Mother's Day for Great!

Today's card is the Mother's Day Card I made for my husband's grandmother.  Instead of the kids referring to her as Great Grandma, her name is just Great!  How cool is that?  I want to be special enough someday where I am referred to solely as Great.  Has to make a person feel pretty special!
Again, the digistamp is one by my favorite, MelonHeadz.   I used my Bic Mark It markers to color again.  I used a few challenges as inspiration for this card.  They were
This is another one of the three Mother's Day cards she made.  Turned out pretty cute!

Happy Mother's Day from my Baby Girl

I can't believe that my baby girl turned SEVEN today!  
How is that even possible?  
I am not going to lie, I am not a fan of this growing up stuff!

My daughter is a big crafter, too.  Sometimes she has a bit of a problem not going over board with the extras, but I think as she gets older that will get better.  I printed her out some digistamps to color and use on her projects, and here is one of the cards she came up with.
She drew the crab.  I thought he was pretty gosh darn cute.  I told her about a special challenge over at Sentimental Sundays.   They are having the usual type of challenge (For the women in your life), but they are also adding a Crafting with a Child Challenge.  Thus, her card will be entered in her very first challenge, and let me just tell you how excited she is!

Here is my entry for the challenge.

It is a Mother's Day card for a very special Aunt.  She doesn't have kids, but she is the mom to several cute puppies.  I like to send her a card from the puppies and I each year.  She loves Cherished Teddies, too.  So, when I saw this image from May Brit, I knew it was just perfect!

Hang around because I will be posting more of the cards my baby girl made.  I am anxious to see the one she made for me!
Thanks for stopping by!

Another Mother's Day Card

Wow!  What a morning to wake up in America, right?  
God bless our military men and women!  Certainly, praying for continued protection for our entire nation as I am sure the retaliation will be fierce. 
Okay, onto lighter stuff!
Today's card is another Mother's Day Card, which I broke out some Stampin' Up Supplies for.  
Isn't this flower so cool?  I got it at the Fun Frugal Crafter.  I colored it with my Stampin' Up Markers.  The card base is Stampin' Up, as well.  I am not sure if you can see the clear button in the center, but that is from Stampin' Up, too.  The rest of the paper came from the tower o' scraps.

I have decided to enter the card in the following challenges...
Card Makin' Mamas  -  Card for a Loved One Challenge
Cute Card Thursday  -  Challenge 162 Use a Sketch

Mother's Day Card Disney Style

Hello!
Sorry for the delay in posting.  Conner has been sick again, which really cuts into my craft room time.  I tell you I am really thinking of having him live in a bubble.  I cannot keep that kid health for anything.  I think we are dealing with serious allergies, but apparently, he is still too young to really determine what he is allergic to.  His test results came back inconclusive. I was really hoping they would provide us with some answers, but it looks like that won't be happening.

Okay, I am not going to lie.  I did not realize Mother's Day was this weekend.  I have been so focused on Amelia's birthday that I never really looked at the calendar.  Needless to say, I am behind getting my Mother's Day cards made, and since that is the case, speed is now incredibly important. 

So, here is the first one I've put together.  Let me put out there that my mother-in-law's favorite color is yellow and you can kind of guess who her favorite Disney character is.



I broke out my Expression for this one.  It felt kind of strange using it almost.  It has been so lonely.  However, since I made the time cut off I am going to enter this card in the 

Thanks for looking.  Hopefully, I will have more to post in the next few days because I have to get them in the mail!
