Wild About You....
is retiring..boho..boho.....
I love this set and am sad to see it's retiring on June 30th!
I'm gonna hold on to this stamp set because it makes the best
baby cards and scrapbook pages.
I have been selling my cards at a local flower shop and this is a baby card
I made to celebrate the birth of a baby!
I have been working on some other cards that I will post later today.
Hope you will enjoy this cute card!
Until later.....

Central Park...
& I Lost My MOJO!!
I made this card a few weeks ago and thought I would
share it with you tonight! I love the look of Black & White
It is just so fresh and crisp. I have only used this stamp set
1 time. I have some stamp sets I just have to have. Then
I have them and don't know what to do with them!
Tonight I am feeling VERY uncreative...
Maybe because my kids took my radio so I have no tune's
to get me motivated! I hope my MOJO will back tomorrow.
I am a little sad, my birthday is Saturday 6-6
I'll be 35. When did I get so OLD??
My oldest son Mac turned 12 this last Monday...
I thought he was just a baby?? Where does time go??
I think the world is spinning faster!
How do I slow it down?
I know....
I should Scrapbook some
Pictures of the kids when they were little.
Lord knows I have plenty of pictures!
Maybe then I'll be HAPPY and my MOJO will return!
Well I should go to bed. Brown will be here tomorrow with
my New Stampin' Up! Catalog!
Until tomorrow
