You're so Sweet!

Good morning!  I'm back...no really...I am really back. No more vacations for me for a few months! ;-)  I LOVE to travel, but I have to say I am exhausted! In between traveling, working and kids....I need a STAY-Cation at home!  My house is showing signs of neglect as well!  Needless to say, I am taking a bit of a breather!  I do have some plans in upcoming months, but not to much! 

I was so happy to say that this weekend I did get a little bit of crafting done!! yay me!  Mostly for upcoming DT's so you won't see to much coming from me beyond that! ;-(  I have a project I am FINALLY working on for my son. A few years back my mom and I wanted to learn how to quilt, so we took a class. We made a Log Cabin pattern and I LOVE my quilt. It came out so beautiful and it's so cozy. So cozy that my son has taken claim to it! He loves it and it is what he uses all the time for sleeping and cozying up on the couch. So I thought maybe I should make him his own quilt, since he obviously appreciates it. I am making it in more "dude" colors. So for the next few weeks, I am hoping to get a start on the quilt and wrap it up in between card making! 

Now on to the card!

                   


The image is from Mo Manning, she is sooooo adorable! I just love her dress! I have colored her with copic markers. The paper is from CTMH. The sentiment is SU. The border around her is a Magnolia doohickey border die.

Challenges:

Tuesday Throwdown - Summertime
Craft your Passion - Anything Goes
Sparkles forum - One for the Girls
Card Mad Digis - Girls (must use digi)
Mo's Digi Challenge - something sweet

Have a great day!
Tracy
