Thoughts & Prayers {and Marcel's Birthday Party}



It has been way too long since I played along with a Runway Inspired challenge.  I put my new Verve stamps to use.  Loved all the white space and the combination of gray/black and yellow.  I think the inspiration speaks for itself.

Mentioned on Monday that there is lots to share this week!  Below are pictures from Marcel's birthday party. I'm continuing to put the Project Life app to good use. These layouts have already been printed and are waiting to make it into Marcel's scrapbook.

Marcel wanted a pinata! Everyone had to clear out of the way so that they didn't get hit!
And cake time...the cake inspired by his birthdate (10-3) and his age of 9.  Love that he was clever enough to think of that when he and Pat ordered the cake.
And the home run derby in the backyard!

Fabulous, yellow and grey work so well together- and of course I love the vellum sentiment. Yeah for Project Life app-- I'm still not going to there :)

Your card is just beautiful! Love the colors and the vellum! I love seeing your PL layouts too! Such fun pictures! I have played around with the app a bit, but haven't printed anything from it yet.

Adore this card, Lynn! Yellow and grey is one of my favorite colour combos and that vellum sentiment is lovely.

Great photos. I'd be all over that pinata!! Grew up having them in Costa Rica and so fun that they are now bit in NA - have even broken a few sticks hitting them (yes, I LOVE to bat in baseball and was a home run hitter LOL!). Fun story - my daughter had a butterfly one on her 4th birthday and refused to let anyone hit it as she didn't want to hurt it (my wonderfully sensitive child). Had to open it up and scatter the candy. Happy birthday to your precious, precious boy :)

Beautiful BG! The rose looks great in yellow (reminds me of a lovely smelling rose at the neighbours when I was about 4 years...) Great card! That PL-app gives great results! The kids had great fun... Hugs, Gerrina
