here is hubbys valentine card that I made for him while at my Mother in Laws house today. Since hubby is sick and she wanted me over there to help finished making 40 cards for 2 classrooms. we almost have them done. here the paper used is by K&Comapany. ribbon is unknown as my MIL had the ribbon. I used the scallop punch by stampin up. for me this says it all for my husband. I think he will like it. also I will be giving him one of those mailboxes that I will be altering with the card inside and some candy also. I will sho you the altered mailbox as soon as I get it done.

Nieces and Nephew

here is a layout I did of our nieces and nephew. the pic you see here was a christmas card but i cut it so just the pics are on here. pattern paper is Heid Grace designs. the daisies used on here are bought in a bunch at dollar genral and then I just just took the flowewrs off the stem and there you go, oodles of flowers to use on a page. I used buttons in the middle of the flowers. for me a simple page.
