Jolly Spring Cheer

A coworker of the hubby's is getting married next month and I made up the card today.

I didn't really have a plan when I started but I'm glad the way it turned out! I knew I wanted it to be spring colored but not overly feminine and I got to use some fun sparkly paper and even a cute purple button!

I've been making cards with the Cricut machine I got for my birthday for months now, but I nearly always forget to snap a pic before I send out the crafts! Now I'm trying to nourish some self-esteem and record my work :)

Earlier this weekend I made two identical cards for our parents that included slits for inserting a photo and felt pretty darn handy!

I'll try to remember to get a picture of the Father's Day cards I made before I send those out next month... One of the Cricut cartridges is "Camp" themed and had a handsome eagle I just had to make!

And I mean "Camp" as in summer camp, not the comedic, 'camp' style! Although, I suppose that qualification is completely subjective!

And some further spring cheer that I encountered while walking with Fio on Sunday!

We also stumbled upon a GINORMOUS roly poly bug but I didn't think to grab my phone before I escorted him off of the sidewalk. I moved that roly poly, a worm, and watched two centipedes along maybe twenty-feet of sidewalk on the way home from the library.

A lovely afternoon :)
