Finally back to crafting....

I've been under the weather for the last few weeks, so I haven't had much crafting time.  I'm feeling better now and am back at it...  Tonight was especially fun as Operation Write Home has a new weekly "tv" show where they do a few segments and we can chat- http://www.ustream.tv/channel/owhtv#.  It made me feel like I was crafting with my friends.  :)  Join us on Thursday nights if you aren't busy!

Anyway, I've been working on some Spring cards- Mother's Day, flowers, spring colors.  I will be taking a batch of cards up to my local OWH shipper this weekend.  I ended up with 20 for February and have 8 so far for March.  February was a busy month at the beginning and then I was sick at the end, so I didn't get as many cards done as I would have liked.  Oh well, I will try to make up for it this month. :)

I found this fun cherry blossom sticker at Walmart.  I was inspired by a sketch in a Paper Craft Magazine for this card.
This paper and sticker is actually from a scrapbook page kit that I got at Michaels on clearance for $1.99.  I bought 2, so I can make 2 of each of the cards that I make from the kit.

These next cards are all made using paper from a Basic Grey Card of the Month kit that I ordered from Oh My Crafts- it is the Olivia line.  Some of the cards are copies of their samples in the kit and others are my own design.  I love the papers in this line!
 I'm not really fond of this card- I think it's just the stamped Mom that is throwing me off.


 The heart paper on this card is my favorite in the set.
