Larry's retirement

My brother has always been the night owl. I'm the sleepy owl on the right! I'm definitely not a night person. When I saw this stamp I knew I had to have it. When I found the bark embossing plate the ideas just came together.  Tomorrow is his retirement party where all five of us (sibs) will be together...Yeah! I know it will be an amazing party and most of us are spending the night so we'll get together for breakfast before we head back home.

Inside it reads PARTY colored the golden brown on a white circle over a black circle.

Austin's sixth birthday

It's been forever since I've been in the Craft mood. Of course we have been working on the back yard for week now and it's really looking great. Added a pondless stream, water fall and gazebo. It's a great place for a coffee break or lunch. Here's my first card for 2012. Happy birthday Austin.
