Monday!

Well it's been a long week plus - got Charlie to Fort Worth to the dentist last week - took him to the doctor today PLUS spent about 2-3 hours at the college trying to get Jason straighted out with his classes. Once - just ONCE I would love a "me" weekend. BUT we also just got fabulous news that little Brayden made it through his heart cath - got two stents and is doing well. They will keep him intubated overnight just to keep him still but then he should be home in a couple of days. They said this should last him 5- 10 years - MAN I hope so. This little trouper has been through some major ordeals and he's only 4 years old - three open heart procedures and several heart caths. But he's happy - loves life and keeps our hearts overflowing that he's here!
First off I have a card for the Card Patterns this week. Love this stamp by Paper Works and just never find enough chances to use it. The papers are from Jillibean.




Then over at Core'dinations this month we have started a color challenge. Look at these yummy colors. LOVED working with this. Here's my page with my granddaughter, Madison (r) and her friend.
And if that's not all one of the new releases and sneaks has been announced. We (Core'dinations) has teamed up once again with Tim Holtz for some fabulous papers. AND drum-roll - they have 24 gorgeous colors with a KRAFT!!! base. Could life be sweeter! Here's a layout from Tim Holtz showing off some of the new patterns that are coming out. Check out the Core'dinations blog for more exciting details and more of the DT's layouts and cards using the July color challenge.

Thanks for stopping by!

  3. Sounds like a crazy weekend indeed, Debbie. But thank goodness little Brayden did so well on his latest surgery. That is a true blessing. Your projects are beautiful. That card really made me smile. Fun image, fun sentiment. Just perfect. And the layout is really fun and pretty, both. Love the little cut outs and love all the circle elements.

  4. Just adorable Deb! I have that same stamp on your first card but haven't used it yet because I'm afraid of coloring. LOL Just got some Copics and I think that will be one of the first images I color!
