MFT Card Challenge #285 and Summer Coffee Lovers

Good Monday afternoon crafty friends! I hope y'all are having a great day

so far! Little man and I spent to morning at the pool! My Sunday school class does

a thing once a month called Monday Mornings with Mom where they

usually get together for Bible study, snacks, and crafts. They decided today to switch

it up and hit the pool at one of the ladies' in laws house. I decided it's never

too early to get a kid used to the pool! He seemed to like it... or at leas he didn't

dislike it. lol I had two cards I wanted to share today that I made last night.

Unfortunately since I didn't get this post up before I left this morning the Linky has

closed for entering one of them but I'll share it anyways.

This first card I made is following the current sketch from My Favorite Things.

Viva la Verve September week 2

Good afternoon crafty friends and happy Lord's Day! I hope y'all have been having

a great weekend! We sure have! Friday night out with about 15 couples from

our Sunday School class and Saturday morning at the food bank. Good times!!

Before we head out to evening service I wanted to share a card I made this afternoon

for my uncle's wedding. He is my dad's half bother and only 2 years younger

than me... Sounds strange, I know. My grandma skipped out after my dad graduated

highschool and eventually my Gramps found a new lady a little younger than

him who had never had kids yet so they had a few. I think of them more like cousins

then uncle's and an aunt. Anyways, they are awesome people. The wedding

is in Utah this coming weekend, I can't go, but my parents and sisters are going so

I thought I'd make a card that I think matches my soon to be aunt's country personality

to send with a gift card along with my parents. I followed the September week 2

sketch from Viva la Verve and am also entering this card into the current 

Verve Inspiration Challenge and the current challenge at Wordart Wednesday.

Enabler's List:

Paper: Paper Studio - wood grain and kraft cs

down and get some good crafting time in! Tonight I wanted to
