Know What

Hello stampers!

As crazy as this week started out, it's turned around nicely!  On Wednesday, I went to a class for work all day.  By the end of the day, I had built my own responsive web app!  How fun!  I feel so accomplished - even though it's a very basic, elementary app.  Now, to make that cool stuff work to enhance my blog ...

On Thursday it didn't rain and I had another good day at work.  I hope Friday brings another good day!

Time for another card from my very talented sister!  This card uses the bonus stamp set form the April Paper Pumpkin kit, All About Everything.  It's a fun set - I hope you got one!

Friendship

Hello stampers!

This crazy week continues!  On Tuesday we had some wild storms roll through the area.  According to my rain gauge, we picked up 2.3 inches of rain in right around an hour!

And the day started with some visitors taking a dip in the pool!


Crazy day, crazy week!

Today's card is for this week's challenge at The Paper Players.  It's a sketch challenge from Claire this week.

Here is the sketch:


And here is my card:

Noteworthy

Hello stampers!

The week is off to a good start for me!  I worked from home on Monday.  Mr. Brown delivered a box from Stampin' Up! for the third day in a row, with another box due on Tuesday.  And the weather was in the '80's!  A wonderful day!

My card today is for this week's color challenge from Christine at Can You Case It?.  Some form of this card has been lurking in my brain for a while now, and when I saw this challenge, I decided it was time to put the idea to paper.

Here is the challenge:

CYCI#117

And here is my card:

Mint Macaron Birthday!

Hello stampers!

Wow, it was a beautiful day here in the St Louis area on Sunday.  It felt like mid summer, with temperatures in the 80's!  A keeper day, to be sure!

Today I am sharing a card I made for my BIL's birthday last week.  The stamped image is the same as the one I used for my niece's birthday a couple of weeks ago, but the card is totally different!



And the inside:
