Mornin’, y’all! Having a good weekend?? I hope so. We did some mowing yesterday – I rode the small zero-turn mower and Wayne worked the skid steer mower. Everything looks so pretty when it’s all mowed and fresh looking. And it smells so good!
We’re headed to see Guardians of the Galaxy Vol II today – I’ve heard great things about it already! I’m even going to splurge and have popcorn! 🙂
So – tonight, on my Facebook Live video, we’re going to do two things. First I’m going to spend a few minutes talking about the Stamp-A-Ma-Jig and showing you how to use it. Had a request, so that’s what we’re going to do! Then, I’ll walk you thru a very pretty, springy Mother’s Day card using my favorite new Suite – the Delightful Daisy Suite! Here’s a teaser…
Yep – you see a little peek of an Eastern Medallion! Fun, huh?
You’ll see that I played with two challenges on this one. The first inspired the layout and my choice of DSP. That one’s the Sugar Pea Designs Mix It Up Challenge.
And the Mother’s Day theme is from the Just Us Girls Word Week challenge.
So – hope you can join me tonight – right here – at 8pm Eastern!

Finn-Fan Fix…
Did you guys watch the Derby yesterday?
I’ve vowed to boycott it, but every year we end up watching.
I’m married to a former jockey, so…interest is high.
This is how we watch the Derby here. He’s usually exhorting one or the other jocks to push, “quit whoopin’ on him and ride”, go around, better get movin’ or some other sage advice.
He also can usually pick the winner before they’re half way down the back stretch.
It’s actually a pretty fun way to watch the race!
Finn cared not one whit.
He was more interested in me stuffing his treat ball with freeze dried liver chunks.
Seriously – I thought he was going to fall over he was tilting his head so far!! I think he was counting how many I was stuffing in there.
He’s kind of a goofus.

Finn is so cute. The sneak peak is cute. Wayne is cute. The Derby not so cute. Almost had cuteness all the way around. We watched but are not fans of the whippin’ or running in the mud. I felt horrible for the one eyed horse. I could never do that..he’d have to stay in the stable, get groomed and ridden gently. I do like Kentucky Derby pie and mint juleps, however! Have a great day, see ya tonight.
Yea….I have mostly negative feelings towards the entire racing industry. But I won’t go on about that here – would take too many digits before I ran myself down!! The one-eyed horse though…he did great. I was interested to see how he dealt with the gate and the traffic, but he didn’t seem phased. I’m glad he’s adjusted – and still has a job. When they stop being useful to their owners….well. Thanks much, Karen! See you tonight! 🙂
The sneak peek looks really pretty! Hope that I can join you tonight for your live video. 🙂 Glad that Wayne is feeling good enough to run the mower…and yell at the TV during the race. 😉
Yes – he’s getting back to his old self fast. Thank goodness! 😉 Thanks, Amy – hope to see you tonight! 🙂
Pretty teaser…😃
I watched too. So glad I learned from Wayne about them running on the wet track. I just hold my breath expecting to see them all sliding into one big awful heap. Nice to know that is unlikely…at least from that reason.
I know. I still don’t like the sloppy tracks – no matter what he says! Thanks, Mom!
Great teaser picture. Hope i can remember by then to tune in!
Me, too! If not – you can catch it later on FB or on YouTube! I’m getting all social-media-ated!! Thanks much, Susan! 🙂
Oh, that looks beautiful! I can’t wait to see it all. I wanted to use that DSP on my card for today, but chickened out! I know your is going to be beautiful! 🙂
I hope you’ll think so when you see it! Thanks much, Jari! 🙂
Thanks for sharing your daisy card at Just Us Girls. I just wish I could see the entire card.
Thank you so much, Bobby! If you go to my website you can see the whole thing plus instructions and card cuts! 😊
Gorgeous card Mary, so happy you joined us at SugarPea Designs.
Thanks so much, Lisa! 🙂
