A Different Graduation Card

I feel like I haven't stamped in ages! Life has gotten busy and as much fun as it is to create, I really enjoy spending time with the kids more! We've had some great weather so we have been spending lots of time outside with our friends. Yesterday was cold and rainy so I needed some fun color to brighten my day! I also needed to make up a few graduation cards to have on hand for "Grad Season"! Here is what I came up with...

It's not your traditional graduation cards but I think it is so fun! So, I challenge you to create something outside of the box and send it to me at: Jennifer Wiemann 5706 Deer Pond Road, Centreville, VA 20120. I'll post them here and send one of you lucky ladies a prize!

Celebrate Your Day

I'm getting cards ready to sell in my new Etsy Shop! I'm hoping to have enough stock in there to launch the shop by the time school is out! I'll be sure to post as soon as it's "open"! I'm going to need your help spreading the word!!!

Here is what I made (very quickly) today in between loads of laundry! It's a great way to use scraps of DSP! And...now is a great time to purchase DSP! For every 3 packages that you buy, you get one for FREE! You can either email me with your order or go to my Stampin' UP! Website and order from there!

Oh...and for those that took part in my DSP share, the paper should arrive on my front porch any minute now and I will get that cut and mailed back out to you ASAP!!

Teacher Appreciation Gifts

Here is what I made for JP's teacher for Teacher Appreciation Week! I used the Too Sweet Simply Scrappin' Kit. Purple is her favorite color so it worked out really well! I sure hope she like it! And yes, Annie, I DID find my Big Deal Alphabet!!

Wow Flowers Birthday

I was asked to make a "pink birthday card" for a friend to give to one of her friends. I made 2 for her to choose from and this was the first. I love the Pink Pirouette and Kiwi Kiss together! It is hard to see in this picture but the center circle in the top row is popped up with a dimensional and has a silver brad in the center.

I'll post the other card later this week! I am really enjoying making cards to sell! I'm hoping to start doing a little more of this. I'm putting together a shop on etsy.com! Stay tuned for more information on that as I continue to list items and get that shop going!

On another note, today is my oldest sons' birthday! He turns 7 today. Wow, the past 7 years have gone by SO fast! I had lunch with him today and brought in a yummy snack! He isn't much for sweets so he asked me to bring in Fruit Kabobs! They were a huge hit with all of the kids! I was worried though so in order to be prepared for that one kid that complained about having such a healthy snack, I also baked sugar cookies! (Yes, they were slice and bake and no I did not burn them!) Here's a picture of me and my big boy!

Tonight we'll celebrate with family and our neighbors! E-ma (my Mom) made an ice cream cake! We are ALL looking forward to that!
