Hellooooooooooo ! :)
It's funny how two days (since I last posted) feels like two weeks. I'm sorry I've been neglectful :( Yesterday I got a lot done (just not with blogging)...the girls' schoolwork, got a ton of housework done, some reorganizing and Sunday was our Anniversary! We went out for a lovely dinner and then went to see the New Indiana Jones movie and then caught the last half of Colton's soccer game ! He's playing on an U18 team this year even though he's only 16. They didn't have enough to field a U18 team so they asked the U16 boys to help them form a team. They're great games to watch but with all that testosterone out there, they're a lot more aggressive !!! Here's a couple of pictures of him playing...
I had a New Stamp Set arrive on Monday too !!! Ahhhh..don't you LOVE the smell of New Stamps !! As Stampin' Up demonstrators we were allowed to preorder a stamp set that will be available in the NEW FALL/WINTER CATALOGUE !!! It's a beautiful set called Fresh Cut and we could also preorder a pkg. of lasercut 4" x 4" (pkg of 10) matching flower cards with envelopes !!! All I can say is.....G-O-R-G-E-O-U-S !!!! Now...here's the even better news for YOU !!! You...yes, YOU can order this stamp set and matching laser cut cards in JUNE !!! I know....pinch yourself...cause it's true !!! So you'll want to watch for that !! When I pictured this card in my head it looked a lot different (don't they usually :) but I'm pleased with how it turned out. I put the stamp from the image on the front in behind the cut out flower so you could see it better. These cards are beautiful and I love how the stamps work so beautifully with them !!! Hope you like it :)...
Supplies: All Stampin' Up! Stamps: Fresh Cut; Paper: Fresh Cut Notes & Envelope, So Saffron; Ink: Going Gray, Basic Gray, Black Stazon, More Mustard; Accessories: Build a Brad, 1/2" Circle Punch, Vintage Brads, Stamp-ma-a-jig
Tonight I have my Club Girls and I can hardly wait to see them all again !!! I've got two super cute projects planned for them . You've already seen the Father's Day card we're doing but I'll post the second project tomorrow !
Have a great, great day and do something nice for someone today !!! Hug the ones you love......very tightly :) !

Your soccer pictures are fabulous. We are starting our very first year of Soccer in a few weeks. I can't wait. Colin has been asking for a year to play but this is the first he'll be old enough.
Your Fresh Cuts cards are wonderful!
