What's not to love about Friday, right? It's my most favorite day of the week.
So check this out, last weekend when we got home from Cascade, my little one had tummy issues - she threw up in the morning before the ride home. So we came home and Rob and D went out for the afternoon and little Miss K stayed home with me and just chilled. She was awfully quiet in her room and I thought she was asleep and then I heard a noise. So I walked down the hall and there she was on her floor coloring this plant - for me, she said. So sweet ♥ I talked her in to this being a great birthday present for her grandma though. So it's now for grandma. We brought it to my craft table and stamped a little Studio G Series 30 goodness in the center of the flower....

...and then it was her idea to embellish the flower pot. For some reason she thought the watermelon Printed Skittles would be perfect for the top (I'm thinking her thought process was to match) and then the pretty spring green Glittered Skittles on the bottom. The watermelon Skittles are only $1 and the Glittered Skittles come in a bigger pack for $2.50 - - this little gift cost a $1 for the wood art, .33 for the Printed Skittles, .50 for the Glittered Skittles and .5o for the ribbon = $2.33; but the experience of making something with my little girl, again, is priceless.
And just so that I'm not replaced on the Pez-A-Doodle DT by my daughter, I made a bright Father's Day card using more Studio G Series 30 goodness - Series 30 is jam-packed with all occasion and multiple holiday goodness. I broke a cardinal rule of masculine cardmaking though and that is no ribbon. Ask me if I care? *giggles*
Be sure to check out Digiments - today is the last day of sneak peeks before the big release tomorrow. Big release as in 30 Digiments big!
Oh - and if you want to win some blog candy, my friend Laura has a cute lil' stamp set on her blog - check it out HERE.
Have a fab Friday!

Awwww....tell DD I would be thrilled if my DD gave me something like that...I love when they make me things like that, I'm such a sentimental sucker when it comes to my DDs. And she did a great job coloring & embellishing too...I"m jealous that she had the watermelon skittles...I want the ladaybugs LOL
WOW! Tell your Daughter she did an AMAZING job on the flower pot. And, I love your card as well. Who cares if it has ribbon on it; I don't think any man is going to care...LOL!
Thanks for your well wishes for the weekend. We are taking off for camping right after work tonight, to the day can't go fast enough.
Oh, and thank you so much for plugging my blog candy; REALLY appreciate it.
Have a GREAT weekend!
Wow! Your daughter's gift is amazing. I love your card too. I put ribbon on men cards too. I think the watermelon skitlles are a perfect touch.
Absolutely love it Michelle. What paper is that? I need it!!!
That is a great Father's day card. I think the no ribbon rule should just go out the door sometimes. Silly boys, they can take what we make!
And your daughter's flower is fabulous! I laughed because yesterday my daughter made me a card, too, so I had to share it today. Great minds must be thinking alike on Friday!
I did not know that no ribbon was a rule for a man card. Is there a rule book LOL
I love your girls creation. Just a year ago my neice would sit down and make things with me but now that she graduated kindergarten, she is too grow up LOL.
What a sweet flower pot your daughter made!
K is definitely following in your footsteps. The flower is wonderful, and your mom is going to love it.
Love your Father's Day card, ribbon and all.
