Has it been 2 weeks...

Two weeks sure do fly by...it seems like ages since I last posted. I've been busy crafting...not much in cards though.

************************
I just got back from a week trip to Orlando for a scrapbooking retreat with a group of girls that have been together for the past 8 years. It's the same group of girls but we switch locations almost every year....we've been to Pennsylvania, Kansas, Indiana, Illinois and Florida. We have Ohio, Maine, Nevada, and Washington to go! 



These MudLOVE braclets were made for us by Vanessa's daughter...love them and the MudLOVE message, which you can check out HERE.

I completed 18 pages and 2 mini books by Kathy King (Orta), ate Conch Fritters and Buffalo Gator (both were delish) and had a fun and relaxing weekend....can't wait to do it again next year!

Something Country

This card was made for the weekly challenge at  Loves Rubberstamps and the theme was Something Country. Sadly, we found out this morning the online store and blog have been temporarily closed due to family matters. Wishing Laura and her family the best and hopefully the store/blog will be re-opened soon.


I just love the TGF Big Anyas and Anya Blooms was perfect for the challenge. Just a little gingham and some sunflowers turned this into "country" without really trying.
