Good morning everyone.  I am sorry that it has been what feels like forever since I posted last.  Life always gets a little crazy in my household in June.  The kids have something special going on what seems like everyday at school (and don't forget dance recitals, choral concerts, track meets) and one of the bigs and two of the littles are playing lacrosse this year so we have at least 4 lacrosse games a week.  Add to that the college big home for a visit and the high school big being overwhelmed by finals and end of junior years stuff.  Then stir in some college visits and two parents with 4 jobs between them and you kinda get the chaos my life has been lately.  Well enough of that, what you came here was for my card.  Todays card is for the Papertake Weekly challenge .  This week is another fabulous sketch by our own Dawny P and our sponsor is Digital Delights .  I used one of Our Daily Bread Designs newest stamps sets, Scripture Series 1...

Good morning all.  I hope your weekend was wonderful.  I spent the long weekend camping with my family, we had a lot of fun!  Which goes right along with todays Papertake Weekly challenge which is entitled "Fun, Fun, Fun".  It is all about summer fun, think beach, swimming, BBQing, gardening, that sort of thing.  Though without the boots and wings, this image reminds me of my youngest daughter who loves nothing better then being surrounded by flowers. our sponsor this week: Make sure you pop over to the  team blog  and play along with us.
