Proud Momma Moment

Good morning, it is a bright and sunny wintry day today.  Yep I just checked the current temperature it's -9, brrrrr!  Sometimes I really feel the void of not having a daughter, you know someone to be your sidekick, your partner in crime, your little shadow.  But I do have two awesome little boys who love their momma to bits and like to spend time with their momma even if it means having to make cards together.  They actually like it and look forward to it, Sean had been bugging me for days to make a Christmas card for his teacher.  So this is what we created together, it looks awesome and Sean actually helped a whole bunch.  Sean stamped the trees and Dasher, he also cut the trees out with my very sharp scissors, I also let Sean use the very hot heat tool to emboss the trees and reindeer.  He looked at me funny when I told him to dump the jar of glittery embossing powder on the wet ink and asked "the whole thing"?  Sean also applied the adhesive and stuck all the bits down.  Sean was also allowed to play with mommy's prized possession, the Big Shot to die cut the scalloped circle, he was so thrilled to use his manly powers to turn the crank.  Good to know!  Next time I need a hundred pieces of something cut I know who to call!

Supplies...
Colours: Real Red, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip, Very Vanilla
Stamps: Patterned Pines, Dasher
Accessories: Iridescent Ice embossing powder, heat tool, Big Shot, Scallop Circle die, Christmas Jingle SS kit, 5/8" grosgrain ribbon in Old Olive

I hope you are having a super Saturday, the boys have invited friends over and for a couple hours this afternoon it is going to be crazy around here.  Why do I do these things to myself?  Because I love my boys, that's why!  E
