New House

Finally! I am back. It has been such a busy time and each time I think I have a minute something comes up. Let's see, since I was last here, we helped move our daughter and her family to a beautiful new home. We went to Kansas City to meet with a cousin of my husbands whom we have never met. What a wonderful day that was! We celebrated our youngest grandson, Aaron's First Communion, we rushed to the hospital when our daughter was in a car accident, plus worked full time and did the routine every day things. No wonder I haven't been here! Things will settle down soon and after only 20 more days, I will be retired. Yeah!! Anyway, the reason you are here is not to hear all of this but to see my card. I made a card for the kids when they moved into their home. This is sort of how their house looks and sort of the colors of it. Well, you really have to use your imagination to see this, haha. The stamp is from a stamp set made by PaperTrey Ink titled Boards and Beams and the paper is also from PaperTrey. I colored with my Copic Markers and the fence is from Taylored Expression I think. It was cut from a friends die a year ago so am not positive. Until next time, Happy trails to you... Sheri
