18

A Birthday Card for my son features a juke box stamp from Unity Stamps. This year he attempted to resurrect an old record player to play a collection of Shakespeare's plays I've had for years. It was in need of a new needle that was more expensive than buying a new player. I also found one that you can transfer your records onto a CD, and I just happened to find CD's that look like old vinyl records. So a theme for the day and the card was born.
 
 


 
I don't usually make cards for my kids. I know, doesn't that sound terrible? This however was a special one, and even if it was a last minute deal...I hope he enjoyed it.
 
thanks for stopping by...

Time to Spring Forward!

It's been a month since my last post. Life has been a roller-coaster of events and I am definitely behind. SO I'm going to take a few small steps and do a little catch up. Let's start by all that's happened with Mosaic Moments Design Team Challenges.

Here's a peek at the current challenge a Monochromatic Color Challenge: 



To see the full layout visit me at Journella.

Then earlier this month the challenge was a 'Forget-me-not' page done in Mosaic Moments Periwinkle 12 x 12 Grid paper.  See more on Journella "The Dash..."



Then there was one I had lots of fun with in "The Fab Fifties"  a challenge to look at the decade we were born in!



That's a Presidential motorcade with President Eisenhower during his second term campaign...outside my parents apt. the day after I was born! Be sure to check it out.

Thanks for taking a look and stopping by. I've got some cards to post in the coming days...so hopefully we'll be together again soon!!
