The choice is yours!

Color Hues, #6



A card this this week's Color Hues, using blue and turquoise.
Blues are not my go to colors, but I wanted to try this and I like how it turned out.  I think this will be a good masculine card.

Seize the Birthday, #257 - Make a Child's Card



Hello, this is Linda and it is my turn to host STB
I would like to see a card for a child or in my case for children.
Please join us and come see all of the inspiration by the team.

Justin, Connor, Avery & Anna
Christmas 2022
Avery is the youngest of Brad's older girls from his 1st marriage.  The two older girls are still in Washington.

Some of you know, but for those who don't, that is the reason my sister and I moved to Oregon from Washington to watch these babies grow and help out the new family.   My son was promoted but the job was in Oregon and the babies were about 15 months.  I just couldn't imagine not seeing them as they grow.  The triplets will be 5 in April and it is so hard to believe.  It seems like they were just babies.  Plus, I had an extra bonus in the fact that my BFF of over 60 years, Colleen, (One Smile Lifts a Spriit) lives only about 20 minutes from me.  So, it was a no brainer for me to move down here.
The kids were assigned a color at birth, Lol.  They each received a blanket, Connor got the green one, Justin the blue and Anna the pink.  So needless to say, to help them keep their toys, clothes separate, we have all followed the color scheme.  The colors are depicted in the balloons.
These babies are such a blessing to us.
