Hi All!
Dropping in with a few recent creations and a few pics from our Florida vacation. Finally got caught up on unpacking and laundry in time to repack for a long weekend with my family to celebrate my niece's graduation.

Here are a few creations that I made recently:
The first is a layout using Studio Calico's May Add-on; Brownie and a bit of the Get Messy Class kit. My oldest DS, turned 14 while we were on vacation. Still in disbelief that in weeks he will be headed to high school. Actually really in disbelief that I have already been driving him to the high school for band rehearsals! Oy! Time flies...

 And this is a really simple yet fun card that I made for the soon-to-be graduate niece of mine. I knew I wanted to try this technique with the washi and Silhouette die cut lettering combination, and I have to say I am really happy with the results! I plan to make several different cards with varying sentiments as it is near instant gratification with fun, graphic results.

And, as promised, a few of the more than 1000 (and I am really being conservative on the number here) pics of our vacation. Sadly, I barely took out my big camera as it was just too fun and easy to take pics with my iPhone and Instagram app.
Here is the lovely, lovely place we called home for the week.

The view from the top balcony/veranda (no filter).

One can totally see why they call it the "Emerald Coast."

So. crazy. spectacular.

Back with more lovely vacay pics and perhaps a few more scrappy items in a few! Time to call it a night now. (YAWNNnnnn....)
