Thankful Thursdays are my opportunity to "Up My Gratitude." The goal is to make at least one card a week to thank someone. I LOVE when you play along by linking up below.

Hi Everyone!!! Hope your week is going well. After my mission trip last week, I have lots of people that I need to send a thank you. My card relies on pretty pattern paper for the design. It is a Fancy Pants paper pad called Summer's End. 


On the orange paper I used the Text Impression Plate. If you enlarge the picture you can see the texture.

I got to use a jackhammer last week. It was fun but I needed a little help from the guys.


Have a great week friends!! ~Rhonda

Hi Friends, No card today but I hope you keep reading. it's currently early in the morning and I'm in a room with wall to wall mattresses and cots. 50 High School girls! I am blessed beyond measure to be able to share in their lives. If you have teenagers or the little ones, HUG them tight. it is a different world from my teen years. So much brokenness. If you feel that gentle nudge prompting you to connect with a teen, I pray you ACT! We are helping seniors, etc with painting, wheelchair ramps, basketball goals for a community, and many more. I hope it your kids get the opportunity to do something like this you send them. Have a wonderful week. ~Rhonda

Today is the day! I'm FIFTY -   5 zero  -  50!!! I'm having a birthday bash tonight to celebrate. Want to join the party??? I wish ALL of you could come. 

We are catering fajitas and enchiladas. Opening the wine and eating LOTS of dessert. Just not sure how I'm going to sneak out to order the new Papertrey goodies! but it's my party and I'll do what I wanna!!! wink

So much happening around here. My parents will be here for my birthday and then we get to celebrate Father's Day too. Next week I am an Adult Leader for the High School Mission trip! Have a great weekend friends!!! Busy times ahead. ~Rhonda

Geezzzz Thursdays are sneaking up on me. I can't believe how fast the weeks are going by. Today's card is ALL about the background. I used TCW 6x6 Mini Love Beads template and then started spraying the Mister Huey's mists. It was so much fun.


The colors I used were Taxi (yellow), Boss Lady (pink), Passport (gray), and the Shine. I tried to get the shine in the picture. Where I sprayed heavily it made the coolest texture.


The little frame and sentiment are from PTI's Framed Out #1 AND #2. I appreciate everyone leaving me some great tips for using the mists on a previous post. I'm going to try them all.

Have a great week! ~Rhonda

Life is sooooo busy!!! Is it crazy at your house?? My card is based on Dawn Easton's card that I saw on pinterest (not to busy to spend some time there) Wink!!!

My card is based on the MOJO Monday #242 sketch and I'm also playing along with PTI's MIM - mixing pattern paper.

Hug your babies ladies!! They grow up too fast!! Rhonda

I almost didn't get a Thank You card completed this week!!! It just would NOT come together. I started pulling pieces that I had left over from my Mom's Mother's Day card and it worked.

Love the PTI Pattern Paper packs! Larger than Life dies with framed out #3 complete the look. Mister Huey mists can cover lots of things - just saying! :)



Hope you are having a great week Friend!! Thanks for stopping by. ~Rhonda

I received my Studio Calico 35 MM kit in the mail. This was my 1st time to order one. Lots of pretty paper and embellishments. My card is inspired by the Mojo Monday #240 sketch. I moved things around just a little. 




I am loving my Mr. Huey mists (water cooler on the tag). I used stamps from PTI - Tweet Talk and Trendy Tree Tops.

Thanks so much for stopping by! ~Rhonda

Hope you had a wonderful weekend. ~Rhonda
