Fun with a friend

Cass and Noah came up for a visit yesterday.  It was soooo much fun, we took the boys for a golf cart ride to go visit Jason's cousin's horse "Trooper", we went to check out what will be our new house when it is finished, we went swimming, and finally after the boys were kind of tired we got to the card making.  The boys played with toys and watched cartoons so we could card.  Noah was really well-behaved, Jack on the other hand was a big bully, but after a while they started getting along.  Cass took some super cute pics of us and the scrap table and Jack swimming.  The first time we met, we just talked and she stamped some images, the 2nd time we stamped and each made 2 cards and yesterday we made 5 cards, so next time we are shooting for 6 cards. haha

the messy craft table

our 5 cards we made.

This first card is pretty simple, it was a digi freebie, I think it is called cherry blossom, I am not sure. this paper is from Nana's Nursery Baby girl stack by DCWV. I colored the image with my watercolor pencils, and used my nesties to cut out the oval and the scalloped oval.

It's another digital freebie stamp, and that same cute Nana's Nursery paper stack and I used my, prisma color markers and stickles to color the image.  Cass made this bow and decided not to use it on her card so I did. I still cannot make bows even after giving me a tutorial and showing me in person , I still cannot make bows. Ugh I made this card for my hubby's cousin Heather, her birthday is coming up and it just made me think of her because before she became a Mom she used to hang out at bars with her friends and drink bud light so Heather this Bud's for you. haha

This card is for the Mojo Monday Blog Challenge and this wonderful paper is The Green Stack which is 70% recycled paper by DCWV.  I just had to get this stack after I saw some of the cards that Ivy made with the paper.  This image was rak'd to me by my good friend Heather.  I just love the rich blue color on this card.
