Getting back into the Groove!

So, today was my first day back at work, and I am so glad to be back! I am so extremely lucky to have a great group of girls to work with who always keep things entertaining! I am busy plugging away at getting next month's Peachy Picks Kit together, and I think this will for surely be my favorite so far. I can't give away any details yet, but gosh, these are gorgeous colors!!

Besides work, our oldest started her fitness program today for the sports season coming up at school. She missed the first three weeks because of our vacation, and boy, I don't think she was ready for what they put her through!!

Okay, on to some more pictures from our vacay!



As we sat and waited for Mt. Rushmore to be lighted at night, they had a wonderful program that honored all of the veterans and current military soldiers that were visiting the park at the time. There were well over 100 men and women who stood on that stage as well as one veteran from World War II. It was extremely touching and I was so glad that my family was able to be there for that.




And finally a picture from a long day of driving. I sleep most of the time in the car when we are on trips {I get very car sick, yuck!} and rarely get pictures along the way.

Peachy Keen Guest Designer Day 2

Welcome back to day number two!  I am so happy to see you all back here for my Guest Design Team spot for Peachy Keen Stamps . For today's project I will be using the Tuesday Sketch Challenge from the Challenge Blog . I used the Cheers and Green Beer stamp set for my card. I have been so focused lately on Valentine's Day that I have completely blocked out St. Patty's Day! But here is a card to remedy that. I used my Copic Markers to color in the images and used my Spica Glitter Pens for added definition. I am glad to say that I think I am finally getting the hang of these markers. I masked the coins to give a continuous border of them and used a pop dot under the mug of green beer. Don't forget to leave a comment here and at the Peachy Keen Blog for your chance to win the Valentine Cupids stamp set! Thanks for stopping by!!!
