Floral Thank You {and Marcel's Field Day}

It's the middle of the week!  Yahoo.  I'm off tomorrow to take Ryan on his second college visit. We'll be heading over to Ohio University to see the campus. Hard to believe that this time next year he'll have graduated (and yes...I will keep saying this for the next year!)

This card is the third card I made for the teacher gift sets.  Man was the MISTI awesome for lining up the double stamps on those tiny little leaves.  I never would have gotten it lined up without it.  I love the fun, bright vibrant colors.

Last week I popped out of work for a bit to catch Marcel's field day.  We weren't sure if it was going to rain that day but it turned out that it was beautiful.  His only request, "Could you bring me a cookie mom?"  I brought him a big M&M cookie.  His response, "Perfect. You know me so well." He cracks me up.  He was all smiles all day.


Hope your week is moving along well!

your card is a summer delight! And what a fab T-shirt Marcel is wearing, cool colours and splashes-this has to inspire a card!

I agree with Sandi, I see a card in that shirt! Love your sweet sprays of flowers under the sentiment. This is a pretty card Lynn!

I am also loving those colors, Lynn ... and Marcel's shirt - does that say "my voice, my choice" ? Fabulous! I'm kinda lovin' your polka dots, too!

What a wonderful memory page, Lynn. I guess we're all enthralled with the tie dye shirts. ;) Your card is one of the loveliest I've seen. So delicate and bright.

I just love those sweet flowers in all the colours you chose. You got a Misit? Do you really love it? Worth the money? These photos are priceless. I would've gone for the cookie too!

Oh, I have wonderful memories of our track and field days with my boys! I miss those special times! Love your beautiful card, Lynn! So fresh and bright! ♥

Gorgeous card - love the colour combo and the photos are great! Glad you were able to sneak out of work to visit. Is the Misti worth it? Been checking it out and not sure I would use it enough to warrant the cost.

Love your crisp and clean design. The simple, colorful flowers are a perfect complement to the bold sentiment!

What a sweet and happy card...super love the colors.
Looks like field day was a success! I remember those days:)
Enjoy the college visits...the time seriously flies by, doesn't it? Next thursday is when my baby boy graduates from high school...sigh.

Gorgeous card, and love the pictures of Marcel's field day. That cookie does sound good. Good luck on your college visits. Enjoy them. They were some of the best times I spent just with my oldest. Of course, the bad part is now she is going to go away to one of those places, and I am left at home. I am really looking forward to doing the same sorts of trips with my younger daughter.
