"love"

I like things pretty basic from time to time as you can see here.  This is one of our self-taken pictures from Christmas morning 2011.

"snow"

Yet again, pictures of the same snow day.  My son created a small snow tunnel in our front yard as well.  He had a lot of fun on this day and kept busy for quite awhile.

"the penguin slide"

I took these pictures 2 years ago after we had a ton of snow dumped on us.  My son created a slide out of one of the snow drifts off our driveway and then proudly demonstrated the correct way to slide down.

" i love u"

I created this for my sister-in-law to give her husband for Valentine's Day.  It's another of the giant tag gift card holders.  I do believe these are a new favorite of mine.  They are fun and easy to create.

"season's greetings"

"Merry Christmas"

This is a pretty simple card but pretty.  The picture doesn't do it justice because I used my phone and didn't have great lighting.  The paper is shimmery and I heat embossed the snowflakes and title.

"hello"

I made this card front to cover the end of a display box at work hence the purple edges.
