Happy FWF Friday!


Two of my design teamies recently lost parents and I made this card to send to them. It's always hard for me to make sympathy cards -- I guess because the reason behind them is sad and generally I like happy cards. I kept it simple with the design so I could send it easily. I used Now & Always by ippity. I love this sentiment. I think it's nice for a sympathy card as it's important to remember the happy times.

I hope everyone is having a nice Friday - I'm wrapping up my first week as a SAHM and have loved it. I'm still trying to find my groove and we had 2 snow days thrown in there so that kind of threw things off a bit but was fun to have all my kiddos home. I can't believe next week is my birthday and next month my son will turn ONE! Where does the time go? Enjoy it - enjoy this day, this moment RIGHT NOW - each day, each breath is a gift - that's why it's called the present. :) Have a fabulous weekend! I have a ton of projects to work on this weekend - my blog will be busy the next few days so I hope you will take time to stop back by again.

Carisa, your link on the Unity blog post isn't working...maybe you can contact someone. My post didn't post today, just got it up a bit ago so the poor hoppers aren't having much success visiting! Just thought I'd give you a heads up. Your card is beautiful, how thoughtful of you. Glad you survived your first SAHM week!
