7 years of motherhood

Last Friday was Luna's 7th birthday. My little baby is 7 now. Time is just flying.

So at the last couple of weeks whenever she have been asked what does she want for her birthday, she said a puppy. Oooo lord... a puppy?! I can not take a puppy now, no way. These kids have to grow up a little bit before I can put a puppy on my list. And it's not that I don't like or don't want to have one. It's just a lot of work... and I have enough of that at this point :)

So, the solution was - a puppy birthday card :) well, at least to show some empathy to the untaken puppy.

 

I also like that this cricut puppy is Hula hooping, and Luna is a great Hula Hooper, so it was a perfect card for her, and she had a great birthday. 

love you Lulik ...

Have a happy day

 Anniversary Card

Fresh from the oven for IBSIC #4 challenge and for CR84FN Color Challenge #52.

April is my month, lots of reasons to celebrate in April. Start with my birthday, My daughter's birthday, my MIL's birthday and at the very end our Anniversary.
In our anniversaries we not only celebrate our marriage but also the existence of our growing nest. I was inspired by my own nest to show my love and appreciation for husband in our coming up anniversary.

I heart Babushkas!

Since I remember myself I love Nesting dolls. As a little girl I used to play with them at my grandparents and other older relatives homes. They where always there, in different colors and sizes. I loved their texture, I loved their smell, they kept me busy for hours then and they keep me busy now. Today, I love them for being modest and shy, they represent for me my childhood, my roots, my family, far away places, a culture that I have never really knew and the love for crafting and the value of handmade items.

Happily, my daughter and my friend's daughter carry our Babushka's love on and collecting these wooden critters with love.

Elinor, My friend Anat's daughter turned 9 last week, we picked this babushka for her card, to add another dimension to her collection :)

Happy Day :) Yayyyy.... - 2 reasons to be happy today!

Happy Day :) Yayyyy.... - 2 reasons to be happy today!

Reason #1 - I just finished my first card challenge :) I'm so happy... I keep moving on with my love to papers. A love that was neglected for so many years, and recently woke me up and fills me with all these feelings of creating again. I'm so happy and thankful for that!!!
Reason #2 - It's my birthday today!!! My own special day. This is the best gift for myself taking these few quiet hours, while everybody sleep, and craft!!!

So here is my birthday card for myself...

Have a Happy Day
