This is my Grandson Preston with his handcrafted Turkey hat.

I am so grateful for him, my granddaughter Harper and grandson Cole.

I am truly blessed. Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

I loved making this card with the Acorny thanks stamp set. I was inspired by a card on Pinterest.

I love the color combination of pool part and early expression.

The Six Sayings hostess set is so versatile.

Fall Birthday Card for Mom...

I saw this on Pinterest.  It was inspired by mytanglecottage.com.
I made this for my Mom's 93rd birthday.  We are having lunch with her tomorrow along with my brother and sister.  Glad she is still here.

My newest Stamper….No Bones about it

My granddaughter, Harper, almost 4 wanted to make a card for her Dad.
She picked out the stamp, the colors and the placement and she did a great job.
She is a quick learner.  The next generation of Stampers!
Love that smile.
