So Suzy Stamps May Release

Good morning everyone! It's release day over at So Suzy Stamps, and I'm playing with the new baby buggy and Mother's Day sentiment.

Public Service Announcement - Mother's Day is next Sunday, May 10th. Be ready, people!

I have several friends who are either celebrating their first Mother's Day this year or have little ones on the way, so this stamp is going to be seeing a lot of use...LOL

I kept the buggy gender neutral with greens and yellows, then jazzed up the card with the die cutting and layers of paper. I love how it turned out!

Be sure to check out all the new goodies in the store today and see what my fellow DT girls came up with!

Supply list:
So Suzy Stamps - Pretty Baby Carriage, Happy Mother's Day
Simon Says Stamp - Smoke Gray cardstock, Neenah Solar White cardstock
Mama Elephant - Creative Cuts Basic Set
Authentique 6x6 paper pad

Happy Crafting!

Happy Mother's Day!

So today I'm taking a day off from crafting to spend the day with my boys.

My ridiculously cute 8 month old, Kieran, presented me with a hand-drawn card and his first *two* teeth, as well as lots of smiles and kissies. He also had help from his Daddy in getting a suncatcher for me as well as getting me my morning coffee. :)

Breakfast we headed out for at a local diner called the Chuckwagon. It is a refurburished 1950s box car diner and the food is phenomenal. As an added Mother's Day treat, they were presenting all of the moms with a free half grapefruit with a cherry on top. :)  While there we also discovered that Kieran likes eggs as he kept demanding them off our plates!

After breakfast we headed for a local nursery, Hewitt's, so that I could pick out some flowers to put in my garden. As we pulled in, we were greeted by the double decker cupcake bus! Bettie's Cakes from Saratoga was there selling yummy cupcakes so of course we supported a fellow local business.

Now we're off to a friend's birthday party where Kieran will have two little boys to play with and I will be gifting one of my cupcake cards (soon available online).

Happy Mother's Day to all!
