Happy Wednesday Everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful week. I have been so busy that I have had no time to blog hop at all. The children’s last day of school is tomorrow and for my eldest, it is his last day of elementary school. I am in denial. Where did the time go? His graduation ceremony was yesterday and it was beautiful. One of my favorite parts was an amazing slide-show that showed the kids at various activities and school events. It was set to “Time of Your Life”, “Waving Flag” and another funky one I don’t even know! LOL! We were so proud of our guy and overjoyed when he won the award for Outstanding Achievement in Science! Sorry, I know I am running on! I’ll get to my cards!
My first card features a sneak peek of Wags ‘n Whiskers’ new release with our new illustrator Emma Metcafe. The line is called Millie and Friends and this collection is called “Let’s Party”. It is so fun and whimsical and for my card, I just went clean and simple. It seems to suit the image so well. My paper is Cosmo Cricket Joyride and I colored my image based on the color palette of my DP. The release will be both rubber and digital………something to suit everyone…..and will be this coming Friday the 25th.
My next card is features Magnolia stamps from The Stamp Shoppe. I combined last week’s theme (which I missed) of accessory stamps and this week’s theme of red and white. This card again is Clean And Simple but I really like how it turned out. I just colored the same image three times and to add some interest I embossed my white cardstock with a Swiss Dots folder.Oh…and a little stickles to the lace. I can’t help myself. Even CAS needs a little bling!
I also want to remind you of the specials this month over at The Stamp Shoppe:

What cute cards, Jeanette! I love the little tiger image!
What fantastic cards!! I agree these WnW are great for CAS cards. I went that route with 2 of my peek cards as well.
I met it's hard to have your son leaving elementary school!! I still have a few more years. But next year will be the first year without one of my kids in preschool! No more "babies" :-(

Wishing you a great Summer with your boys Jeanette, Zoe and Danni don't finish for another 4 weeks yet. Doesn't time go by way too quick and Zoe only has another year left before going to senior school. I can't believe we have to start looking at schools in September. Congratulations to your dear son for his fabulous achievement in Science! You sure must be a proud Mum :-) Beautiful cards as always and gorgeous colouring, Big Hugs, Nikki x
They are both wonderful, so cute!
