Would you ever actual use the ironing board in the laudry room?

These are the color options available for the Electrolux Front Load machines. Can you believe that black isn't an option??? What would you choose?

If you have any ideas that you want to send my way I would love to have them.

Won't be much crafty time this week as I begin an  "in town" mission trip. The 2nd Annual Cowtown Mission begins Sunday evening. It is over 100 youth and adult volunteers that will work on 16 homes in our community. There are roofs to repair, houses to paint, flooring to replace, and clean up galore. 

I'm so excited about "my house." It just happens to be the family home of some of the kids we mentor through Kids Hope USA. We would appreciate your prayers and thoughts as we work in 100 degree temperatures.

Can you believe Father's Day is almost here? Can you believe another year is half OVER???? OK I digress. The Papertrey Peeps June challenge issued by Cammie is to create a masculine project for the special men in our lives.

I have struggled to use the Get to the Point set but combined with the Framed sentiments I will use it much more. I really like using the Ad Sense die and the Limitless Layers dies together.Can you see the woodgrain impression plate detail?

I hope you get to spend time with the special men in your life this weekend.

This is the first of the June sketches for Verve. I love this sketch Amber.

The elegant flower from Everlasting Life is perfect for the oval frame.

Terri issued a challenge on the Papertrey Peeps blog for May that called for using flowers. Yes, I know May --  and now it is June. I'm a little behind. The library card is really the perfect backdrop for images. I like the feeling of layers that it gives.

I'm playing along with the Mojo Monday #194 sketch. This is a sketch that I will use again and again.

The butterflies make me happy! We are starting to see lots of the real thing in our garden. They float with such grace.

Enjoy your weekend!!

Another card using a Smooches stamp set. This time it is Birthday Buddies. Keeping it clean and simple today.

Do you have any of the new Smooches stamps yet? I finally had to order!!! The sets are so whimsical and playful. The doghouse is a free svg file that I downloaded here. Their eyes make me smile.

There was some discussion on the Papertrey Forum about the edger dies. I have been using the Edger #1 for gift card pockets. This shape has just enough curve to make it perfect.

I tried to post a picture on the forum but I never get it to work! :) I hope the visual helps someone.

Hi Everyone!!! Hope you are doing well. I feel like I haven't posted in forever. The blogger comment problems took the enthusiasm right out of my sails. You don't realize how "hooked" you are until you can't post!!! Glad it is fixed.
