What makes a Happy Home? I love to take care of my family. For me, creating a home that is warm and inviting, where everyone feels welcome is pure joy! The smell of fresh laundry just in off the clothesline, a neat and tidy home and garden, a good home cooked meal, a few desserts here and there, the love of family, friends and fellowship all help to make our home a Happy Home. Join me as we celebrate the holidays, the birthdays and the every days!

Wishes



Lots of birthdays this month, so that means lots of card making and a lot of wishes!



My Jade will be 25 on the 26th. I think that a little gift card from one of her favorite stores will mail to Texas quite nicely.


Logan turned 4 last Saturday, but his party is this Saturday. I used a new Cricut Cartridge to create the deer - it's it cute? Two images to layer for a cool look. Then I added blue glitter for his eye.


My boss and her Sister are turning 60 next week (yes they are twins - identical to be exact). Shirley asked me to make a card for her Sis. I thought this image was perfect!



Last, but certainly not least is a special card for the first man that loved me unconditionally and still does. My Dad...he'll be 69 this Saturday. He is my hero, my confidant and I thank God every day for both of my parents. I am soo lucky to have them. Happy Birthday Dad!


Be sure to stop by
Beverly's at How Sweet the Sound for this week's Pink Saturday!

All of your family and friends will appreciate the extra attention you have given to their cards. Sweet card for twins who'll be sixty and what a nice crown for your dad.

I thank God every day for my parents also! I don't know what I would do without them! Your cards are adorable! A question, did you change the name of your blog to somewouldevensayitglows.blogspot.com/ ?? The reason I asked is that it still says The Old Parsonage and when I posted on my blog to recommend that people visit you, this is the link that showed up. Just wondering. Have a great weekend!

Love love love all the cards! My birthday is tomorrow (so kind of you to remember haha). I enjoyed each and everyone! I am dying to have a Cricut and am determined to have one in my hot little hands by years end.
Happy PS!

We have some months that are full of birthdays, too. Isn't it fun to sit and create something different for each of them? Treasures for them to receive, too.

Happy Pink Sweetie...
What a beautiful share. I love your cricut creations. What a beauty that one is for your sweet Dad. Hope he has a wonderful birthday and that he loves this card as much as we do.

Love the one your made for your Boss's sis, the twins. That one is SO sweet. Perfect choice.

Love that deer. Now how much sweeter can we get than that for the little one?

Have a gorgeous weekend sweet friend and thanks for sharing today. I so love it.

Many hugs and much love, Sherry

Your cards are lovely! And b'day wishes to your dad.

I hope you will join me for the Being Creative blog party this Sunday.

LV said...

Some months are just that way for card sending. Mine has been busy this months as well. At least, you were thoughtful enough to think of them. So many do not anymore.

I love your cards - very lovely.

Mollye said...

Beeeeeeeeutiful cards. You're becoming a pro ya know. Yes I too am glad you have your parents. I just wrote about my parents a couple of days ago. By the way I am just 1 1/2 years younger than your dad. My oldest daughter Lori will be 49 in June. So you could easily be my daughter too! But I prefer to think of you as a sister LOL. Hugs, Mollye

Lovely cards. Happy Pink Saturday.

Your "Trinkets" post shows, on my Google Reader. And I can read it, there. But when I try to go to your blog and comment on it, it says there is no entry.

Is this the entry, which you have scheduled to post on Sunday?

But if your Readers use Google Reader, to follow new posts, they have already read it, on Sat., as I have. So by Sun., if it does really post then, I won't remember to go back to your blog and make a comment.

Don't know if the Blogger pre-write an entry, and set-for-publishing-later thing, is the cause of this but....... If it is, I don't like the "service." But I never use it anyway.

I love all of those cards...how special each one is. I'm sure the recipients of each will LOVE them. I've seen the Cricut before...it seems like you can create endless things with one.
Have a wonderful weekend.

I love your handmade cards! Happy Birthday to your Dad and have a marvelous weekend Leann!

sissie said...

Hi Leann,
Oh how wonderful it is to be able to create such beautiful and personal cards. I have never tried to make a card and I admire you for being able to do so. The ones you are showing are so pretty.
And, I know that your Dad will be thrilled to receive a special one from you.

hugs
Sissie

Ginger said...

What beautiful cards you have been creating. Great cards, the receiver will love them. Card making is addicting isnt it? And so much cheaper and more personal than purchased ones. Good job
