when things are all said and done...

Here is how my Friday morning can be summarized so far... 1. Thank you everyone who participated and took the time to comment on my blog and all of the Creations by AR design team blogs. Always exciting to "meet" other crafters and read all of the kind comments. I was able to only pick one winner from my blog and that would be CYNDY! Please email Adela your template pick when you get a chance to browse the shop :) 2. My shop will be filled with many new items on Sunday evening if you wanted to pop in around 7 pm EST. Still working on a few new flower designs and tags-o-plenty to share...

3. My little men have begun their spring break and I am already feeling as if I am on a battle field. Soon we will be off swimming today and hope that will be plenty as we spent all evening out yesterday. COFFEE!?!

4. I am in love with this color at the moment...

Would fill my house from floor to ceiling with both these colors if I could.

5. For all my friends who need a little pick me up today, a little card I made using several new lines from Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker ... Sometimes we need a little bright yellow to keeps us going, right?

6. Finally, a giveaway! This comes from my mother's shop on Etsy. Her new handmade flower accessories are amazing! All you have to do is head on over to here shop HERE and come back to share your favorite item by leaving a comment on this post by Tuesday March 29th at midnight and I will pick a winner for this headband...Off to find my swimsuit and hope that there are only a handful of people with the same idea today. Not one for strutting my stuff around a pool...yuck! Thank you for allowing me to share with you a little color and see you back here on Monday.

Happy spring...
