The last of the Mother's Day cards...

Figured I may as well share them! Not sure how much crafty time I'm going to end up getting this week after all, as we have a rather big plumbing problem, involving the sewage trap. I'll let your imaginations fill that one in - it's not disaster proportions yet, but it's NOT GOOD. Sunday didn't go as planned at all, but it was still a pretty good day with the family...and Connor at one point called Rob "Old Man Fruitcake," so really? If that was all that happened that day, it would have been awesome.

  1. You've been very busy with all these wonderful cards, Jessi! I'm attracted the last card with the glittered butterfly on the doily-it's so sweet!

    Good luck with the plumber!

    Hope you get the plumbing problem sorted. So not cool...

  8. Oh yes...... we have had our fair share of sewage problems since moving here two and half years ago!!! not the sort of home maintenance you relish spending your money on but kinda necessary :0)
    Another mini art gallery of cards for us.... Love all the quilling as always, particularly love the yellow daisy.
    Hope you get your problem sorted :0)

  10. So so gorgeous, every one of them! Ok, so you've made me feel guilty AND lazy! I haven't touched a stamp in almost a month!

    I did finally get a post up for Flashback Friday tonight.

    I just went back through all your posts for May from where I left off. You have been busy crafting. Wonderful creations!

    Sorry your mother's day didn't turn out as expected. I hope your week gets better as it closes out.

    Hope the plumbing problem gets fixed. We have a plumbing issue too....the washer rinse pipe keeps overflowing and running into our newly painted family room! Probably not as big an issue as yours, just annoying.

    I hope to get back in the craftin' spirit over the next few days. You've truly given me some inspiration. I finally bought a new quilling tool. Now I just have to do it!

    Hope tomorrow is a better day for you! Prayers to you!

  12. Jess, seriously I think you are on speed to crank these out! :-)))

    Old man fruitcake huh...that's a new one, and sounds just like something my short stack would blurt out. He has a sassy mouth on him. When it's not your kid, you can chuckle and I did but I am sure it wasn't funny at the time. We all can sympathize never knowing what is coming out of their mouths! Ugg...

    Plumbing issues....not fun! Sorry!

  14. If I could just bottle your card-making energy:) As always, the number and variety of cards you make astound me! From artsy to funny to cute to elegant and everything in between! You're amazing!

    Good luck with your sewer issues! Not fun, but needs to get done!
