Making cards plus this and that

 It’s the middle of June and heating up around here. And I expect as summer arrives and lingers it will only get hotter. But we don’t mind. Air conditioning is a marvelous thing to use.  We’re getting out in the world a bit more now that the governor has let us remove our masks. I wonder how long it will last. Was it for the tourist money or because of vaccinations? Time will tell. 

Mostly our outings are grocery or medical related. But occasionally we head to different venues like farmers markets.  Always fun to check out and buy locally.  Went to Barnes and Nobles!  First time in a long while...certainly the first time since we've been in Tallahassee.  It was nice thumbing through our magazines,  drinking coffee.  The simple things are fun, don't ya think?

Last Sunday we had brunch over at Sonsearae and Chris' house.  He cooked us some yummy buttermilk pancakes. Some bacon, warm maple and blueberry compote was served....I had the blueberries!  Afterwards Sonsearae and I went to a farmers market in her neighborhood then went to Costco.  The guys watched movies or napped. 

                                    Handmade cards because:

No one displays an email on the mantle or

Shows off a tweet on the fridge or

Saves a Facebook post in a box of treasures

Total for the year, 204 cards made

Stampin’Up! Has this beautiful new paper, Hand Penned. I love the colors in this collection. You’ll be seeing more as I work my way through the paper

These fold down from the top, no stamping involved! Just the pretty paper

This is actually a pocket card, the thanks part slides out to write your message

                                      Simple but gorgeous!

 

The inside has this special pop out . I need to add some white paper to write on

All is right in our world
