Florida is getting my baby sister.....

Kerry is on her way to Port Orange, FL.
I am sad, the girls are sad, even Scott is sad.
But this is a new journey for her.
I know she will make the best of it.
I know I will talk to her ALL the time.

Some pics of our gathering for her last week....

Kerry & the kiddos who love her.

Kerry & her BFF, Tammi (since they were 9)

Mom, Kerry, & George

Kerry & her fave BILs

The ones below are of Sandy & I
torturing Kerry.  She will miss that immensely!






LOVE YOU, KER!

Cards, Cards, Cards

I have been in card making mode lately.
I love that I can be creative in a short
amount of time & make a person's day
just by making a handmade card.

Found a "new to me" sketch community
called "My Sketch World."
They have both layout and card sketches
posted on the 1st & 15th of each month.
PLUS, their forum is filled with the nicest
crafters! They are so friendly & welcoming.
Here are two cards I made based on
card sketches from My Sketch World



Here is another card I did last week
based on a sketch over at Sketchy Thursdays:

Spunky Scrapper's DT Sketch Reveal

Did I tell you all that I made the Spunky Scrapper's DT?
Well, I did!  The ladies there have their own
spunky style, which is a fab thing in my book.

My awesome friend, Cherie, made Spunky's
Sketch DT.  I am ecstatic about this because I
love her sketches & she doesn't do them often enough
(IMO). :)

Here is Cherie's first sketch for Spunky:


Here is my take on it:


New sketches are posted on the 1st & 15th of the month
at Spunky Scrappers.
