Easter Egg Card




Here is an egg shaped card from a set of shaped card templates from The Cutting Cafe. Regina has alot of great templates and stamped images for sale!


I decorated my card with dp. from basic Grey. I also used 2 of the Martha Stewart border punches. After layering I added the flowers, pearls and finally the bow. The sentiment is in a set from Little Paper Shop.

Not a Good Week


This was not a good week for my husband and I. Tuesday night we got a call the pig barn where he works burnt to the gound leaving 19 people out of work. What is even worse(and something we are all having a hard time dealing with) is the loss of over 14,000 purebread mommys and babies!! What a terrible way to die! Even though I have been assured the smoke got them first I still cry thinking about them.

I have not felt like working on any cards since......even got all my new stuff from SU and just can't sit to make anything. Guess I just have to give myself time to process what has happened.
