Make a Card Monday

Kay Werner does a MACM each week on her blog.  I needed a birthday card for tomorrow, so I decided that I would take a page from her play book and create a card.  I got the idea for this card from Paper Crafts magazine, and just put my own spin on it.  I found the cute patterned paper in my stash, I used a couple of stamps, and then made the felt flower embellishment.  Inside, I stamped "Celebrate you" to finish it off.

Of course now that it is done, I would have done some things differently, but I will save that for next time.  I am inspired to start another creative project of some sort instead.  It is my "day off" (which is really never a full day off), so I need to make the most of the last few hours I have before Tim gets home and expects me to cook dinner or something.  ;) Tonight, the plan is to back up all of my photos and digital scrapbooking goodies onto the external hard drive so it is all safe and sound.  I'm also creating a separate CD with photos of little man  just in case I have a problem with the external hard drive (which has happened several times in the past).  I don't want to lose pictures of that special little one!

Here is a quick peek of him today.  He is so precious.  He looks a little goofy because he's teething and his gums are sore, so he's keeping his tongue moving across the bumpy terrain.  Poor baby!

What are you up to this week?
