Some Cards from this afternoon

Meet Bunny :) I know this should have had a funny coffee sentiment on the front of it, but all of mine were too big... I am trying really hard to ink up and make something with every stamp I Had to Have... ( esp. since I now have a new (chef Diva RR) on the way to me) This card is 5X7 in real life.Bunny is from Rubber Romance, she stamped with Black ink on GP110. and colored with Prisma Pencils. the Sentiment (Savvy Stamps) is done with Versafine Vintage Sepia ink. the Swirl printed organdy ribbon i have no idea who makes it. The textured cardstocks are from Bazzill and the Printed Paper is from Paper Adventures "Aged Linen Rose" The tan cardstock was run through an D'Vine Swirls cuttlebug embossing folder. The Bunny layer is up on pop dots.
I bought these teeny tiny prima flowers in slim tins a long time ago and have hoarded them pretty much ever since because there are not very many of them inside the tins... ( the cream one with the stem is from Impress and they are more affordable because your not paying for a tin package)
This card is 5X7 in real life. I figure i will just keep making some mom and dad cards even if i end up with too many I know i can send them to Sandy for the troops to use. the All Holidays Sentiment is stamped with Fresco Chalk ink in Blue Grotto color on Very Vanilla cardstock then punched with an Pink size (mega?) scallop rectangle ( as are the pale blue shimmer ones behind it) the dark teal cardstock is unknown and the whole block is up on popdots. the cream organdy ribbon is from Offray and the teal shimmer is unknown.
I had a good afternoon and got my next color combo assignment done today. Whew! What a relief, I was really worried with the puppy coming home on tuesday that I may not have much time to play in the near future, so I am thinking to do a whole bunch of this kind of stuff "ahead" as much as possible this week and weekend. We've been trying to go through and pick up things near the floor level too. ( since she will be small enough to get into anything is my guess) have to get a puppy gate for the office hallway. things like that. pick up puppy food. Plan J's b-day (no sleep) night. or rather he's having a sleep over where I'm sure they wont be asleep till the next morning kind of a thing. Funny thing, the other day i got a text message from Tim while he was hunting. ( I had send one that said Duck Duck Goose??) asking if that was for dinner. He sent back Pig, Chicken or Beef. ( no one got a bird on Sunday) anyways if you close your phone before you hit reply (on mine) then it doesn't give you the option to type back it only gives you the option to "call them back" so i did.
I could hear the phone ring, I could hear Tim's voice. I even knew a couple of things he said to me, but not most of it. So eventually I started talking with and said ok just listen to me, hahaha. Going to really have to work on practicing that one though. It's really hard when you can hear the sound of the tires going down the road and it sounds kinda like air going through the line ( or maybe heavy breathing?) with the words too. I'm to the point now where i expect everything to make noise and sometimes I really wonder how you all deal with this, the noise is non-stop and some days at the very end of the day I feel like I would like nothing better then to just turn it all off. ( which if i give in to that takes me about 5 - 10 minutes to resent the quiet again and put the sound processor back on...) Funny thing, even with the noise's I've decided i really don't like to hear I miss them too when they are gone.
