Work Today Felt Good

Today was another gorgeous day where we had weather in the 70's. We all got busy doing work around here. Sarah was busy taking weeds and old plants out of the garden. Tim and Ben had the hardest job of taking a pick and taking a half-dozen bushes out down to the roots.
I got to vacuum inside and boy did I clean!  You know the things you don't ordinarily do like our walk-in closet, moving tables, the trunk in our room, all sorts of things.  Whew were we tired when we were finished.
  I've had some time to make some challenge cards.  Last weekend Splitcoaststampers had a weekend of challenges.  I did a few. This is a ways to use it challenge.  You had to use a dog in your card.  This stamp is so cute.  I love the puppies and their little hearts.  I used a wide SU ribbon sample and corduroy buttons.  I also used a herringbone embossing folding to keep with the 'dog' card.  haha
Here's another card. This card had to be a monochromatic color card.  I love razzleberry so that's what I used for this.  The paper is the new Summer Smooches paper which customers can buy starting April 1st.
This card was made for today's Splitcoast Stampers inspiration challenge.  You can find my inspiration for this card at the second link.
This is called a flip-flop or swing card. Here is where I found directions.
Here is my inspiration
I used my SAB set called Fresh Vintage. I colored it with rose red, pool party and daffodil markers. The paper is from Glitter Sweet Matstack by DCWV.

 I found this on Facebook and wanted to share this.  If you're a mom you can identify with this for sure.
It's time for finishing the laundry and getting some sleep. I'm tired from my work day.  Another gorgeous day is coming tomorrow.  I can't believe how warm it is here.  Thank you God for all you've given us.
Bless you for visiting today. May God richly bless you.
