Wow what a rough couple of weeks I have had. Two weeks ago as I was getting ready for a vacation in Florida. We had planned to visit my mom and my husband's mom. Before we left we got word that my mom would need major surgery. So my vacation to Florida turned into a care giving mission as well as a scare my mother might have cancer. We were very lucky the went from major to minor and no cancer was found. By Monday evening my mom was home and doing well and I breathed a sigh of relief. Sadly my sister in law who also lives in Florida was diagnosed with cancer. So my joy was turned to sorrow. I returned home Saturday and have spent the last two days playing with my stamps it is a type of therapy for me. Art has always been a way for me to escape. So here is one of my cards I made today and I have two more to share with you this week. This card is for my Syracuse Group. We meet this Tuesday. This card is a diamond fold card and I got the directions from this site they were very simple

Is it a Valentine or a Party Invite? you get to choose. What I love about making cards is the ability to choose what the card is for. I love the new raspberry tart paper! I can't get enough of it so I recently made a very quick valentine using it. Later I needed a card for a party invite and I was in hurry so I used the same quick layout but changed it up to make the invite I love the flexibility of card making!
