Today...we're leaving on a jet plane...don't know when we'll be back again! Just kidding...my mum and I leave for England this afternoon. It will be a quick trip for me...just one week before I'm back home, but my mum will stay for a couple of weeks. It has been way to long since I've seen nana and I can't wait. But wow will I miss Pat and the boys! A week is definitely the longest I've ever been away from them. So, I'm leaving lots of little notes for them and a few little treats. I've pre-posted several blog posts, but unless I can easily find wi-fi access won't be blog surfing much. So I'll see you all soon!
And before I go, two quick cards. First is a PaperSmooches inspired card for the current Jay Gee's Nook Challenge. I love the color inspiration and the stamps played to this perfectly!
And second...a quick card for a co-worker. Perfect colors for a masculine card inspired by this week's ColourQ Challenge.
PS Do you like how Marcel snuck into this picture? Can you tell he's saying "cheese"? :0

Have a wonderful trip Lynn - I am sure your Nana is very excited about you both visiting.
Both your cards are wonderful, but I particularly like the first. The soft colour palette is so pretty - love that ribbon too. Thanks so much for joining us at Jay Gee's :)
Marcel's face is hilarious! I was wondering what he was saying - makes perfect sense that it's cheese! I hope you have a wonderful time in jolly old England with mom and nana. Sounds like a great time!
Love the patterned paper effect on your first card and the yummy ribbon - you always have the best ribbon! And the second cad is awesome - you rock those one layer masculine cards. :)
Safe travels Lynn and hope you've packed your brolly we've got a dose of the April showers at the moment although that could all change next week!!!
Gorgeous cards..love those summery flowers and leaves...you're really working those PS stamps, love the masculine card too :0)

Love the pattern you stamped on the first card. Just perfect stamp and color placement. I can never seem to pull that off.
