Bird Song

This little bird card is for my niece and also for the CDAC Midnight Madness 102 Challenge.  The digital image colored with copics is from Heart Song Designs.  The dark cs is from Double Mates and the dp is from K & Company.  The greeting is a stamp from Chapel Road Artstamps.

Went to my daughters a week ago to help her pack for a move.  Came home for two days and then we were called back, baby decided he was ready to be born.  They had the last load on the truck when she went to the hospital.  When we arrived there, The main floor was set up, beds made, dishes in the cupboards and the living room was decorated, none of this had been done before she left.  The girls from her ball team had come over and looked after that while the guys were finishing the unloading of the truck.  We stayed and looked after grandchildren while mother was in hospital.  She was there for three days and then we helped around the house with meals, picking up kids from school, shopping, and washing etc. Baby Boy Colton Alister Scott Weese 6lb.1oz. We came home Saturday night.
Went golfing this morning for the first time this season.  The weather was beautiful, but, my score was ugly.

The Golden Birds

Don't you just love the birds an image from Priscilla Styles, CDAC.  I have painted them with Yasutomo metalic watercolors.  The cage is a die cut from Marianne design.  The DP is from K&Company.  White cardstock was put in a cuttlebug folder and through my Wizard. A layer of gold cardstock on a white card. The center cutout was made using Spellbinders Scalloped Circle.

Tomorrow is card day at my house, so I have been busy making a casserol , salad, and a cake for our lunch.
There will be eight of us and we are celebrating two birthdays.  The above card will be for one of them.
  I was suppose to golf early this morning, but too wet and cold.  It turned out to be a nice day, but rained later in the afternoon.  We were visiting friends in the afternoon and did manage to sit out on their back deck for about an hour before it rained.  After cards tomorrow we are going to my daughters and staying overnight.  We will help her pack some of the smaller things, she will be moving on Saturday, we will be home then, the younger ones can help with the heavy things.

Sweet Peas

Sweet Peas a very pretty digi from Priscilla Styles CDAC which I  have chosen to enter into the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge MMSC100.    My card is almost a duplicate of the Fancy sketch.  I have colored the digi with copics.  I used a cuttlebug folder for the lavender background.  The turquoise DP is Dizzy Dots from Lasting Impressions.  The sentiment is a sticker colored with copics.  The ribbon from Michaels. A Fun   card to make. A great image for spring.
