Seriously, could the Peace in the Hood Stickerz be anymore FUN??!!!!!

I used some of the Peace in the Hood Stickerz for one of my cards today:

Do you notice the sassy Rouge stitching?

I was inspired by Mojo Monday 168:

I also wanted to share another card today...this is a sassy one:

All the patterned paper is Sassafras Indie Girl from Torendi!  I used some Indie Girl Flag Banners {LOVE THEM!}...squeaked in a kraft stitched bloom too!  Check out that mini tag I made...even stitched a portion of a doily onto it...the flourish is ala ZVA that I had in my stash and I topped off the card with an EAD Designs Saying Hello Sentiment Stickerz!

I was inspired by this PageMaps sketch:

Thanks so much for stoppin' by and I hope that you'll join in the E.A.D Designs Peace in your Hood Color Challenge!!!

sneakie peek...snail mail for Grace and my boy...

Hey, it is Thursday! We're almost to our long holiday weekend!!!

I have tons to share with you all today so grab a coffee/tea...sit back and read on:)

Check out this sneakie peek...wanna see the whole thing? Pop over HERE....it'll be worth it...seriously....there may be a challenge and there may be a PRIZE!

I'm a huge fan of the uber-talented Jennifer McGuire...who isn't?! Well, I just recently read about another card drive that she is spearheading...this one for a little girl named Grace. Bottom line, as a Momma I cannot imagine the pain that someone must go through experiencing the loss of a child...it breaks my heart to read stories like this and if I can just help a smidge, I'm more than happy to help out...

I don't have a whole lotta kid-friendly images but the My Cute Stamps, Little Forest Friends, sure is sweet...I paper pieced the cute snail with Cosmo Cricket Nutmeg....the sentiment is my newest addition from the A Muse shop:) I love anything and everything A Muse but man, their sentiments ROCK. This is a wee card...4.25 x 4.25...

Make sure you check out the linkie to Jennifer's card drive....

Next up...a layout:)

Oh I had fun with this one...a cutie pie pic of my boy from 5 years ago AND Echo Park Paper goodness!

This was a trip to {the very hot & humid} North Carolina where my oldest brother and sister-in-law live. All of us, including my Momma...took a roadtrip from where my Bro lives to the Outter Banks and stayed in a house on the beach....w-o-n-d-e-r-f-u-l! I'm the first to say that I LOVE living in the Pacific Northwest but I LOVE the Atlantic Ocean...warm, blue and gorgeous!

I was inspired by the challenge over on Becky Fleck's Page Maps blog:

I'm patting myself on the back for managing a sketch AND color challenge...whew!
