day.

I hope your Birthday is a SMASH
Greetings Friends,
I made this card about a month ago. I just didn't have a chance to get it on the blog. I got the idea for this card when I was shopping at Hobby Lobby. I was looking through the party isle looking for ideas for my son's birthday party. They had a whole section for a Fiesta. He is a little young to appreciate the hat, but I thought it was cute. It turned out to be great inspiration for a card!

I've Got Your Back
Howdy,
Thanks for stopping by today. I have an encouragement card to share with you today. I know that we don't often think to make or send them encouragement cards. However, as I move into this phase of my life. I see my friends struggle with all sorts of issues. Some with divorce, health issues, parenting issues, work issues...etc. Life is full of stress. We live in a age where it is easy to write on their wall, send an email, or a text message. I think it is nice to send encouragement cards. They can set the card on their desk or mantel and it serves as a constant reminder that they are not alone. It last so much longer than a text message. I fell in love with this image as soon as I saw it. I hope it brightens someone's day.

Thinking of Tulips
Happy May 1st!
What is it they say? April Showers Bring May Flowers. Well BRING ON THE FLOWERS!! We certainly had a our share of rain last month. I'm ready to see some Flowers. To help encourage the process. I have this fun tulip card to share.
When the card is closed it folds flat, but when you open it up to a accordion.
