You-nique.......PPA90....


It really is incredible how we are all the same......but oh so very different!  My daughter and I entertain ourselves when shopping with a guess who game. (Oh come on you must have some strange made up games in your family!) We hold up a piece of clothing or an accessory and ask "Who's this?"  And we always seem to know!  As a teacher I always reminded my kids to put their names on the back of their art projects but after a while I didn't need names - their personalities would shine through everything they created.  And I love seeing personalities come through paper crafting.  So glad you are all you-nique!

It's a sketch challenge this week at Pals Paper Arts!  I used Bold Blossom stamps in front of Sunny Garden DSP - along with two sassy Tempting Turquoise butterflies!

Linda this card is so pretty and the sentiment is a perfect match to your story. Too fun, and YES... we do that in my family too, and there's a little bit of that at work with certain 'shall we say... interesting" people. Hugs
Have a wonderful Easter.

Beautiful card. What I thought of was fresh and springy like other comments. ;-) Our family also plays a game very similar to yours. We also play it with comments or phrases people say. Oh, that sounds like something "_____" would say. {{Hugs}}

I don't think I can post some of the games our family plays (well, with three boyz, my poor daughter!!) but you KNOW they are fun and funny! Lovely card, Linda!

I love this card. When I close my eyes I see a summer field of long grasses and wild flowers. If you look close you can see the insects and butterflies flitting and dancing amongst the stems in the remnants of dusk's sunshine.
