Skipping Spring, Zero to 70!

After two weeks of cancelled spring baseball games the season has finally started! Andrew pitched the first home game. It's always so exciting (and nerve-wracking for me) to watch him pitch. Win or loose. 

Our weather has been crazy. Temps in the low 20's and now 70 is on the horizon. I welcome the warmth but am missing spring.

We had tree work done yesterday. We lost quite a few trees and had a fair amount of damage from the last storm. Our yard (and the town) looks like a disaster zone. The tree removal helped TONS! The yard is starting the shape up.

This week has been crazy with ball, Nic's play rehearsals (tech week) and soccer games and reffing for Ben. Better to be busy than not.  Looking forward to April break next week!

This blue and purple winter card uses tidbits from the Calm & Bright kit. I used the negative shape from the fir die cut to create a stencil and layered from there. Blend, stencil, stamp. Colors are Highlander Heather, Cloud Cover, & Lost Lagoon. @global_design_project #gdp525 #stampinup #calmandbright
Masking and stamping! On this card I mask with tape, blend ink, then stamp, then stencil, and stamp again to create a layered scene.

Sending Joy! I created this wintry scene using the Calm and Bright card kit. I love the look of white on white. I pulled in some gold embossing and Crumb Cake to balance out all that white. This CAS kit has tons of cute and tiny elements (yippee for tiny stamps) that are perfect for creating an adorable little holiday scene. 166461 Card created for @global_design_project BRRR theme. #gdp523 #stampinup #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #cardmakingreels #madewithmine
