Peony Wishes By Laurie Schmidlin
Have you seen the new stamp sets by Gina K Designs? These sets are Wise Old Owl, Peony Wishes, and the new Grand Greetings. You will be so inspired with more of Laurie’s beautiful card projects so be sure and click here to see them. Today I wanted to share this beautiful card Peony Wishes created by Laurie Schmidlin. The beautiful flowers really caught my eye. I love Laurie’s coloring and the vintage look that she captured so well. Adding some inked edges and lace for embellishment really gives a beautiful finishing touch to her card.
If you haven’t had the opportunity to play with some of Gina K’s stamps, I suggest you take the time to do so. She really has some fun and unique stamps. I give all you wonderful crafters a high five for sharing those smiles by sending handmade cards. The love that is put into a card is a treasured gift for life. I hope you have been inspired to break out your stamps. Be sure to stop by Just Give Me Stamps where you will find many wonderful ideas and techniques from Laurie Schmidlin.

Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Pops By Kelly Senyei
If you are a fan of the peanut butter and chocolate flavor combo (that covers just about everyone I know), you will love these. This is not only a summer treat but you can enjoy these all year long. Peanut Butter Frozen Yogurt Pops are creamy and delicious, and they are packed with healthy goodness, too. That makes them twice as fun!
Tangy yogurt, peanut butter, and three additional ingredients are whisked together into a light and creamy mix that is poured into popsicle molds and frozen until solid. Waiting for the popsicles to freeze is the hardest part of this recipe! Let’s pop on over to Just A Taste where Kelly has the ingredients and recipe waiting for you. This will be a fun treat to let your children jump in and help. I am so excited to have my little grandkids over this weekend to give this a try. I have to say I am looking forward to tasting one of them as well! 🙂
Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you have been inspired and found some great ideas for a fun crafting day! Be sure to visit the individual blogs I have shared with you to see more details on these fabulous projects. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
Hugs to all,
LeAnn
