Have you read this sweet children's story? We picked it out yesterday at story hour and it is so adorable---I can't believe I have never read it. If you have little ones you must find this and read it to them---completely heartwarming. It reminds me of what is happening all around us this spring. We have seen chicks, ducklings, colts, baby goats, and so many beautiful blossoms. The weather has cooled again and so we have hung up the swim suits for another week or so and are enjoying the perfect temps.
Just a quick little card for you today---I am crazy about this paper from Cosmo Cricket. I think I'm down to my last scrap. The felt heart is from Fancy Pants, the stamp from Crafty Secrets, and the cardstock sticker from Making Memories.
And...I was asked to design for Scrap Magie for June using Marina's Pink Kit---it is so beautiful and full of unique little items---I love it. Part of the proceeds from the sale of this kit are given to the Breast Cancer Foundation of Quebec--so wonderful. Here is just a small peek at one of my projects.
Well...my little one is under the weather today--earache and fever---so I'm off for some snuggles and a visit to the Dr. later.
Enjoy your spring.

Simply gorgeous! I have some of that paper that I haven't used yet...I can never make it look as good as you! Seriously! Anyway, it's beautiful and I am currently enjoying each creation I come across in the new PaperCrafts mag! Love them all so far! Hugs, Jackie (p.s. I hope your little one feels better soon!)

Saw your heart on 2 peas this morning, but when I clicked to leave a comment, the entire page was blank. Weird. Love work. Hope the earache is better.
