Happy Monday…and yes, it’s HAPPY. My middle boy is heading home from DC after finishing his first year of law school, and my daughter is coming home to do laundry tonight so she can make it ’til graduation on Saturday. Two of my puppies all to myself tonight! My oldest flies in on Wednesday with the hubby so the whole family will be together! I wanted to play along with ColorQ #239 and Freshly Made Sketches #134 over the weekend but found myself getting distracted every time I sat down to craft- you know, deciding to clean and organize the craft space, getting stuff unpacked for the kids for the summer, and a hundred other things. So, I finally got something done this morning- just a quick little note for someone special someday.

I love the dry embossing & how you used the colors & sketch! Beautifully done! Enjoy your kiddos, Cindy!
Thanks, Greta. I could not find my scallop die to cut out the embossed lace, bummer!
I love the CAS look of this card! It is a happy day when your nest is full with your children. Enjoy! Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches!
Thanks, Amy. This will be the first time all of them will be at one of their graduation days! Every other graduation had one who could not come with a work schedule or a finals week. So, I am ecstatic- just got to remember to get some pics!
This is so pretty.; Love the embossing and pretty colors. Great job.
Thanks, JoAnn. I do love my tea!
Just adorable! Great way to use that Kind & Cozy set! Thanks for using the CQC colors too!
Thanks, LeAnne. I love the gingham circle in that set.
This is such a special card indeed. Love the little pearl details! Glad you joined us this week at FMS!
Thank you, Jennifer. I took a photo of the card without the pearls and it was blah- put the pearls on, and it made a big difference.
Super sweet card! Enjoy the family time…..it is precious!
Thank you, Linda. It is wonderful to have the kids home but maybe not their numerous bags and stuff all over the place…lol!

Thank you, Jen. I do like that delicate designs EF.
So pretty Cindy – love the embossed border and nice to see something other than flowers lol! Enjoy your weekend with your family!
