Happy Tuesday!
It's hard to believe that it has been a week since I last posted. I am plugging along with my packing, but honestly I am getting to the point where I want to be done. With 14 years in this house and 25 years of stuff there is so much that will not fit into our new home. However, now is not the time to purge that is safer to do at the other end. Next week I will start packing up my craft room, that is probably going to be the biggest undertaking. The key will be to do it without getting distracted!
It's time for a new Cue Card at CASology!
This week the cue word is:
I don't know about you but I certainly could use a few of these on hand. I always have the best intentions, but I struggle with the execution. My repeat is the "Happy"!
This card is also my DT card for the Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge - Celebrate!

I am also submitting this to the Lawnscapping Sparkle and Shine Challenge for the gold Stickles on his hat!
Yesterday my daughter turned 18, amazing how quickly these past 18 years have gone. I posted this photo on Facebook yesterday after sorting through 12 years of digital photos trying to narrow it down to only 9. What I re-discovered was how many things she was involved with in her childhood. There was 11 years of ballet, tap and jazz, 12 years of soccer, lacrosse, field hockey, school plays, skiing, arts camp, leadership camp and yes dirt bike riding. I am excited for her as she heads off to university this fall and I hope that she continues to get involved once she's there.
I gave her the card that I made for her during the Essentials by Ellen June Pin-Sights Challenge and she loved it because apparently I am her person too!
Have a great day!

Oh, Tracey. ;-) I love the photos of your sweet girl, and the obvious love the two of you share for each other. What a beautiful young woman she is! Best wishes to her as she embarks on the next phase of life, and best wishes to you as you embark on yours. ((hugs)) Your card is awesome - love it!

What a happy little turtle! So carefree on his way to wishing a belated birthday! Your pictures of your sweet daughter really capture a happy and active childhood. I'm sure there are mixed emotions about her turning 18. So much is going on in your life right now, but there will be an end to the moving, that one's certain.

Seems like I'm always forgetting birthdays so cards like this are a definite must in the old stash! I love the repeating sentiment and the glittery hat on the turtle. So cute!
*Sigh* They do grow up fast, don't they?! One of my granddaughters will be a senior in high school this fall. Don't know where that time went. Thanks for sharing the collage of photos; she's a doll, and I'm sure she'll do well at University. Your card is adorable. Love that little turtle with his sparkly party hat. I think I need one of those! Love it! Moving isn't easy, but take a deep breath, you can get it done to your satisfaction. Can't wait to see your new craft room all set up! Bev
This card is so cute and sweet! Well done on CASing! And your little "birdie" is certainly ready to FLY away! I am sure you are so proud of her and have mixed feelings about her leaving home now...time flies!
Super cute card Tracey. Love the darling turtle with the festive hat. Sweet pictures of your daughter. :)

Sorry to be so late...I love your Brooklyn photo collage, so sweet and so beautiful! What a doll she is. And your card with that adorable turtle is as precious as can be...just love it and it reminds me that I have that set and need to use it too! As always, thank you for the inspiration.
Adorable card! Love the repeat sentiment :)
Sniff* It must be bittersweet to see your little girl all grown up. But if she's anything like her mom, she's got to be one amazing person. Question: How do you line up your words so perfectly!?! I am JEALOUS of your ability!
I should have a truckload of these cards!!! Those pics of your daughter make me teary. Love your collage of her. what a gorgeous girl. I can certainly see how the years fly by! Sobering!! On another note, good luck with all the unpacking...!!!
