Birthday Butterfly

Wow! I finally got to make a card again. I have been so busy lately that I'm having a hard time finding time to craft. My son is getting married in two weeks, we are doing some improvements to our rent house, so our new renter can move in May 1, and I have been down to my Mom's last week to take her to the doctor. But, I'm making time today. Tomorrow is already taken by my son and his fiance.

On to my card. This is a card for my Mom's birthday. She will be 90. And she still lives alone and is in good health for her age. I love butterflies. They are so dainty and fragile looking, but so beautiful.

Elegant Fairy

Happy April 1st. I hope you haven't had too many April Fool's jokes pulled on you. I have a friend that pulled a good one on me last year and you would think that I wouldn't fall for anything from her this year. But, fell for it again. Oh well, I guess I'm hopeless.

Today I have a elegant fairy. At least she is that to me as Crafts and Me Challenge is for an elegant fairy. This is Teen Fairy Mia by Mo Manning. She is just gorgeous.
