This past weekend, I had my very own Friday night scrapfest. I started about 7:30 that evening and scrapped until 2:00 Saturday morning and I had a wonderful time. I don't know what they put in Dr. Pepper, but let me tell you, it gave me the boost I needed; I'm sure the Pepperidge Farm cookies helped. I was pretty wired after that, so though I knew at midnight that it was time to stop; the creativity wouldn't stop and I hate to waste creativity.

I needed to make a card for a friend this week, so I thought I'd use the CardPatterns' sketch for the week. I really like the sketch and I was pleased with the way the card turned out. I hope the card lifts my friend's spirit.

This is what my son's loves about visiting relatives in the country; he has plenty of open rode to ride in the dune buggy and on the ATV, with wild abandonment. He loves speed and there's never a thought of danger on his mind. I only hope that when he's riding, he here's my low voice in his conscience, telling him to slow down and to be careful. I told him this was going to be the summer of 'no emergency room visits'. We'll see how that plan plays out.

I created this layout about a month ago, for a class I was teaching and was waiting for just the right girly pictures. So what better girly pictures, then me with my mom and sisters. We're all very girly girls. 
What great paper, black and white, and what better to coordinate with it, then pink. I was playing around with some stamps last night and here's what I designed. I am going to get a lot of use from these stamps this summer. Now that school is out, and I'm no learning about the Civil War, water erosion, wave patterns and formation and right angles, or be the homework warden, I have so much more time to play. I think I was looking forward to the summer break almost as much as my son was. 
Here is my take on the 2S4U sketch for the card showdown. I wasn't real sure about what I wanted to do with this sketch, but as I started playing, the card just came together. I think it's very festive and summery; I like the way it turned out.
Thanks for stopping by.
