Week 330: BOUQUET Bokeh Dots, Vibrant Vases Stampin Up



 My heart is overwhelmed with happiness to know that my adult kids love spending time together and with me.   My son came home yesterday and spent time with his sister and brother-in-law and then today he went to the store with me so he could search for a set of legos, now let me say these little lego characters are in bags and are not marked, so you have to feel the bag and try to guess what you are getting, it's a bit of a gamble, but my goodness he is quite talented at doing this.  And to make my day he purchased me the Wizard of Oz characters.  Of course we weren't 100% sure until we got home and opened up the bags.  But I should never doubt his ability to do this.  In fact, He said that he will find the Lion for me too, so I will have the whole set.   I was almost in tears.. I love my little legos from him, the thought he put into searching for them and that he wanted to get them especially for me  makes me feel so blessed.   I am sharing a picture of them.  Aren't they cute?

This card I made today reminds me of what I want my kids to always remember.  They are loved and cherished.    
I will submit it to the challenge at: 
The stamp sets featured in today's card are:
Stampin Up:  Bokeh  Dots
Stampin Up: Vibrant Vases
The sentiment (verse) on the inside of the card is a single stamp I purchased from a local store.

Challenge #96 Happy Valentines Day, Pizza Puns

 My dad is a huge fan of puns, so I thought I'd make his Valentine card an extra "punny pizza" card.  I think he will get a kick out of it.  I really like how the crust turned out.  I didn't even have to bake it. 😉
  
 I'm going to submit this card to the challenge at:
The theme is:  "ANYTHING GOES"

SSC197 PRETTY IN PINK~Sure Do Love You, Heart Happiness, Stampin Up

 This is the first card I made in my newly renovated stamp room.  Which  just happened to be our daughter's room.  I'm hoping my back will get use to the floors.  Even though we had a contractor come in and fix the floors they are still not completely level.   However it is warmer in here then out on the porch.   I just realized that I will have to also update my stamp room pictures on my blog now, hopefully that will happen this week.
I made this card for the challenge at:

PP427~Sure Do Love You, Swan Lake, Bloomin' Love, Stampin Up

 This is the second card I made in my newly renovated stamp room.  It was our daughter's bedroom, but after we hired a contractor to fix the floors in our home, I thought I'd try again to work in this room.  It's still not completely level, and  hence hurts my back, just hoping I will get use to it.      
Any ways I made this card for the challenge at:
My first time with a successful mirror image card.  Most exciting. 

The stamp sets featured in today's card are:

Stampin Up: Sure Do Love You
Stamping Up: Swan Lake

RRCB103 Heart Happiness Stampin Up, Happy Valentines Day, Dove Chocolates

 Well I made 15 of these darling little Valentine cards for family and friends.   I might add a couple to my Etsy Shop too.   Right off the bat I must admit that this lovely  Heart Happiness Stampin up set is Just One year old 2018.  I wouldn't dare even say that it is retro,  so if my cards don't qualify I understand.  I thought It was an older set for some reason, but it was the only heart that would work with my heart punch, so I went ahead and used it. I wanted to cruise along in making so making cards.  
I will submit this card to  the challenge at:

RRCB 103




On the inside of my Valentine Card is a place for a Dove chocolate heart, but all I had on hand was dove, caramel chocolates.  I'm shocked I still had some in the house.  I LOVE chocolate and caramel.
