the Paper Players is my cup of tea!

Hello!  The week is almost over!  Woohoo!  Jacob has another school visit tomorrow (Thursday) but only for an hour and a half.  He goes for a full day on Friday...I'm quite excited!  He's not too sure about it now. I guess we shall see how it goes.

Okay so I had received as a gift (from my fabulous Mommy) some PTI stamps and I couldn't wait to break into these little gems.  My neighbour Christine is lovely and she took me out for tea after school drop off yesterday.  She had an exhausting day yesterday and I wanted to repay the favour for her and thank her/invite her out for tea!

I started with the colours from The Paper Players and combined them with the sketch from Retro Sketches!  Love, love, love both of these challenges!

Supplies:
Cardstock: Whisper White, Basic Gray, Baja Breeze, Basic Black
Stamps: Heart to Heart #1
Ink: Basic Gray, Baja Breeze
OTher: Argyle Embossing Folder, Basic Rhinestones, Baja Breeze Seam Binding, Heart to Heart #1 Die, Dimensionals

Thanks for stopping by!
Have a wonderful day!!

Teacher Time

Hello!  I hope you've had a great weekend!  For all the mom's out there, I hope you had a wonderful Mother's Day.  I had thought we would be spending Mother's Day at the Magic Kingdom in Florida but instead my boys chose to spend the day at Sea World!  I must say (especially to any Florida readers) I LOVE Florida!  I am totally in love with Palm Trees!  Florida's vegetation is incredible and so unlike anything we have here in Canada!  The staff at our hotel were wonderful and super friendly!  The parks we went to were super clean and action packed!  What a great weekend!

That aside...I was supposed to be getting started on Father's Day cards today but I was totally unmotivated.  I had an idea in my head for a card for Caleb's Teacher this year.  My oldest son has the most wonderful Kindergarten teacher!  She has done over and above what is required for these kids and has a group of kids who adore her!

Anyhow, I thought I'd made her a little blackboard card for his teacher.  I used a set from Papertrey Ink that I love for doing Teacher's cards.

Supplies:
Cardstock: Soft Suede, Whisper White, Basic Black
Ink: Versamark, Real Red, Wild Wasabi, Soft Suede
Stamps: Papertrey Ink
Other: White Embossing Powder, Real Red Grosgrain Ribbon, Staple, Dimensionals, Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder

Thanks for stopping by today!
Check back tomorrow for my Mojo Monday card!
