Happy Saturday my friends. We're up and at it early this morning. Ryan and Jonathon had their baseball umpiring meeting every Saturday (we leave the house at 6:30!). So...I've been up and going since Pat is camping with Indian Guides with Collin and Marcel. I did the drop off and came back for a quick run. As I was running, the Fusion Sketch Challenge was running through my head. My PaperSmooches dies were already cut out and stamped so this was my own personal 10 minute craft dash! The card came together very quickly! Have to love when that happens. I need to pre-cut my dies and stamp them more often!
I leave you with this picture of my little cutey, Marcel. We had his end of the year picnic for first grade yesterday. He's such a happy little man. His teacher put together a slide show of the class. Amazing to see how much they change in just nine months..baby teeth, to no teeth, to adult teeth for this little guy. Even more amazing is to see how is writing journal has transformed. Love him.
And now for my next ten minute dash to the baseball fields for pick up....hope you have a fabulous Saturday!

This is simply beautiful Lynn!
Gosh this is CAS perfection Lynn! The colours are so beautiful. I could just eat Marcel up, he is so adorable. I hope your busy Saturday is a fun day. Good for you keeping up with your running! Yes this week has been wonderful, limo picks him up a 5:30 am tomorrow but hen he is back in 3 weeks!
So pretty Lynn! Love that you had stuff done ahead of time to sneak out this beauty. You are tiring me out so early this morning! LOL!
Forgot to mention what a cutie Marcel is! :-)
so pretty! glad you are getting your running in!!
Oh, I so remember those changes with the video of my kindergartners ever so long ago. BJ and I were just doing the same with pics of our cuties. Ezekiel is loosing all that little boy look, and Adina no longer has those adorable, rosy, chubby cheeks. I don't think I like it one bit!
And that card... So in love with that polka dot panel, and the bright colors set off so beautifully from the neutrals. Have a blessed weekend, my friend!
Such acute boy! Absolutely love your card!! Gorgeous simplicity!
Lynn! OMG, you've nailed this - I always love kraft with bright colours, but when I make a card with a kraft base, I'm not happy. But here, you've shown me exactly how I can use kraft and still feel like me. Or you. lol! Love this (and love that happy little boy!)
Great photo of your little man. ;-) And beautiful card! I love what you've done with the sketch in these gorgeous colors. Very, very pretty. Thank you so much for joining our Fusion challenge this week. ;-)
Sounds like a fun day, Lynn! Love your beautiful card - and how awesome that it was fast and easy! Love that photo of Marcel - he is such a cutie! Enjoy the rest of your weekend! :)
Have a fun day!! I LOVE this card! It's perfect and the colors are awesome!
CAS perfection. Marcel is so cute. Have a great weekend!
Absolutely love this card, Lynn!! Your Marcel is such a cutie too! They grow up sooo quickly...my "baby" graduates from 7th grade this June and I can't believe it!
yeh, I love it when a card comes together like that. When I used to run, then is when I had my best ideas! I love how the bright flowers top the more subtle paper, it makes for a really complimentary mix.
What adorable boys you have, can't wait to see them!!
What a great card Lynn!! Have a fun day!!
What a great card! I love your take on the sketch and making anything in 10 minutes is always impressive to me!
Wow! Your rushing about dropping off and collecting children, making cards and getting up at stupid o'clock is making me feel tired just reading about it! I hope you get a nice early night!
This card is stunning and no one would ever guess it came together so quickly! A bit of a result with the pre-cut images - I might try that! :)
That is such a sweet card (and sweet boy) and the fact that you could make it (the card, not the boy lol) in 10 minutes is a plus.
I love your interpretation of the sketch!
I take first day/last day of school photos each year and and write about how much my boys have changed. The would be a nice entry for Project Life!!!
what a little sweetie :) What special memories :) It must be year end soon for you there. And that card! Love it done in under 10! I really want to try that! Those sweet flowers really pop off the kraft...nothing is yummier than that! ox
Wow! You really DO need to cut out and stamps dies to be ready to make these FAB cards! LOVE this Pretty card, Lynn! and LOVE that pic of Marcel! Adult teeth really make a difference!
Gorgeous stamping Lynn! So glad you joined in the fun experimenting @ FUSION - hope to see you again soon :)
Don't you love it when a card comes together that quickly. Very sweet and pretty too. Your boy is so cute.
Oh Lynn, this is just beyond beautiful!! The perfect amount of white, kraft and color. Absolutely LOVE it!!! Love when ideas come to mind while doing something else : ) So glad to see you at the FUSION Challenge@
PS. super-cute guy you've got there!
How did I miss this?! I love what you've done. It helps when you put things together in your head...although, mine don't necessarily turned out how they are envisioned:)
Isn't it fun and scary how the kids grow.up.so.fast?
You are the Queen of Multitasking - planning your cards on your run! When I'm running all I can think is, "Is it over yet???" LOL!
Awesome pic of Mr. Marcel!
This is Paper Smooches goodness!!! I just adore the simplicity of your card Lynn :0)
