I love Moo!

I spent this morning with my daughter creating this Valentine's day card for her "sweetie". She came up with the design. I just got my first Pink Stamper Stamps in the mail, Yeah me!!! My daughter took one look at them and had to make a cow card so she could use the ultra cute stamps...Udderly amazing and I love moo! I think it turned out cute.Maybe I had a little to do with it. Whenever card making with my daughter, I get to play the yes no game...what about this? yes...no Well then what about that?

Venice-the sites

This is the next installment of my daughter's Europe trip scrapbook. She LOVED Venice, and it shows through her beautiful pictures. I love how this page came together...the paper is so pretty. I even used my handwriting on this page...which I hate to do, but I try to include a snippet of my handwriting in every scrapbook I make for my family. I used a beautiful quote from Longfellow about Venice on this page...here it is...."White swan of cities slumbering in thy nest...While phantom city, whose untrodden streets Are rivers, and whose pavements are the shifting Shadows of the palaces and strips of sky."
