"My Last Mother's Day Card For 2018"

Hello to Everyone on this Wednesday, May 2, 2018.
Are you ready for Cinco De Mayo?  It's this Saturday.
Are you ready for Mother's Day?  It will be celebrated on May 13th.
Many are skipping towards the end of the month  for  Memorial Day.  Usually this is the beginning of summer, school closing and  beach time.  Most students have done as much as they expect to do for the school year.  It's time to take test initiated by the state.  I'm familiar with Virginia but not the other states.  Around in my part of the country, we hear "SOL's" during this time of the year. 
But let's slow down for a bit.  We will give MOM her day of celebration before we closed those schools down for the summer.  Yes we can and yes we will.
I made my last Mother's Day card for this year.  Please read this correctly..."for this year, 2018".  Seven sisters and one daughter who are mothers, account for a lot of paper and die cutting as well as embellishments.   Some  have special boxes made so they can go through the mail without getting damaged.
Take a look:

Mother knows best and you better believe it.  
Thanks for always supporting my work.  You are a blessing to me.  I enjoy seeing and reading your comments.  Thanks for leaving the love.

Sending you a hug and love,

"Friendship Card Using Spellbinders Dies"

Hello friends, visitors, followers and viewers.
Welcome to Monday, April 16, 2018.  It is the day before tax deadline day.  Hopefully if you're not ready you will file an extension to keep the government from coming after you.
I've been receiving a lot of advertisements for tax free shopping from many craft companies.  It is so inviting but I'm going to hold my ground and not buy anything.  I'm running out of space to put anything in my craft area and I can't work in chaos.
I've been working on Mother's Day cards.  I put that aside for today and did something for "friendship".    We meet people.  We retain people for friends, and often we have to let them know that they make/made a difference in our lives.  Words are good but little trinkets and cards can be saved  for memories.
Here is the "Friendship" card I made for your view:


Enabler's List:
cardstock: PaperandMore white; Recollections green
DP: Hunkydory; Prima Lavender
dies: Spellbinders Nestabilities Decorative Elements Floral Ovals; Spellbinders Paper Arts Curved Borders Two
Embellishments; 49 Market Garden Seeds Sandcastle handmade flowers; purple tulle
Sentiment: It's the friends we meet along the way that help us appreciate the journey.

Thanks for your viewing time.  I appreciate your comments, votes and likes.  Please come again.  I always enjoy knowing you made a visit.

Sending you a hug and love,
Lois
