Pizza Slice Love Card

Like pizza with a lot more toppings except for no anchovies than on this card version. Made this to give to my hubby for our Anniversary in Nov. (yes, I made it way early, need to make sure I put it somewhere where I'll be able to find it then).

Got creative making this a slider card as well as making the plaid. Made the plaid using a Close To My Heart retired stamp Build-A-Plaid.

4th July Card

Belated Happy 4th of July weekend. 4th of July hubby (he is the grill master and the T bone steaks were awesome, he also made sweet potato casserole), daughter (she came over and had made a wonderful fruit cobbler), 

2 dogs (Daisy Rey & Holly Blossom enjoyed their pieces of steak I gave them, we do not give them bones, they also enjoyed the homemade treats I made using peanut butter & pumpkin) 


























and I (I made the pasta salad & biscuits and washed all the dishes) celebrated at home. Weather was perfect; sunny & clear skies. Today, day after weather has been raining off & on with thunder & lighting.

We watched Hamilton on Disney channel and it is awesome. I found the words online so I can look at to understand more. We have enjoyed the Disney channel since subscribing in Jun. Watched the Mandolorian Star Wars episodes (watched all 8, did not binge, looking fwd to season 2 that is suppose to be in Oct) exclusive to the Disney channel. I'm fond of Child Yoda and was very fond of Yoda in the regular Star Wars.

Made this Patriotic card by combining several things. See below for details.
