This is a fun card to give someone that you love and want to spend the rest of your life with. I went for darker colors to blend in with the basket.

Every now and then, we find the need to apologize for something we've said or done. I actually have hissed (in jest, of course) to a friend or two upon occasion. I picked it up from my sassy cat :-) I had a lot of fun putting this together even that there wasn't much coloring. I had bought this paper pad and never used it so it seemed like a good time to play with some of the fun pages.

I love this card and it does make me happy. It was fun and fast to color. I used a bright yellow background stock to pull out the yellow colors in the chick.

Here's another of the Bebunni adorable bunnies. This one I fussy cut the baby letters using 2 different sheets of paper. I stamped the words on the paper and then cut them out. Some people don't like fussy cutting but I find it relaxing. It must go back to my childhood when a friend and I would cut out paper dolls from pattern books. I tried to stick to gender neutral colors.

This is my future Mother's Day card that I'll be sending out or delivering in person to my mom. She's a cat lover just like me so it's very fitting. I chose white cats since she used to have one and I rarely get an opportunity to do just white (I'm a black cat fan and those are even rarer for me to work on).

Great teamwork is happening between these adorable bears retrieving honey. The inside of the card has a bee that I used from Lawn Fawn and a Winnie The Pooh saying. A perfect way to let a friend know that you appreciate them being there for you or saying that you are there for them.

I discovered a new rubber stamp company out of the UK with many adorable designs. The stamps are a little tricky to use since they do not stick to a block. I ended up applying some Paper Cement to the block and then was able to attach the stamp. I also had to shorten the banner die. I did the full size cut and then just moved the die in slightly and ran only the tips through my Cricut.
