well, with easter coming I am going to get some bunny cards shared. here's an adorable little one from Taylored Expressions. I am also using some great Turkish Lace to go with it. I hope some bunny is leaving you a little easter basket this weekend. I told my easter bunny to skip the candy. As much as I love it, I don't need it. *But i do want it !!
Happy Friday everyone! It's the last day of March and a day before April Fool's Day. Now when I went to school we did all kinds of silly things on that day. I don't think such things happen anymore (in school, at least not the school I go to). Is that good or bad?
Here's an adorable card using stamp and sentiment from Taylored Expressions Grumplings. I just LOVE that stamp assortment and all the fun sayings that come with it. I am also using some beautiful flowers including some floral lace.

Happy Saturday, I hope you are having a wonderful weekend today. I am sharing this cute card, from Rabbit Hole Designs. I just love their coffee theme images. This one is just TOO funny. The sentiment comes from Taylored Expressions. "When is HIBERNATION? Because I'm 100% participating in that."
Hope this funny card gave you a little giggle today. There's a coffee lovers hop happening, here. Cheers, Holley

The convention ended yesterday so I am traveling home today. Here's a fun card for the DH, "I really MYTH you." He knows that is the truth. When he's not around, like when one of us is out of town. I miss him so. I know, I know, how can I be spending two months away every summer? Well, in summertime I am so excited about being in Turkey, it's a whole lot easier. But as you all can see by me posting cards for my DH all the time, I do miss him then too.
Going to be a short work week as I am going to Dallas Wed night for a scrapbook convention. I know it will be a small one, but I am still excited to go. I wish I had gone to the one that was closer to me in San Marcos, but this one looks fun and has some great classes so I am going. That being said, let's start off the week with a little coffee.

Here's a fun card using the cutest image from Taylored Expressions. I just love this dog and birdie combo! TOO CUTE. I buy all of the stamps with this cute coupling. It says, "You LIFT me up!" How sweet is that? I added a little brad on the pink flower that says, "Be Happy"

HUGE thanks to everyone at Brentwood Elementary for doing such hard work this year on what has been a challenging and tough pandemic time. I am so proud of the work we did, and I know that everyone will continue to do their very best whether they stay at Brentwood or have endeavors elsewhere. You all are my friends that I count lucky to have!
I think this grumpy cat from Taylored Expressions is just hilarious. I added the sentiment, "I wanna be where the people aren't." How funny is that? I do often totally feel that way, but i go vacationing in places like Istanbul where the population is 20 million. I tell my friends that in a city with SO SO SO many people, it's really like you are all alone. Maybe it's because I don't speak Turkish (though studying on Babble for the last five months, i still know very little), maybe I am just an introvert and tend not to engage with strangers. I don't know.

Here's a perfect winter theme card. It says, "When is HIBERNATION? Because I'm 100% participating in that." HA! I am one of those people who I think could hibernate lol. Sleep is one of my favorite states of being. Some people, like my DH say they resent sleeping.
Here's a funny card from Taylored Expressions for Winter time. It says, "You say "imaginary" like it's a BAD thing." HA! perfect for this cute YETI. Totally made me laugh. I hope you like it and it gave you a little chuckle today.
Well, it really used to annoy me when I was little and people would make fun of my name and say things like have a holly jolly christmas. (My name is HOLLEY--like the carbuerator, not the poisonous berry), but NOW, I have decided to embrace it, so Hey everyone,
Have a HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS!
Check it out, I'd love your feedback. Right now I am doing small amounts with pieces big enough for cards and smaller (like tag sized), but if you LMK what you want, I can make a pack just for you!!
Here's one of my favorite combos from Taylored Expressions, Gus and Gertie. I just love this adorable coupling. Here's a cute Christmas card I made using one of their stamps. I hope you are having a great December. We are getting out of school on the 21st. We are all READY for a break, lol.

Here's a super cute stamp from Taylored Expressions Gus and Gertie stamp line. It says, "I work hard so my dog can have nice things." How cute is that? I just adore this company for their funny (and punny) stamps. I also just LOVE their Grumplings. I can't believe we just have 10 more days of October. Wow, this school year is going.
Have a wonderful day!
HEY--I'm so excited to announce that I added a store to etsy to sell Turkish Lace it's HERE:

To begin the week on a funny note, here's a hilarious card from Taylored Expressions Grumplings line that I had to make for the DH when I saw this sentiment. Very much his personality. HA! I think he will get a laugh out of it.
I also think he will acknowledge his weirdness with pride. Definitely

Sharing this fun card from Taylored Expressions for the DH back home. I hope it makes him smile. he knows how much I like silly cards and funny puns. I know this is not a pun, but it is a silly funny card, so hopefully he gets a smile out of it. huge hugs today dear.
Who's to say what I will be doing today? shopping (now I would never say that in America), walking around (definitely), drinking coffee (I would never say that in America), sitting at the coast side? All sounds lovely....
Thought this sentiment was just hilarious. I am not sure if I am introverted or extroverted. I think at times I am both, but by default I am more introverted. However I am definitely one of those homebody people who's like ok everyone, go home! stay to yourself. Then I'm like, but I need a friend.....
Dilemmas of an introvert?
