Mornin' y'all! I managed to get a bit more sleep last night so I am hoping to get some things done today in my craft room. I actually have two scrapbook layouts that I'm working on...I was doing the wedding album earlier this year but decided to take a break from that.
Anyway, I have a card to share with the epitome of Texas wildflowers, here it is:
I had to dust off Wisteria Wishes, which retired last year. I'm entering this at Retro Rubber:
I did the top row, with die cuts (Countryside Corners, new), gems (Foiled Gems, not new), and spring (bluebonnets). I've had Wisteria Wishes for about a year and a half and I wish I had played with it more when it was current. Doesn't stop me from breaking it out for challenges now ;) but it is SUCH a neat bundle.
I'm also entering this at the Paper Players:
Bluebonnets are THE spring flower in Texas and I tried to keep it CAS, though the main image panel is pretty large. So maybe it's CAS-plus?
This card will be going to my husband's grandmother along with a picture of Ryan:
They're all fancy with school pictures here, I could choose from like 8 different backgrounds, but I had to do the bluebonnets since this is his only school year in Texas.
That's it for me today, time for me to get Ryan off to school and then I have a yoga class at the Y. Cheers!

Stamps: Wisteria Wishes
Ink: Tahitian Tide, Parakeet Party, Starry Sky
Paper: Starry Sky, Thick Basic White

Oh, Christy! What a perfect card to send with this picture of Ryan! His great-grandmother will love it! This is such a gorgeous card. It would be so cool to have the picture and the card framed together. Thank you so much for sharing with The Paper Players this week!
