Happy Monday!

Yes, well, since Tracy started her new job last week, it's not quite as happy as it used to be since I have my niece and nephew now on Mondays too, but such is life.  I went to bed early last night and got up with a little more time to relax and get going.  What a difference it makes!  Everything ran more smoothly this morning for sure.

We got soaked taking Kyle to school.  It was only drizzling when we left, but the sky opened up while we were walking to school and it was pouring for our walk home.  We came in, got jackets changed and grabbed preschool snacks and off we went again.  Dropped Nathan and Sophia at preschool this morning and they were excited to be there.  Matthew and I headed home with a stop for a Starbucks for me!

At home here, I was puttering on the computer while Matthew had a snack and played.  I saw a sketch for a card (LPSC86) and got inspired.  I grabbed my last Taylored Expressions kit and played!  It was wonderful to be doing something that wasn't for work and just for fun!  I always seem to be short of birthday cards and these Penny Black stickers are easy.  I stamped a birthday quote on the inside as well.  Sorry about the poor lighting for the picture, but on a rainy day...

Well, I'm now back from getting the kids from preschool and need to get them lunch and Matthew in bed, so I'd better get going.  Hope you're having a good one!

Cheers,

Challenge Card!

OK, so this was intended to be a card for today's challenge over at 365 Cards Challenge Blog, but after doing it, I realized it was also supposed to be a birthday card! I only got the colour part of the challenge which was Red, Blue and Yellow. Oh well, I used a bunch of scraps and came up with a quick card I really like. Even the debossed piece was in my stash of scraps!

Cheers,
