Pals Paper Arts #264

Good morning crafty friends! I hope y'all have all had a great weekend and

are geared up for a great week! We had a wonderful Sunday yesterday! We went to

church where we learned and discusses some great things in scripture, then

we went out to my parents for lunch and a 4 hour game of Phase 10! Which my dad

won even though he started off in last but caught up after a while. I also have

off work today (at least until 4. I'll have to go in if the spine surgeon goes later than

4 although I doubt that'll happen) so I'm going to meet up with one of my sisters for
lunch! We usually don't see each other during the week so I'm looking forward to it!
Until then I'm going to get some cleaning and laundry done. Before I start on those tasks,
I wanted to share a card I made last night following the current sketch from Pals Paper Arts.
I am also entering this card into the current challenges at Can You Case It,
Wordart Wednesday, Addicted to CAS, and Cute Card Thursday.

Good morning crafty friends and happy Thursday! One day until the weekend!

Today is always a very busy day for me at work. I don't mind since the

over 13,000 steps at work alone! Now I know why I am always so tired

when I come home from work on Thursdays! Anyways, before I head out, I want

Good morning Twisted Tuesday fans! Well August is upon us

The Twist:

Also has a fair amount of white space on your project.
