Note cards.....LOTS

OH my goodness...I have been without internet for over a week now and just got it back...I have  been very busy making note cards as a thank yous for the chaperons that went on the youth gathering in New Orleans.
They are due back today, but because of the rain we have been getting in Wisconsin, the Milwaukee airport
was flooded with 7 inches of rain, so they will be back a little later than thought, safety first I always say.....
BEFORE I GET TO THE PICTURES .....I HAVE GREAT NEWS

My daughter had her baby, Elijah John.... a big boy at 8pounds 1 oz. 21 inches.

I almost forgot to take pictures of my cards, I had 2 boxes packed up before I remembered....I guess that is what happens when I get out of the normal everyday on line
.I used my design studio  so I don't have any sizes, please feel free to ask if you have any questions.

here goes.....30 cards in all and 5 boxes

                                      these next sets are for the Pastors

Peachy Keen Challenge # 32

For Challenge 32, we want you to create a card or layout (any size) based on your favorite summer vacation destination. You must also include one of the following three "B"'s: Buttons, Brads or Bling.

this one is for PKC  
I live on a dairy farm in central WI  and anything considered a vacation would be after morning milking and before evening milking, so we are looking at a 7 hour window and when we do get away it is with family, grandchildren, food and fun.
