Life moves fast....

I love this quote from Ferris Bueller, it pretty much sums it all up: 

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."

This is the primary reason I stopped blogging regularly...It is hard to focus on what is happening in your daily life if all you are thinking about when it is flying by is how you are going to describe it in words.  This is probably why I am not a writer....I am more of a speaker with visual effects (photos).  That being said here is a little bit of what we have been up to over the past few months:

                                      

Baseball Playoffs

 

 

Dance Recital

 

 

Weekend Fishing trips

 

 

Dance Competitions

 

 

Walking at the Lake at Sunset

 

 

Summer Bible Camp

 

We are looking forward to more Dance Competitions, Football, a trip into Canada, and relaxing by the pool....

Remember:   Get out, enjoy life, don't let it pass you by.....

Peace & Love

So today I was sitting on the couch with mty sketch pad and I thought: I must be the world worse blogger! Then I remember, no you're not. You are a busy mom that doesn't want to lose the joy of creating and sharing.

I think that is why I have been making so many cards and gifts lately. Card sketches are easily able to be adjusted and one sketch can be used to create a variety of cards without feeling like your just repeating yourself. You can take one sketch and change out the paper, embellishments, and/stamped image and feel like you are getting a whole new look.

Here is an example of what I have been making lately:

Here is the base sketch I used:
