Tulip Brigitta

Yes its true! I really made a card!LOL! I've actually had this card made about 2 weeks now and since its for the Sfytt for June and today is the last day I figured I might better go ahead and post it. Nothing like waiting til the last day!LOL!

I dont even know where to begin to update you on all the things that have been going on in the last few months so I just give you a few quick updates in no particular order. After a years fight with leukemia my Papa passed away in May. Madison was saved and baptized. We had a great week of VBS where I helped teach a class. My husband is no longer in the band. We have been spending June in the pool just about everyday. I've lost almost 20 lbs. As of now I've decided to give Pre-K another go for next year since this will be Alanas last year at our school (sniff sniff).

Okay now onto the card. Even though I've havent been stamping alot over the last few months I've still been visiting some of my favorite blogs. My blogs are like my coffee for most of you...my day just doesnt start right without it!LOL! Since I havent stamped in awhile I combined a few things I jotted down for inspiration to give me a little push. I loved how Lesa colored the tulips and her top with the dots in this card. I loved Amys and Susan's take on the sfytt so I used both as my inspiration. For my papers and colors I loved Linda's card here. Its fun to case your stamping friends! I love how this turned out and it was just what I needed to get my mojo going. Im still not sure how often I will post something weekly at least. Hope you're all having a great summer and I will do my best to stop by your blogs and leave some comments!

Shannon this is absolutely adorable.
You are looking fabulous with the weight loss, keep it up.
I too am sorry to be seeing your babies grow up so fast (sniff) cause that means I am really getting older, lol.
So glad the band thing is behind you 2, now maybe God can continue to work in your family.
Luv ya bunches.
