I WAS enjoying what seems like the first of Spring, as the 3 feet of snow in my yard had finally melted, and I saw GRASS! Then, we ended up getting 2 more inches, with another storm to come today. I’m so over it! LOL!
Anyway…today I wanted to share a card using the newest Pretty Pattern 02 on the My Time Made Easy ™ LLC Blog.
Sketch Keyword will be MTMEPPS02

Here is my take on the sketch:
A strong cup o’ tea!
I loved this sketch! It really made me want to use a lot of pattern, and layers but keep it clean too! I THINK I accomplished that.
I knew I had been wanting to use this sentiment from the Keep Strong © 11 Images set, combined with one of our “coffee or tea” themed sets ( Fancy a Cuppa? © 20 Images, Grab a Cup © 37 Images, or A Spot of Tea © 20 Images ). I am really enjoying dusting off older sets, and executing old ideas I didn’t get time to implement.
So with that being said I used the cup image from Fancy a Cuppa? . I decided to stamp my own design on the cup using the daisies in the set, colored with copic markers, and added the flourishes from the Fanciful Flourishes © 21 Images.
I cut out my cup, and layered it onto the Dotted Stripes © Collection 2 paper. The floral paper is from the Coffee Beans © collection 😀 I love how it turned out.
I stamped, colored and cut out the spoon to add to my design.
Instead of a “bow” on the sketch, I used the “tea tag” I created using the “Time for Tea” sentiment, and tea pot image from Just For You © 38 Images. I added a mini flower from the Singing Silhouette © 24 Images set.
Done!

Now time to share a photo of my crafting sidekick!
This is my 6 year old papercrafter: Amber
She is hard at work, using my Copic markers to color in her project . Yes I said COPIC markers! She is very responsible, and I would trust her over anyone else 😀 She uses ALL my stuff! My Cricut, paper cutter, ink pads, cardstock, ATG gun…you name it.
She generally works along side me.
She goes to my website, picks out a template, and I will score it for her (explaining what I am doing). Depending on what he wants to do, she may decorate it first. I then help guide her to where the adhesive goes, and we both put it together 😀
She always has great ideas and inspires alot of my packaging with her imagination.
Here she made the Carry It © template, and stamped with the images from Home Improvement © 21 Images, and a new, yet to be released set of images, designed after her 😀
She created the entire project all on her own, picking her own images, and colors. The WHOLE thing 😀
This is one side of the creation she made for herself 😀 (and her blue nails, also painted by herself! LOL!)
Bad photo, it was dark out, and the lighting not so flattering, but she wanted a photo RIGHT away. She was so proud 😀
But not NEARLY as proud of herself as I am of her.
She is one amazing girl.
Thanks for letting me share what I do, and how my children get involved and inspire me daily. They are my reason for everything!
My children are the best “job” I ever had, and are the best thing I’ve ever created:D
See you back here soon.

Today is fine. My mother said to me:”Get karen millen dress please!And look out of the window. What a fine day! Let’s go to park,”It was really a good day, So my mother, my classmate and I went to the park. We took some foods in my schoolbag. On the way to the park. I saw monsoon dresses in the blue sky with snow-white clouds. I saw pear trees and some apple trees and so on. Below the trees, there are several kinds of flowers. It’s colorful, blue, red, yellow, pink, purple, orange and white.I saw some karen millen shoulders dresses and butterflies in the sky. I ate popcorn, cornflakes, banana and lollipop. They were wonderful. In the afternoon, we went to buy karen millen strapless dresses. I visited the birds, mice, cats, dogs, budgies, hamsters, rabbits and so on.

I love the ideas that younger people come up with. Many times they see a whole new perspective. I LOVE her creation and I enjoy when you share. May God Bless you and your family today in a very special way!
I love the sketch and your card. Gorgeous! And I absolutely adore the photos of your daughter crafting with your stuff. I allowed my niece to use my stuff at a young age too. I am now slowly allowing the 9 year old girls I teach at church to use my stuff. They love the craft. And I brought some Valentine stamps last month for them to make their own Valentine’s. They had a blast and asked if they could do it more often. I am so happy to be able to share my hobby with younger people. Oh, and I love the sneak peek of the stamps to come. That girl stamp is on my list for sure. :o)
