The blue background was from the back of a calendar, it felt almost like linen, very thick paper so I cut it out with the die and then sanded the sides, thought that gave it a neat touch.
My Favorite things -- Pirate Boy, image and sentiments colored w/markers
Spellbinders -- Lg. Deckled Rectangle, A2 matting basics A and Labels trio dies
DCWV -- Brown paper
I thought I would share a picture we took while our daughter and son in law were home. I liked all our smiles in this one but my hubby doesn't like his hair, this was before I cut it :)
Hope your year is off to a good start. Things are looking up around here, more roads are opening up again and the water seems to be receding in a lot of places.
Thanks so much for taking the time to stop by today.

Connie, your cards are such an inspiration. I have it in my mind in the morning to work on cards and then before I know it, the day is almost over. I need to prioritize things better.
