Hope you are having a terrific weekend! We've had a lovely one. On Friday after school we went to the Children's Museum (we have annual passes great Christmas gift!) Than for dinner at Spaghetti factory! What a fabulous family night! Yesterday Ariel had a birthday party and Chad's friend brought him to the first NHL hockey game of the season! Carter and I enjoyed a nice quiet afternoon at home! Today we went to church and are enjoying a nice relaxing Sunday! Only sad point is that Ariel isn't feeling all that well. :<
I wanted to pop in and share some cards I made for my friend's Winter Sim's Cards From the Heart Card Drive! She mentioned recently that she hasn't gotten too many cards in yet! Please consider making some cards and sending them in! Since I am in Canada I am going to send mine in airmail so they make it there in time! Please click here to read more, she has lots of sponsors giving away prizes too!
I went with one design but made 4 with the different stamps in the set! A flat design with no embelishments as Winter asks that you don't use any buttons or anything that could be pulled off (no chocking hazard!) I used all Hero Arts ink on this, I am truly loving the mid tone Tide Pool ink, it's my perfect aqua blue! I also used the black, and mid tones red and bubble gum pink! :> I stamped onto cardstock than colored part of the stamp in, cheating coloring and cheating paper piecing! :>
Since this is a love post I thought I would share about the love between my children. My goodness do those two ever love each other! It's truly mutual! They do have there moments where they fight, and Ariel says things like why do I have a little brother and they kick each other or hit! But for more often they love each other! It never stops amazing me and I never just walk by when I "catch" them cuddling each other I always stop and smile or call Chad to come and see. I try to catch a photo of it but I think they are tired of me taking so many photos of them! Today already I've seen them cuddling 4 times! And they play so well together! Here are some photos:

Thanks for the reminder Anita! I'll get started right away (dang craft drought!) your cards and kids are both completely adorable :)
Such cute cards, Anita! And I love all the photos of your adorable kids. Especially the one where Ariel is reading to her brother! So sweet!
Lovely collection of cards Anita! So cute seeing your kids so affectionate and loving towards each other too - my brother and I are really close now but when we were kids we fought like cat and dog!!
These are soo gorgeous too. All of them of course ;)
Such an adorable set of cards, Anita! And I love the pics of your kids - so darn sweet! Love their matching jammies! :)
Hi Anita - darling Valentines! I hadn't seen that Lawn Fawn set - so adorable! I just read about the Card Drive on Jenn's blog and will check it out. So sweet to see Carter and Ariel cuddle. Stay warm!!
Cute cards, Anita! Thanks for the reminder about Winter's card drive.
And your kids are the cutest and sweetest! What a special bond they share.
What a cute set, Anita! And for such a good cause. These cards are just dear, and so are you. And the kids are great - I always fought with my little brother. Still do - ha!
Very cute cards. Kids tend to mirror what they see, so there must be much love in the house. I love the one under the sink, but the sweetest one is Arielle reading to him.
what super cute cards Anita. I love that your children get on so well together. Their childhood memories are going to be awesome.
Adorable! Love those sweet LF images and I love all that sweet sibling time too!
Awwwwww! I think it's a tie! Both your set of cards and pics of the kids are so darn adorable!!! I just picked up that Lawn Fawn set- thanks for the inspiration:)
