Dear Self: We missed You!

Guten Tag, Friends! I am returning...once again. After surviving the hurricane that is the start of the school year, I am finally starting to wind down and resume normal activity. I am happy to report that; although, I may have been forgetful of my blogger duties, I did not neglect my craft room. And for your abandonment issues, I've decided to treat you all with a plethora of inspiration. Do Enjoy!

 Farewell card for coworker

Birthday card for Grandmother. (Dear Lizzy)

And speaking of Dear Lizzy, I picked up the greatest "grab-bag" from Mangelsen's last weekend. It was exclusively Dear Lizzy merchandise all packaged together for 5.99. When I got home, I realized all the price stickers were on the individual items, and decided to add them up. If purchased individually, all these items would have retailed for $38! Check it out!

I have become a bit obsessed with everything included. Just look at the little cloud stamp!

I was so inspired by this color schema, that I made another card using my new stash. Is this what I can expect by purchasing collections? It isn't something I normally do, and now I've done it twice in the past couple of months (if you recall, I just got Simple Stories collections 24/7 & I heart Summer). It's madness I tell you!

Anniversary card for the hubby. 4 years today! (Dear Lizzy)

Thank you for visiting!
