Manly Thanks

Quick post...Thanks for your kind words about my hubby’s torn achilles.  His pain is considerably less today, still waiting on word for the ultrasound :)

So, I’m hopping!  I’m in charge of our Administrative Assistant Appreciation this week on Wednesday and as I was going through all the cards I have I realized that I didn’t have enough cards that were masculine thank-you’s....so I had to quickly make a couple.


I thought this cute (old) MFT set would be really fun.  I’ve had it forever!  I did some fun colouring on the straw hat, carrot greens and ground.  I used this past week’s MFT Sketch for the fun.  It really helps to have a sketch when you need something quick!



And on this one I pulled out a cute Lawn Fawn set called Home Sweet Home, and this week’s Mojo Sketch.  It’s a great set to paper piece (I even made some curtains in the window) pairing with some MME - Kate & Co paper.  

Short and sweet today!

Such great thank you cards, love the summer feel they have, cute paper piecing.
I found out yesterday that the pain I have been having in my foot is a torn tendon, but thankfully I only have to wear a brace and had a cortisone shot in my foot, so glad he is feeling better!

Two adorable cards, Christine. Lovin' that paper pieced birdhouse. Had never thought to do that, and it is so darn cute!

I just love how colorful and bright these are! Cute sentiment on the first one, too. Great masculine cards!

Gorgeous card. Love the stripes and polka dots together and how bright and cheery the card is.

how adorable! I love your coloring. Achilles tendons take ever so long to heal. Big hugs to your dh. The blood supply can be slower to that area so it takes longer for it to strengthen back up ♥
