The Girls (a boy and a dog)

We had lots of rain all weekend. At one point me, J and Sami were caught in a cloud burst when we took Sami out for a walk. I almost couldn't see it was raining so hard. And we were moving slow, the 3 of us. Now it is very cold at night, freezing. I don't know about you, but I can't stand for my hands to be cold. I can't decide if I am better off making something to keep them warm, or if that makes it worse. I don't know, you know?

I made these cards for my grandmother. She sent me a box of China via my parents this weekend and I wanted to do something for her to say thank you. My grandmother is an interesting woman. She talks in a very small little girl voice, but she will curse like a sailor if she loses at cards. She cracks me up. These are just her sense of humor too.

Supplies: Cosmo Cricket Chemistry Patterned paper Flirt and Wink (front and back); plus Bazzil brown and white paper and Creative Imaginations Girls stickers.

Instructions: Cut each Patterned paper to 4.5 x 6.5. Print text via computer or you could add rub-ons if you had some that would match.  I wanted some classic timeless girl quotes, like some from Mae West, etc. Cut white cardstock with text to 3.5 x 5, mat with brown cardstock. Adhere all layers and then add Girls stickers in any configuration you choose.

I'm thinking I might pick up a frame at IKEA the next time we go for this, I like the cards all together and I think my Grandmother would love to put something like this in her bathroom. My Grandfather died this time last year and I know the holidays will be hard for her and I want to cheer her up.  Anyone up for bring sticker sneeze back? Just checking.  Happy Monday!
