Coming down the stairs

They are probably on their way to church, and Dad took the opportunity to snap a picture of Mom and the girls in their best attire . . . .  some things never change :-) My entry for the stairs challenge at Three Muses.

Love is in the air

Love is in the air everywhere I look around, love is in the air every sight and every sound, and I don't know if I'm being foolish, don't know if I'm being wise. But it's something that I must believe in, and it's there when I look in your eyes . . . . my entry for the whimsical, quirky, humorous challenge at Three Muses this week. The smiling moon and airmail stamp images from Graphics Fairy - linking to Brag Monday.

A is for Apple

When I think of summer - I think of fruit, although you can find apples and most fruit all year round these days. I simply love that fresh smell in an apple orchard early in the morning in summer. My entry for Theme Thursday's summer challenge. This is also the second alphabet flash card, you can find the other one here - I am planning to do a whole set.

Owl's serenade

I thought the Three Muses challenge this week was birds, and when I checked just now, it says exotic bird, well this is my entry for the challenge and I do think owls are very special birds, which makes them exotix, right? :-)

Leopard spots and roses

When I saw the pink and brown challenge over at Theme Thursday, my first thought was hot chocolate and fluffy pink marshmallows- yum!!! I love the rich chocolate brown script of this card and I thought it pairs so well with the dusky pink roses - I decided on the leopard spots as a background for that touch of whimsy.

Friday freebie - butterfly takeout box

I love to make these little takeout boxes to package small gifts, it also works well for giving favors at a party. Click on the image to download, I had some computer problems and was unable to make a pdf - sorry. Hope your weekend is great!

I had the pleasure of spending a few days in Paris in 1990, my memories still inspire me . . .  I hope to go back one day! My entry for the written word Three Muses challenge. The lovely cupid image, the Eiffel tower card, the butterfly and the Paris tag are all from the Graphics Fairy, what would I do without her!? - linking to Brag Monday.
