We have another very talented guest this month: Sue McRae
Welcome!
Happy April Fools’ Day!
Mary is having a :1-Day “No Foolin’” sale!
50% Off coupon – “AprilFool” gives 50% off the highest priced item in the cart.
Coupon good April 1 only!This is a great time to get that stamp, die or set you have had your eye on.
Another easy challenge , emboss any kind you want , heat dry etc. I choose heat for my card.
I changed this one up many times, then I had some oval dies sitting on my desk and decided to make a shaker.
My mother always did fun things on April fools , for my dads lunch she would pack hard boiled eggs ....
only they were not hard boiled! (raw)
In the cool-aid picture she would have jello. You really had to be alert that day but it was always fun,
how she found the time with 9 kids!
Inspired by words and this is the quote for the challenge!
I used the stamp from Serendipity Stamps A Woman Is Like
Thanks for the visit!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful cards, Marybeth. Your shaker card is so pretty and I love the sentiment on your second card, so true! Thanks for entering the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Cathie <3
ReplyDeleteLove the shaker card with the oval die! The design on the 2nd card is awesome! Love the watercolor with the tea theme! Thanks so much for playing Simon Says Stamp Wednesday “Anything Goes” Challenge!
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet shaker, Marybeth ... and I love that gorgeous watercolour wash behind your fabulous sentiment ... that tea bag tail is perfect! Thanks so much for the shout out, my friend ... so delighted to have you playing along with us at Time Out! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards, Marybeth. And, I cannot believe that you have the actual quote for our challenge. This stamp is definitely going on my Serendipity wish list. Love how you have highlighted it with your water coloring. Thanks so much for playing along at Time Out this week.
ReplyDeleteNice cards Marybeth. I really love your "shared memories." For a short while I lived with my friend's family and her dad would put toothpicks in the salt shaker and salt in the sugar bowl. Funny 50+ years later it is still a fond memory of her father.
ReplyDeleteJust had to come tell you how much I love your strong woman card. What a great quote. What a fabulous design! Love the stories about your Mom and how the stories live on!
ReplyDeleteWonderful cards Marybeth! I love the quote you've used.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge
