A House of Cards

Friday, May 16, 2008

Happy Friday!

I am going to try and enjoy my last kid-free Friday for quite a while. The last day of school for my kids is next Thursday, so that means no more quiet days for me. I enjoy my quiet time, but I am looking forward to them being home for the summer too. I just need to get some things planned, so that they are not too bored. Better start working on that! ;)

In case you haven't heard, Janelle over at Sketch This blog posted her 50th sketch this week. Woohoo! Yay Janelle! To celebrate, she is giving away a few prizes for participating in this week's sketch. Make sure to head over there and join in on the fun. If your going to be creating this weekend anyway, might as well use the sketch for a chance to win a prize, huh?!

Here is my take on sketch #50.



I don't make baby cards too often, but it is nice to have one around just in case. These My Mind's Eye papers are just PERFECT for one too.


Also, I told you in my last post I was going to post my mini album I made using Pink Paislee goodies. So here it is.


This album is by Magistical Memories. It is called Fancy Frame Layered Book. Magistical Memories has lots of fun, shaped albums in chipboard and acrylic. You should definitely check them out.

I just wanted to let you all know how much I appreciate you coming by and leaving me such sweet comments. So, because you are all so sweet, how about I send out a RAK? Just leave a comment here by Monday, May 19th, at 12am CST, and I will randomly choose a winner on Tuesday and send out something fun. Sound good? :)

I hope you all have a great weekend. Thanks for stopping by!
