A Little Bit of This ...A Little Bit of That

Where does the time go?

It seems that with Easter and Confirmation and then Mother's Day the time has flown by... I haven't been on my blog for so long. Today I'm going to post several cards and projects that have kept me busy over the past three or four weeks.

I used the Confirmation of Faith napkin as an inspiration to make the tent decorations for each of the tables. Sarah's symbol is the shell so I incorporated the theme into the table decorations.

I printed the poem "Footprints" on Vellum and attached to both sides the card stock.

I saw on another Blog the idea of using the Build a Blossom punch to create sea shells using card stock. You can see in one of the shells I placed a pearl bead inside each shell.

I made napkin holders using the Island Floral Die with the Big Shot.

I used coordinating colors of card stock. Whisper White, Daffodil Delight, Tempting Turquoise, Pretty In Pink, Wild Wasabi, and Certainly Celery. I used Glimmer Brads for the centers.

Pam and Sarah's older sister, Anna made French Pastries(small cakes 2" x 3" in different shapes) decorated with sea shell decorations made out of white chocolate with some shells tinted  blue. No pictures of these, I was too busy visiting.

We had a lovely luncheon of salads, and a variety of delicious sandwiches of ham, beef, turkey and salami served on buns.

What a special day for Sarah and the rest of the family.
