Over at the Piggy Tales blog, they have been featuring me this week. What an honor :) Each week they will be showcasing one of the wildly talented ladies from the Design Team. Can I just say that these women are AMAZING!!! I made a couple of new cards using a couple of Piggy Tales Academy Kits.
This card was made using the April Kit. It features the Thumbelina collection, and it bears repeating....it's gorgeous!
I had an email asking about what type of paper I have been making these cards from. The cards are from American Crafts, and I purchased them from Hobby Lobby. I really like the kraft color and how it will go with anything. I also used my new die and jute from Papertrey Ink.
This next card is from the November kit. I don't usually make "manly" cards, but this kit just spoke to me ;)

I used the same card base from American Crafts. The alphas are AC Thickers.
Ok. I have taken so many photos lately, and I have finally started to edit them. Actually, I am still editing them. But, I wanted to share some photos from Easter. Our children are getting so big and I want to capture every moment that I can with them. I have thousands of pictures and I treasure each one.
Look at this sweet girl.

My little man couldn't take all the excitement. He even dressed himself!!

I love this picture of my girls. They were sitting on top of these little cars playing a game. They are so good to each other.

Garrett has a way about him. I love this boy.

Please notice the bands on her braces. She had them intentionally colored this way to look like an Easter egg :)

This is the way the little ones hunt Easter eggs...

And this is how the big ones do....

I have a date tonight with a very special man! Prince Charming and I are going out!!! This may not seem like a huge event, but I think the last time we went on a "date" was this past November. We have some terrific friends going with us also. I have been looking forward to spending some time with our friends, great food, and lots of laughs. I hope everyone has a fantastic, relaxing weekend.

Love, Love, love the cards! And the wonderful pictures of your kids. They are all so adorable! Date night is huge when the men are away, or you just don't get out very often. We had one in March when my hubby was home for 2 weeks from Iraq. Live in Florida but it was really cool and windy. We went and played mingolf down near the beach! It was hilarious, didn't get any pictures but I did post a layout on my blogthat I did with my souvenirs. I someohow made an impossible shot and won a free game! I see you are just 3 away from 300 now! Won't be long!

You have a beautiful family Danielle and I want to come to your house next year for your Easter egg hunt, I'll even bring my own four-wheeler LOL. Your little man and my little man can talk fashion since mine would probably choose the same outfit. Hee Hee.
