I love my mom!

I have a great mom! Her birthday was in October and I sent a little love package. I had given her gift earlier when visiting, but it's always nice to receive something fun in the mail on your birthday. I thought these colors had a hint of fall hues but not too overt.

Of course, this card features my recent Papertrey Ink stamp set called "Fall Elegance". I love these sentiments for thank you cards or just to say I care. This card also features my favorite cardstock and ink color of the season: PTI's "Scarlet Jewel". I also love the frame and orange flower cut out with my SLICE. I love love love my slice! These shapes were from the "Noteworthy" cartridge. I have already made a Christmas wish list with my favorite new slice cartridges!

Other fun stuff about this card... of course I glittered up the flowers which I believe you can see in the first picture. And the ribbon is a Basic Grey Ribbon. PTI buttons are on the bottom right corner, too.

Happy Birthday, Mom! I love you so much! Of course, I am sure she was happy to get the card, but probably even more thrilled to get a fistful of pictures featuring her favorite grandson and a colorful handmade masterpiece that was "Noah's Original Creation".

Have a happy day everyone!

A New Home

Hi Everyone!

So sorry that I have been MIA for two months. Just days after my August release of Fall Elegance, my family and I moved to Colorado. We are in Monument, just outside of Colorado Springs. What a change it has been! I have been a Florida girl my whole life, so it has been quite an adjustment from the change in weather, navigating new roads, now staying home with my son, making new friends... just a whole lot of change. The first month was the hardest, then every week after that got better and better. I love being home with Noah, my two year old, and every day I am feeling more and more at home here.

The past few days we have had a whirlwind of snow! Luke got to stay home for two snow days and we got well over two feet of snow at our house! Geesh! For two days it felt like we were living in a snow globe! Snow was falling non-stop! The sky has finally cleared and now it is a beautiful winter wonderland. And it is still October, folks! Well, I thought I would add some pictures of my family in our new surroundings.

This is my son, Noah and I up in the mountains last week when my parents came to visit.

This is Noah standing next to my very first snow man! Am I a Florida girl, or what? I had NEVER made a snow man before! I felt that it was only appropriate for my snow man to wear a Florida Gator hat. :)

This is Noah and my mom enjoying the best part of a cold snowy day... Hot Cocoa!

One fabulous thing about snow days is the opportunity to get creative in the craft room! So, tomorrow I will be sharing some of my recent projects over the past few days.

Nothing but Grace,

Tiffany
