Memorial Day Planting!!!

Hi everyone. Just want to say Happy Memorial Day !!! I have lots of cards I've been preparing for classes, but I don't have pictures. So I decided to show you my two pages I did of my holiday planting!

 The front yard is done in yellows and oranges, and shades of poppy with touch of PURPLE!. Love that new plant... but not sure exactly what it is yet. The man said it would get about 4 feet! YIPEEE. Hope to cover that ugly dryer vent.

The back yard is bright Pink Geraniums... they are double pink shades, dark and light, but it doesn't really show in these photos.

Have a Happy and Safe Holiday Weekend!

Puppy Shower... Really???

Hi there everyone! Seems like forever since I posted anything. I've been super busy and there's alot going on in my world right now, but I wanted to post "something" so I thought I'd share something pretty funny and a first for me.

My friend at work is getting a new puppy and she wants to throw a Puppy Shower! I thought she was kidding at first but ... NOPE... she's serious. She asked me to design an invitation she could send to her family and friends to combine a Bar-B-Q and a shower!! So here's what I came up with.

She even asked for the colors to be Brown and Pink. Too funny, right? I used the woodgrain background stamp on the dog house and also added some girly trim... the puppy's name is Ellie.

Instead of using the usual When: Where: Time: I thought I'd use some doggy commands. Come (date) - Sit (where) - Stay (time).  Hope she 'gets it" and  l I hope she likes my prototype.

 I think she just needed a reason to show off that cutie patootie puppy she'll be bringing home.
