We've had several weddings this summer & this is the card that I made for everyone..... seems purple is the choice of color for all of the weddings that we've been invited to lately!!

I love this fold...... and have done several cards with it.  This new die is soooooo COOL!!!  It is the new Oval Accents Bigz Clear die on pg. 192 of our main Stampin' UP! catalog.  Wooohoo!!

I have 3 different colors of the same wedding card layout to share today..... 
but the first one here is my favorite!

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday wishes today to Nathan!!  Can't believe that our son is 28 years old.  We are so proud of him & all of his accomplishments.  Hard to believe that he is all grown up & is a high school principal.  It seems like it was just yesterday that he was our little baby boy.

Below is a great picture of Nathan, Deke & Mark Sheetz.
They were at the races last week in Boone.
