Summer Break

Hello and Happy Friday!!!

Spring is finally upon us and that means summer is just around the corner.  Children get a break from school, barbecues, 4th of July celebrations, gardening and maybe even a road trip!  So many fun things to do!  With that being said our wonderful boss, Sue, has let the design team off for the summer.  Oh, I am sure we will all still find some time to craft but we can also spend time enjoying the lazy days that summer brings.  You can always browse the M5D store and make your wish lists!  CLICK HERE  One can never have too many digital sets!!!  *Ü*

Today I used a set called Petunia by McMahon Five Designs.  I really have the gardening bug and I just LOVE planting all different colors of petunias (especially the salmon/coral ones)!  Hope you like today's creation!  By the way....McMahon Five Designs has been around for FIVE glorious years....Happy Anniversary!!!  I am glad to be part of the team!  Thanks, Sue!!!

Birthday Boy!

Hello and Happy Friday to you!

Today is Flashback Friday over at M5D.  Don't forget to sign up for the newsletter on the M5D page.  You don't want to miss all of the new releases and it is always fun to see which older sets the design team chooses to use every other Friday!  *Ü*

Today is my baby boys 17th birthday!  Every year on his special day he likes to pay a visit to the BEST ice cream shop in Stillwater, MN.....Nelson's !!!  This was my inspiration for making his birthday card.  I used an old set by Draw Me A Daydream called Boyscream.  The servings scooped out at Nelson's are absolutely HUMUNGOUS and I thought the ice cream cone in this set was just perfect!
