I did make today's card for our niece, Ally. She turns eight this weekend! She'll love the pink, but as I look at this I should have used a sentiment more appropriate for her age. Woops. The colors were inspired by this week's Play Date Cafe. I thought I had some hot pink gems, but only had the lighter ones. So...it's close, but not quite the same color splash. The background was created with a Practicing Creativity set. Hope your week gets off to a great start and here's hoping your lucky and have today off! The boys do...but I'll be heading off to work!

Hope Your Day is Fabulous
Happy Monday! Other than a couple of errands and a little to and from for Ryan to volunteer at a homeless shelter with our church, I stayed put most of the day. It was certainly welcome! I even had a few hours when there were no boys (or hubby :)!) in the house. I went down to create, but actually spent most of the time organizing my craft room a bit more. And...decided to sell quite a few things. If you're interested, please feel free to visit this page.
