OMG, is School Out YET???

Actually no, not for us.

But it sure feels like it should be!

High School son is out and 7th grade daughter has school until 12 tomorrow and 11 Tueasday, and then we are done.............................yes!

Of course, give me a week or so and I'll be crying about something. Spending too much time watching TV or on the internet (son), or constantly telling me how bored they are(daughter). Oh well, you can't win for losing.



Now back to DAY 7 of the 10 Day Challenge.

I listed another paper flower today. It's funny for me switching around all the time creating with either paper or fabric. And it causes double the mess in my house!!!

ut I haven't done any of these flowers in a while and when a couple of people express interest, it just doesn't make sense to only make a couple. And it's so much fun to see what they end up looking like in the end.

Now, I'm also going to share 2 items from other shops tonight since I skipped yesterday.
First up there's Laurie Mitchell's shop, jemily.
Her shop features some pretty handstamped items.
I love this card/gift bag combo. Wouldn't it be a nice package to bring a friend who just had a baby girl? And I just love the pink and green combo.


And next up is ThePaperFlowerShop. Sheila's shop is full of pretty cards and some, guess what, paper flowers. She has a great selection of wedding related cards, but I chose to highlight this colorful set of girly cupcake birthday cards. I sure would have liked to have these on hand when my daughter was younger. We were always in need of a card or 2 for birthdays!


So, that's it for day 7. It has been so fun getting to see the shops of other girls on the same greeting card team. It's amazing how varied the offerings can be.

See you tomorrow, with day 8.
Until then...
