Flashback Friday 23.0!!!

Happy Friday and Welcome to the Flashback Friday 23.0 Blog Hop!

Simply Cute Creations is our oh-so-sweet Sponsor!!!

My name is Jennifer. I am married and have three beautiful children. My son is 13 and my daughters are 9 and 5. I love being a full time mom and I also run a small home based sign business. I love to be creative. I enjoy making cards, scrapbooking, mixed media and photography. My evenings are often spent crafting and my mornings consist of blogs and coffee. (=

I know, right?  I gotta have one!!!!

check out her shop and her blog!

The winner of Flashback Friday is Janice of 

Twin2u2 Designs

I spend my time in a beautiful suburb of the windy city of Chicago.  My partner Mike and I have been married for 14 years.  I am the mother of adult twins and I work full-time as a Financial Admin for a large scientific laboratory.

My crafty life started, when as a 9 year old, a neighbor taught me to crochet, which I still do today and I have tried everything from needle-point to picture framing.   Six years ago I was introduced to the wonderful world of card making by a co-worker and I was hooked! I don't have a particular style as I love a variety of looks. If I had to choose a favorite technique it would be distressing and embossing and I love lots of color (although I don't color very well ... lol).  It is most amazing to have so much inspiration and support thru this thing called blogging and I am most grateful to Amy for the opportunity to host Flashback Friday 23.0!

The Flashback Friday 23.0 challenge that Janice picked is:

First card with a butterfly or butterflies...

I'm so excited to introduce you to my Flashback Friday 22.0 winner:

Miriam

I live in Arlington, VA with my husband Andrew and 4 1/2 and 1 1/2 year old daughters Ellie and Carina.  I have a full-time job working for the government, and sneak off to craft after the girls are in bed.  I've been crafting my whole life:  from latch-hook kits, cross stitch kits, and any other crafty pursuit that would keep me busy when I was a kid, to crocheting and scrapbooking in more recent years.  Last year I was introduced to clear stamps and was hooked.  (My arsenal now even includes some of those red rubber ones, but the clear kind are my favorite.)  I started blogging last June, rather tentatively, but am so glad that I did.  The creative blogging community is AMAZING!  There's so much inspiration, encouragement, and fun to be had!  I've quickly become addicted to making cards, a great use for all my scraps, and a great way to try new techniques and products.  

Miriam's blog:  Sooner Rather than Later

So are you curious what the challenge is?!!!


First project using a die cut!
